a 17-7 lead at half would be huge
we get the ball first in the 2nd half
Bryan Smith (12:17:17 PM PT): Justin Smoak and Josh Hamilton. The AL West might just have found their Bash Brothers, v. 2.0.
Yeah
Why are they going through this? They have two really talented RBs who are available, and they’re insisting on losing yards on all of Barber’s carries.

Fact: tony romo is good
He had uncharacteristically poor accuracy in 2 of the games this year and was truly bad in those, but thats not what we’ve seen the rest of his career regardless of the receivers involved aside from when he injured his thumb, no reason to think it would continue.. and hasn’t the last two games.
the preceding post was a great success.
this will be telling
cowboys have had a really hard time scoring in the red zone. falcons are really good in the red zone. odds are stacked against them scoring a TD

"I just want to comment on how it’s become like a common thing in the [MLB] for guys to fall in love with [the Rangers’s] sloppy seconds." (thanks cstorm)
Whoever asked why they don't utilize Bennett more
It is kind of hard, I think, to run a 2 WR/2TE offense when neither of your TEs are true blocking TEs.
You could use them both with a RB, FB, and WR, and cause some problems with matchups for the defense that way, I think, but using both Witten and Bennett with 2 wides means you’ve got two guys who are better pass catchers than blockers and limits your options, I think, in terms of pass protection.
I think Witten is a damn good blocker
Hes a great receiving TE but a pretty stout blocker too
Bryan Smith (12:17:17 PM PT): Justin Smoak and Josh Hamilton. The AL West might just have found their Bash Brothers, v. 2.0.
I could understand the arguement
If Witten and Bennet were subpar blockers. But they’re both well above average in that respect.
I like steak.
Oh that was me
But I just think that Bennett is a type of player you can line up wide and use him in the passing game. Its just so confusing when we have two TEs that linebackers have a difficult time covering so they have to use a CB to cover, which is a mismatch.
Bill Simmons: "I will tell you right now, if the Boston Red Sox traded Clay Buchholz for Justin Smoak, I will run around my neighborhood naked...celebrating for an hour. I love Justin Smoak"
2 TE set
Bob Sturm has done a lot of talking and writing on his blog about how effective the offense has been in the 2 TE set. It doesn’t show in numbers for Witten and Bennett but the offense on the whole has been outstanding in that lineup.

Sturm knows much more than I do about that sort of thing
I was throwing out my initial thought about why they wouldn’t go to that package more. Teams usually, when they go 2 TEs, have at least one of them being a 6th-OL-type blocking TE.
by Adam J. Morris on Oct 25, 2009 4:45 PM CDT up reply actions
i don't think that's true at all
about them being bad pass blockers.

We can't spike it dumbass its 3rd down
that would be spiking it on 4th down
Bryan Smith (12:17:17 PM PT): Justin Smoak and Josh Hamilton. The AL West might just have found their Bash Brothers, v. 2.0.
WOW WHAT A PLAY BY ROMO
Bryan Smith (12:17:17 PM PT): Justin Smoak and Josh Hamilton. The AL West might just have found their Bash Brothers, v. 2.0.
First time in two years that I'll say...
…that was a tremendous play by Romo.
What do tigers dream of when they take a little tiger snooze? Do they dream of mauling zebras, or Halle Berry in her Catwoman suit?
Nope
Saw them all. Quite simply, I don’t think Tony Romo is an elite QB. That was a great play, for sure, but that’s just how I feel based on what I’ve seen (which is everything).
What do tigers dream of when they take a little tiger snooze? Do they dream of mauling zebras, or Halle Berry in her Catwoman suit?
He's not elite
Not like Peyton-Brady-Brees. But he’s excellent-probably the 7th or 8th best QB out there.
I like steak.
Very fair assessment.
What do tigers dream of when they take a little tiger snooze? Do they dream of mauling zebras, or Halle Berry in her Catwoman suit?
Who's the next tier?
Rivers and Rodgers? Flacco ready yet?
I still see someone like Warner and Palmer squeezing in there.
Remember to retire Fin's number, Mark.
Tiers
Manning-Brady-Brees
Rivers-Ryan-Rodgers-Roethlisberger
Flacco-Romo-McNabb-Cutler-Eli-possibly Orton
I like steak.
I like it
But there’s a part of me that wants to move Flacco into Tier 2
Bill Simmons: "I will tell you right now, if the Boston Red Sox traded Clay Buchholz for Justin Smoak, I will run around my neighborhood naked...celebrating for an hour. I love Justin Smoak"

why?
Bryan Smith (12:17:17 PM PT): Justin Smoak and Josh Hamilton. The AL West might just have found their Bash Brothers, v. 2.0.
even with so little time left?
Bryan Smith (12:17:17 PM PT): Justin Smoak and Josh Hamilton. The AL West might just have found their Bash Brothers, v. 2.0.
almost ended badly
ball at the 50 with a few ticks left
"I just want to comment on how it’s become like a common thing in the [MLB] for guys to fall in love with [the Rangers’s] sloppy seconds." (thanks cstorm)
Id much rather take my chances on a hail mary than a kickoff return
Bryan Smith (12:17:17 PM PT): Justin Smoak and Josh Hamilton. The AL West might just have found their Bash Brothers, v. 2.0.
i'm actually not sure which one i would rather
"I just want to comment on how it’s become like a common thing in the [MLB] for guys to fall in love with [the Rangers’s] sloppy seconds." (thanks cstorm)
huh?
How many hail marys work?
How many kickoff returns go the distance?
There are alot more kickoff returns for TD than hail marys that work
Bryan Smith (12:17:17 PM PT): Justin Smoak and Josh Hamilton. The AL West might just have found their Bash Brothers, v. 2.0.
i bet by the percentages, it is pretty close
you only think KO returns are more productive because you see them more often but KO’s happen so much more than Haily marry attempts
"I just want to comment on how it’s become like a common thing in the [MLB] for guys to fall in love with [the Rangers’s] sloppy seconds." (thanks cstorm)
I highly doubt its even that close
Sure you see more kickoff returns but I can only remember a handful of hail marys that have worked in the last ten plus years. I mean we are talking like less than 5. Its very very minimal.
Bryan Smith (12:17:17 PM PT): Justin Smoak and Josh Hamilton. The AL West might just have found their Bash Brothers, v. 2.0.
Yep
Because the defense usually has 6-8 guys back in the secondary and The QB also can’t hit the receiver in stride,so the ball gets huge airtime- giving the defenders time to get under the ball, at which point all they have to do is swat it away, whereas the receivers have to catch, hang on while being pummeled, and occasionally manuever just to land inbounds.
I like steak.
but then you could just position your KO return coverage in the same way
play guys back, etc.
"I just want to comment on how it’s become like a common thing in the [MLB] for guys to fall in love with [the Rangers’s] sloppy seconds." (thanks cstorm)
Except on a kickoff return you have 10 blockers
On a hail mary you have the 5 OL plus the QB so at most its 5 on 7 or 8. And most likely you keep a TE or RB in to block so its only 3 or 4 vs 7 or 8
Bryan Smith (12:17:17 PM PT): Justin Smoak and Josh Hamilton. The AL West might just have found their Bash Brothers, v. 2.0.
Especially considering the way the game started,
that was a great 2nd quarter for the Cowboys,….I’d like to see the running game come alive though

So, just like this morning, there's 1 game within 10 points
And it is Buffalo 7, Carolina 2.
The networks must be thrilled.
but that NO MIA game is far from over
its still NO and it’s still MIA

Do you think
The networks would prefer exceptional parity, or several elite teams (the 90s) who garner huge ratings for every game they play?
I’s probably Option A, but I’m not sure.
I like steak.
Depends
I don’t know what the coverage map looks like but as long as the game thats going to the majority of the nation is close thats all that really matters. Fans in their teams city are gonna watch regardless of scores most likely. So like earlier here in Dallas the Minn/Pit game was on and it was close. I could have cared less what the other games were doing.

Looks like its going to be overturned
Bill Simmons: "I will tell you right now, if the Boston Red Sox traded Clay Buchholz for Justin Smoak, I will run around my neighborhood naked...celebrating for an hour. I love Justin Smoak"
Well, this is weird
Call was overturned in the game, meaning that the Saints didn’t score and had the ball on the 1 yard line, no timeouts. Right when they blew the whistle, the clock would start running. Saints already had their kicking team on the field, to get points…..
Yet, Miami calls a Timeout, allowing the Saints the opportunity to put their offense back on the field. They soon follow with a QB sneak to score a TD
Horrible coaching by Miami

they played pretty damn well against those two teams
if you use the argument that the Giants are one of the best in the NFC because they beat up on the dregs of the league then the Pats would go under that umbrella also

fair enough
I just hated hearing how awesome the Giants were when they were beating shitty teams. They barely beat the Cowboys who handed them the game practically and got destroyed by NO, the only two teams theyve played who are worth a damn.

Sam Bradford
Expected to announce tomorrow that he’s going into the Draft
I dunno what to think about this
Bill Simmons: "I will tell you right now, if the Boston Red Sox traded Clay Buchholz for Justin Smoak, I will run around my neighborhood naked...celebrating for an hour. I love Justin Smoak"
hes probably kicking himself for not going last year
Honestly I don’t know why he went back. He was thought to be the clear cut #1 choice so going back couldn’t have really improved his draft stock. Instead he went back, got hurt, needs surgery, and could slip a little. He cost himself several millions of dollars and a year of having it
Bryan Smith (12:17:17 PM PT): Justin Smoak and Josh Hamilton. The AL West might just have found their Bash Brothers, v. 2.0.
I don't understand
What was going through his head when he decided to return to OU last year.
His stock had nowhere to go but down.
He’ll be a great pick for someone in the middle of the first round.

I might have said that at some point back in April or May
I think I’ve also pretty consistently said for a few months now that they’re a team that will be bounced in the first round.
That’s been my main complaint with Cuban…he seems dead set on collecting a bunch of guys who were good 4-5 years ago so he can make a run at, maybe, possibly, upsetting a team in the first round and advancing to the conference semis.

and the fact we gave up 2 draft picks for him
Bryan Smith (12:17:17 PM PT): Justin Smoak and Josh Hamilton. The AL West might just have found their Bash Brothers, v. 2.0.
Look I am a Longhorn fan so I give horns the benefit of the doubt
But that statement is dumb. Maybe the guys selected at those spots hes better than but this is the Lions we are talking about who is selecting. I imagine had the Cowboys had those picks we would have picked Harvin (picked 2 spots later in the 1st) who looks to be better than Roy. Roy was a good receiver on a bad Detroit team but on a good team Roy is at best a #2 receiver. Supposedly his best trait are his hands and without having the stats in front of me I would venture he is on pace to drop more balls than TO did as a Cowboy. His speed is average at best and I realize he is tall and a long strider (I myself am so I understand it) but he hasn’t ran away from anyone in his year here.
The trade is a bust. It sucks but we have to move on. We will most likely win in spite of it but having Roy Williams as our #1 receiver means our receiving corps are in serious trouble
Bryan Smith (12:17:17 PM PT): Justin Smoak and Josh Hamilton. The AL West might just have found their Bash Brothers, v. 2.0.
bust?
give it some time. No WR coming to a new team during a year does well. You can’t name one. And a handful of games into this season, Tony and Roy’s chemistry hasn’t been perfect, but that’s going to happen. He’s still averaging 20 yards a catch on a team with A LOT of weapons. He’ll be fine…
And Harvin? Don’t be ridiculous.
Average Speed? I’d be willing to guess he’s still a 4.4 guy…
I’m willing to give it some time. It took Tony and TO time, it’s certainly took Tony and Miles some time…everyone is so brainwashed by all these Ex-Cowboys/ESPN’s rhetoric on Romo and Roy…they forget to intelligently analyze the dynamic of this particular situation.
usa
He had a whole offseason to get the "chemistry" down
He sucks. Only a blind Longhorn sunshine pumper wouldn’t acknowledge that. He had one good season in his career. Hes on pace for less than 40 catches this season. Guys who average 3 catches per game with a decent YPC are 2nd and 3rd receivers on most teams not their #1.
If he has 4.4 speed he hasn’t shown it yet. Maybe on the TD against TB when he was running alone but the next time I see him beat a defender on a route will be the first.
Oh hes a great blocker though so maybe thats what we can hang our hat on
Bryan Smith (12:17:17 PM PT): Justin Smoak and Josh Hamilton. The AL West might just have found their Bash Brothers, v. 2.0.

"I just want to comment on how it’s become like a common thing in the [MLB] for guys to fall in love with [the Rangers’s] sloppy seconds." (thanks cstorm)
Miami completed a pass where the WR broke a tackle
got to the 6 or 7 yard line and went to spike it. They spiked it with 1 second left. If they had scored a TD it wouldn’t have mattered in real life but it would have kept NO from covering the spread. But when they spiked it their WR wasn’t set so it was a 10 second runoff which ended the game

"Stats are like a woman in a fine little bikini. You can see a lot, but you can't see everything." -Dirk A. Tron
Im tired of hearing about how great the Giants are
They have, in my opinion, been exposed. They are a team that beats up on weak ones and pads their stats but against good teams they are not that good. They got destroyed last week against New Orleans and against Dallas it took us gifting them 20+ points and a last second FG to barely win. Now tonight they have given up 24 points to the Cardinals.
Eli Manning is not a good QB. Don’t give me this bullshit about he won a SB because Trent fucking Dilfer also won a SB and right now they are really close in terms of talent IMO.
Bryan Smith (12:17:17 PM PT): Justin Smoak and Josh Hamilton. The AL West might just have found their Bash Brothers, v. 2.0.
That last statement
Is pretty silly, and I loathe Eli.
Baltimore winning that Super Bowl is the worst thing that ever happened to football arguments, because now whenever you tell your buddy that QB X sucks and therefore the likelihood of winning a title is that much smaller, the inevitable response is “Hey man, Trent Dilfer won a Super Bowl!”. Now we’re seeing a bastardization of that argument here: “Hey man, QB X (Who won a Super Bowl) can’t be that great cause Trent Dilfer also won a Super Bowl!”

Hes gotten by on name alone. Put any pressure at all on him and hes toast. Put him on a team without the steller D the Giants have had in the past and he probably isn’t a .500 QB.

Yeah, he was playing extremely confidant the 1st couple weeks of the season
But you break that confidence and he will throw you the football

he wasn’t of course earlier in his career, but coming off a great postseason (SB year), a good year last year and so far a really good this year…
really odd for anyone to say he’s not a good QB right now.

5th inning against the Tigers
Well
So, I guess offensive coordinator is back to not mattering this week.
I really felt like the season was on the line in this game. If you assume you need 10-6 to make the playoffs, lose this and you’re 3-3, you can afford 3 more losses and you have 2 with Philly, at NYG, and at NO remaining, plus the rest of the games.
Now, take care of business against Seattle and you’re 5-2, only need to go 5-4, basically playing with house money the rest of the year in all your tough games. The season becomes downhill.
Also, Washington switching to Shermaln Lewis as playcaller is a break. The at Washington game could have been tough. Now you can chalk up two wins against Wash, another against Oakland, and probably another against Seattle, thats 9 right there.
The divisions is definitely back in play now too. The tough loss to the Giants hurts a lot more now.
For the game itself..it is what i is, but Garrett is always going to be a bonehead about situational calls. I dont know why but he just wont take the downhill calls, and he always runs on 2nd and 10, and when was the last time this team threw a true deep pass? Miles Austin gets long TD’s every week but none of them are true deep passes.
That said, I have to remind even myself sometimes, Garrett’s pretty good. The fact is we’re 2nd in the NFL in yards a game.
And there are 8 of 32 teams in the NFL with a better than 4-2 record. Has their ever been a good team more maligned than the Phillips/Jones Cowboys? I’ve never seen it, or even close. As always, you’d think the team was 0-6.
Around the league…Indy has a new OC this year, Clyde Christensen. replacing ancient Tom Moore, I wondered how it would effect them, I thought it might be positive, and it seems to be. Though I dont put a ton of stock in it, since Manning is basically the OC there.
Also Arizona is underrated, I thought they would beat the Giants. Whisenhunt is a better playcaller than Haley too.
SF is still overrated and Singletary is the worst coach I’ve seen in a while…come in and can a decent OC in Martz..yeah, they might have one more win this year. I’m only surprised how close it was, which makes me think the Texans are still pretty bad. Although Schaub is up in the QB rating leaders now, which means Shanahan is doing well. The problem there will be defense, they aren’t going anywhere.
Line is Dallas by 9.5 on Seattle.
If you want easy money take Philly and give the points with Washington. Easssssy money.
Also
Payton Manning has been in the league 12 years? Wow. I heard him say that in an interview and couldn’t believe it.
I thought he was 28 or 29-ish.
me either
neither of our “locks” worked out so well, but I’m taking Wash and the points tonight. Just because home team dogs on Monday night are usually a good play and I usually take the points on inter-divisional rivalries when the spread is a touchdown or more.

It’s really not a good way to measure a team.
I hate hearing the phrase “desperate team.”
The Detroit Lions (who have beaten the Skins this year) were desperate for 16 games last year, and they still sucked.
The Redskins are horribly coached and old. They have 2 wins, against TB and STL. They won those games by a combined 5 points.
I just dont have a feel for how good they are
And how well they will overcome adversity without Brian Dawkins.
I definitely the Redskins are capable of winning this game. I think they’re better than they’ve shown thru their first 7.
Imma give you a hint
The Eagles are gonna win easily lol.
Sherman Lewis, really?
It’s times like these I wish I had a internet gambling account set up to make some easy money, a game that just jumps out at you.
Cowboys extend Ware per a Jay Glazer tweet
i’m reporting dallas and d ware have agreed on new 6 yr deal worth up to 13 per yr and nearly 40mil guaranteed. well worth it!
Is it really a good move?
How old is Ware anyway? Must be 27 right? If so, he’s probably basically done.
Ahh well, the flip side of players not mattering in the NFL is contracts dont either. You could always get some guy at minimum salary who will be as good as a 10 million dollar player. In the end it’s all funny money, a big contract never hurts you.
That’s why if there’s ever unfettered free agency in the NFL, the NY teams still wont be able to buy titles like the Yankees do.

What I learned
-That Jason Cambell is playing his last games as the starting QB for the Redskins. I expect him to pop up again in a few years, and be somewhat successful.
-Donovan McNabb is struggling.
-The Eagles are not scary.
You're right, the Eagles aren't scary...
but they’re a decent team. I think this season (so far) has shown us that NFC East kinda sucks.
Looking at the standings, I have to agree...
If not for Detroit, the NFC North would look O.K.
GB & Minn both look decent enough. I don’t know that anybody in the NFC East can beat either of those teams.
Each division has one horrible horrible team in it. Not just bad, but HORRIBLE.
Ugh.
I'm a Giants fan, and I'm not sure...
I’m not saying they wouldn’t, or couldn’t beat GB.. because everyone knows Tuck and Umenyiora would have a freakin’ field day against that o-line. However, the pass defense has been horrendous, I don’t feel good about this team.
I think I’m overrating GB a bit though, they’ve had a cake schedule as well w/ Chicago, STL, Cleveland, and Detroit.
I thought they had a chance to cover the spread
they only missed by a field goal, so it wasn’t really unreasonable.

They look better
with Miles Austin. Luckily December is coming, and they will revert to their suck, and Austin will likely get injured.

Damn, SF has the Panthers 1st round pick next year
Now they just need Alex Smith to stop them from having to take a QB
I really hope...
Alex gets a fair shot to see what he can do in the next 10 weeks or so.
I’m not counting on it, but it sure would be nice to see him do well.

SF will have gone from having an extremely boring, run oriented offense to a fairly dynamic offense with very good skill players in about a weeks time.
