Week 15 Gameday Chatter | Cowboys vs. Eagles | 12/14/2014

I think were off to a much better start this time around.

Early games suck. Guess I will watch Johnny Football.

Can someone explain to me why Fox is covering an AFC vs. AFC game, and why I've previously this season seen CBS covering an NFC vs. NFC game?

I also saw CBS doing a game that was NFC @ AFC, which is traditionally a Fox game.

What's up with this?

Some new thing they started doing with certain games this year.

It's a weird flex schedule they are doing this year. Don't ask me why.

Same.

Damn what a hit on Dalton

Dumb penalty by Mingo.

A lot on the line for Cowboys coaches, too

PHILADELPHIA -- When a team loses, oftentimes coaches fall back on a lack of execution as the reason for the defeat.

Rarely will they say they had a bad plan for a game.

The Philadelphia Eagles soundly beat the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving. They whipped the Cowboys on defense. They controlled the tempo on offense. It was hardly a game.

Some of it had to do with a lack of execution. The defensive players got out of their gaps too often and Eagles running back LeSean McCoy had a big day. The offensive players could not win enough one-on-one battles across the board.

A lot of the talk around the Cowboys leading into Sunday night’s first-place battle with the Eagles has had to do with exacting some revenge. But it’s only come from the players’ perspective.

The Cowboys coaches have a lot on the line Sunday night, too.

“When you coach, that reflects who you are,” defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli said. “Our players reflect our coaching and our teaching. It’s important we come in and we solidify our gaps. Just keep teaching and helping the players as much as we can.

“It’s a reflection on all of us, not just the players. It's reflection on us, too. We are part of this thing. It’s not like I call the defense, ‘This should work.’ We are instrumental in the execution of the defense and the keys and the alignments. They work together.”

Call me crazy, but I like the Browns uniforms, although not the brown pants with brown jerseys.

I also think the bengals have one of the better helmets, although the rest of the uniform is ugly.

Fajita fries were terrible. We lose.

In the last 20 years, it's amazing how many Top 5 draft picks have been blown by the bengals, Browns and raiders.

Not a horse collar.

Nah, they are just fries with fajita seasoning on them. They used to sell the brand name Fajita Fries, and now Oreida made their version, and since they don't sell the good ones anymore we tried them. Just awful.

Best sniper movie of all-time?

Yeah, doesn't sound so good.

Ore Ida is horrible.

About what can be expected. All Shanahan's kid is going to do is dust off the playbook he had Griffin run.
