What's up with the QB fumbles in the Dallas/Arizona game
Swapping back and forth??

Sloppy...

Sloppy isn't the word. This game is going horrible wrong for both teams. Lets hope the second half is just a wee bit better.

It was bound to happen. How many teams go 0-16? Someone has to be 'the one' to lose to a team they aren't supposed to lose to. I was talkin' to a guy at work and I said I thought it was very unlikely that the skins go 3-0 against the Rams, Bengals, and Browns even though those teams only had 1 win between them (now 2 obviously). The 'skins just played horribly though. The fumbles, the poor special teams play, ugh...


Lethal

But I would rather loose to a team that has been winning and beating the teams that everyone else is beating. With the way the skins have been playing this should of been a win for them.
 
Palmer will come around sooner or later..Detroit is an organization in turmoil.Will take several years to undo the damage of the Millen Era..

Palmer didn't play... the QB was Fitzpatrick today... same result
I'm assuming that Palmer is hurt and not benched,
but since I don't keep up with the Bungles I'm not certain

Woof, Woof - Dawg

I know he didn't play..He was out with an elbow injury. I'd take him and the Bungles to win over Detroit's Kittens..Their fans will be wishing for Kitna to come back. He isn't amazing, but he doesn't run out of bounds in the endzone.
 
What the...?

I'm watching the Cowboys and Cardinals game... what the hell is going on?

It is clear to me that the NFL refs have gone from some of the best in all of sports to some of the worst. They have no idea what to do in strange situations. Plus they whistle way too quickly. Grrr.

EDIT: The Cowboys just made a kick -- after they missed it -- because the Cards coach did one of those dumbassed timeouts at the last second. I predict the Cowboys will win. It always happens.
 
Way to go Zona coach for calling the TO before the blocked FG..And a great display of matador tackling by the Arizona D on the Barber TD run...The extra five yards on the penalty helped the FG...How do you penalize for an injured player:confused:

EDIT::WOW! what a whacky ending..Wisenhunt should get on his knees and give thanks for the win..Had they lost,woulda been ugly there.


How soon before TO explodes or pops off???

Of if the player was down, why wasn't that an injury time out and then have 11 seconds on the clock?

Either way, at least the Cowboys lost. :D

LMFAO, all that drama at the end of regulation to lose on the first drive with inept offense...Post game press conferences should be fun...
 
Cowboys vs Cards.. What a game. Damn to loose with a blocked kick. UGHHHHHHHH

Wonder what T.O. will have to say about this one?

it was a crazy game (not going to call it great).

in OT i saw romo's 3rd down incomplete, thought okay, punt, then warner will have it, i flip away, then flip back and see replays of the blocked punt.

this was a great win, but as a cardinals fan, in regards to the playoffs, i'll believe it when i see it. i can't believe that we might actually win the incredibly weak nfc west
 
Random Thoughts

Random thoughts...

01. Why did SD keep LT instead of Turner?
02. Why keep giving LT the ball? I can get more yards per carry than he can.
03. Why doesn't SD use powder blue jerseys all the time? They look sharp.
04. If SD is going to use the throw-back blues, why not do it right and put the numbers on the side of the helmets?
05. Is it just me or does anyone else think that Bell-e-cheat is a "genius" only when he has Brady on the field? Without him he is just a typical coach?
06. Bell-e-cheat is only good when he has Brady on the field or Parcell's telling him what to do?
07. Did anyone else notice that Brian Billick must of made 20 mistakes during his broadcast this morning?
08. Did Vegas lose this weekend? I think it was 50/50 on the favorites.
09. Who the hell is the best in the NFL? I'm completely lost now.
10. Did the Cowboys give Barber the ball 60 times?! He WAS their offense today!
11. Do the NFL refs seem to be getting worse and more confused as the season goes on?
12. Is it just me or is Tony Romo sloppy and overrated?
13. Is Kurt Warner underrated? He go squished 30 times today but kept fighting.
14. Why does Troy Aikman talk like Yoda? "They run well, the Dallas Cowboys, they get 5 years each time, per carry."
15. Does anyone else wonder why the hell Madden sits in an RV for 4 days instead of having someone drug him and put him on a 4 hours plane trip?
 
cards/cowboys game was a lot of fun to watch... cards came through in the clutch. and i used to think nfl was boring compared to college haha

Another horrible call this week. The dreaded "tuck rule" reared it's ugly head again.

Tony Romo makes a passing motion where he obviously tucks the ball back in, fumbles, and Arizona recoverers for the TD.

It's a good thing Arizona won the game, because they got screwed on that call.

Is it just me, or does Tony Romo have a ton of screw ups like the one I mentioned above, and no one seems to mention it? Maybe I'm just overly sensitive because a buddy of mine is always telling me he is the best quarterback in the league, better than Brady, Manning, Brees, etc, etc.

Well, they really screwed the pooch on this one. Romo tried to throw and then decided not to... but the ball came out when it or he was hit which means it was a fumble and not inertia or gravity or something.

That rule should be burned at the stake.

Romo has a lot of screw ups but typically he's lucky enough that nothing majority bad comes of it. Like the two fumbles he had against the 'Cards that were ruled as not being fumbles. Romo tossed at least one pick in his last 8 or 9 games leading up to the 'Cards game and even though he didn't toss a pick yesterday his lost fumble keeps his turnover streak alive. I also think TO whining for the ball is slowly snowballing behind the scenes as well. How many times has a ball been forced TO's way the past 3 or 4 games just to appease him? Like during the 'Skins game a couple weeks ago when they went to him three straight times late in the game and all three times Carlos Rodgers defended the pass? TO then complains about not getting the ball yet he was thrown to 17 times for 7 catches.

It's going to be an interesting week in Dallas,as far as the team goes.That locker room has to be tight after that game. For Romo,he's got a lot of hype behind him.So far he hasn't lived up to it. TO whining for the ball has to get old at some point..The bye week will be interesting for them,esp if Romo takes off to the islands again...
Oh yeah,tell your friend to put down the pipe..Best in the league???:rolleyes:
