friday morning schadenfreude

even though i am spectacularly loaded down with work and deadlines and other responsibilities i couldn't stop myself from spending copious amounts of time browsing the cowboys-panthers gameday thread over on the dallas boards. there's a special little joy in going page by page and anticipating reactions to big plays and seeing spontaneous rushes of curse words and unadulterated rage. here's a sampling

Ref bias? Lol

In his defense, there were two plays that could've easily have resulted in flags and first downs for Dallas.

1) TD hitting McFadden before the ball got there resulting in a 3rd down which ended up leading to a FG

2) On Kuechly's second INT Coleman just about took Witten's head off during a time where Witten was a defenseless receiver. 

I really thought the refs called a good game and let the guys play. Brandon Carr basically undressed Olsen on his catch down the seam to end the 1st as well but Olsen fought him off and made the grab. I way rather the refs let them play versus flag every second play. If the refs were really out to get Carolina then they definitely missed their chance yesterday

Yeah, I was also shocked that Coleman didn't get a 15 yard personal foul for decleating Witten.

Coleman hit Witten in the chest, that's why they didn't call it.  He did leave his feet and it was very close to being a helmet to helmet shot but it was by rule a clean hit although on the razors edge of a penalty.  I was surprised it wasn't called a foul anyway.

On #2, Mike Pereria said that there is no foul for launching in the NFL, and a better angle shows that he didn't hit the head/neck or shoulder area.

#2 was a legal (and nasty) hit.

#1 should have been PI, not to mention the replay showed Luke trip him man on the same play. Oh well, the Panther's were definitely due for a call or two to go their way.

That TD hit on McFadden was legitimately one of the worst no calls I've ever seen. Even live it was really clear TD was there way too early.

That said, given the terrible calls that have gone against us this it's about time some of the terrible reffing went our way. I also think we would still hold them to a FG there if they did get the call so whatever.

For anybody having a hard time with the title

 

 

 

I'm assuming this is supposed to be funny, since that's not even close to being correct.

What's even better is going to the Falcons and saints board. They are legit scared of this team.

They should be. We just keep getting better, and if our Rivera December performance continues this year, the odds of finishing the season 16-0 go way up.

    • My projection. I think at WR its time to go with youth. This means Moore should be the odd man out. Horn can return both punts and kicks and Tremayne is a better WR than Moore. XL gets one more year to prove himself, although I could see a trade in the future which would mean Moore could stay. For OL, I would like us to bring back Brady if we can. The RBs, Trevor can return both punts and kicks too. With the uncertainty of Brooks and Dillon, its hard to choose either one. I think the team would like for Brooks to have a breakout season to clear any uncertainty that he deserves a spot. For now, I have them both even and on the team. DL looks solid as well as OLB. Watch out for the UDFA of Aaron Hall and Isaiah Smith at OLB. They look promising and could knock someone off the team. ILB is still the biggest weakness on the team. We need to upgrade that any means necessary. CB is strong and Im praying to all the Gods that Wheatley beats out Scott at FS.  OFFENSE: WR: Tetairoa McMillan - *Chris Brazzell II* - Brycen Tremayne TE: Tommy Tremble - James Mitchell LT: #Rasheed Walker# - *Monroe Freeling* LG: Damien Lewis C- #Luke Fortner# - *Sam Hecht* RG: Robert Hunt - #Saahdiq Charles# RT: Taylor Moton - #Stone Forsythe# TE: Ja`Tavion Sanders - Mitchell Evans WR: Xavier Legette - Jalen Coker - Jimmy Horn Jr. QB: Bryce Young - #Kenny Pickett# RB: Chuba Hubbard - Trevor Etienne - #AJ Dillon# - Jonathon Brooks DEFENSE: LE: Tershawn Wharton - Bobby Brown III  NT: *Lee Hunter* - Cam Jackson RE: Derrick Brown - LaBryan Ray LOLB: Nic Scourton - Patrick Jones II  LILB: Trevin Wallace - Bam Martin-Scott - *Jackson Kuwatch* RILB: #Devin Lloyd# - Claudin Cherrelus  ROLB: #Jaelen Phillips# - Princely Umanmielen LCB: Jaycee Horn - Akayleb Evans RCB: Mike Jackson - *Will Lee III* - Chau Smith-Wade SS: Tre`von Moehrig - Lathan Ransom FS:  Nick Scott - *Zakee Wheatley* - Demani Richardson  SPECIAL TEAMS: K/KO: Ryan Fitzgerald P/H: Sam Martin KR: Trevor Etienne - Jimmy Horn Jr. PR: Trevor Etienne - Jimmy Horn Jr. LS: J.J.

    • His contract is guaranteed.  Legette is just not where he needs to be mentally.  Not fully invested, it seems. 
    • Literally like Hill. He's not QB1 material (now or ever), but if we can turn him into a H-back and use him like  Swiss army knife, that's his ticket to make the roster.  H-back/emergency QB.  I wonder how good his hands are?  If they are at least above average by NFL standards then we can line him up in the backfield, in the slot, split out wide and of course, in the Wildcat.
