Dallas Cowboys SUCK

I can not believe how horrible the Dallas Cowgirls played tonight against the Eagles. I am sorry, I need to revise that statement. I can not believe they showed up for the game and acted as if they forgot how to play the game.

The first sign of their demise was when the Eagles took the ball on their very first possesion and marched it all the way down the field for a touchdown. It was as if the Dallas secondary players were napping. It did not matter what the Eagles did whether it was running the ball or throwing it they had very little to no resistance from Dallas.

The second sign of the Cowgirls pending doom was Dallas's pathetic attempt to punch the ball across the goal line from the one yard line. How many times does the Dallas Offensive Coach need to run the ball straight up the middle to learn that it was not happening tonight against the Eagles. Can we say play action pass coach? If you run it up the middle two times and you are stopped cold what makes you think the Eagles were going to just let you walk into the end zone?

If that were not bad enough we need to turn our attention to the circus clown wearing the numbers 81. Good grief Grady, here we go again. Our special million dollar receiver could not catch the ball because he has a pulled tendon in his hand. There is your sign Dallas. Your star (cough) circus clown (receiver) is injured and has to try to catch the ball without using his fingers. Maybe he should have sat on the sideline vs running around and making a complete circus side show out of himself and his team members. I could not believe that he had the gall to sit on the bench and SMILE after he dropped several passes. He did not even act like there was any sort of anger or remorse on his part for doing that.
There is your sign....

Just before half time Tony Romo and TO actually connected in the end zone. Then Dallas turns the ball over to the Eagles with less than 2 minutes remaining on the clock and the Dallas defense lets the Eagles march down the field 15 and 20 yards per play so they could punch a field goal across just before the half time making it 13 to 7.

One of the sports commentators said it best when he told the watching viewers this. Coach Reid with the Eagles told his team when they were 6 and 5 that they needed to step it up a notch both as players and coaches and that they were playing cautious football. It was evident to me that the Eagles had a singular purpose tonight and that was to beat the Cowboys at home and that is just what they did.

Dallas knew going into this game that they were in the playoffs no matter what the turn out of this game was tonight. It was almost as if they really did not care one way or the other. My wife and I went and watched the movie "We are Marshall" this weekend. One of the statements from this movie is very applicable here. In the end the only thing that people remember is not how you played the game but that you were winners. If you play the game but not good enough to win then it really does not matter. Tonight people will remember that the Eagles won the game and they played hard enough to earn the win.

Now that Dallas is not in first place in the NFC they wont be hosting a play off game. Considering how badly Dallas sucks at home in Irving stadium maybe that will be a good thing. They seem to play much better on the road than at home. Dallas will have to win the next 3 games in order to get to the Super Bowl. Dallas might have to play the Eagles in Philedelphia for one of those games. Dallas plays Detroit in Irving stadium on December the 31st. Maybe they will actually decide to play football. If I were a betting man I would bet in favor of the opponet at this point in the season.
