This should be a game we should put away early if Homo is hurt. On that note like always it will be a close game and we will pull out and be 3-0.

We have to give Dez, the same attention Larry got. Well more actually because Larry got off on us smh. I hope Haslett is dialnig up some nice blitz packages to use on Romo. you never like to see guys get hurt but if he dresses on Monday. He takes the risk and the punishment!!

**** the Cowboys.

Landry might be coming back for this game. Miles Austin is out, Felix Jones may be out, and Romo will most likely play. Their offensive line is putrid, this has the makings of a W for us, but its in Dallas, home opener, Monday Night, I'm not so sure.

I found it interesting that Bowen implied that there isn't any drop off from Kitna to Romo and that guys want to play for Kitna.

Guys want to play for Beck too but he still sucks...

Can you all all the above to the Poll

I'm feeling pretty good about this one. I think they have been holding Landry back for this one.

Cooley says he is feeling the best he has in a long time.

We passed game 1
We ran game 2

This team is just getting ramped up. The best is still to come.

GAMEDAY!

I'm pumped!!

Interesting breakdown from the Dallas site:

Before you get bent out of shape about who the author gives the edge to, read the Dallas fans comments section.

The cynic in me says I wouldn't be surprised if we lost, but I'm hoping we win.

Tough loss. Rex really should have gotten rid of the ball on that last fumble. But with all the mistakes Dallas made, it shouldn't have even come to that IMO. Oh well, we'll see them again at our house.

Two bright spots:

1. We're still in first place.
2. We're one Grossman loss closer to John Beck.

Let's see what happens next week!

Given the mediocre offense the defense HAD to get a stop to win the game and they failed miserably. Deserved the loss after failing to recover ANY of FOUR FUMBLED SNAPS!!!!!!!!!!! How can that happen? How can you fail to recover ANY of them????

GET RID OF THE **** BALL REX! JUST THROW IT AWAY! You can't out run a linebacker.

Great graph over at Advanced NFL Stats. They have live Win Probability graphs throughout every game. When the Skins had Dallas at 3rd & 21 from the Cowboys 30 with 2:20 on the clock, the Skins had a Win Probability of 0.87. In other words, an 87% chance of winning. When the play ended, their Win Probability was 0.24.

That was a terrible call, which was compounded by the fact that DeAngelo Hall doesn't actually cover all that well.

Skins should have won that game against an injury-depleted Cowboys team that literally couldn't line up properly, run the proper routes or successfully snap the ball in shotgun.

Ok, I haven't seen any immature finger pointing analysis so here goes:
Demarcus Ware was offsides--frequently
On 3rd & 21 (all though I was screaming for more guys to drop back into coverage) there were multiple holds; I guess after the Orakpo holding call last year we weren't getting the call again
The Dallas field--I've never seen Hightower or Helu slip that much. They are both cut back runners and for the entire first half they couldn't cut back. Yes Dallas played on the same field and yes they could have changed cleets but it reminded me of when the Celtics used to change the nets at half time to prevent fast breaks.

It's not the first time I've seen players slipping and sliding on Jerry's turf. I remember it being rampant during the Super Bowl.

The refs missed potential holding calls on both teams. I remember twice when Trent Williams got beat by Ware and responded by diving from behind and grabbing Ware around the ankle. Neither time got called.

That's pretty d*mn interesting, I've never seen that before. Looking at all of Minnesota's games this year is just painful.

Yep, I kept tweeting stuff last night, saying "Ware was offsides" "Ware offsides again". He was offsides on just about every other pass play, and not one call. And don't tell me he got a great jump. The dude was offsides a second before the ball was snapped.

Yeah, I love Advanced NFL Stats. The guy who runs it was a frigging fighter pilot. Kind of a good retort to have for the inevitable "dooood u need 2 gt layed" or "u need 2 git a lyf" comments.
