Way to screw the pooch, Seahawks!

[Kodos]

Way to choke to the benefit of the Cowboys.

You're finished, Seahawks!

[cthomer5000]

lets go 'Boys! I love Parcells.

[Kodos]

Nice throw, Vinny.

Screw Bill Parcells. He's an asshole. :)

[cthomer5000]

huge tackle by Nate Jones of Rutgers!

[Kodos]

And you should hate him for abandoning your Jets.

[Kodos]

Touchdown, Alexander!!!! :D

HOW 'BOUT DEM COWBOY DEFENDERS!!!

[cthomer5000]

And you should hate him for abandoning your Jets.
Not at all. I'm gracious that he took them from 1-15 and built them into a perenially competitive club. Now Bellicheck is another story.

[Joe]

nice d

[Kodos]

Wacky. You posted before I posted about Alexander, yet my post is above yours. :eek:

[Kodos]

And to think - I almost tuned out when it looked like the Cowboys would win comfortably.

[cthomer5000]

Wacky. You posted before I posted about Alexander, yet my post is above yours. :eek:
and your 'abondonment' post was there when I made my post... something strange is afoot at FOFC.

[Kodos]

Did Parcells draft Pennington? That would have been a nice parting gift if he did.

[sabotai]

What a catch!!!

[cthomer5000]

Yes, Parcells drafted John Abraham, Sean Ellis, Chad Pennington, Lavernes Coles all in his final draft.

amazing catch by Keyshawn.

[sooner333]

He didn't get both feet in.

[Kodos]

Challenge the catch!!!

[Kodos]

Bull shit!

[sabotai]

Well, not a catch. But it's too late to challenge now. (Still pretty nice non-catch by Keyshawn)

[sooner333]

Second straight year of a Dallas MNF miracle???

[sooner333]

Well, he was forced out actually, so I'll give him the catch.

[cthomer5000]

Let's go COWBOYS!

[Joe]

uh oh.. better stop em now

[Dutch]

It's not over.

[Kodos]

Time for Testaverde to get his 9th fourth quarter pick on the season.

[ISiddiqui]

What a game... say what you will about Seattle, they give exciting games :D.

[Crapshoot]

wow... what a game.

[cthomer5000]

I hope somehow this can end with a Testaverde QB sneak for a TD.... it would only be fitting. :D

[cthomer5000]

3rd and 8 ... run the draw!

[Kodos]

Let's go COWBOYS!


For SHAME! What would Chuck Farley think of your rooting for the Cowboys? :confused:

[JAG]

What a crazy game.

[Kodos]

Fuck.

[JAG]

Hilarious...are you telling me, after that throw, they weren't thinking run there?

[sooner333]

Almost happened right there!

[Kodos]

So close!

[Dutch]

Time for Testaverde to get his 9th fourth quarter pick on the season.

Well, he tried on that one! Triple Coverage, only Bernie Kosar and Vinny Testeverde would try to sling that one in there.

[cthomer5000]

I'm an offensive genius, what can I say?

[ISiddiqui]

They ran the draw on 3rd and 8 for the first! Cthomer... you are a genius! :D

[cthomer5000]

I've studied under Paul Hackett for too many years. :D

[ISiddiqui]

I guess that Julius Jones pick was actually pretty smart ;).

[sooner333]

Well, I'm glad I kept watching instead of studying.

I guess the topic has a sarcastic tone now.

[ISiddiqui]

HOLY CRAP... how did that happen?!

[cthomer5000]

Jones reminds me of Thurman Thomas.


(seriously)

[ISiddiqui]

That kind of reflects badly on your team when you give up a 20 yard or so run for a TD with 30 seconds left to (potentially) win the game. Jeez...

[Kodos]

This thread is definitely chronologically challenged.

Oh, and FUCK!!!

[JAG]

Julius Jones for president!!!

[Crapshoot]

Wow- what a performance by Jones. and the Seattle defense - wow.

[Solecismic]

Eddie George he ain't. That kid is looking good.

[cthomer5000]

Kodos brought this on with the thread title.

Can we get a "IHOF BOWL III - Nice work, Chitterlings!" thread, please?

[Kodos]

I was hoping for a nice kick return... :(

[ISiddiqui]

What is that, two straight 150+ yard rushing games for Jones. Why didn't I pick him up on the waiver wire in my fantasy leagues now?

[cthomer5000]

Jerry Rice got..... JACKED UP!

[Kodos]

Well crap. At least I can take comfort in the fact that the Cowboys still suck. :)

[SirFozzie]

Nice little comeback at the expense of the Cowboys.

NOW FINISH 'EM!!!

How you feelin Kodos?

[ISiddiqui]

Great game... glad I kept watching :D

[Travis]

Think Testaverde got a 2 for 1 deal on screwjobs against the Seahawks? No way that was a force out, almost as good as the phantom sneak on New Years a few years ago.

[Kodos]

How you feelin Kodos?

Okay. It's not like the Cowboys are going anywhere. Just devaluing their draft picks. :p

[Kodos]

I guess I pulled a Leon Lett while on the way to the end zone... Damn you, Don Beebe!

[cthomer5000]

The Seahawks have cornered the marked on meltdowns.

[Kodos]

Holmgrem seems to be tarnishing his genuis status a bit, yes.

Of course, so is Parcells. :)

[LastWhiteSoxFanStanding]

Vikings versus Seahawks next week. God help us all.

[cthomer5000]

Holmgrem seems to be tarnishing his genuis status a bit, yes.

Parcells has tarnished that rep, how? Taking a lousy 'Boys team (with Quincy Carter!) to the playoffs last year?

I think they might be able to sneak in at 8-8 yet.

[Kodos]

Thanks.

I was referring to this season, cthomer. Tonight's win does not change the fact that they are subpar.

[SirFozzie]

Nice change of topic title there ;)

[JAG]

dola

6 posts at 12:29, that's pretty cool.

[JAG]

Thanks.

No, although numerous injuries to starters at already thin positions certainly did not help them this season.

[dixieflatline]

There is a real possibility that the "winner" of the NFC west ends up with a losing record. Seattle's last four games are @MIN, @NYJ, ARI, ATL. St. Louis's last four are @CAR, @ARI, PHI, NYJ. It's certainly possible these two teams both go 1-3. Arizona could then sneak in if they run the table... maybe not.

[Rizon]

I think I saw Ray Rhodes passing around a J late in the 4th quarter. That shit must have been dy-no-mite.

[Kodos]

There certainly no Dolphins. :)


:(

[sterlingice]

Vikings versus Seahawks next week. God help us all.
My fantasy team thanks this game for being on the schedule at a late and important time in the season ;)

SI

[CHEMICAL SOLDIER]

So....Itake it no Seahawks for the playoffs eh.

[EagleFan]

Though I like the Seahawks, there is an ultimate good that has come out of this game. The Eagles have now clinched a first round bye. Now all they have to play for during the regular season is getting home field. :D

[duckman]

*points to Kodos*

HA! HA!

Go Cowboys! :D

[cthomer5000]

Hey, no thread title changing.

[rkmsuf]

The Seahawks have to be the softest team in the league.

Holmgrem is the one who should be stepping down.

[cthomer5000]

Holmgren should really start updating the resume. He's been skating for too long while doing nothing in Seattle.

[MizzouRah]

I now present to you the NFC West Division leaders:

St. Louis Rams

[HornedFrog Purple]

Bill Parcells did some peculiar things in that game and in general this entire season, such as going for 2 in the 2nd quarter down 14-12. Makes no sense. Then the play he tries is a gadget play which ended up a disaster...

When they play their 3 down lineman dime scheme, why is Carson playing instead of Glover? Glover was causing havoc for much of the game. Matter of fact why is Ngywen playing centerfield LB instead of Coakley?

The reason why Julius Jones looks good is that the Cowboys offensive line has been making holes all year. But no one with the exception occasionally of Richie Anderson can burst in them. Julius has that 2nd gear that no one else on the roster has.

Quincy Morgan is 1/10th of the player Antonio Bryant is. I still am shaking my head on that trade.

Still a great comeback by the Boys despite Vinny forgetting what team he is on once in a while.

[Radii]

I now present to you the NFC West Division leaders:

The 6-6 *snicker snicker*St. Louis Rams

there, fixed that up for you. Soon to be 6-7 after a trip to Charlotte next week.

[G-Man]

My last pick in the fantasy draft was Jerry Rice. Now had I played Jerry Rice this week our last of the regular season, I would now be preparing for the playoffs. But nooooooooooooooo, I had to stay with Michael Clayton of Tampa Bay! So it's better luck next year! :mad:

Head Coach for the Seahawks in 2005:JIM FASSEL!

The Seahawks and Holmgren are both DONE in 2004!

[cuervo72]

The Seahawks have cornered the marked on meltdowns.

It's that radioactive green trim that they have.

[SnowMan]

Once again the Seahawks snatch another defeat from the jaws of victory.

[MizzouRah]

there, fixed that up for you. Soon to be 6-7 after a trip to Charlotte next week.

Don't you know we have Chandler at QB next week. :)

That's ok, Seattle has to beat Minnesota. :D

[WSUCougar]

Vikings versus Seahawks next week. God help us all.
My two favorite NFL teams. And I couldn't agree with you more.

[JeeberD]

What an exciting finish to the game. I got home from work just as the fourth quarter was starting, and was pissed as hell when Alexander broke that long run to make it a ten point game. I even told my girlfriend that the game was over.

I need to learn not to be so hasty. :)

Julius looked great out there tonight. Three straight 30+ carry games, outstanding. Hopefully he'll keep doing that for us the rest of the way so we don't have to spend one of your first rounders on a RB...

[Travis]

Seahawks/Vikings? How many Onterrio Smith owners are going to have him on the bench?

[bhlloy]

Couple of things here... first going for 2 while down by 2 a bad idea? Agreed the play called was laughable (shit they are motioning their 41 year old QB into wideout, let's adjust our coverage and pay him all the attention) but I can't see the logic in kicking the XP. Run Jones up the middle and take the percentage play, or loft one up there for Keyshawn.

Secondly has Coakley ever played middle? Great (in his day anyway) linebacker but has always been undersized. Nguyen has the edge in size and bulk and for his faults is a good sideline to sideline work through traffic tackler. I've always thought him one of the more underrated players in the league.

Couldn't agree more on the line... Al Johnson from Wisconsin looks like a great player in the making and him and Larry Allen just dominated, opening up the holes for Jones on that draw play every single time. Johnson bitched on Isiah Kaczevynski all night long. Allen was moving those big DT's (Moore and #99) around like he did when he was in his prime.

It was the second quarter. :eek:

[CHEMICAL SOLDIER]

Hats off to Jerry Rice, Who did pretty well out there tonight. 8 catches for something like 145 yds and a td. Way to go.

[sterlingice]

It was the second quarter. :eek:
Um... so?

SI

[Desnudo]

Um... so?

SI

Kick early, go late.

[JasonC23]

Um... so?

SI
Well, nothing, I guess, unless you like your head coach to send the message to your team that he's so confident that there is no way in hell they will score again that they absolutely have to go for 2 to tie the game...in the second quarter.

Why give up a 99.9% sure point for an (at best) 50% chance at 2 with more than half the game left to go? :eek:

[ISiddiqui]

Frankly... I liked the original title better :D.

[bhlloy]

Don't agree sorry people time of game shouldn't matter. Only consideration is that a 2 point deficit is not that much more disadvantageous than a 1 point deficit, but a tie game is infinitely better than a 1 or 2 point deficit.

Jason - it's not an issue of not expecting the other team to score again. What is the issue is that you have to plan for the other team matching your score throughout the game, and eventually you have to go for the 2. Why not go for it early with less on the line?

When I'm coaching, if the HC asks for my opinion I go for the 2 every single time. Just not with that play :)

OK, we'll have to agree to disagree. My main point is, an extra point is automatic, a 2-point conversion has a 50-50 shot, at best. I think it's silly to go for 2 until you HAVE to, which means definitely not in the first half (or even third quarter, unless you're getting your ass kicked).
