Game Thread: Week 9 Early & Late games (excluding DEN/NE)

[bksballer89]

Zona's remaining schedule didn't look 'tough' at all.

Sarcasm or na?

4th and 1 at the Texans 4. Eagles will go for it. Smart move. Texans can't stop the run.

Fins putting the pressure on the patsies with a great effort today. This is the best ball all year....

 

[RobToxin]

Gonna have to measure.

 

[RobToxin]

And he got the first down.

Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good. Arizona had the best week to face Dallas. Lucky bastards.

I was being sincere. But in the NFL: Who knows? I know I don't.

 

[DutchBird]

And he got the first down.

It is a travesty if this decision is overturned upon review; the evidence can NEVER be conclusive (and it would have been the same if he were short), based on where they spotted the ball...

 

[fredmccallyRTR]

In advance: Sorry London for giving you Cowboys vs Jags next week. Go all hooligan about it and break some shit.

I will agree they caught Dallas at the best possible time. but AZ is just playing outstanding football I have watched all their games and they just get it done, lots of play makers on the offensive side of the ball, still gotta play SEA twice and SF on the road so we will see how it all shakes out.

Playing Seattle twice, Rams twice, and SF on the road in divisional games and the Lions are all easy games? If you say so.

 

[RobToxin]

That should seal it. 31-21 Eagles.

Well they have Seattle twice, San Fran, & Detroit.

Not easy at all.

And those are just the games I know from the top of my head

Didn't say Arizona wasn't playing good ball, but let's all be honest here. If Romo was in the game it's an entirely different ball game. It's not like Arizona dominated them all game. Weeden gave them turnovers, but Zona struggled to move the ball and score over a big portion of the game. Romo in there would have been fun to see and my bet would have been on a Dallas win.

There really is no way to confirm one way or another on a spot challenge.

 

[bksballer89]

Andy Dalton is trash

You're right. I have no clue what I was looking at.

My bad. Checked and was entirely wrong.

Yup - the only game they have 'stolen' this season - from what I have seen, is the Eagles game last week. They are very good, and I would say they would have defeated the Cowboys also with Romo playing.

 

[bksballer89]

I would like Zona chances even with Romo....Something that I noticed last week is the Cowboys Oline is terrible at pass protection/picking up the blitz.

Arizona just like the Skins blitz a ton.

Much closer game if Romo played but no guarantee Dallas would win if Romo played

Exactly - Not with camera angles like this, and the way the play went.
