I think Dallas is gonna get in the endzone to end the half, not good. We need to hold to 3.

14-7 Packers as Porter stole one away from Harries. Halftime and the Raiders are still in it. But they're BAAAD.

Jordan is NOT a running back.

The SD-Tenn game has been pretty brutal today, at least 6 injury timeouts including both starting QB's and Antonio Gates (back or hip). Gates was back at the end of the half. Vince Young was back in after a bizarre injury where he handed off the ball then turned to watch where the runner went and didn't see Merriman coming and ran right into him. He was out of the game late in the half though. Rivers got hit in the knee/leg and went to the lockeroom, but came back to the sideline before the half

It was Kerry Collins vs Billy Volek there for a while and not a good return to Tennessee for Volek. Threw an INT on a screen play where he was no where near the receiver, could have easily had another INT. And he got sacked. LT got called on unsportsmanlike conduct and K Birounas yanked a 29 yard FG wide.

I wouldn't even call that "losing his cool" if it wasn't for the ridiculous rules the NFL have trying to prevent anyone from showing any emotion whatsoever.

Samkon Gado with a 20 yard TD run. The only thing the Dolphins have been able to do this year is run the ball.

That wasn't a terrible call at all. They finally got a shot of it and McCown was totally defenseless and out of the play. I am rather disappointed in Jenkins for nailing him blindsided like that when they guy is basically walk-jogging along. If that had been done to Favre the world would be in an uproar right now.

If the QB is running down the field trying to make a tackle, he's fair game! And he was barely even hit! Damn Lions! Stop somebody!!!!!

NO! So Jenkins should just allow McCown to waltz through and make the tackle? NO! You hit people! This is football! Favre wouldn't be that stupid to get hit like that!

Ok, maybe you need to see the play again. As I said, he was not running downfield to make a play. He was jogging so slowly it was almost a walk, and he had very little intention of trying to make a play. As you can see from most shots of that play, it clearly didn't happen anywhere in the area of where the play started, went, or ended. It was a penalty at the very least.

Sometimes teams just don't play as well as they should or normally do, like Green Bay last week.

It's just one of those days for Dallas combined with Detroit play their A-game. Though it will be funny to hear Dallas fans who are worried and want people fired when they call NFL Radio this week win or lose.

LOL. Honestly, if we lose this game it doesn't mean a thing. How many teams in history have made it through the regular season with one loss? But still, after the late season meltdown of the past few seasons I REALLY want a win here...

I heart Jason Witten. Of all the great/very good tight ends in Cowboys history, he's definitely the best...

I agree it should be a penalty, but it shouldn't wipe out a TD return. As you said, the play was nowhere near what was going on the field for a TD. How does that cancel out a TD??

Exactly. That is somewhat how I felt about the Packers loss last week. Not the end of the world. BUT, guys who call into sports radio, they don't see thing very clearly usually and certain things just lead to entertaining calls from the melodramatic.

It's a rather big penalty, so allowing the TD and enforcing the penalty on the kickoff is a crappy way to go about things too. And it goes that way for any penalty by the scoring team really. It may have been away from the play, but it is still a penalty by the team scoring, so therefore the play doesn't count. Giving the Packers the ball, minus 15 yards from where the play happened, is a lot better then saying it is Oakland ball and acting like the INT never happened.

I haven't seen the play, but I refuse to believe that Ed made a terrible call. I think it is way more likely that a homer fan isn't pleased with a correct ruling by the greatest ref in the history of sports.

I'm surprised to hear that(from both you and Jeeber). Green Bay and Dallas generally appear to be head and shoulders above the rest of the NFC and it seems to me that home field advantage for either team would be critical. Not that a loss means that you go nuts about firing people, but the semi-indifference towards a loss.

Well, even if we lose we're still a game up on the Packers...

A better way to go is to not call it a penalty at all and let the football players do what they're paid to do and that's hit people! Bigby was robbed of a touchdown.

And it sure does matter if Dallas loses today and loses #1 seed. They don't want any part of playing in Green Bay in January. TD Donald Lee! WOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
