That's some good stuff...getting a little dusty in here. I'm not even a Cowboys fans and I was almost brought to tears after seeing Emmit hug Moose Johnston. Damn.
1. Donte Stallworth 2. Andre Davis 3. Josh Reed 4. Antonio Bryant 5. Deion Branch I still don't know why Ashley Lelie or Javon Walker went above Davis, Reed or Bryant.
Ok... so basically you said that Dillon and Smith have the same ypc because Dallas has good luck with their schedule. I am in no way familar with the Bengals, so I am open to some mistakes following this sentence. Do the Bengals have their whole o-line intact? We haven't had ours at all, and they don't even want to block the way their suppose too. Yet, Emmit has still produced about the same as Correy. Plus, do the Bengals have Robert Thomas at FB. Without him, Emmitt would have the record 5yrs ago. That's right, when Thomas was born, he jinxed the Cowboys so bad with his inability to block that Emmitt missed out on at least 1,000 yds. In all seriousness, Thomas sucks. I don't know the Bengals FB, but he can't be much worse than Thomas.
Wow... that was a hit. Hope that guy is okay. Congrats to Emmitt! I hate the 'girls but he's a good guy.
Bengals have the best blocking FB in the NFL. Eddie George sucks now because Neal isn't there. Dillon is so much better than Smith now its not even comparable.
Thanks for the teams, as well. Andre Davis isn't doing as well as Bryant stat wise. Is he injured as well? This may just be like Emmitts record. Stallworth and Davis don't have the stats like Bryant, yet they are better. Just like some people think Emmitt isn't the best despite his record. But that's just your preference, and thats ok. Bryant is also doing better than Reed, even though I think Reed should be doing better with Bledsoe.(Sp?) These are all my opinions. I don't know rookies very well. I'm sure they all have great potential to be great, but I'm just going by stats. That's how I usually chose who is better. Emmitt is the best RB because he has the record. Dallas is better than the Bengals because they have a better record. I know there are other things to consider, but that's how I base a good portion of my arguments.
nooooo ... I was saying that Galloway is more apt to getting big "fluke-ish" plays off of bad Ds. Emmitt would be too if he was the rb he used to be or had a better supporting cast. I could care less about ypc. Dillon is better than Emmitt in this point in their careers. Dillon is having the box stacked against him constantly because the Bengals actually have worse wrs and qbs than Dallas does. Their OL is as bad or close to as bad as the Dallas OL as well.
The thing with all of these players, they aren't even starting. They are the 3rd WRs on their teams. You can't compare stats of a #2 to a #3. Just like how you can't compare how much better Jim Brown and Barry Sanders are than Emmitt Smith because one got bored with football, and the other was forced out by a crappy organization.
That's ok. I feel that Dillon is better since he is younger. But if he's so much better, why is he doing the same as an old rb? I don't think most teams go into Dallas thinking we're going to start passing, also. Holmgren(sp?) did NOT want Emmitt to get the record, but you see what happened. I am ok with saying the Bengals have worse WR's and QB's, but someone thinks their rookies wr is better than ours. (hehe..sorry, couldn't help it.) edit: Forget that last statement. I was getting mixed up with teams. I may have done better had I gotten the teams like I asked, instead of looking on my own into something I don't know much about. It was almost bound to happend.
Haha....so they aren't good enough to start. In that case, Troy Hambrick is better than Correy Dillon because he's been doing well when he's in, but he doesn't start. edit: Hmm...Bryant just made an OUTSTANDING catch. And he may have helped win the game. edit2: Never mind. We had a penalty on Dallas that made the game over. Still, Bryant is doind his "usual."
Uhmm...no. Their teams just have MUCH better WRs than the Cowboys have. And who knows about Hambrick, he can turn into a pretty good RB. He just hasn't had the chance.
I was mostly joking about that comment. (note the tongue. Wasn't flat out kidding, but I knew why they weren't starting.) I don't know much about all these WR's, like I said, but our top 2 wr's are not average, imo. Everything I've seen from Bryant has shocked me. If his play is average, then we have some pretty good WR's in the league. Not to mention that most WR's don't have problems with their QB's.
The link above shows the top WR's in the NFL by yds. Galloway is 10th. With the guys in front of him, I noticed some things. The guys either were great WR's (Holt,Harrison) or/and they had a great QB. (Manning, Bledsoe, Warner, at times.) BTW, you may be wondering why Moss isn't here. I think they've yet to update it. I found he is ahead of Galloway, but only by a little. Bryant is also 31. Considering some of the leaders are TE's, I think Dallas does have some above average WR's.
Hmm...I seemed to get distracted and forgot one main thing: How do you think Chad did? I think he was so-so. He could have had another TD for the win in the end of the half, but he also could have had a INT. I don't think he was all that great, but I guess he did ok. However, he couldn't really prove much considering this was "just run the ball" day in Dallas.
Congratulations, Dallas! You're no longer the only team in NFL history that has ever lost to the Houston Texans! Welcome Jacksonville to your elite club!
My, how far the Cowboys have sunk, when their fans use the Bengals as an example of a team that they are better than. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! RC Cola, I may hate the Cowboys, but I tip my hat to you for staying true to your team.
Ignore...ignore..ignore.... Hmm...change to: Yes...I am the best. I like the way you talk. (btw, I was just joking about how all this talk has messed up my brain and makes me change what people say.)
Allright, I know I'm late, but I have a question. The penalty where the Dallas CB (Hawthorne) knocked the crap out of the receiver and got a penalty...the call was unneccesary roughness. The explanation was that the receiver nust be given the opportunity to come down with the ball and be able to run with it. I just saw it for what it was...a helluva hit...true football...now the problem I have is that the exact situation occured on the 3rd play to the end of the game when the Dallas receiver caught the ball in the air, was hit, and hit the ground without being given the same chance to run...what the hell was that? Any thoughts? I think the refs called a pretty piss poor game and that particular roughness call was a pity call for the poor sap that caught it...BTW, brilliant call by Holgrem...he realized the agitation between those two and knew that there would be some kind of penalty on the play...
I missed the play live, but saw it on replay. Looked like a good hit to me. I have a few problems with some of these rules where you can't be within 50 yds of a player during a certain time. I think they're pretty stupid. It doesn't seem to be "unnecesary roughness" either. If he wasn't rough, he would score a TD. Had he gone down, and then he hit them, then it would be ok. BTW, I thought it was Darren Woodson did the hit. (28) This would be like his 2nd or 3rd just like it, I think.
