Thread: How 'bout them Cowboys???

    Default How 'bout them Cowboys???

    I purposely avoided watching the Cowboys/Saints game because I had zero faith in our Boys. So I caught the 14-3 score in the first half, and I was guardedly optimistic. At the start of the 4th, I was pleased that we were somehow still up 24-10. Luckily, I was able to catch the last half of the 4th at a bar that was apparently packed with Saints fans. They were cheering at all the wrong moments. What made it even stranger was that the place was packed with 10-15 guys and gals dressed in Santa suits - they were just drunk and cheering for Christmas. Anyhow, I cussed the TV and almost threw a beer when Folk missed that effing field goal, but I relished the pure deflation that occurred in that place when DeMarcus "I Almost Broke My Effing Neck Last Week" Ware sacked Brees and Ratliff recovered the fumble. I jumped up and down and launched the orange slice out of my empty Blue Moon glass. The outnumbered Cowboy fans were all high-fiving each other - hell, we even high-fived the creepy dude at the end of the bar wearing a Doors t-shirt that barely covered his belly.

    Good times. Go Cowboys. Whew.

    I wasn't planning on watching the game, went to a Christmas party. Started checking the score and was surprised. Finally made it home to see the final play. Can't believe I missed such an awesome game!!

    I cant believe the saints played so freakin bad last night, I'll bet Brees is chewing some arse today.
    I am so mad even today I could just chew nails, there goes a perfect season.

    I have to say I suspected it would happen tho after the last two games, the Saints look like they are out of gas....unless they turn it around and get hungry again.

    I would hate to see them come this far and lose the first playoff game.

    Hey Billy don't blame me. I'm a Colt's fan who incidentally are still undefeated.

    Yep...the Colts played Thursday.

    I'm not a Boys fan at all mostly because of Mr. Jones, but they did outplay the Saints
    last night. They started fast on offense and defense and didn't let them get back
    in the game. Romo probably had one of his best games ever.

    The Cowboys played a pretty good game last night... most of them, anyway.

    Nick Folk needs to be fired. Seriously. He's pathetic. You do not miss a 24 yard field goal - in a freakin' dome, no less - that would put you up two scores against an undefeated team with 3 minutes left to play in the game. If Ware hadn't been on fire and Brees had connected on that drive, all the momentum would have been with the Saints and it could have been a completely different outcome in overtime.

    Nick Folk sucks nuts. He has missed at least one field goal attempt in each of the last six games. He is the single biggest liability the Cowboys currently have.

    I hope Jerry made him walk home last night. There are high school kickers that are better than him.

    Ya think? What other NFL team risks making their starting QB hold for field goals and extra points? We all know the holder is the most important
    postion on the field.

    I didn't see the game

    Agreed... and now we've hired a kicker that we already cut once before.

    Problem solved.

    Yeah, but he's 18/21 this year...not bad. Much better than 18/28! I'm glad to see Suisham onboard.

    It's all a moot point. Colts are going to win it.
