Game could, maybe efen should, be 5-0 Lions right now. But it could also easily be 3-21 Dallas right now. Dallas making all of the plays, but Detroit getting quite a bit of luck.

Setting up for a good second half of football. Detroit hasn't been very good in 3rd quarter. We'll see what happens.

Booooooo Jerry

Cowboys sure do get treated different.

Any other teams "ring of honor" or whatever might get 30 seconds of recap during the pre-game.

Jimmy Johnson ring of honor ceremony live look in....

It's been 30 years...took them long enough...and damn Jerry is old...looks kind of decrepit

Jimmy deserves it … Took the worst team in the NFL and made them Super Bowl champs … He also pulled off the most one sided trade in NFL history which started the Cowboys run …

Randy White & TD still looks good though.

he changed how all teams look at the draft as well.

Right, when Jerry bought them he said the organization was loosing $1million per month...so they weren't selling so well then. I will give him credit for righting that ship without doing a Snyder and alienating his fans, he got that and hiring Johnson right at the start.

I'm happy for Jimmy Johnson. Well deserved. Damn...just think if he'd coached there 10-12 seasons instead of only 5. Who knows?

 

[Moab]

Randy White & TD still looks good though.

White is probably right around 70 and Dorsett is late 60's, so yes they're doing well after playing this game for as long as they did and when they did. The game was brutal in the 70's and 80's. Sad part is the NFL knew it, but didn't care at all. Not like they care that much now, but it's better as far as safety goes.

I just looked, White is 70 (71 in Jan) and Dorsett is 69.

America's Team
The Cowboys don't force nearly every sports talk show to talk about them every show. They do it because the Cowboys get them ratings.

Fuck Hershel Walker.

 

[Mebert]

Cowboys pressure up the middle has been unreal. Been impressive to watch.

 

[Moab]

Stupid credit rating commercials....want your credit score to go up and not go down...pay your bills on time ... don't run up high balances on your credit cards vs the limits ... then you don't have to worry about it being low in the first place

 

[Moab]

Try to run 3rd and short for the 4th time and failed every time...time to try something different...

 

[tabascojet]

How about tge fycking lions throw some screen passes I stead of run up the muddle fir loss again....

 

[HaroldSeattle]

Nice drive for the Lions.
