Tony Romo is 3-0

Yeah, but Cam is 10-0. 

Dallas is 3-7.

Carolina is 10-0.

Please, I really want to know. How are the Cowtwats not only favored, but still getting more talk about than the Panthers?

One dude on NFLN just said "If the cowboys beat the Panthers, they will have respect then." WTF?  We could set the NFL scoring record for a game and still not get any respect. 

I think I will just stop watching the coverage this week.

Yeah weird, being Dallas week and all. Plus Romo's name is in the title, so you didn't have to open the thread. I ain't PU.

I try to stay in the Charlotte/local scene for Panthers coverage. Don't really care what people who don't watch us play have to say about our team. Their tweets, coverage, articles and headlines are written and posted to garner the most clicks and buzz. Now, I know this happens locally but it's a lot more balanced, if anything, leaning towards brutally honest rather than sugar coated. 

I would urge fans to take after our team, enjoy the ride. Don't worry about the press or the respect. No amount of wins will force ANYONE to respect us. These players don't play for media respect, they play for wins.

Thursday games pretty much always favor the home team. The Cowboys almost always play well on Thanksgiving and they are 3-0 with Romo. It's not really that big of a mystery. I thought we would be favored by a couple but this really isn't that huge of a shock. Vegas doesn't set lines due to narratives or popular opinion.

We should be happy anyway. The team will use this as motivation. If you really think it's that disrespectful then slap a few grand on the Panthers to cover.

    • Love the Freeling pick even more after watching his pressers. Dude is sharp and definitely seems to have the right mentality. I loved hearing how personal he took having a bad game with a torn labrum and instead of seeing that as the reason for his bad game and not changing anything, it motivated him to work even harder. Such a great pick, we finally got our all pro level LT for the next decade and now we can move Ickey to RT or guard with no hurt feelings due to his injury. Second favorite pick is probably Brazzell. He said he false started on his 40 and it cost him probably 0.04 seconds, so he’s more of a 4.33 guy rather than 4.37. Really Randy Moss lite. I didn’t know anything about him prior to drafting him and first highlight reel I saw of him I immediately thought he looked like Moss. Then I saw the measurables and was like yep. Then I see that he’s drawn that comparison by many scouts and analysts. If he can add consistency and play to the level of his highlights every play then we got an incredible value.
    • During his three years at UGA he only allowed 5 sacks. He is only 21 and is on an upward trajectory. He's a great athlete that was good basketball player in high-school.  His height (76% how is this only 76%???? these guys are giants now), hands (81%), span (99%), speed (96%), quickness (10 yd. 86%), and explosiveness (vert. 96%, broad 97%) are all outstanding.  When we took Freeling, Fano, Mauioga, Proctor, and Miller were all off the board so we could have drafted Iheanachor or Lomu instead or waited to the second or third round to take Bell, Tiernan or Barber or wait even longer.  A lot of these tackles (including the first two taken) project to right tackle or guard in the NFL and that's not what we needed now.  Freeling has some sloppiness to clean up in his run blocking, but he's young and getting better.  We can let him get experience behind Walker and Moton knowing if he has to replace one of the two this year, his pass blocking won't get Bryce killed. Icky's not coming back from that injury as a nfl starting left tackle and Moton is in the twilight of his career.  If Walker has a great year, we will have to pay him a lot and if he is medicore we would want to let him walk.  Getting a LT on a rookie contract is going to help a lot with the cap.    
    • It was cool but they have done this at least in recent years unless I am imagining it
