Arrrrrgh! ends on an offensive penalty

 

[rcpratt]

That still can't touch the ugliness of the Lions/Bears game. Or the pathetic ending.

 

[SP33Demon]

Arrrrrgh! ends on an offensive penalty

They were calling that penalty all night on Barron holding Arakpo... the man isn't the best LB in the NFL for nothing (11 sacks last year) and all you can do is hold him if he's not double teamed...

 

[Turin39789]

To be fair, if he hadn't clotheslined the guy then Romo would probably be face first in the ground.

to be fair he could have stopped him legally, redskins made a good showing, started off strong but finished weak, cowboys couldn't get out of their own way. Eagles are going to miss Mcnabb.

1 game down, a season to go.

it'd be at least less insulting that way.

Uhm, what? Retarded much?

 

[umbrella39]

nope he has to keep it all the way. he didn't.

fucked up but he should have protected the ball.

LMAO. Love your team spirit but LOL.

 

[umbrella39]

That lions catch is funny. Looks like he let go of the ball on purpose. Sucks that the rules are going to get him for that.

There is a first for everything. Bolded for the agree. He let go of the ball because he had just caught a TD and was in the process of standing up. I hope the next time he catches a TD with that dickwad ref he runs over to him afterwards and shoves the ball down his throat and say did I catch it enough for you this time...

 

[OBLAMA2009]

i cant fricken believe alex smith. how many chances are they gonna give him?

 

[SP33Demon]

*laughs terribly hard*

Wait, did you just link me fucking BLEACHER REPORT? That website is a fucking pathetic excuse for a sports blog.

You're fucking hyping up a GREAT (no, I will NOT say BEST) OLB against a rookie guard? You're the mother fucking retard. KKTHANKS.

You want to use STATS to make your choice? You want to use them from last year? Orakpo was ranked #7 in sacks, which was a 3 way tie with Ware (DAL) and Carter (WSH). Both of those players had a higher number of solo and total tackles, along with more pass deflections and forced fumbles. Do you want me to go on about the other 6 players stats above those 3?

 

[purbeast0]

doesn't matter how you get it .. a win is a win and my skins are tied for first in the division, and the cowgirls are tied for last ... LOVE IT!

that last play of the game was the biggest low to high i've ever done heh.

Let's go into stats... did Ware or Carter have 4 sacks in a game last year? Can either of them benchpress 515 lbs? No, Ware pressed a measly 430. Rak is a stronger version of Ware: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AglSpWWkGbE&feature=related

Better yet, where the fck was Ware tonight? On the bench while his team lost and Rak drew the game winning penalty, that's where.

 

[eits]

hail to the redskins, hail victory... braves on the warpath... fight for ol' d.c.!

woooohooo!!! go skins!!!

thank you, dallas, for signing a complete an perpetual fuckup like barron. the guy's had the most offensive penalties in the league for years.

i'd be happier if the skins won that game rather than have the cowboys lose it, but whatever. a win is a win

Uhm, he had 4 sacks against the Raiders.

Say this with me. The Oakland. Fucking. Raiders.

Ware had 3 games with 3 sacks each in the 2008 season. And uhm, get back to me when measly means 430 lbs. That's probably 4x more than you can benchpress.

Um... bench press means very little unless you're a lineman.

That said, you're insane if you think Orakpo is a better LB than Ware.

 

[leeland]

just to see jerry jones surgically altered face winkle in the loss was enough for my smile

Ware had 1 sack against the Raiders. Say this with me. Four. Sacks. Greater. Than. One.

Let's see: Rak benched 85 more lbs, squatted more, had a higher vertical and broad jump, had more reps @225 and was almost as fast weighing 12 more lbs.

All in all it doesn't matter, Rak performed when it mattered most and sent douchebag Romo back to Dallas crying. Dallas has 3X more talent yet scored a TD the entire game... Rak embarrassed Barron time and time again and Dallas refused to double Rak. Ware got 1 sack against a rookie and an O-Line which is average at best. /golfclap

 

[OCGuy]

Dallas screws themselves out of being a top-tier team.

And how about Mr. Clay Matthews?

They both made the Pro Bowl and both are indispensable. Ware is weaker but has played longer and Rak is better IMO. 11 sacks in his rookie year is unreal, Ware had 8 which is awesome as well.

Tonight showcased who was better b/c Rak was going against a much tougher O-Line. Ware got trampled on a running play and left the game.

Even if you think Ware is better he wasn't better tonight (yet doug will say he had the better game b/c he had more sacks and tackles! Moron).

Actually, I never said Ware was better tonight, I argued that Rak isn't the best LB. Maybe you should learn to read before you call someone a moron.

 

[BoomerD]

The Cowboys/Redskins game was stunningly stupid...IMO, the Redskins didn't beat the Cowboys...the Cowboys beat the Cowboys.

Yes, Washington gets to put 1 in the win column...can't take that away from them, but overall...the Cowboys just beat themselves.

I don't like either team, so it doesn't matter much to me, but WOW! Sure, fouls happen from time to time...everyone fucks up on occasion, but Dallas seemed to make that their game strategy tonight.
They're a far cry from the machines of the Landry era.

 

[fustercluck]

Brady, Welker, and Arian Foster on my fantasy team. Woot.

Cowboys look really out of sorts.
