Randle can't be counted on after his mandatory big first run.

worth a try, give him 10 carries, he might get 2 big runs.

And 8 shitty ones.

Man, how is it every other team solves this simple problem except us?

How to distribute carries to more than one back? Damned if I know.

Randle can't be counted on after his mandatory big first run.

How does anyone know that?

 

[ravidubey]

How does anyone know that?

In the carries he has received there is too much of a dropoff in production after his first fresh-legged run.

I think he needs more carries, period, whether he gains anything or not but only because we have no other choice.

Running backs take a while to get in a rhythm. That isn't accomplished by running once or twice in series then going off and waiting for another once or twice carry.

From what I've seen, Dunbar and Randle both have some explosiveness to them. However, it doesn't seem like either has the vision to be anything more than a change of pace back.

Today's Eagles-Seahawks game is one of those rare win-win games for the Cowboys.

Obviously it would be better for the Cowboys if the Eagles lost but even if the Eagles win it bumps the Seahawks outside the playoff 6.

Don't we already trump Seattle with a Tie Breaker? I would assume we'd still be ahead of them if they were 9-4.

it's the way the tiebreakers differ with 2-teams-with-same-record vs 3-teams-with-same-record.

h2h is not the first tiebreaker with 3 teams, conference record is. seattle wins this tiebreaker over dallas

That's exactly how I see it.

In fact, I actually think it's probably better for Philly to win, but I just can't bring myself to "cheer" for those bastards to win a game.

1000 posts or we lose today.

Let's do this.

Considering we have played better on the road, a wild card may actually be best for us.

Absolutely, I have little doubt we'd choke hard in Dallas. We can't bat the ball off the tee sometimes at home. We play at a different level on the road.

 

[boozeman]

A home playoff game? Might just go to Cabo again.

ESPN is doing a segment on the 2012 draft highlighting the Seahawks pursuit of Russell Wilson.

I had to rewind it a few times to replay the part where his then girlfriend freaks out screaming with the dog in her lap. Epic stuff.

Oh I'm definitely rooting for the Seahawks. I don't give a damn what [MENTION=21]Iamtdg[/MENTION] says.
