Holy moly that was a weak call. This IS still football, right?
Wow, what an awful penalty against TNew!
What was the penalty for?
are they in 3-4 or 4-3?
no tv feed here does anyone have a link to a radio feed? Please
thank you
Brad
Wow! a 10 point swing. Romo and the boys need to march down the field and score.
The penalty was “Hit on a defenseless receiver”. The ball was tipped, so I would have thought no penlaty, but I guess it was sort of helmet-to-helmet. Just looked like a collision to me.
how do they look so far?
Tighthead,
They called it “A hit on a defenseless receiver!”
Sirius,
Try woai radio.

The was a stupid call by the refs, it should be 7-3 Cowboys right now.
bval77-
Soft in coverage to the flats (imagine that), but pretty strong against the run so far. 1 sack, couple of interception opps
It was a bad call! A huge emotional swing.
Thanks - that is a rare call indeed.
fking peterman starting for the lions.
Drop - TO
one,
I did they are doing some travel program. I will have to rely on the NFL network and you guys for updates…
we suck
Almost another pick. This time Henry
What a horrible offensive line we have. We may end the season on a 3 game losing streak and losing 4 out of 5 at this rate.
This is starting to look like last years closer when they mailed it in against the Rams.
The offense is horrible…how can we not block the worst defense in the league in sacks???
Sorry Sirius. They were carrying the games earlier in the year.
SWEET!!! Another 3rd down conversion against us
Killing us underneath, then try to hit deep. Sounds like Martz, you think?
that station you gave isnt letting me get on
Dropped pick - Roy Williams
What a gift that was, too
Brian Dawkins would have picked that one!
this game has to be fixed
They totally don’t want it…very sad!!
Never in my life seen a team give up on a season like these boys have.
bval77,
WOAI was carrying the games earlier in the season. I don’t know what happened. I haven’t had to go there recently ’cause the ‘Boys games have been on TV here in Vegas recently.
Couple good shots by Brady so far… he came to play
Let’s not all jump off a bridge yet, it’s only 6-0.
thanks anyway one. have to leave here shortly to go to a new years eve party
The offense better get the running game going…our O-line can’t hold off the amazing rush by the Lions
Looks like our OTs are getting schooled with inside moves. Anyone else see that? McQuistan is active today… any chance he gets in?
what the hell is wrong with romo
Offense looks like the worst in the league
I see no accuracy from Romo.
That yellow “Happy New Year” graphic is distracting as heck. Oh, crud… nice first play Parrish
Finally a penalty on the bad guys…
sirius try http://ticket760.com/main.html it’s working for me .
No way
No pressure on Kitna. We’re making him look like a Heisman winner.
Didn’t have control in bounds. Not sure they’ll overturn it, though
I am watchin on NFL.COM and It looks like a good thing that I am. So far looks ugly.
DANGIT
WOW!!…Lets go Romo…get it going
bigjohn, that link works.
2-13
no problem bushpilot.
Boo-birds out at Texas Stadium. God, it would suck to lose to the Lions then have the Eagles lose later.
Did the ‘boys all take sleeping pills before the game?
Romo better show what he’s made of, right now.
OUR SEASON IS DONE. If you can’t get fired up for a game following a butt kicking you don’t deserve to win. They need to start playing lights out no matter the outcome.
I was thinking of committing suicide, anyone want to join. I am thinking maybe that bridge that bushpilot was talking about.
they need to get rid of the that yellow new years banner. i keep thinking there’s a flag on the field
Hooray, they got a first down!
I’m with you freetam. At least change the color
TOP like 12 to 3 1st quarter? Yuck
KillDaSkins,
It’s not worth it.
romo’s not gettin rid of the ball, what happened to that quick release. he’s starting to look like bledsoe, very indecisive
this is excruciating
just use one hand Owens.
Nice grab TO. There’s the key - throw it behind him
What worries me most about these Cowboys is:
The defense can’t stop anyone. When something doesn’t go their way like that bad call, they cave.
The offense always seems to take forever to get going, and when they do, they’re already down by double digits.
It’s a recipe for disaster, and these guys show very little life. They don’t have a fiery demeanor and that starts at the top.
This is the 2-13 Detroit Lions, for crying out loud!
Nice pass to TO, let’s see more of that.
2 weeks in a row Romo’s got facewashed. Nice run JJ - good blocking
so 3-4 or 4-3?
HAHA JJ doesn’t want to come out even though he got dinged
Keystonetom,
They’ve been on sleeping pills since Thanksgiving. Doesn’t Turkey make you sleepy? Let’s blame Romo for getting the “Galloping Gobbler!” It’s that stinkin’ turkey! He needs to burn that thing! Throw it in a dumpster.
3-4 mostly. I think they went 4-3 on Hatcher’s sack? TD MB3!!!! Back to a 1 posession game
thanks guys. it sucks because i am overseas i cant get the broadcasts. i’m stuck with nfl.com
Hate to say it…they need to get the ball to TO more…especialy on those crossing routes…he looked really good on his last catch
Pardon me, it wasn’t a sack… tackle for loss on Cason
Barber is a human bowling ball!
Lets get some some pressure on this series…3 and out, LETS GO BIG D!!!
Not last week he wasn’t…didn’t have much help at the goal line last week, though
http://www.thehogs.net/html/funzone/PlacesToListen.php
I found this site that lists radio links
Romo is distrcated with all that Carrie Underwood and Jessica Simpson chatter.
bval77, listen on this link, it’s working for me. I’m doing the same, watching NFL.com, but listening to it on 760.

It’s time for the defense to make a statement against the 2-13 Detroit Lions!
This defense is atrosious
What that with Kitna lining up in the slot then going back under center? I remember that Cason can throw…
Lined up 4-3 there
def. makes one mistake and they crumble
PICK…WATKINS!!
PICK WATKINS! Look… we have a FS.
Crap…flag
Here we go. Nice inteception
Statement made!!!!!!!!!
No flag…sweet
PW, our new FS!! Maybe this kid is going to be good. Finally somebody making a play on the ball while it’s in the air.
We had 3 defenders back on that play…you think Zimmer is afraid of the long ball??
Terrible decision by Kitna - looked like triple coverage in the middle
Let’s not start anointing Watkins based on one pick. We need to see a body of work.
Put the annointing oil away…LOL!! Nice to see a FS make a play though.
True Tighthead, but at least he was where he was supposed to be
jk - we must be thankful for small mercies at the safety position, no doubt
There’s a little Romo Mojo
RomoMagic baby!!
Here we go Boys!!
Romo looking brilliant on this drive
Nice job Witten. Shield that LB off
Julius looks sluggish
This is the best drive.
Dre Bly out for this snap - attack
Must come convert this drive to 7 pts.
At least we look alive now
Touchdown. Now we’re cooking.
TD!!!
TD PC!!!
That Crayton keeps looking better and better.
Ok now if the D can step up I can rest easy.
Great reach by Crayton, and what a drive by Romo and crew! Let’s roll!!!!
These announcers are doing a good job
how do we look physically..just started listening to it the game online..( damn texans/browns game only one on tv)
Real nice job on that drive. Looks like they finally settled down. I think that first play rattled them
I am telling you guys, Crayton can be better than TO. We do not NEED Terrell “the stud” Owens.
DWare again!!
D-WARE!!!!!
Wait…whats that our defense getting to a QB?…spoke too soon.
Ware over 10 sacks for the season
First time since 96 that we have had a player with 10+ sacks. D Ware now has 10.5
They’re showing Greg Ellis on the sidelines. I sure hope he can return to form, because as good as Ware is now, imaine how much better he would be with a healthy Ellis!
junior glymph getting into the game, nbr.53
Need a STOP on 3rd down…Here we go!!
I meant IMAGINE!
D-WARE…ANOTHER one
Ware!!!!! and Bowen!!!!!!
SACK, they are getting these sacks out of the 4-3!!! They just said on the ticket.
Wow…….=(
Damn turnover!!!!!
NEWMAN!!!! C’mon man ridiculous!!
Who is Bowen???
Dangit Newman!!!
Where did Bowen come from? Undrafted free agent? Someone else’s practice squad?
Another 3rd down collapse
Did Bowen come from our Practice squad?
D-WARE…ANOTHER SACK!! 3.5 for the half
Ware a monster today!!
ware!!!!!!!!
Ware is going nuts. Was that a sack, or did Kitna get to the line?
Shawn who?
What a hit by Nate Jones!!!!!
D-Ware now has 3.5 sacks in the game!!!!!!!! Yahoo!!!!!!!
You know what’s really disappointing about this game? The special teams. For all the emphasis that Parcells places on special teams, they are playing pathetic today.
Seriously guys, if the Cowboys don’t improve their overall play, it is going to be one and done in the playoffs. We are playing a scab team right now and we are barely beating them.
They gave Bowen the earlier sack… not half to Ware
Tell me about the turnover. ESPN gamecast didn’t tell what it was. Was it a muffed punt?
Muffed punt by Newman
Can someone explain that to me?
Pushed off, dangit
Our pass defense is woeful!
unbelievable
Our 2 minute defense absolutely sucks.
Newman should have let the punt bounce, Gameday. At least I thought so
If you told me in the beginning of the season we would have to get into a shootout with the Lions I would laughed in your face.
what was that effort? I just can’t understand the freaking defense. Just when you think they’ve turned the corner, they give up a TD with 8 seconds to go. WOW!!
Our secondary sucks
Cannot believe that we are losing to this loser bunch of scrubs.
prediction…we win 42-40
Down 20-14 against the 2-13 Detroit Lions. Why are we even in the playoffs? Oh, the NFC sucks eggs, that’s why! Embarrassing! Our defense is too porous.
this defense is fragile. if they have no ability to rebound from mistakes. FIRE ZIMMER, just for the fact that this 2-13 team is leading at the half.
What a wonderful homer Charlie Waters is. He thinks it should have been interference on the Newman punt muff and a push-off by Williams on that last Lions TD. Love it… so much more fun that the TV idiots
No the kinda showing you’d expect from a playoff-bound Parcell team!
we are at home for christ sake against a 2-13 team
Yeah jkdallas, that’s what I was thinking as well. I’m not watching the game, so don’t know if there was a pushoff, or interference on the punt.
Ware is shining brightly today…3 sacks today 11.5 for the season
I cant understand why Glenn is on R.Williams…Glen may be good but come on, Newman should be on his ass…..RW is too big for Glenn to cover solo…
BTW, dont take Detroit too lightly, they gave Chicago a run for their money………that doesnt mean they suck now, does it?
Anyways, lets hope the 2nd half is better than this.
As bad as the defence has been playing of late, I don’t think that they are really that bad. There’s too much talent. A few more pieces next year and better coaching/schemes and more intensity by the players and the defence can be cooking again.
PSU-
I think Newman move to the slot receiver on nickle - R.Williams was lined up wide on that play, correct? I Need to look at the formation again.
The Cowobys are playing like they have nothing to play for. It’s like they want to quit. Seattle will be salivating after this performance.
We’re playing at HOME, man. Come on, for pete’s sake, Parcell. Better chew some A#@ in the locker and make some serious adjustments. Ware can’t do it all by himself, the secondary has to step up.
You guys might think Im crazy, But I think our Def is a lot better. I think Bill is holding back alot on Offence and Defence. Last week he flat said on the post game. He would take the blame for the loss, That his players didnt look prepared. I find it hard to believe he wouldnt have them ready unless he was holding back.
Yup, Newman and Henry were on the left side and had their guys. Glenn was singled up with the bigger Roy Williams. He didn’t have chance. And it didn’t look like a push off to me. Hard to tell from the camera angle
THEY NEED TO STAY IN A 4-3
New thread up.
Yes, Terence covers the slot receiver in the nickel, because that is the toughest position to cover– the WR can break inside OR outside.
Did we sit Henry down to rest him? I didn’t see him for the whole second quarter. I’m okay if that’s the case– otherwise, shouldn’t he be on Roy Williams? He’s much taller than Aaron is.
Offense looks pretty good.
Where are all these defensive guys like Stephen Bowen and Nathan Jones coming from? It’s like we’re starting our whole practice squad.
jkdallas,
I don’t know a single Cowoboys fan who doesn’t think Waters have been a complete buffoon on the radio calls this year.
I can’t listen to them.
I meant to say doesn’t think Waters has been a complte buffoon.
This is the second game in a row that we’ve been outcoached at the end of the second half.
How do we allow RW to be matched up solo on Glenn? You know they are going for the endzone, the least you can do is give safety help on the guy MOST LIKELY TO BE TARGETED. Seven points lost.
Last week, Philly had 8 seconds and needed about 15 yards for FG range. We put in the goalline prevent D to protect against a TD. They throw a nice easy 15 yard out with no defender within 5 yards of the receiver. He steps out of bounds with 2 seconds left and Akers comes in to kick a FG. How do we not cover the sidelines on a play like that? Coaching mistake. Three points lost.
Its bad enough to get beat on the field. Getting out-coached with what we’re paying Parcells is unacceptable.
Wow!
Miles Austin will give us some options for KR/PR next year with Tyson Thompson!
Another turnover!!!!!! Ouch!!!!
As soon as the announcers start praising Romo, he fumbles. Ouch!!!!!
Come on Defense!!!!!
Newman bails out Romo, Himself and DeHaven in one play.
Romo should have known better he is trying too hard, but nice TD on Newman
I take back part of that. Romo still must score to bail himself out for that fumble in the RZ.
Tell me about the td. Again, no details on the gamecast.
oh 2nd half thread up
It’s time for Drew!!!
Wow.
Why don’t we make a deal with the Lions: Let’s let THEM go to the playoffs, and we’ll take their first pick in the draft.
I wonder if they’d go for that….
