Cowboys vs Bears game blog

[Chris]

Tonight we find out how good we really are!
Go Cowboys! :clap

[SAtown]

Good Sunday Night game. SNF > MNF for the past 2 years

[Chris]

Madden is my hero but who is calling this game?

[Chris]

Madden has a hard on for Romo. :lol

[SAtown]

Madden/Michaels should be calling the game as usual

[Chris]

Time to put Gross man on his ass !

[Chris]

Thank god they got rid of Pink! :lol

[SAtown]

Yeah, but they could've changed the intro song also. It's way too cheesy

[Chris]

Terrence Newman is back! :elephant

[Chris]

Who's the guy who comes in and changes the play to a T.O. touchdown? Looked like Willy Hung. :lol

[Chris]

I disagree with this no kick to Hester thing. Kick it to the man. Let you special teams make a play. Doing otherwise shows a lack of confidence in your team.

[Chris]

nice 3 and out for the boy's d

[SAtown]

Dallas can't get shit going offensively.

[Chris]

Penalties can really kill a team. Tipped balls by your WR's doesn't help much either.

[scott]

Fucking Flozell is killing us. Put Julius Jones at LT, I bet it would be an improvement. Christ.

[Chris]

Anthony fucking Henry. 3 picks for the year!!!! :smokin

[SAtown]

Nice pick. I almost forgot Grossman blows dick

[Chris]

bs call. grr

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

That INT is on Moose, not Grossman.

[scott]

How is that not running into the kicker? Defender didn't touch the ball but got lots of Mat McBriar.

[kskonn]

man they call a questionable call on witten and then give the bears a break on the running into the kicker call. not sure about this.

[kskonn]

How is that not running into the kicker? Defender didn't touch the ball but got lots of Mat McBriar.


the ref gave the signal that the ball was tipped. no way it goes that far if it is tipped.

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

You really want to re-kick to Hester?

[Viva Las Espuelas]

"he muffed it"

i almost pissed my pants on that one. i hope someone uploads the torrent.

[kskonn]

You really want to re-kick to Hester?
no, just pointing out the descepencies in the calls. just like that phantom offensive pass interfence on TO.

[Chris]

Blatant pass interference on Crayton. The DB is holding one of his arms! :madrun

[scott]

and now the non-call on the PI on Crayton. Good to see Dallas tied given 4 bad calls thus far.

[Chris]

lol @ the scores being in spanish

[kskonn]

yea it is somewhat rare to see this typ of officiating in the NFL, not sure what is going on.

[Chris]

yea it is somewhat rare to see this typ of officiating in the NFL, not sure what is going on.

It's called homecookin' referees.

[kskonn]

ware making an impact, sack and then a really good stop on the run. lets get this back and make it 10-3

[scott]

Patrick Crayton, you win the Biggest Asshole of the Day award

[samikeyp]

Goddammit Crayton.

Does Romo need to hand you the fucking ball?

Then a blocked FG....cue the circus music. :bang

[kskonn]

this is insane. That was the easiest catch and nfl receiver will ever make, ever.

[peewee's lovechild]

Fucking Crayton!!!

Where's Hurd??

We need Glenn!!

[kskonn]

should be 10-3 with the boys getting the ball back at half, now 3-3 with the bears driving. damnit.

[sprrs]

:pctoss

[kskonn]

Fucking Crayton!!!

Where's Hurd??

We need Glenn!!

Not wide open in the end zone like crayton was.

[kskonn]

and berrian returned the favor.

[Condemned 2 HelLA]

Bears trying to take a play from the LSU playbook there or something?!?!

[scott]

wow... this officiating is pathetic.

[sprrs]

Cowboys should have had one more play.... :bang

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

That's not the officials fault. It's the fault of the guys in the replay booth...

Don't understand why they wouldn't review a clock issue...

[J.T.]

"he muffed it"

i almost pissed my pants on that one. i hope someone uploads the torrent.

You know that's what they call it

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

You can't review a clock issue?

That's retarded.

[scott]

You can't review a clock issue?

That's retarded.

Did the door just get opened up for SuperHomeCooking in the NFL? That is absurd that the home team clock operator can run 3 seconds off the clock without any recourse.

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

It wasn't the clock guy's fault. The referee signaled to keep the clock running before he waved his arms to stop the clock.

Of course, by that time the clock read all zeros...

[Vinnie_Johnson]

This game is Fixed.

[scott]

Well, then it's the refs fault (who you previously relieved of blame). I would think the ref should know which down it is... you don't continue to run the clock after a failed 4th down play.

But better yet... it is everyone involved with that play's fault. Head Umpire, Clock Man, Replay Official

That was before I went back and looked at it.

Plus, I didn't know they can't go back and check the clock upstairs.


Would it make you feel better to know that Ron Winter is a professor at a college less than two hours away from Chicago?

These refs seems like the came from the NBA.

Good thing we have Romo on our side.

[midgetonadonkey]

Roy WIlliams is an amazing tackler.

[scott]

It is truly unbelievable how badly Roy Williams sucks

[kskonn]

roy wiliams is the biggest whole in our secondary tonight, first he gives up that play to clark and then he bumps him like he thinks he is so strong just bumping him will cause him to crumple to the field. I can't believe I used to defend this guy.

[dirk4mvp]

Grooooosmmaaaann

[StylisticS]

I am sick and tired of Roy Williams. :rolleyes

[kskonn]

sam hurd just knocked that fucker out.

[scott]

MARION THE BARBARIAN!!!!!

I think Romo has proved he can do it against a top defense...

[kskonn]

yea and better yet, I had barber and romo on my fantasy team, 12 points just like that.

[scott]

Way to go Cedric!!! Just like the college days!

[midgetonadonkey]

I don't think there is enough visual evidence to overturn this.

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

Yeah, but it looks like he was down.

Call should stand.

[kskonn]

yea looks like the Bears could get screwed on this play, and I am ok with that.

[scott]

Nail in the coffin... NOW.

[kskonn]

man if the cowboys can put it in and go up 24-10 they would be well in control of this game.

[peewee's lovechild]

They called the horse collar on Williams but they wont call it when da Bears do it??

Home fucking cooking.

[peewee's lovechild]

Juice running like a mad man, to bad it has to go back.

[peewee's lovechild]

Tony Romo is playing pretty damn good today.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

At least we'll get a field goal.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

This Folk guy is a pretty good kicker. He's already done more than any kicker we've had in the last 3 years.

[Findog]

two-possession game

[samikeyp]

Fucking Flozell Adams. :bang

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Fuck yea! Anthony Henry!

[samikeyp]

Hell yea baby!

Now let's put this fucker away.

[Findog]

Church

[scott]

The NFC has been served notice. Dallas is the team to beat.

[samikeyp]

Damn.

The "Griese" chant has begun.

[tlongII]

The Cowboys look good. Of course Rex Grossman is one of the worst starting QB's I've ever seen.

[peewee's lovechild]

I'm calling it.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Damn.

The "Griese" chant has begun.
I know that's probably the thing to do but to hear it from every single fan in the entire stadium is just plain mean.

[ducks]

Damn.

The "Griese" chant has begun.
about time

[tlongII]

The NFC has been served notice. Dallas is the team to beat.

Seahawks

[peewee's lovechild]

I know that's probably the thing to do but to hear it from every single fan in the entire stadium is just plain mean.

Rex just plain sucks.

[peewee's lovechild]

This game is done.

We've passed the "test".

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Rex just plain sucks.
At least we agree on that.

[samikeyp]

I know that's probably the thing to do but to hear it from every single fan in the entire stadium is just plain mean.

Football is a mean game.

[peewee's lovechild]

Shehawks

Yeah, whatever.

[samikeyp]

They are all over Hester tonight.

[samikeyp]

Grossman is gonna get so much shit tomorrow, Donovan McNabb will think its too much. :)

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

We own Hester. :hat

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Grossman is gonna get so much shit tomorrow, Donovan McNabb will think its too much. :)
:lol

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Grossman still in.

[Tippecanoe]

wow, i cannot believe how badly i have been underestimating these dallas cowboys. they are gonna be a force to be reckoned with. that cowboys vs patriots matchup in week 6 is gonna be a hell of a game.

[samikeyp]

wow, i cannot believe how badly i have been underestimating these dallas cowboys. they are gonna be a force to be reckoned with. that cowboys vs patriots matchup in week 6 is gonna be a hell of a game.

That game worries me because historically Moss has owned Dallas.

[peewee's lovechild]

Grossman is gonna get so much shit tomorrow, Donovan McNabb will think its too much. :)

:lol :lol :lol

Rex has a black uncle and he can use Donnie's "they criticize me because I'm black" excuse.

[samikeyp]

Shit Dallas...don't get soft on D now.

[peewee's lovechild]

wow, i cannot believe how badly i have been underestimating these dallas cowboys. they are gonna be a force to be reckoned with. that cowboys vs patriots matchup in week 6 is gonna be a hell of a game.

Now THATS gonna be a true test.

[samikeyp]

Anthony Spencer!

Way to be rook!!!!

[samikeyp]

12 penalties on Dallas.....27-10 is good, 12 penalties is not.

[peewee's lovechild]

The defense looked alot better today too. Granted it was against Rex, but they looked alot better.

[peewee's lovechild]

12 penalties on Dallas.....27-10 is good, 12 penalties is not.

The penalties give me heartburn.

They NEED to fix that.

[samikeyp]

True...the penalties worry me as well.

7 in week 1, 11 last week and already 12 tonight.

[samikeyp]

Marion the Barbarian.

[peewee's lovechild]

Horse Collar!!!!!!!!!!

[peewee's lovechild]

Marion The Barbarian!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[samikeyp]

Again...the Barbarian.


Chicago is spent.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Damn it I'm gonna lose my bet. Fucking Dallas offense. :bang

[peewee's lovechild]

Again...the Barbarian.


Chicago is spent.

We tired the best defense in the NFC.
We've arrived.

[scott]

Chicago should take pride in holding us to only 34 points (thanks again for that, Crayton)

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Chicago should take pride in holding us to only 34 points (thanks again for that, Crayton)
:lol

[scott]

Maybe I spoke too soon... offense back on the field!

[peewee's lovechild]

Roy Williams made up for all his douchebagging mistakes!!!!!!!!!

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Cue the Griese chants.

[samikeyp]

Hahahaha!

Roy Williams finally does something right.

[samikeyp]

Maybe I spoke too soon... offense back on the field!

:lol

[samikeyp]

Go deep!! :lmao

[scott]

Brad Johnson is in the game, and our lead is officially not safe.

[ducks]

bears are spent they are tired and hurt

[samikeyp]

Maybe 5-0 going into the N.E.game?

I think its possible.

[peewee's lovechild]

Maybe 5-0 going into the N.E.game?

Dammit. These Cowboys are the real deal in the NFC. That, and Grossman is trash.

[peewee's lovechild]

I don't want to think about N.E. just yet.

[samikeyp]

"Let's not start sucking each others dicks just yet."

:lmao true.

That is why I used the words "maybe" and "possible"

gotta go week to week.

[samikeyp]

:lmao @ Chris!

Well done!

[scott]

Lets worry about the Rams right now... thinking about NE can wait.

[peewee's lovechild]

We are looking good, though.

[samikeyp]

I like this 3-0 stuff....let's see if we can make it 4-0 next week.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Come on now. First we gotta think about St. Louis and Buffalo. Sure they got blown out by Tampa and New England (a given) but still. :)

[samikeyp]

I agree....my point is the potential is there, provided they take care of business week to week.

Next up, the Rams.

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

Three down. Don't let up until February.

[T Park]

Uh, its a gimme game next week.

Romo will be sitting and resting by the third quarter.

The Rams right now, embarass me and are a joke.

[peewee's lovechild]

Come on now. First we gotta think about St. Louis and Buffalo. Sure they got blown out by Tampa and New England (a given) but still. :)

That's what I was saying.

Steven Jackson is going to want to make a statement against the team that passed him up, and Buffalo has a pretty good defense.

I'm confident, but let's take it one week at a time.
No need to get cocky.

[Tippecanoe]

Maybe 5-0 going into the N.E.game?

I think its possible.

St. Louis (0-3) and Buffalo (0-3)

you guys better be 5-0 going into NE

[samikeyp]

Three down. Don't let up until February.

agreed.


Steven Jackson is going to want to make a statement against the team that passed him up, and Buffalo has a pretty good defense.

Good point...he is due for a big game.

[peewee's lovechild]

I'm glad that Tank gave us all the inside information on the Bears' defense.

[samikeyp]

St. Louis (0-3) and Buffalo (0-3)

you guys better be 5-0 going into NE

but I do see scott's (and others) points....anything can happen in the NFL.

One game at a time.

[peewee's lovechild]

I'm out boys, gotta get some shut eye for work tomorrow.

Good game.

Let's just hope it continues.

[samikeyp]

me too.

Peace.

[Chris]

Both teams played hard.

he may want to, but the third string offensive line wont let him.

Chalk up 4-0 right now.

Brad Johnson will be playing QB for almost the whole second half.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

I'm glad that Tank gave us all the inside information on the Bears' defense.
:tu

[kskonn]

That game worries me because historically Moss has owned Dallas.


I agree but in all seriousness we did not have the corners we have now, more specifically we did not have Henry. Henry was brought in specifically to line up against big receivers. We will see if he can match up with the Best. Also Ken Hamlin will be critical, and from what I have seen he is doing a good job of staying over the top. I think the hard part against new england will be preventing Brady from getting it to all the other guys. Pressure will be key.

[Chris]

That would be a wonderful, wonderful thing.

[T Park]

4 u guys it will be :lol

I think the Rams are in McFadden mode.

im expecting dallas to double moss. wes welker's performance and marion barber vs pats defense will decide the winner. that is gonna be a great game. i cant wait.

[kskonn]

I completely agree... I would probably add Witten into that mix as game changers against the Pats. If he can get started early he forces the entire defense to adjust.

[Obstructed_View]

So how good would Roy Williams be if someone taught him how to tackle?

[BradLohaus]

Wow, Dallas would have put up close to 50 if Crayton catches that TD and the refs weren't so flag happy. Credit Jason Garrett for great play calling. He saw that the running game wasn't going so well, but the Bears couldn't cover TO on the crossing routes, so that's all he called. That opened up the other guys and the running game.

Also: Whitten can't be covered by a LB, and the TO in the backfield formation worked to perfection. With the adjustments he made after halftime, this game really showed that Garrett is a great play caller.

The Ref's Sucked Last Night

I Saw At Least 7 Blown Calls Against The Cowboys

[samikeyp]

It's a good day at work today. My sales manager who is in the office across from me is from Chicago and is a Bears fan. :)

:lol

That must be fun as hell.

I'm just waiting for Midge to come in so I can make fun of his Texans-loving, Cowboy-hating ass.

[samikeyp]

I'm just waiting for Midge to come in so I can make fun of his Texans-loving, Cowboy-hating ass.

Midge is going to avoid you like Ashbeeigh avoids feminine hygiene products.

[midgetonadonkey]

Midge is going to avoid you like Ashbeeigh avoids feminine hygiene products.

That's funny.

I still hate the Cowboys and I always will. But they did play really well. The offense is 1000x better than I thought they would be. Good win against a good defense.

I still hate the fucks though.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

:lol

The Ref's Sucked Last Night

I Saw At Least 7 Blown Calls Against The Cowboys
I've never seen a non-FIBA basketball game with that many bad calls, and that game was slightly above average on the NFL shittycallometer.

And it's amazing that, instead of whining, complaining, losing focus and blaming someone else, they got it together, focused on what they needed to do and overcame it. There are basketball teams in Arizona that could learn a lesson from that.

[peewee's lovechild]

There are basketball teams in Arizona that could learn a lesson from that.

Stern should send the team a copy with a post-it saying "this is how a REAL team handles adversity."

[samikeyp]

That must be fun as hell.

It was. :)
