Re: 2008 NFL season
Just like so say HOW 'BOUT THEM COWBOYS!!!!
Lets' face it that game should've been 41-23 for the Cowboys. The defensive pass interference call was obviously an offensive pass interfernece on the Eagles giving them the ball on the 1 yard line and Romo's gaff in the end zone added up to 14 gimme points for the Eagles. It was a great game either way though. Westbrook and McNabb are freaking awesome I have to admit. Though I so wish a Cowboy had fallen on the ball after DeSean Jackson's boneheaded play on teh one yard line. What an idiot. The Cowboys are the class of the NFC though and likely the entire league. I might be crazy but the Cowboys just may have the best 1-2 punch at RB. Barber is a machine and Jones looks like he's half a step away from breaking huge runs every time he touches the ball. Witten = Clutch. Owens = Gamebreaker. Ware = Scary. Romo = MVP? Anyways if we want exciting Monday Nighters just put the Cowboys on all the time hahaha. Last year against Buffalo was insane and now this year.

The defensive pass interference was a bad call but there was a blatant facemask on Westbrook that went uncalled a few plays earlier (as well as another later in the game). Would have been 15 yards. Those evened out.
Romo's mistake was his own fault, he fumbled it. you can't say "that shouldn't have counted". DeSean jackson made a boneheaded play & the ref should have seen that.
Marion Barber's a good RB, & who knows how good Felix Jones will be. TO is TO. Romo as MVP is a reach.

The facemask calls missed or not would not have given the Eagles the the ball on the 1 yard line anyways. That's all I'm saying. That blatantly wrong pass interference call basically gave the Eagles 7 points. And I agree, Romo's fumble was his own fault. There was no reason he shoud've dropped that ball whatsoever. It was another gimme 7 points for the Eagles. That's my point. The Eagles had 14 gimme points handed to them. Without those its 41-23. That's all I'm saying. The Cowboys didn't get any gimme points.
MBIII is better than good. TO is TO yes. He's amazing 
I don't care what anyone thinks of him. And Romo a potential MVP a stretch? Why? He had MVP numbers last year if it weren't for Brady. It's not as big a stretch as people would like to think. People are so against admiting Romo's actually a damn good QB simply because he's a Cowboy. Plus he's getting better and he's so far the only QB in history that seems to be able to keep TO happy. That in itself is worthy of an MVP nod:haha:.
I'm totally excited to see Felix Jones progress. The guy just makes things happen. At least so far in his very short career.

Cowboys fans are always a little too arrogant. Especially for a team that hasnt won a playoff game in over 10 years.

You know what man. The last ten years mean shit when it comes to today. Credit to the Giants for peaking at the right time but how and where am I being a little too arrogant. Please explain. They are the class of the NFC according to most. Does that make everyone who thinks this arrogant. the Cowboys ust beat the Eagles on Monday night and I'm excited for it. They have arguebaly the most talent in the league and here you are calling me an arrogant fan simply for puting it out there. Whatever. Never once have I been an arrogant ass on here. At least when it comes to the NFL thread. Maybe Giants fans shouldn't act like they "knew all along" cause you as much as everyone else was shocked with last years win.

The last ten years does mean something when it shows a pattern, especially the last couple years, of a team that doesnt finish. The Cowboys have a shit load of talent. But they havent played as a team. Who knows, this could be their year.
And I can honestly 100% say that I believed last year, all year long, that the Giants could win it all. I am sure some on the NFL thread would remember. It wasnt just being a homer, I felt all along like they were very close, and if they could get significant contributions from the rookie class, that they had just as much of a chance as anyone. So no, I wasnt shocked when they won it all.
Dont take offense to what I said. I think the Cowboys, from the team, to ownership, to many fans are very arrogant. But I dont mean that you shouldnt be excited about a big win. It was a big win.
Re: 2008 NFL season
I just don't like when people try to "discount" points (with few exceptions, like the SD/Broncos game)... that shit always balances out in the end. The safety shouldn't have bit on the pump fake for TO's 70 yard TD so that shouldn't count. Cowbioys got lucky with a kickoff return so that shouldn't count. Or McNabb shouldn't have fumbled in the 4th Qtr so that shouldn't count. And the Giants wide receiver shouldn't have caught the football on his head last year in the Super Bowl so that shouldn't count therefore they are not SB champs.
It all counts. It's like Bill Parcells says about "You are what your record says you are." In otherwords "The score was what the score says it was." Cowboys won by 4.
TO is a great WR, that's why I said TO is TO. Barbers was really good in that game, but I didn't watch Cowboys game 1 so I'm not going to judge him off 1 MNF game. As for Romo, when you have TO, Witten, Barber etc it's like Matt Leinert was at USC, a QB with good people around him. He isn't great, keeps on proving it game after game.

You're completely missing my point. Romo simply put the ball on the ground for no reason. Nobody ran into him not even his own guy. He simply dropped the ball after he had full control. Try and follow me here. I'm not discounting things that take place in a game. I'm simply saying the Eagles were handed 14 gimme points. Maybe the game wasn't quite as clsoe as the score indicated. Every hear that phrase before?
And Romo is second or leads in most all QB stats over the last 2 seasons. Only behind Brady. Bledsoe couldn't do what Romo is doing with the same personal. People are in denial man. Romo is good deal with it. You don't throw for over 250 yards on a consitent basis if you're no good. You don't throw for 36 TD's in a season(Owens or not) if you're no good. Aikman never did it and he had Novaceck, Irvin and Smith. Wow.
