Around SBN: AEG To Purchase Spurs?

OT: Generic 9/21 NFL thread

Wow, how bout those Dolphins, what a stunner. Not just to end the Patriots what, 20+ regular season streak, but 38-13?? Great to see for a die hard Pats hater like myself.

 

2: How bout those Texans!!!

You know, after catching wind the Texs hired the young Kyle Shanahan at OC, and I really thought their offense looked unstoppable in that Silver boot game, I was really afraid they were going to take off. It's early but, so far not very good. I guess all those great drafts really never helped and PS, I never did figure out why the hell Matt Schuab was ever considered some kind of young stud, considering as far as I could tell he never did jack to deserve that label (much like Jay Cutler prior to this season imo, really).

Looks like the Giants struggled today as well, good to see. Also looks like the Skins are coming on, we've got to keep an eye on that Zorn guy..

this thread should be enough for the cowboys too

anyway, thus far…

1) Bengals failed me. Eli made a bad pass and they had to punt in overtime, bengals could have won…. oh well
2) Brian Griese – 38 for 67. 400 yards 2 tds 3 ints. that must have been.. interesting.
3) They won today, but man the vikes should have had a better backup than gus frerotte. Plenty of backups would be legitimate improvements to their team.
4) Houston, heh.
5) Glad new englad lost. Didnt need to hear how good bellicheck is this week. Ronnie Browd 4 rushing tds and 1 passing.

Go Cowboys!

the preceding post was a great success.

Looks like Ricky W actually had a better game

Both had a lot of yards and about 6 a carry, but Brown had a 72 yarder in there to skew his average while RW’s long was 28.

Out of the Cowboys tonight

Call me crazy but I’d like to see about a 31-10 win to show our progress. I dont wanna sweat this one.

Of course, not a team in the NFL could be expected to do that. Cowboys are best in NFL. We were the only favored road team this week.. against one of the best teams in the league.

Very interested in the Cowboys-Packers game tonight.

I’m one of the (I think) few that are still skeptical of Dallas as an elite team in the league this year. A sound win over (I think) a top-tier NFC team on the road would go a long way towards converting me into a believer.

Colts

Had Jags right where they wanted em. Manning trailing in obvious passing situations with 2 minutes left? Right where they wanted em.

The Colts huge new stadium, as pointed out by Bill Simmons, is so antiseptic and quiet though, removing a major homefield advantage compared to the Hoosier dome.. I hope the Cowboys new field doesnt turn out like that..

wild hog formation!

http://tidedruid.wordpress.com/2007/09/13/
In 2006, Arkansas’ coach Houston Nutt, implemented a wildcat offensive formation package to get these two playmakers the ball. The wildcat formation removes the quarterback (Casey Dick) and features a shotgun snap to McFadden who plays like an old single-wing tailback.

The formation was not a Nutt invention. The wildcat, a variation of a double wing offensive formation, has been around for many years. The wildcat (and its parent the double wing offense) generally features trap blocking, a crossing wingback who is in motion before the snap, and misdirection.

Arkansas is using the wildcat formation again in 2007, but Nutt renamed it the Wild Hog. McFadden, who sometimes played quarterback while in high school, is a moderate threat to pass from the Wild Hog. More likely than not, when you se

TCU's defense should be able to slow OU down (comparatively speaking)

But TCU’s offense is still trying to break Aaron Brown back in and Dalton is just a sophomore who really isn’t a great passer just yet.

OU shouldn’t have any problem keeping TCU’s offense in check and eventually should put up plenty of points.

So...

I’m reading the Chronicle article, about the rumors out there about how there are thousands of dead bodies floating in Galveston Bay, and all these things being covered up about the devastation down there because of a media/gov’t conspiracy…

And then reading comments of people trying to defend those rumors…

And it makes me realize…there are a lot of dumb people out there…

That is the line you walk with Romo

He is going to do stupid stuff trying to make plays and then he is going to step up and heave it downfield for a TD when he probably should have done something safer. Live by it die by it.

I don't think anyone wanted to replace him.

But he’s been horrendous tonight, outside of two throws to Austin.

"One man, five scoops." -- shroomer

by ghtd36 on Sep 21, 2008 9:56 PM CDT up reply actions  

well outside of an int and some other random play hes been fine

cant do that.

15 for 27, 217 yards, 1 td, 1 int. 80 qb rating with more pressure and fewer open receivers than usual. Should have been 2 tds if not for austin being silly on the first one. Its not his usual stuff. Not a great game. But its fine. Just a slight off game where things wernt totally in sync.

and yes the replacing him was overstating it, but between here and blogging the boys there were some pretty negative comments on him.

if he had his perfect game every week hed win the mvp every year, its just not going to happen.

the preceding post was a great success.

I'm just talking about what I've seen.

He’s missed very badly on quite a few passes, and he’s made a number of very bad decisions. Again, this is the exception as opposed to the rule, but I feel like he’s been very bad this evening.

With this win, NE’s loss, Philly not lighting it up this week, the Giants barely winning, I feel pretty good.

Let me be the first to go ahead and mention “undefeated”.

But lets see, the East has a combined two losses..both of them interdivision.

The Cowboys will not go undefeated. That, I am exceptionally confident in.

However, I am now of the opinion that the Cowboys are an elite team in the league this year. Consider me converted.
