Mr. Scot

Okay, I gotta catch up on this game since the Cowboys game ran long. Also, no exaggeration: Lady Cowboy Fan shoved me into a couch as the final field goal hit

Aaaaaaaand Russell Wilson...

Interior line was among the best units we've ever had. I wish we had a center half as good as Kalil now.

Okay, starting to worry I may not survive the Cowboys game

Oher was good. Remmers mostly did okay against people not named Von Miller. Things I hated about that season: - Rivera always coasted in the second half and thus games that looked like blowouts in the first half became nail biters in the second. - The team failing to adjust after Atlanta exposed weaknesses in our schemes, then watching those same things happen in the Super Bowl. - Learning that the coaches told someone (Mike Gilbert, I think) to help Remmers against Miller in the Super Bowl, and them basically refusing to do so

Holy sh-t, going for a 64 yard field goal. Edit: And making it

Many people believe the modern NFL needs a minor league. I'd agree but I know it'll never happen.

Side Note: I may now have a concussion as well as a burst eardrum

No argument. I've said before it's not on the college coaches to prepare players for the NFL. Their job is to win games, and the methods for doing that are a lot different than at the pro level. Wasn't always such a big discrepancy, though. I get why it's changed, but I miss when there wasn't such a huge gap.

Dallas secondary has been refried ass this game.

I don't think he was ever fully healthy when we had him. That said, the way they're using him is way smarter than what we tried.

We had a pretty decent one in 15. Couldn't maintain it though. Fell apart way too fast.

Well...

Changes to the college game are why it's become so hard to develop quarterbacks and find half decent offensive linemen.

My "what if" with Newton will always be what if his early development would have been trusted to someone like Norv Turner rather than Mike Shula.

Preseason three (at that time, the 'dress rehearsal' game) he looked horrible. Played great when it mattered though. These days,the college game just doesn't teach pro level skills like it once did. Makes it much harder to identify QB talent.

Undisciplined on both sides of the ball... Daboll doesn't really seem like head coach material.

Have thought the same

So far, they've been as much a problem to themselves as the Cowboys. Nearly shook my head so hard I got a headache.

I don't dislike him. Nor do I think he's bad. I do have to say he was heavily overhyped. He'd have to have been a virtual god to live up to the pre-draft fawning.

This Giants - Cowboys game has been a special brand of dog sh-t Can't recall ever seeing four penalties on a single play and then having them wind up offsetting. Greg Olsen marveled "This is something!"

Related Note: The Giants backup left tackle, James Hudson, is an absolute moron.

Don't know if anyone else say the head slap from the Giants left tackle, but I thought that should have been an ejection.

Cowboys game at 1:00, Panthers at 4:00... Busy day ahead

Discussed elsewhere... Just taking his hands off doesn't mean a miraculous recovery is on the horizon. Still have to do the work, and in this case the work is an extremely hard thing to do in even the best of circumstances.
