Game Thread: Eagles @ Cowboys

[cowboys5xsbs]

I love when refs decide a game

Giving the Eagles another second there was a straight up joke. Don't think I've ever seen a second be given to a player who caught the ball with one second on his way out of bounds.

these refs need fired

they are really bad both ways

This has been a poorly coached and poorly played first half, for the most part. Zeke, the Oline, Dez and Claiborne have played well. The rest of the team needs to get it in gear in the second half, coaches included.

Penalties are killing this team. Stupid mistakes left and right to go along with poor play calling are the reason the Eagles are going into the half with the lead - Dallas is the better team.

I think Dallas passed on 4 or 5 straight first downs to start the game, and didn't compete any of them, continuously putting Dallas in 2nd and 10 - WTF is Linehan thinking? And then throwing inside the 10 yard line with 3 timeouts when we needed to be running clock? - Garrett still doesn't get clock management, and I don't think he ever will.

Lucky Whitehead fielding that punt at 5 yard line was a huge mistake, and that play completely flipped field position. Jimmy Johnson would have cut a guy for some shit like that.

So far the officiating has sucked. the cowboys coaching staff has sucked. prescott has thrown very ugly passes. Run the fucking ball. there was no reason to throw at the goal line with this OL.and just an atrocious decision by dak to throw the ball into the middle of the defense. that's on the coaching staff to allow dak to throw it on both 1st and 2nd down. this looks like a loss.

Dak is playing like shit. Missing on easy passes. On the interception, Cole Beasley was open and he tried to force into the middle.

I didnt mind trying to catch them off guard with the fade to Dez on 1st down. Even though I would have ran. But after that it should have ran it twice & force them to use timeouts & either score a TD or kick the FG. (while running out the clock)

I agree we should have ran the ball, but it's still on Dak on the interception. Very poor pass. Missed a wide open Beasley.

It also looked to me that the eagle receiver never had complete control of the ball as he went our of bounds. I would suggest the cowboys chop block a zebra or two and get a couple of the flag throwers out of the game

Good Special Teams play to start 2nd half. Need to get a 3 and out or a turnover here to make them pay like they made us pay.

I agree. This is a winnable game. Let eagles get confidence. Run the freaking ball.

Lee is a stud!

I agree totally. I thought it smarter to run it to burn clock and at least have a 3 point lead going into half time.

 

[Earl Stevens]

LOL, is that kick serious?

 

[tomodach10]

Special teams again!!!!!

 

[Earl Stevens]

Everybody knew the Cowboys were running there. That would have been a perfect time for playaction.

 

[Schmoopy1000]

well that series might as well give the eagles some momentum. Even without the eagles doing anything.

 

[Earl Stevens]

Special Teams is killing us man.

 

[es4m11]

These fucking penalties...

The way this team is playing tonight is concerning. Starting to look like one of those nights where they beat themselves.

 

[tomodach10]

Just playing stupid.
