2021 Season, Week 6 | Gameday Chatter Thread | Cowboys @ Patriots | 10/17/21

[Chocolate Lab]

I wonder if over the bye they seriously look at starting McGovern somewhere. Or maybe even get Steele and Collins playing. I have a feeling they're close, but it is hard to make that move when you're winning.

 

[Genghis Khan]

Um great block and great catch on last drive. It's not all about big yardage. Dude is still clutch.

Seriously. 5 catches 55 or so yards. A couple of important catches.

They aren't all going to be all pro days, but this isn't what not showing up looks like.

Especially when the offense has so many options.

Hell, he only had 3 catches for 50 or 60 yards in the past two home games.

Nobody screams about his home / road splits when his home games aren't eye popping.

It's confirmation bias and it's retarded.

First win vs the Patriots since 1996 and the first in New England since 1987

 

[bbgun]

CeeDee Lamb 9 for 149 and 2 TDs

We want to reconsider the Lamb vs Kupp debate?

Kupp has a longer body of work, and a knee that was operated on.

 

[Hoffa]

Fat Mike is going to cost this team an important game if he continues to go full 'tard with his clock management/crunch time decisions. The timeout with 24 seconds left in regulation was absurd but will be forgotten because they won.

Also idiotic to kick a 51-yard FG on 4th and 1 when they had gone for it on every other 4th down in the game.

 

[NoDak]

Bro watch that play. I have no idea if Diggs was trying to avoid colliding with the safety, but he wasn’t really beat at all. He didn’t bite real hard on the double love and was right with him until it looked like he thought the safety was going to make a play, or maybe he was thinking tip drill mode.

I thought he was beaten badly, but just watched it a few times, he’s there the whole way and bails at the last second.

Diggs did bite on the first move, but recovered quickly and had underneath coverage. The safety was over the top and should have made a play. At the very least, made the tackle.

 

[Smitty]

Against Belichick you really can't give a crap about style points as long as you get the W.

We were like 0-6 or something insane against Belicheat, I’ll take any win on the road against him.

[Smitty]

I was at that game, Roy ran right by where I was sitting, about 6 rows up.

We did jack shit all day - I was sure it was just a garbage time TD we scored to make it 20-14.

 

[Texas Ace]

Still not sure what the fuck the safety was doing. He had no one else to cover. Just made zero sense.

Sometimes players just take bad angles and that's exactly what happened there.

Which reminds me, with the way this team is causing turnovers right now I cannot wait for Donovan Wilson to come back.

Not only will he give the team a much needed improvement in play in the secondary, he also was proving to be quite the turnover machine himself last year.

[Cotton]

I was all over the place jumping around on this play. That motherfucker is so fast.

 

[NoDak]

First win vs the Patriots since 1996 and the first in New England since 1987

Shame on you for putting a big gif of that fag in our victory thread. Especially one of him winning a superbowl that should have been ours.

Wilson played today.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

Sort of, but I've never seen so many bullshit calls in a single game. That game wasn't even close to called equally. We had to overcome the most biased officiating I think I have ever witnessed. They didn't even try to hide it.

I think that was the most crooked game I've seen since that Superbowl where Seattle got screwed against the Steelers. I have no explanation.

 

[lostxn]

I agree. Some questionable calls today.
They've been mostly sharp this season otherwise, but they have a lot to clean up (great time to have a bye week).
On another note, I believe the offense was missing Gallup today.

Well, you play Gallup and you take Wilson off the field who had been clutch AF. However, you then put CeeDee in the slot where he's just unfair.

 

[roughneck266]

Put some mayonnaise on it.

No sir. Had sugar free strawberry ja. Not sure I can do mayo without spewing.

 

[Texas Ace]

Man, am I the only one on this board who remembers these games correctly?



You guys would all be lost without me.



That Roy Williams interception basically won us the game. The garbage time score was the Bledsoe to Terry Glenn TD a few plays earlier.

I remember I didn't even celebrate that touchdown because I figured that it was a garbage time score.

But the Roy pick? I jumped all over the living room.

 

[Genghis Khan]

Btw, our second win this season after losing at halftime.

Again, that never happened under Garrett. It's now happened twice this season.

 

[NoDak]

Fat Mike is going to cost this team an important game if he continues to go full 'tard with his clock management/crunch time decisions. The timeout with 24 seconds left in regulation was absurd but will be forgotten because they won.

There was confusion on which down it was. Both the TV (yes, I know he doesn't see that) and the sideline markers were showing 3rd down. It was corrected after the timeout was called to 4th down.
