Week 17 Game Thread

[Ed Hillel]

Can Dallas put Romo in to throw the big INT?

 

[Average Reds]

God I hate watching the Eagles play D.

 

[Ed Hillel]

That's no intentional grounding????

 
Foles has thrown like 3 straight into the ground, so I don't think it's really a rule in this game.

 

[Grimace-HS]

Going for it was trivial but lol at that sneak call. Spread em out at least a little if you are doing that

I can see this, or at least rolling out to open up the field a bit to give the option of a QB run or open receiver.  The play call with the box loaded looked bad from the start.
 
The whole thing was confusing as I was still puzzled at the quinoa (i.e, queen-oh) grill contraption.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Edelman!

 

[Oil Can Dan]

4 down territory.

Especially when they ran the same play during the timeout play.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Gotta go for this.

 

[Dahabenzapple2]

Not a tough call, Al

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Shut the fuck up, Al Michaels.

 

[ypioca]

How is this a tough call?

 

[Oil Can Dan]

HUGE.

 

[DanoooME]

LOL, they'd have been better off using Randy Orton at QB

 

[Dahabenzapple2]

I almost feel bad for the Cowboys

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Jesus Christ, one of these teams should just forfeit and get the better draft pick.

 

[Ed Hillel]

That wasn't going anywhere anyway. Just hand it up the middle to your bruiser. UNbelievable.

 

[shawnrbu]

What's Bailey's range?

 

[ypioca]

Well, it's a tough call if you're gonna call some stupid shit like that, I guess.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Any time you have a chance to run Kyle Orton on a bootleg on 4th and 1, you have to do it.

 

[Greg29fan]

What's Bailey's range?

 
55

 

[LondonSox]

Play calling on 4th down and short is so bad.

 

[ypioca]

Samuel L. Jackson sure is cashing in on his bad motherfucker rep.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Any time you have a chance to run Kyle Orton on a bootleg on 4th and 1, you have to do it.

 
You have Murray and McCoy and these teams run their QBs in critical moments???

 

[Dahabenzapple2]

Well, it's a tough call if you're gonna call some stupid shit like that, I guess.

Only thing missing was the timeout call that the incompetent coaches sometimes take before 4th down plays

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

That wasn't going anywhere anyway. Just hand it up the middle to your bruiser. UNbelievable.

Madness, though it is easy to criticize when Brady is like 1000 for 1000 sneaking from that distance.

 

[SeoulSoxFan]

Huge stop by the Eagooooles

 

[Greg29fan]

That wasn't going anywhere anyway. Just hand it up the middle to your bruiser. UNbelievable.

 
Murray was wide open for a first plus.  Barwin made a great play

 

[Oil Can Dan]

4 down territory again - run it again plz.

 

[budcrew08]

Only good thing here is that even if Philly scores, it's still a one score game.

 

[E5 Yaz]

This feels like the season-ending drive for the Cowboys

 
Felger?

 

[Al Zarilla]

Like a hot knife through room temp butter since the failed 4th attempt by Dallas.

 

[Average Reds]

It really is dog track time for Michaels, isn't it?

 

[mascho]

Only good thing here is that even if Philly scores, it's still a one score game.

 
Unless Kelly is nutty and goes for two....

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Go for 2, sluts.

 

[DannyHeep]

Setting up the fumbled snap for the two pointer.

 

[Al Zarilla]

And some would say Dallas gave up after the failed  fourth.

 

[budcrew08]

There had better be some fight left in these motherfuckers

 

[Dahabenzapple2]

And some would say Dallas gave up after the failed  fourth.

We will see right after the commercial

 

[Oil Can Dan]

That wast the anti-Andy Reid drive.

 

[Ed Hillel]

 
Murray was wide open for a first plus.  Barwin made a great play

 
Murray was blanketed and probably would have lost 3 yards.

 

[Greg29fan]

 
Murray was blanketed and probably would have lost 3 yards.

 
He was not Ed.  Not even remotely.

 

[Dahabenzapple2]

That wast the anti-Andy Reid drive.

Yes - instead of the old slow motion trying not to lose drive

 

[LondonSox]

The Eagles in hurry up running like this is fucking awesome.
I think they have the best running attack in the league. Stud main guy but two really very good backups, the line is fast athletic and very good run blocking. The te are good blocking and receiving too.

It's hard to stop all game.

 

[mikeford]

that TD feels like the game
 
cant see Dallas scoring another TD

 

[Ed Hillel]

 
He was not Ed.  Not even remotely.

 
Go watch again. 59 had him lined up had the ball gotten there. He wasn't getting that first down.

 

[LondonSox]

that TD feels like the game

And they need to this drive. The Eagles just showed they can run a lot of time off the clock and be aggressive running the ball.

 

[Greg29fan]

Murray and the O Line have been pretty lousy running the ball in the second half.  I don't think 4th and 1 was a gimme with a run.

 

[mascho]

Um, that was a fantastic throw too.

 

[Dogman]

Nice throw

 

[LondonSox]

The Cowboys winning both trenches (that last drive aside) is a huge huge shock to me
