RE: Giant Killers! Gameday Thread!
Cortez the Killer has been hitting his kickoffs better than any Cowboy kicker in the past several seasons.
I hate when we play these close games and then give up a big play.

RE: Giant Killers! Gameday Thread!
The way Greg Ellie was waving the ball out there and not tuccking it in I thought there was going to be a Leon Lett incident.

But, he was aware of the people behind him.
Nice pass to Glenn for the first down.

The screen is a TERRIBLE idea that close to the goal line.

Give me Witten....
Anyways, this is what happens when you put everything on your defense to stop a team from scoring a TD. I know the Cowboys just recovered a fumble on the 1 yard line, but it shouldn't have come down to that.

...sloppy play and some poor decisions by coaching.... I'll love the win, but this was one ugly game.

I agree completely murph....Another game where it's a hand-off and a cloud of dust. I don't understand why he's so old school when he's been marching up and down the field all game.

RE: Giant Killers! Gameday Thread!
Insane...I can't believe they kicked it either. What was the point of giving a possible block!! Why wouldn't a safety and free-kick??
And now they are looking like they are going to give up another long play... sheeshh.

RE:Giant Killers! Gameday Thread!
....
What was the worse call? Passing the ball on third down with the Giants on defense and around a minute left...with the Giants having no timeouts or not going for it on 4th and 2 inches?
Parcells needs to get the corn cob out of his ass and get into the game.

Cortez w/a Billy Cundiff-esque redemption. Great win, to survive all that. 4-2! We may have something here...

RE:Giant Killers! Gameday Thread!
Woah lets slow down on bashing the defense. They may not be a "superbowl" defense but they held the highest scoring offense in the nfl to 13 points. Yeah they gave up plays at the end but the game was already over if they didnt play well earlier.

Un-stinking-believable.... As murhp has said before williams a big hitter but his coverage skills stink, it seems.

RE: Giant Killers! Gameday Thread!
You can't take a safety there, because then a touchdown beats you. You just punt it and try to play some defense.

Do not just put the ball in the middle and kick it. Keep going. If you get to like the 10 fine but keep trying to get upfield.

Maybe he was, but the giants should have scored on two straight plays. On the receiver fell down, the other he caught it.

Good grief, hnow he's throwing it everywhere. And parcells is bitching about the call I think.

That pass pattern looked too deep. Like it was trying for the first down and not just 10 yards or so.

It might have been too deep, but Keyshawn was open.

RE: Giant Killers! Gameday Thread!
Parcells and williams is damn lucky today. It would have been nice to not have had the other one blocked. The bad thing is parcells goes in thinking...oh yeah..the strategy is great, we just can't have blocked fieldgoals. He's got on of the best arms in the business and lots of receivers and an all-pro tight end and he still thinks he has a super-bowl defense. Wake-up dude.

RE: Giant Killers! Gameday Thread!
I'm actually not trying to bash the defense. What I'm griping about is a coach who thinks in this day and age that your defense can protect small leads. There is a reason(imo) that all of the cowboys games have been so close.
One thing however, aikman was talking about the d-line being gassed. I actually thought that a rotation was put in place to keeps those guys fresh. And I thought I saw them gassed at the end of the redskins games as well.

And I completely agree with you....especially against the Giants.
And here's a question, .....Can't you call a timeout on defense? Obviously you can, but they appeared to desperately need it as the Giants were marching down the field. A TO might have helped them to regroup.
