Craptastic start

Romo, any time you'd like to remove your head from your ass would be fine, thanks.

LOL... I'll second that!

WTF is up with this team?

It's bad enough they're stinking up the field, but what about that piss poor clock management in the final minute of the 2nd?

With 2 time outs, there was no friggin' reason to rush that 3rd down play, then miss the FG. Take a damned time out & call the right play!

Transplanted Caper · 10-12-2008, 06:02 PM

The O-Line has been terrible today, but my issues with Romo are getting to be a regular occurrence. Maybe it's good we deal with this stuff early on, but we're not seeing the consistency we saw last season. He definitely has another level, and he needs to get back to it for this team to have any sort of success going forward.

Transplanted Caper · 10-12-2008, 06:36 PM

Folk coming out to go for a game tying FG. It's going to have to be a hell of a boot though. Looks like would have to be a 57 yard try if they have to go for it from the current spot.

Wait...now we're trying to run a play instead. Hail Mary here we come apparently.

Wait, no, now we're back to a FG, a 52 yard because of a Arizona offside call.

No, wait, now we're going to back to review the off sides call. This game is taking forever to end.

And the ruling on the field stands. Back to the FG attempt.

And the Cardinals call time-out...and then proceed to block the kick..oops.

And another attempt at this kick.....

ITS GOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OVERTIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL @ TC's commentary!

OMFG

Overtime!

Who'd a thunk that?

Transplanted Caper · 10-12-2008, 06:44 PM

Are
you
effing
kidding
me

Transplanted Caper · 10-12-2008, 06:45 PM

Someone needs to kick someone's ass this week. Countdown to a TO outburst? I say post-game.

magwhump · 10-12-2008, 06:47 PM

Can ya say CHOKE?

klingsor · 10-12-2008, 06:57 PM

That was fun.

Maybe Boys should consider blocking on punts.

Lucky Cards didn't call timeout to "ice" the punter.

magwhump · 10-12-2008, 07:24 PM

I got a feeling that Dallas is going to catch more crap than a litter box from this fiasco.

They stunk up the field all day long... I was surprised the game actually went into OT.

Gotta give credit to the Arizona defense though... They definitely had Romo's number.
Maybe eating grass the whole game will finally wipe that stupid grin off his face!

I have an honest question.

I try to keep up with football, but don't know all the ins and outs. I am wondering why there wasn't a penalty on that last punt by the Cowboys to the Cardinals. Should that have been roughing the kicker (or running into the kicker)? Was it not called because the ball actually touched the player who ran into the kicker? Just a question. I would feel the same way no matter which team it was on. I have read all the definitions for the roughing the kicker/running into the kicker penalty, but don't really understand the "technical" language. Thanks so much.

No it is not a roughing the kicker penalty. The only time they call a roughing the kicker penalty is if the kick was not blocked and was successful. If the defender is able to get a hand on the ball then if he runs into the kicker in the process it's ok.

Thanks so much for the clarification. I really appreciate it.
