    Who remembers the night game against Dallas when maybe Romo was a new starter, and the obvious tackle on Drew Carter before the ball arrived, no PI call, changed the whole game.  Thinking 07 maybe?

    06 was the big Romo coming out party.  We got up 14-0 and then the Cowboys outscored us 35-0 the rest of the way.  They even set a franchise record for fourth quarter points, or something appropriately humiliating.

    I think 2007 was the one where the DB just tackled Carter before the ball got there.  Matt Moore was the starter in that game.  I think that was the same one where Steve Smith made a catch on his back, the closest ref called it complete, and then Mike Carey came running from the opposite end of the field to call it incomplete.

    Peppers tipped that field goal against the Cowboys in 2005. Twenty years later, not much has changed with the refs.

    That ball hit him under the arm and the way the ball was moving visibly changed.  I will go to my grave believing that.  Also Steve Smith getting ejected for like, touching a ref's waist.

    Just a gigantic coincidence that that was a game the Cowboys needed to stay alive for the playoffs, if I remember correctly.

  3. That RTP on Prescott was a total bitch call and bailed them out on what would have been another failed drive.  It was a clean hit.

    It's nothing new though.  Any time we play the Cowboys in the regular season they get generous spots, usually more than one questionable penalty that extends a drive for them or kills one for the Panthers, and more often than not a handful of no-calls on PI or holding.  The exceptions are the two playoff games and the 2015 beatdown on Thanksgiving.

    What's the temperature in Charlotte today?  Black helmets seem like it should be a late November, December thing when your team isn't getting crushed by the sun.  I may be over thinking it, which I know no one in the Panthers organization ever does. 

    68 and overcast with some rain likely

    Last time we beat the Cowboys was that Thanksgiving game I think, with the powder blue uniforms. Iirc Luke had back to back int's...one of which was a pick 6 that ended with a Romo stiff arm lol. 

    If I'm Dave, I'm starting Dowdle for sure this week!

    We beat them in the 2018 opener iirc.

    These receivers and Dowdle won’t let Bryce throw this game away. Great drive by the weapons. Bad throws by Bryce still getting hauled in. 

    That ball that TMac had to high point when he was wide open was hideous.  A replacement level QB that hits him even sort of in stride is probably holding up his arms watching him run down the sideline.
