OFFICIAL GDT - COWBOYS @ PACKERS!!!

[Bayliss]

They were just saying how little passing yards Romo has right now. That is because Barber has run more this half than he did the last two games. They are trying to slow the game down a bit tonight.

[FINtastic]

I would like to see Romo's QB rating get above Crayton's though

[Bayliss]

I wish Romo would realize that turnovers are one of the most important stats in the league. He cost the Cowboys 14 points against the Eagles with his dumbness.

[Kirobaito]

Good alertness by Adams there. Just draw Jones here and take the 3.

[Dtownsfinest]

Romo is holding the ball wayyyyy too long.

[FINtastic]

You know Romo doesn't seem as good so far this year when the play breaks down. I wonder if that has anything to do with his "new approach to standing in the pocket".

[FINtastic]

Folk is so money, he doesn't even know he's money.

[FINtastic]

Ok, I'm just going to make a prediction and say this game comes down to a last second field goal. I just have a feeling with the way this game is going.

[Kirobaito]

Well, we get the ball to start the 3rd. I think that will be a very important possession.

Thinks coulda gone a whole lot worse, as we did not play particularly well.

[Bayliss]

The Cowboys got a field goal out of it but Romo cost them four more points on that possession. If it aint there that close to the end you have to throw it out of the back of the end zone.

[BGMaverick9]

Just need to get points or set field position with this first drive and you're well in the driver's seat.

[Dtownsfinest]

Can't complain about a 13-6 lead on the Packers. I just feel we've left about 2 td's up there that we should have.

I'm arguing with you roommates right now. Theyr'e trying to tell me that Romo can't play well under pressure. its just been this season. Previous two years he's been damn good under pressure.

give the Pack D a little credit...they've got TO shut down. Garrett is gonna work some stuff up here during half time and I predict they'll open it up a bit more in the second half. there's really no reason to pass it when Barber is averaging like 6ish yards per carry and Felix Jones is bustin out long TDs.

i applaud this approach. i'm betting they'll work in some good play action here in the 3rd.

Packers D is great or so I hear but I haven't seen it other than the redzone. Seems like they have about 5 corners out there at all times when we get in the redzone area.

they've sacked romo ...3 times? or 2? they're making our O-line look silly on those passing downs.

I disagree, Tony is holding on to the ball way too long IMHO.

[Kirobaito]

Come on, guys, stop the run a little bit.

I agree. O-Line has been great. Romo is just holding the ball far too long.


Great stop by the defense. Especially after giving up that big play.

[Kirobaito]

Good job keepin' them out of the endzone. Time to ramp it up on O, now.

[Flacolaco]

Blown coverage is a good way to take an unsurmountable lead

[FINtastic]

Great play by Austin, we really needed that.

[Kirobaito]

Spotted at the 4? BS!

[Kirobaito]

Now that's a drive

[Flacolaco]

Game over. GB is also very overrated.

[FINtastic]

Barber has been the MVP tonight, he's been great out there.

[Kirobaito]

It's weird how it feels like GB's been able to get what they want on offense tonight but somehow only has 9 up on the board.

[mkat]

defense is looking SOLID.

what i think they need to do now is get felix jones in there...he'd run wild all over that tired out packers defensive line.

good play on the Romo -> Austin...that was what we've been waiting for.

I don't know about that. Only position I have question marks about are at qb and he's been playing fine. Maybe the corners but i'd like to think the tandem of Woodson and Harris is one of the best in the league. They already have the best linebacking core in the league. I think they're the real deal. Their defensive line might be questionable but I hear KGB is hurt. Kampman is a beast.

Not really. To me anyway. Especially after last Monday. Seems like we've contained them pretty good. Not sure what the stats say.

[FINtastic]

Flaco, I don't think you are allowed to call all 13 teams we play against overrated.

[Bayliss]

Here's an odd stat from Marion Barber:

In 2005 and 2007 he fumbled the ball 3 times each season. In 2006 and 2008 (so far) he has no fumbles.

[Flacolaco]

The packers are giving him plenty of time...he just can't make anything of it

[alexamenos]

ratliff! is that a sack per game for the 7th round pick?

[FINtastic]

Nice to see us actually get a clean sack where the quarterback went down quick.

[Bayliss]

Pacman almost makes guys get flags with all of his zigzagging.

You can't expect guys to block for you when you go horizontal two or three times. Even if it is unintentional it is two hard to "stop" when blocking like that.

Of course, he's had a couple of close calls tonight. Tony Curtis saved his butt on one tonight, and he lost the ball on another but gathered it back real quick on another.

[Flacolaco]

Why do special teams players celebrate like they just scored a touchdown, when they tackled the guy on the FIFTY and they've already lost the game.

There is too much of that in football. Way to go, you did your job. You don't see basketball players yelling and screaming and pumping their fists when they make a free throw...

[Bayliss]

Romo once again held on to the ball too long. He pumped when he should have just thrown it away.
