Speaking of my Cowboys, they aren't ready for the high powered Eagles. Looks like the Texans are having their way, just like the Colts did last week in the first half. Wake up Dallas!! Damn!

[M-technik-3]

Dallas acting like the win over a 1-10-1 Texan's is a huge thing. They really should be embarrassed by their performance.

wow the Lion's just beat the Vikings. sad.

Giants 1-8-1 against NFC East opponents including last season. Ooof.

[EDWYER]

Perfect timing for our bye week. We should have 4 starters back for the 18th that were out last Sunday. Let's go!

[Josh-PA]

eagles looked good in all 3 phases of the game again. Injuries are starting to mount up though.

You don't seem to have very much confidence in your team.

OBJ is a grade 1 dipshit. He was never going to be ready this year. As usual, his whole act is smoke and mirrors....obviously he got some shady doctor to "clear him" when he is nowhere near ready. Why would ANYONE sign this guy to play only in the playoffs? Not only that, he is so dense that he is waiting to sign with a team until basically the end of the year and won't even have a chance to learn any small amount of that team's playbook. No, he would rather parade around "taking visits" to these teams like he is the top WR in the game.

This guy has always been a jackass and overrated. It's 2022, not 2015 Odell. Yeah, he was good for the Rams last year....how can you not be when they are all covering Cooper Kupp.

I hope he just goes away to be honest.....

Here, I don't know what you guys are really arguing. I get you are going to hide behind your records and you should to a point, they both have had nice years. However, the Packers beat the Cowboys and the Eagles were frankly really unimpressive against the Packers. However, it's not their fault we have a fucking moron as a defensive coordinator. I wouldn't be shocked if either team is one and done in the playoffs.

I'm really not impressed that much by any of the NFC teams regardless of record. That being said, it doesn't really matter...there is no dominant team this year which means any of these teams have an equal chance. I think the 49ers would have been a strong pick until Jimmy G and Deebo got hurt....but who knows, maybe Purdy will be really damn good.

I want to reserve judgment until we play the Vikings again in a couple weeks....as a Week 1 game means nothing in terms of how a team is the rest of the season. I will say...you better hope the Pack don't sneak in. They are a completely different team than early in the year with Christian Watson and if ARod can get his thumb healthier....however, we still have a dipshit as DC.

I would be rooting for the Cowboys, though, because of Mike McCarthy. Amazing class act of a coach and person.

It's not about "lack of confidence".
It's about my ability to to see and admit a glaring hole in our otherwise dominant team.
Just because a team like the Texans gave us a run, doesn't mean Dallas ain't ready.
this is a "any given Sunday professional sport".
The Broncos damn near pulled the upset against the Chiefs too.
But in the end, all that counts is the W.

We had 363 rushing yards, 500 total yards of offense, 10 more first downs, 10 mins+ more time of possesion, +2 turn over differential and a 14pt lead going into garbage time... all that with our special teams coverage units taking the Sunday off and you guys faking injuries all 2nd half because your defense was so gassed. Really unimpressive.

I'd be really surprised if the Eagles didn't take home the super bowl trophy this season. They look so complete and just dominate games.

[JMcLellan]

Can I vent on my Vikings team? Ok I'm doing it.

I wish the Vikes record was more like 6 wins, 7 wins at max then I would be expecting less from them down the stretch. To have 10 wins makes me think they could actually make a run this year. Their defense is horrific statistically, but most games situationally (redzone, late in games, etc) they have been able to step up and make big plays. Yesterday, their defense couldn't do anything and made Goff look like a hall of famer.

Weird things during the game yesterday:
- Vikes allowed 2 long TD passes on blown coverage plays, both attributed to our safeties being dumb-- doubtful this happens if Harrison Smith is playing
- Dalvin Cook's fumble, what was he trying to do, and what was that play call? The Vikes were 1st and goal on the 3 yard line. It looked like Cook got the ball and just stood their waiting for the defender to slap the ball out of his hands
- Several obvious running plays where the Lions defense blitzed a cornerback or linebacker and they got through and tackled us for a loss-- it was too easy for the Lions on those plays
- Coach O-Connell going for it on 4th down and called an up the middle run and got stuffed
- We score a late 4th quarter TD and were down by 8. There was 2:45 ish left in the game and we have 2 timeouts left, and the coach decides to kick an onside kick???? We basically gave them the ball almost in field goal range. Should have kicked it off for a touchback and not give away all those free yards to the Lions
- not that it mattered but the replays indicate that Justin Jefferson was not out of bounds on that long catch-- is that not reviewable??? It looked like his heal was up and didn't touch the line. Should have been a TD

Good for the Lions though. They came out and played. The fake punt play was amazing, and then sealing the game on the 1st down conversion to Sewell....heck yeah that was some bad ass football there.

How about you give credit where credit is due? You and the world watched DAK drive, March or whatever you want to call it, damn near 100 yards to win the game late on the Fourth. That was clutch AF!!!

Also. Every Team should be worried about our DEFENSE... Period.

I don't think you can have it both ways. Eagles drove down the field with ~2mins left in the colts game and scored the game winning touchdown and you called it out as "barely beat"

To me nothing changed this week. Eagles/Dallas are for real in the NFC and Bills/Chiefs/Bengals are for real in the AFC. Home field and the #1 seed are going to be hugely important coming down the stretch. If we can beat the Bears on Sunday, that Dec 24th game would be for the division and #1. Should be a heck of a game.

It was supposed to be a screen pass to Hockenson, I think. Along the lines of USC defense, I think coach Pete Carol made a guest call, just like he did in the Superbowl . . .

Love's fifth year salary next year would be around $20 million.....no way anyone would pay him that to sit on the bench. He might be worth a 3rd round pick at most if they could trade him.

[TheWatchGuy]

While that game yesterday was ugly, I wasnt really sweating it. This year's Cowboys Team is different from anything weve had in a long time. That was a game that past Cowboys teams lose. Every year, they have one of those garbage performances against a bad team and cant pull out the victory. Yesterday, they played bad for about 58 minutes, but won the game in the last 2 minutes.

The more concerning thing is the injuries. Steele going out for the season hurts. Josh Ball was giving up pressures at a high rate, including the interception where his guy got to dak before he even finished his drop back. Losing Anthony Brown hurt our secondary, and Diggs getting banged up yesterday is worst case scenario. And our big run stuffing DT Hankins getting hurt was allowing the Texans to run up the middle until Pierce went out. Hopefully Tyron Smith is able to go for the Eagles game, and we can slide Tyler Smith or Jason Peters over to RT. At CB and DT, we just need to hope our guys can step up.

Brah. You had the second best defense in the league and we easily scored 33 on you (and our backup QB carved you guys).

Also, as I said, our DC is a moron and will be fired after the year….he invited Hurts to run. It’s been an issue all year with the wrong scheme against the wrong QB.

Again, you guys won’t be going to the SB but enjoy the cool division title banner.

That’s all clickbait. He isn’t going anywhere this off-season and Rodgers will be back for at least one more year.

He doesn’t get that next year. It’s his fourth year. They have to pick up the option by a certain date though in 2023. They will have Rodgers one more year for sure….

Correct.....I was hoping to get rid of him sooner.
