    Super Bowl LVII - Chiefs vs Eagles in Glendale

    I'm not sure how much even Patriots fans fully realize how ridiculous of a win that was. KC's defense was bad that year, but the offense was out of this world. They only had one home loss all year (by 1 point to the Chargers) and had just disemboweled a pretty good Colts team the week before in...

    Super Bowl LVII - Chiefs vs Eagles in Glendale

    Yep, I was thinking the same thing last night. Reminded me of the Patriots in their prime SB run in making all the plays when they needed them. It also reminded me a bit of the 2017 (season) Superbowl against the Eagles except the Chiefs got the one monster defensive TD play that the Patriots...

    Tom Brady is retiring

    The increasingly immobile Montana in his latter years against that early/mid 1990s Dallas defense probably wouldn't have gone as well as he thinks it would have. But I think these guys are so competitive by nature they think like this. It's part of what makes them great too.

    John Madden has passed away

    Yeah that was hilarious....it was almost as if Parcells was testing Hostetler one more time. "let see if he can make the plane on his own". Who knows if that was it...they prob just left without realizing he was missing. But it wouldn't be surprising if Parcells knew the whole time.

    2022 Cowboys: The Mike McCarthy Experience continues

    I wouldn't be surprised if Quinn ends up as HC of Dallas within a few years. He's not all that old (52 years), and seems to love it in Dallas. Obviously a lot of that depends on what happens with McCarthy....hard to say on that front. Jerrah seems to love him, but we know that he can change his...

    2022 Cowboys: The Mike McCarthy Experience continues

    Wow, that's crazy good news for Dallas. The defense has been a different beast under Quinn. Almost everyone assumed he was gone, though before last season, Jerry signed him to a multi-year extension that was reportedly very good money, so I guess Quinn is happy there.

    2022 Cowboys: The Mike McCarthy Experience continues

    My guess would be they at least play out 2023 season as is….there were some rumors of concern in the FO about Dak’s turnovers this year. He hasn’t typically/historically been turnover-prone but if that becomes a regular thing, it’s not something they’d want to invest a new lucrative contract in.

    2022 Cowboys: The Mike McCarthy Experience continues

    Dak's advanced metrics numbers have typically been superior to Stafford's, though in 2021 Stafford was better than Dak. But the caveat is that 2021 was Stafford's best supporting cast ever. Has Dak ever had a cast like that? Hard to measure that type of interdependence.

    2022 Cowboys: The Mike McCarthy Experience continues

    I think Dak is good enough to win, but he isn't going to carry a team like a Mahomes or Brady did. If he has a really good supporting cast (think Stafford/Rams last year), then he could do it. He's one of those top 10ish type QBs in the league but not a top 5. Can he peak as a top 5? I...

    2022 Cowboys: The Mike McCarthy Experience continues

    Lamb almost made a sensational catch on that play. Dak was under pressure though when he threw it so that may have saved the 49ers on that play. He prob lays it in there if he had another half second.

    2022 Cowboys: The Mike McCarthy Experience continues

    I think I also like going for it more on the road (esp as an underdog). If you’re at home, you have a little extra utility in pinning your opponent deep with the crowd noise on your side, etc down near the goalline where it will be hard on the offense. The offense doesnt have to worry about that...

    2022 Cowboys: The Mike McCarthy Experience continues

    Dallas had driven from their own 11 or 12 I think on that drive, so they had been moving it there and with the defense playing well, I think it's more of an excuse to go for it on 4th and 5 there....it's a pretty classic "go for it" situation anyway unless your offense is really bad. I thought...

    2022 Cowboys: The Mike McCarthy Experience continues

    McCarthy is who he is and it's the reason most DAL fans didn't want him. He was brought in to win in the playoffs, but his playoff track record isn't good on decision-making. That 2014 NFCCG was utterly brutal and he had peak Aaron Rodgers. He wasn't all of the sudden going to grow a spine with...

    I think Zeke only counts like 5.5 million if they cut him after June 1st.

    2022 Cowboys: The Mike McCarthy Experience continues

    Dallas showed up today too which made it more infuriating. The defense did enough to win. Dak didn’t stop the playoff failure talk last week…just merely postponed it. He had the game for the taking today and couldn’t get it done. They didn’t need to score 30+. And Mike McCarthy gets an assist...

    NFL Playoffs - Divisional Round

    Yeah DAL made it first and goal and 49ers held them to the FG. The 49ers defense really came up with the biggest plays of the game…even when Dallas moved the ball a bit they came up with big turnovers like the one deep in the red zone that kept it at 6-6 in the first half. Looked like Dallas...

    NFL Playoffs - Divisional Round

    Trusting your defense is a good reason to go for that 4th and 5 too. Maybe it gives Dak the confidence too if they convert and score on that drive. It was a classic “play not to lose” decision and I said that at the time.

    NFL Playoffs - Divisional Round

    Yep that was the 4th and 5 whew McCarthy decided to punt it. The game changed a lot after that. It seemed like Dallas had things going their way at that point (even after the Pollard injury). Game was tied at 9 and they had already driven the ball ~50 yards

    NFL Playoffs - Divisional Round

    You wonder how the game may have played out if McCarthy had a spine and went for it on that 4th and 5 tied at 9

    NFL Playoffs - Divisional Round

    Dallas offense has been legit good. Dak just hasn’t proven he can do it when it’s all on his shoulders like today.
