OT: 2018 NFL Thread Part II

[BenedictGomez]

If the Cowboys had an NFL quarterback this game would be 34 to 9 Cowboys, and out-of-reach right now.

 

[Devils Dominion]

This Cooper guy is pretty good

 

[Devils Dominion]

That's a horrendous call against Philly

 

[BenedictGomez]

Eagles just got screwed again on the game tying TD, and that probably ends their season.

Just disgusting refereeing again. And this time it likely ends a teams' season.

 

[Devils Dominion]

What, roughing the passer?

What has happened to the NFL and their officiating??

 

[BenedictGomez]

Wentz is basically WILLING the Eagles season to stay alive at this point.

 

[BenedictGomez]

Now the refs call a penalty on Dallas, but then PICK it up, which is basically a free timeout for the Cowboys, which gives them at least 1 extra play for the game winning Field Goal.

This is getting insane. Just award the game to the Cowboys and save us the time from watching.

 

[TheUnseenHand]

This game blows, these teams suck. Bama is better than both of them.

 

[DerekDevils30]

It's hilarious watching the game and the broadcast crew handing it over to Mike Pereira on back to back plays. The officiating has been horrendous in this game

 

[DerekDevils30]

I don't care for either team but I could really use a shot of Jerruh Jones in his suite with a beat red face after his Cowboys lose

 

[BenedictGomez]

At this point I'd rather the Cowboys score a TD than have the Eagles lose on the NFL's LOL OT rules that care more about TV than fairness.

EDIT: And the Eagles season ends on a fluke TD. Amazing.

 

[DerekDevils30]

Dallas has a f***ing horse shoe up their ass. Garbage. Douglas played that exceptionally well

By the way, Joe Buck is a jackass

 

[DerekDevils30]

That Patrick Mahomes no look pass was absolutely incredible. Put it right on the money too

 

[Devils Dominion]

Brutal loss for Philly, brutal

 

[Emperoreddy]

Eh I don't need the Jets winning out but I'm glad they got this one cause of Darnold leading the game-winning drive. At most they'll go 5-11, they aren't beating the Texans or Pats.

Don't want the Dolphins to make the playoffs but holy **** dat ending even gives me chills.

That was legitimately insane.

DAL will have their comeuppance when they have to go on the road in the playoffs.

DAL will have their comeuppance when they play a team with either a decent secondary, or a secondary that isnt ravaged by injury like the Eagles.

Here's how you beat Dallas:

1) The defensive game plan is designed to take away Elliot

2) Achieve #1, and you make Dallas beat you with Dak throwing DOWNfield (i.e. not the 95% of screen passes he lobs).

With more consistent reffing they probably lose the last two games.

I am not a Cowboys fan but I bet them yesterday and I cannot agree. There were bad calls both ways the last 2 weeks. The first play was terrible, but the calls likely evened out. Dallas was called for 11 penalties for 111 yards. The Eagles were 5 for 49.

The Cowboys dominated the game statistically. The yardage was 576 to 256. I do not think the Eagles should have won that game. My wallet definitely is glad they did not!

Dallas was the better team by a wide margin

Philly DB screwed up on the game winning TD pass

 

[BenedictGomez]

With more consistent reffing they probably lose the last two games.

The entire game was changed on the first play, when Dallas fumbled the kickoff and the Eagles recover on the 16 yard line, yet miraculously they awarded the Cowboys the ball. Eagles would have been playing with probably a 7 point lead, or at least a 3 point lead even if they blew it, instead, Dallas took the early lead.

Of course, the Eagles also could have won if they didn't miss an extra point, so there's that, but yes, the Cowboys season is beyond fortunate at this point and they probably should be 5-8, not 8-5.

How do you figure? He played it perfectly. Even Aikman agreed, and he's a Dallas homer. It was just a complete fluke bounce that allowed Dallas to score, or they're attempting a long FG try and the Eagles get the ball back for the tie or the win.

Fluke or not knocking the ball, however you want to interpret it.

Bears played an excellent game against the Rams. It’s still difficult for young QBs to win on the road in adverse conditions. Goff and Mahomes can really pile it on when front running but as Mahomes couldn’t get it done late in the game at LA, Goff couldn’t quite make it happen against the Bears. Both are great talents and have many bright years ahead of them but I wasn’t surprised by the Bears winning last night.
