Steelers versus cowboys game day thread

[NCanton Panther]

Romo is saying not kicking a field goal was correct because it might have been blocked. But this isn't high school. You need to be able to make a 30-something yard field goal in a dome, for Pete's sake.

That’s called living in your fears

Gilbert is better than Dalton right now. Dallas wishes they had Gilbert all along.

 

[pittbb80]

That was way too close

 

[TheSpecialSauce]

8-0 Baby!

8-0
Tomlin special

Dude played a hell of a game. Wasn't much of a difference between him and Ben today.

 

[NGPittCali]

8-0. Next.

Has some mobility which they need with their lousy O Line and throws a decent ball. They will win so,e games with him moving forward

McCarthy should have gone for it instead of kicking the FG. They had all the momentum at that time.

 

[pierre93]

Refs are so inconsistent and I'm sure if the roles were reversed most of you would be having conniption fits if dem stillers lost. The NFL is laughable and it's all about betting. Dallas covered and happy.

Yeah, that wasn't smart. Not like they needed more than a foot, and it's not like Dallas' defense has been good this year. You had to figure we would strike at least a few more times.

 

[revampedpanthers]

Why not bleed every second and call a TO?

The smart play would have been to do that and then throw the ball. I have no issue not kicking the fg as they almost blocked a bunch and chances of giving up a td with 30 seconds and no timeouts isn't very good. Can't give up a 30 pass that gets out of balance in that situation

Big Ben and Tomlin are both Future Hall of Famers. Haters gonna hate.

After that clustermuck I have zero issue in not kicking. I even said to myself - go for it. But when they went to line up I thought maybe they’d try to draw them offside then call a TO. But I figured a TO was coming regardless.

Well that was close but we pulled out the W. We looked healthy at the end of the game and move on 8-0.

Yep
If was too predictable all the usual suspect spewing their vitriol

it’s almost like there is something about a coach who never had a losing season in 15 years , won a Super Bowl and went to another
