Monday Night Football - Cowboys at Bills Thread

Tony Romo with a career high 4 INT looking worse than Rex Grossman. Losing 17-7, we better get it together in the second half otherwise this will go as one of the most inexcusable upset.

Considering the 4 picks, being down by 7 only is pretty good. Defense is playing well tonight.

A lot has to do with Buffalo fans being rowdy tonight being home for MNF for the first time in 13 years. This game sort of reminds me of last year Falcons at Saints monday night game. Combine with the fact that this is a trap game for us. Hopefully we got the message in that locker room and we need to rely on our second half surge to get that win tonight. Props to our defense for only giving up 3 points. Lets go Cowboys.

Could've had 5 INTs in that first half. Here in the 1st posession of the second half, he should have had another one.

Too bad we didn't score the TD. Now we need our defense to come up with more stops. We can't let Buffalo score anymore.

Especially after 4 picks, with this banged up D, we need to be running the ball on 1st and 2nd down. Just wear them down. We are getting too pass happy.

And I don't know why Brad put his helmet on. Tony can throw 10 picks, as long as we have a chance to win, he's not going anywhere.

And let me say again, after just watching another return TD (who needs offense when they are returning INTs and Kick-offs for TD) our special team coverages (KOs and punts) SUCKS!

If we can't make a rookie QB ook unconfortable, what will Brady look like next week? Not even close to getting one INT so far.

Thank you Hatcher for getting that sack.

Time running out though? Still down 8.

That fumble would have been huge.....their defense has stopped us all game long. This is a do or die drive, we need that elusive TD.

They are already in position to make it a 2 score game.

This game has looked like one of those games you scratch off since the 1st quarter. We looked psyched out since the 1st quarter.

GOOOOO NEWMAN!!!!!!!!!!!1

So, Tony fumbles it, they march down. Our defense makes the play and almost scores. Are we gonna regret not scoring?

First play after the big play, are we finally going to stop turning it over Tony?

Nope.

Interception #5.

4th and 7, Buffalo about to punt. Down 8, 4 minutes to go. Shall I call it ballgame and go to bed or watch the horrow show to completion?

Is there much doubt as to what is about to happen? My gut says one more turnover would be about what we should expect to finish the game.

But let's see if there is ANY magic in Tony tonight.

Here we goo...

Is it Grossman underneath those uniform and helmet? I have a feeling Romo will throw #6 to ice this.
