The official Patriots vs Cowboys game thread

[andrewgarrr]

Hernandez needs to hold onto the ball. In hindsight, they should have declined the running into the kicker. They would have pinned the Cowboys deeper.

So the coaching staff should have for foreseen a turnover?

A million times out of a million times you take that penalty. I really hope you're being facetious.

give it to dallas..they are playing well...better than the pats

 

[Kdo5]

wow, you are SUCH a football mind, its a wonder you dont work in the NFL!

Fumbles and INT's in our own territory = high probability of loss. Thats a fact.

 

[PatriotFan77]

first place in the East for the taking and Pats just tanking

 

[E1Downey]

He was smacked on the facemask. That is illegal contact.

Don't care, he was slapped in the face, didn't look like it had any impact on the fumble on the replay, he should not have lost it.

 

[NEPatriot]

You've got to give it to Dallas. We need a stop here.

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

turnover reminds me of the bills game turnovers...not good

 

[robbomango]

And the fact it was Hernandez again is frustrating. Time for him to get it right or get out

last you wanted Brady taken out of the game now Hernandez

as the last poster put it "chicken little"

We're in Dallas territory there, genius.

 

[jays52]

This game is sweet. Reminds me of what football used to look like before Polian ruined it.

 

[ensoul]

I don't see how they win this game. The offense is just beyond awful. They need to stop throwing the ball to Hernandez as well.

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Another Buffalo-like meltdown with the turnovers. Gotta get this **** out of our system now before the playoffs. Unfortunate if it costs us another game though, defense needs to come up big here

Huh?

There's a REASON that hits to the face/fascemask are penalties

Did a ref throw a flag and then pick it up?

LOL @ that bend tool now wanting hernandez to be benched HAHA

 

[VJCPatriot]

a lot of uncharacteristic mistakes here. really this is taking points off the board. 1 kick return fumbled away. and now this fumble with hernandez. That's potentially 14 points gone. Grrr!

This offense is the best in the league. enough with the hyperbole, really.

 

[PatsFan24]

They might need to win this game with the D. Force a Romo pick here and set up a score.

 

[andrewgarrr]

Crossing my fingers for the typical Romo crash!

Pats offense hasn't brought their A game today. We'll see if that changes in the 4th.

That is why I said in hindsight. Of course I don't think the Pats should have declined the penalty.

Calm down gentlemen, game is still tied. Ball is in Dallas territory. This is the type of game that separates the men from the boys. Alas, Hernandez might still be a boy.
