    The thing we should remember is that right now the December sked looks bad, but one or more of those teams is bound to suck by the time we get there - even the Cowboys.

    Anything can happen. Just ask OU.

    Check out the schedule for the final month. Brutal.

    I'm a fan, but I don't have much faith this year.


    I said 10-6 but neither of the above would shock me either. December has been terrible around here and this year's schedule isn't helping any.

    I'd be willing to give them an extra win or two if their coach wasn't Wade Phillips. That guy couldn't inspire me to jump in a swimming pool if I were on fire.
    everybody wants the most they can possibly get
    for the least they could possibly do

    serious question from an Eagles fan - how much do you really think the scoreboard is going to be an issue? Do you think it will happen a lot that someone hits it? or is it much ado about nothing? Seems awfully low to me but haven't watched a game there yet. What are your thoughts on it?

    I don't think it will be an issue. Like Bubba said, it isn't very wide. That Titans punter hit it on purpose. I would think most of your punts in a game would be directional, towards the corners. In which case, no one would hit the score board.

    And if it gets hit a couple of times during the season, they just replay the down. What is the big deal about that? I am sure downs have been replayed before because the ball hit a speaker or something.

    OK, nice win against a bad team. These are the teams you should beat if you expect to go anywhere.

    Looked a little shaky at times, but you can't complain about your starting QB having a career day in passing yards. Defense didn't really start forcing anything until the 2nd half. Too much waiting for Tampa to make a mistake. Looked pretty bad against the run. May get you beat against a good team.

    But overall pretty happy with this start to the season.

  • Romo:
    16-of-27 for 353 yards, 3 TDs, and 0 INTs

    nice

  • Solid performance! We have to work on that defense for next week though.

    Well that sucked. Great game but you can't turn the ball over that much and expect to win. You can give up 24 points on 4 turnovers and expect to win. Bad bad game bad Romo. Kudos to the Giants but we gifted them 24 points.

    We did gift them 24. Someone needs to explain to me why when your running the ball very well and Romo is obviously off why you don't just pound the ball at them and just give Romo safe options to pass, instead of that long that was picked inside the 5. They really gave this one away. Does anyone really think Phillips makes to season end? I wouldn't be surprised if Shannahan isn't in place by game 8.

    Cowher would be nice, he'd turn around the defence for sure. Also just think how much better the d line and o lines would be and what he would be able to do with those three backs. Another coach I wouldn't have a problem with is Gruden. I have read rumours that Shannahan is waiting in the wings, I don't have a problem with him, has won 2 super bowls, his o lines have always been good and his teams always run the ball well. I think last night if they had just kept pounding the ball and gave Romo safe options the outcome would have been different. Romo has to be better than that.
