NFL 2007, Part One

[SeattleVertigo]

That was a pretty exciting game for a short time in the middle of the game. As a Patriots fan, I'm very happy with the win.

I have a lot of respect for Romo and the Cowboys this year. They're a good team. And I think Romo will be a very good QB in the years to come. He's got the right kind of attitude.

Is there a way we can get the inventor of the retractable roof in here during the week of the Colts game to have some fun?

 

[zoney!]

I'm glad the Pats ran up the score.

I am not sure if it was a "ran up"...

If you do not the last score, how many are they ahead and how many did the Cowboys score last week with about the same time?

Sure...we are talking about the Patriots versus the Bills...but never second guess a team that has already score 27 on you!

Especially when God is on your side.

 

[zoney!]

I hate the patriots with all my heart. I have evil thoughts going through my head right now at what should happen to the patriots.

I hope the Colts Kill the Patriots!!!!!!!!!!!

God would ask you to forgive rather than be vengeful.

He must be talking about the Old Testament God and not the New Testament.

You wish evil thoughts about what should happen to the Patriots? Simply because they beat your favorite football team?

There's a lot of smack talk going on in this thread between people, and I realize it's sports, that is gonna happen...but seriously??? Jeez. I really think that you should put a little more thought into words and maybe try to keep your temper/hatred in check.

I was thinking that!

Good points all around.

My dad thought it was a ridiculous idea to run there. Pfft.

Dallas deserves to lose for a number of reasons: the fans, T.O., "America's Team," T.O., "God's Team," and, more importantly, T.O.

 

[Justin24]

You know that the patriots have an easy schedule just like dallas.

Excactlly lol

Keep talking cause were going to bounce back pissed off and crush the eagles

 

[LemonMelon]

Because your team isn't good enough to do it themselves, of course. Even at home.



I know the Skins will get destroyed by the Pats, but I wouldn't be much of a fan if I expected them to lie down in a couple of weeks. We have some fight in us. Hopefully we'll put up a much better fight than Dallas did.

 

[zoney!]

T.O.

You are a true Philly fan!

The way the Pats played the last series is textbook of how you should.
1st down after the 2 minute warning, you run a simple play. If Dallas does not use their final timeout, you kneel on 2nd and 3rd. Since dallas chose to use the timeout, the Pats can not kill the clock, so you keep running the ball, even on 4th down, cause kicking a FG is considered running it up in that scenario, whereas running, even when it results in a TD is not.

Regardless, my point still holds.

 

[Hewson]

The Cowboys deserve some credit. The actually held the lead for a couple of minutes. Thats an accomplishment this year so far against the Pats. Their offense is solid..










Their defense on the other hand stinks.

 

[DaveC]

What an awesome day to start Devin Hester

 

[speedracer]

What an awesome day to start Devin Hester

I just searched for "Devin Hester" on ESPN.com, and it lists him as a wide receiver on one page, and as a cornerback on another.

 

[Justin24]

I will Congratulate the Pat's on their win. After cooling down a bit.

 

[BoMac]

You know that the patriots have an easy schedule just like dallas.

Honestly, Justin, you should really think before you type. A few pages back, I believe it was Headache (and others), who said that once the Cowboys beat a noteworthy team then—and only then— can they be considered the best team in the NFC. But you kept insisting that they were the best team due to their record and they were going to "beat the Patriots."

Now, you're admitting that the Cowboys have had an easy schedule, thereby validating Headache's point.

So what is it? Is their 5-1 record a reflection of their overall talent or their easy schedule? I think it's both with a heavy emphasis on the latter.

 

[Justin24]

Well here is the thing. I think any team can beat any super team, like the pats, colts, cowboys packers. Why because if they really want to win then the offense and defense will make sure they do their job and stop there opponent. Dallas played hard today against the patriots and with the majority against them they held up until the end.

 

[phillyfan26]

If they really want to win, then the offense and defense will make sure they do their job?

You mean to say that every team that loses lost by a lack of effort?

 

[LemonMelon]

The Cowboys haven't proven themselves yet, full stop. All they have proven is that Romo folds under pressure, they have no defense, and TO still can't hold on to the ball.

However, top three in the NFC:

1. Cowboys
2. Skins/Packers
3. Skins/Packers

 

[phillyfan26]

Next question.

Ah, ok I understand now.

Thanks.

 

[Dalton]

Did Vinny Testaverde really play for the Panthers today?

Was it VT Jr? Wtf?

[Dalton]

I'm mean really - that shit is bananas

 

[Got Philk?]

Maybe the Bears should have tried running their Adrian Peterson today. Sheesh!
