Unbiased Cowboys/ Texans thread.

[carter08]

All joking aside, should be a good game.

[carter08]

Jacoby Jones looks good today.

Foster looks pretty good too.

Any Cowpie fans wanna jump in?

[carter08]

Well, Slaton didn't look good there.

Texans still need better backup backs.

[carter08]

Dallas redzone D is looking pretty good.

3-0 Houston

[carter08]

Okay, Houston got real lucky right there.

[slpybear the bullfan]

This is a good looking drive the Boys are putting together...

[eagles_victory]

How is that a block in the back on Miles Austin he was engaged with the guy and the guy turns around during the block?

[carter08]

well, buh.

The Dez catch in the end zone that he was barely out of bounds on.

But the drive resulted in a TD anyway.
=/

[slpybear the bullfan]

Good looking drive capped off with a MBIII td... That looks better

[BullsFan]

TD!! Niiiice.

Question for anyone who can answer: In the last series when Jason Witten picked up that short pass as he was going down, and then he was rolling on the ground as the two defenders dove into him...how come that wasn't a late hit? He was clearly already on the ground. Is it because he could have gotten up and run with the ball unless someone touched him while he was on the ground?

Yes.

If he isn't touched, he can get up and keep running.

Thanks. I figured that was probably it, especially since the official was standing right there. But I still wanted the call. ;)

have you been living under a rock? i thought everybody knew that rule

[carter08]

Score is a lot lower than I expected it to be so far.

I think both teams will play better in the second Houston will outplay Dallas and win by 10.

As someone who never played football and really didn't even start following it until college and after, I am unaware of some of the finer points. Normally there's a guy around that I can ask, but today I'm watching solo. I thought it was okay to ask for clarification here. Clearly I was mistaken. :rolleyes:

ETA: For the record, I'll bet I still know more football than most female-types, this board excluded.

[SintonFan_inAustin]

Texans secondary has alot of holes in them, not suprise they're rank 31st in defense.

Don't take him too hard... he's the type who when he knows something and someone else doesn't he tries to prove his knowledge by putting someone else down. And I second the jerk comment by Carter08

BullsFan IS A CHICK?!!!!!!!


Lol

[slpybear the bullfan]

And I will add this... BullsFan knows more football than a lot of guys I know. And she dang sure knows more baseball than a lot of dudes I know!

[carter08]

And AJ is down.

Time of Walter and Jacoby to step it up.

Oh, ouch!

[carter08]

Oh, and Leach might be the most underrated Fullback in the league.

[BullsFan]

Thanks, folks! :) :) :) I'm fine--except for the fact that Andre Johnson just went down, and I really needed him on my FF team. That's going to reeeeeally sting. I benched Dez Bryant and kept AJ in despite the injury--two decisions that may come back to haunt me. ARGH.

Was thinking about that for ya. Although I'm liking MBarber and APeterson on the team today

[SintonFan_inAustin]

still have AJ game jersey with autograph and all that i won in 2nd chance lotto drawing still in its plastic covering in came in.

[carter08]

Buh.

Schaub shouldn't have gone deep to AJ. Should have had Jones going deep at this point. AJ's ankle is still hurting.

honestly i think all fullbacks are underrated in all levels of football...its a dying position and they never get any love

[lulu]

Dez is HOT

[coach]

TOUCHDOWN COWBOYS!!!!!!!!!

[SintonFan_inAustin]

[JasperDog94]

Officiating question: If you are shoved out of bounds you cannot be the first to touch the ball? I thought if you were shoved out then as long as you got back in as quick as you could that you could continue to be an eligible receiver. :confused:

no..if player goes out opf bounds they cant be the first person to touch the ball..you might be thinking of punt team guys who CAN go out of bounds and come back in and make the tackle

[Old Tiger]

even a blind mule finds water every once in a while.

[Maroon87]

I'm gonna go ahead and say it and undoubtedly touch off another round of the TXB/FarmersFan debate....


Romo played a terrific game today.


That's all. Now touch gloves and come out fighting.;)

Brings up another question. If you shove a player out of bounds thereby altering his path and he is the intended receiver, how is that not pass interferrance?

[SintonFan_inAustin]

Originally posted by sinton66

If you shove a player out of bounds thereby altering his path and he is the intended receiver, how is that not pass interferrance? as a defender you're allowed to bump the receiver within 5 yds, receivers know to not be that close to the side line so you dont get shove out of bounds.

[SintonFan_inAustin]

Oh and one more thing




HOW 'BOUT THEM COWBOYS!

in the nfl there is no force out rule. if you are forced out as a receiver then you cant be the first to touch the ball. whereas in college if you are forced out you can still be the first to touch the ball. in colllege you can push and bump all day until the ball is in the air. in the nfl you only have 5 yards to do that

That happened in the Boise game last night...resulted in a TD for Boise.

Yes, but I'm fairly confident it was beyond 5 yards. The definition of PI is if the receiver's path to the ball is altered by contact from the defender, right? It may have been that the ball wasn't thrown until he got back in. Don't know, would like to see the replay.

you make a good point good thing it didnt cost us

[Rock66]

Went to the game, 'Boys looked great, Finally put a game together. I Just wanted to apologize to Texan fans for the totally uncalled for behavior of a group Dallas fans in section 350. Those guys were out of control and were very rude. Security escorted them out but not before those guys seriously upset several people. Cowboy fans were happy about the win and I understand the excitement, but the poor sportsmanship was apparent. theres always someone who has to be classles. I guess it's the same at all levels. None the less, that nonsense is unexceptable. I might have putten a good ol' country on those punks if I wouldn't have gotten escorted out myself.

Good point. Maybe a make-up call? :thinking:

Agreed. That sort of behavior should be left up to Philly fans, where it belongs. ;)
