33Cowboysfan Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 5 (3) Eagles 0-1-0 The Eagles obviously missed Jeremiah Trotter, but this loss was more about the offense than the loss of Trotter 8 (19) Cowboys 1-0-0 It's just one week, but Cowboys fans (and Bill Parcells) have to be pretty excited about the start of the Drew Bledsoe era. 17 (25) Giants 1-0-0 There was a lot of buzz around Brandon Jacobs in the preseason and based on Week 1, he looks worthy of it. 26 (26) Redskins 1-0-0 Didn't take long for the quarterback shuffle to start in Washington. :doh: Huh and here I was lead to believe the Redskins were dominate this past weekend... :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

33Cowboysfan Posted September 14, 2005 Author Share Posted September 14, 2005 Enjoy it while you can. As I'm sure you know things have a way changing swiftly in the NFL. Enjoy what, the excuses and exaggerations coming out of this board. I will… I have given up hope that those things will change though. If you were talking about the Power Rankings, I am sure they will change. But that wasn't really my point. My point was many of you had said you dominated on Sunday, yet the "experts" don't agree... Please tell me why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as being "dominant" the defense was just that. Most folks here expected that, but who has said our offense dominated? Talk about exaggeration.. I'm not sure what you think you saw, perhaps it was Joe Theismann, one of the so-called experts, picking the Redskins in the Super Bowl. Who knows?

renegademrnate23 Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 That is quite a jump in one game. I agree that Dallas is a strong team this year....but 8?????:dallasuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jabronijames Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 I love the Redskins and have loved them for years, but there's something I have to say. The Redskins played like crap on Sunday and it's a darn good thing we played the Bears and not a team with talent. Had we been playing any other team (especially in our division) we would have gotten creamed. You can't win in the NFC East without a single touchdown. Defense did their job by keeping the Bears from winning, but they also failed in terms of getting to the quarterback and forcing more turnovers. I think we have a lot of work to do this week before we talk any smack to the Dallas fans. Stop fooling yourselves. A 9-7 win over the hapless Bears should have LOWERED our power ranking. The only reason we're not 32 on that list is that the defense kept us in the game. Better bring more than that if you're going to beat Dallas IN Dallas on Monday night.

My point was many of you had said you dominated on Sunday, yet the "experts" don't agree... Please tell me why? Where did they say that? Just because ONE man who didn't tune in ranks us at 26 doesn't mean we didn't hold a team to 150 yards while gaining 350 ourselves.... I wouldn't equate "experts" with "author of Power Rankings" just yet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themurf Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 The Cowboys are #8 - as in the guy who isn't coming back to play for them any time soon. (Probably because LaVar killed him). Do you think Gregg Williams is going to let Drew Bledsoe (who might be the least mobile QB in football) stand there and pick apart his top-ranked defense? Not hardly. As for the Redskins being #26 - that's fitting. Get used to the number 26 - you'll see plenty of that number all night long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pencilpusher Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 The Dallas game worried me in the sense that Bledsoe had a near flawless game and it was still close. I was impressed with the D overall, but they gave up too many big plays. GREAT goal line stand at the end. I was sweating bullets. Glad Gates wasn't playing in that situation. I wonder why SD did not try to run it? When you got Tomlison it's pretty dumb not to try him. They had timeouts. Anthony Henry gets my props, and Demarcus was Oh so close on a few near sacks. I'm not gonna pronounce us superbowl bound, but an over all good win on he road against a probable play-off team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Number5 Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Ranked #5 is cool with me, Dallas though, I would have to agree about them being left out of the top 10. Top 15, yes, but 10, not yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbishop26 Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 They're excited about the "Bledsoe Era" - the guy has had ONE season in the last 6 where he finished with a rating over 78. What a superstar!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pencilpusher Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 I'm not excited at all about the Bledsoe era. But he is the starting QB for my team so I will support him and hope he does well. I feel he is a step up from Vinnie, for sure, but no long term answer. Are you excited about the Brunell era? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbishop26 Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Not as excited I am for the Greg Williams era. Beldsoe should sit back, relax, and hold on to the ball just a second too long. :dallasuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inevitable Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 Man - ouch - this really hurts when you run your dumb mouth then have to stop for just a few minutes to cram down all that crow. Sorry buddy, I realize you will never post here again, but this really hurts the ol' pride. Chalk 1 up for the good guys! 14-13, against all odds, we took it to 'em.

Die Hard Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 Odd thing.... the media is saying the same thing about the Cowboys (after the loss) as Redskins fans have been saying for the last 7 years (after all the losses). The team that lost was the better team. So tell me.... who is right? (pssst.... it's a catch 22) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
