How do you call that?

 

[sambam94]

3 kneels will do it but dummies will probably try to run it in

 

[Its_The_Patriots]

Look back dude

 

[XLIX]

Q: Is Jason Garrett smart enough to know that they can just kneel to victory at this point?

(answer coming....)

EDIT: Yes he is!!!

 

[Joker]

Sure, make some **** up and get outraged by it. Save your soap box rant for somebody who cares.

just like you could care less about the Patriots?

 

[TheBeers]

crap call whatever that’s the game

 

[sambam94]

Bad timeout Payton, now Cowboys can pass on 2nd down. big mistake.

why? incomplete stops the clock

Dallas D playing lights out.

The rules have change and teams have to get faster in a lot of areas now. I can't believe BB fell behind the times, he usually draft ahead or par with the rules.
Dallas is showing all how to play D in this era and you need speed, lots of it.

I care about the Patriots. I don’t care about the ramblings of some internet joker.

Brady throws a game ending pick like Brees did there, it's cliff talk all day.... Wonder if Kellerman will talk about the Brees cliff tomorrow....

Jason will be clapping in the locker room after this.

 

[Joey007]

Wow. A team played defense tonight.

 

[Wheelman]

why? incomplete stops the clock

It was 2:03 when the timeout was called. The clock is going to stop anyways at the 2 minute warning. So you can pass now. If Payton had let it go down to 2 minute warning, now the cowboys might run it to be safe. Instead it's a free pass play for the Cowboys.

I watched the Bruins game and then did a couple of quick things. I turned on the NFL game just in time to see Prescott screw up and give the ball away to the Saints. So, I basically watched the game just long enough to go from "Dak, what the hell were you thinking? You just gave the win to the Saints!" to "Drew, what the hell were you thinking? You just gave the win to the Cowboys!".

Haha you care what Kellerman says. Too bad there’s no weight lifting exercise that can keep hack media members from staying out of your dome.

 

[Wheelman]

Sure Ian, and Josh Gordon is going to be benched for the 1st quarter....

 

[Deus Irae]

Just as an aside, partially in response to a discussion about pressure v. sack in another thread:

That last few minutes of the game shows us the benefits of:

Penalties called on opponents
Sacking the QB
Forcing the strip sack
Pressuring the QB
Interceptions
Obvious penalties missed by the officials

From a 'teaching' angle, it had pretty much everything in about a 5 minute bundle.

Impressive effort by Dallas and refreshing to see a defense-dominated battle for a change.

Dam. Froob called that one. Good one @Froob .

Ahem. haha
