There is sometimes a pack mentality here  
JonC : 11/24/2015 11:07 am : link
this isn't a sound example of it, however. The pack here is railing in favor of handling business with integrity and class, and one individual is pounding the gavel for the opposite and winning at all costs being the only acceptable approach.

Sure you can point to examples of a group of posters all agreeing about how bad someone's posts/ideas/etc. is and going after them, especially if they double down. And if that is seen as a display of pack mentality, then I can agree with that to a point. However, when I think of pack mentality, it reminds me of group think in which the stronger opinions attract those with no or weak opinions. I don't necessarily think that people with no opinion or weak opinions being drawn to stronger opinions as much as there being a bunch of people, who think the same just happening to go after someone for their dumb posts/ideas/etc.

I don't think it's necessarily pack mentality or group think as much as BBI being full of assholes.

The Giants were outplayed by Dallas in week 1. They had a chance to win the game anyway and blew it. This is a trend that has continued throughout the season. It's no longer a coincidence. They struggle making simple decisions that lead to wins/losses.

We've had our share of injuries too and you could definitely point to that. But there is no position in the NFL like QB. It cripples your season. Look at the Colts after Manning and then when they got luck. Perennial playoff team, first pick, playoffs again.

Even if the Giants beat Dallas in week 1 I doubt they would have beat them at metlife had romo played. So the whole sweep thing is misleading in itself.

I hope you realize that golden boy tony romo career December record is 12-17. Last I looked, that's the part of the calendar that's coming up


Romo has 18 wins, 19 loses in December, and has won his last 5 games.

Romo has thrown 60 TDs, 28 INTs, and has a 94.1 QB rating. The QB position isn't the problem with Dallas losing in December. It has been about bad defense.

In the last 8 losses the defense gave up 37, 45, 28, 34, 31, 20, 37, and 19. Only in two of the last 8 losses in December did the defense play well.

Had Dallas played better defense, the Dallas December record under Romo would actually be pretty good.
Well..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 11/24/2015 11:22 am : link
since the Cowboys are undefeated with Romo and winless without him, they probably should have a slew of Lombardi's to point to in the past few years, no?

The excuse making for the Cowboys is incredible. Meanwhile, the Giants have had the most injured team three years running and fuckstains like ODB don't make excuses, they come to the board weekly saying "Fire Coughlin and Reese".

The grass is greener, especially in places where the trophy cabinets are emptier.

Once again...just looking at this season...

Had the Giants defense played a little better and had the coaches not bungled the clock management in a few games, the Giants would be 9-1.

All this past nonsense doesn't change the fact that the Cowboys are one game away from being done...and that the Giants control their own destiny.

Tony Romo has played with more talent on his team than anyone not named Peyton Manning in his career. Please with the excuses. He has cost them many a game.

For someone who is so good and so great.... 2 wins in 12 years in unacceptable. And lets not forget one of those wins came from a disgraceful refereeing performance.

I am guessing they weren't starters.
when did Romo  
Matt in SGS : 11/24/2015 11:29 am : link
turn into some strange combination of Tom Brady, Joe Montana, and Terry Bradshaw. Did I miss all the times he rolled up wins by the bunches and championships? So with Romo are the Cowboys a 10-0 team?

Romo is a very good player, who has been maligned for high profile chokes in clutch games over the years which really takes away from the fact that he is a damn good QB. That said, it has been few and far between over the years where we saw Romo rise up and lead the Cowboys to big wins when they counted. How many times did the Cowboys blow a Week 17 game with a win and in playoff on the line and they not only lost, but lost big?

I have said here a few times that the Giants plan is to build for next season as this year was about fully establishing the McAdoo offense and win with Eli and next year they will spend big/draft defense and be in position to make some big noise in 2016. The Cowboys were the favorite, but the Romo injury ruined their season. However, now that he's back, this doesn't mean that the Cowboys run the table. There is a better than decent chance they lose 2 of the next 3 games (Carolina, @ Washington, @ Green Bay). I personally think the Cowboys season ended when they lost that Tampa game because that meant they really had to run the table to get a shot at winning. It's not going to happen.

Sorry ODB... had to take care of something here at work *winks at Rory*.

But for a team so stacked with talent you'd think that they could overcome losing their QB wouldn't you? Let's take your example in the Colts. They lose Luck but guess which QB has most of the wins for that team this season? The backup QB. The Niners lose their starter, and the back up comes in and wins a game. Shit, even in our own history we've seen backup QBs come in and win not only games but the Super Bowl. And for a team with a "Better defense, much better offensive line. Equal or better at the skill positions.", you'd think, as was said earlier in this thread, that they'd beat at least a few of the teams they lost to during their losing streak. I will agree that going from Romo to Weedon/Cassel is a MAJOR downgrade but as I heard an analyst say this past Sunday (for get who), and I agree with him, the QB wasn't the ONLY problem for that team during that losing streak. The running game suffered... the defense couldn't hold any kind of lead... and there were some questionable coaching decisions in there as well.

Eli has won so many times down in AT&T stadium that when the team lost the first game of the season it was a bit of a shock when it didn't happen... and that was with a new defense being shown in a real game for the first time. The games between those two teams have ALWAYS been very close, tight games with neither team showing any kind of domination and both teams have won their fair share. Now if you want to say the Eagles have had the Giants' number (for whatever really strange, fucked up reason), then I can't argue too much with that. But I don't see this huge gap between the teams.
Oh yeah...

The poster insinuated that it was Romo's play that has lead to troubles for Dallas in December. I merely posted the facts to show otherwise.

I love how once I post facts on one subject, the subject is changed in the next post. Now it's about a how great a team Romo has, or choking in big games, and not winning in the playoffs, and so on.

A few thoughts about the Cowboys:  
81_Great_Dane : 11/24/2015 12:28 pm : link
1) They didn't win a game with Cassel or Wheedon at QB. Both are lousy QBs, but both have won games in the NFL. The Cowboys are supposed to have plenty of talent, including that All-World OL -- Zach Martin!! La'el Collins!! The Guys Reese Shoulda Got!!!!! -- and yet they couldn't find a way to let a veteran NFL QB manage a game and get a win.

2) Romo is a huge difference maker. So is Dez Bryant. Both got hurt. So you can assume that if Romo hadn't missed games, and Dez hadn't missed games, their record would be better. So what? If Victor Cruz hadn't missed games, and if JPP hadn't missed games, the Giants' record would be better. So what? Injuries happen. Romo and Dez weren't shot in a nightclub, they were hurt on the field. It's football. They didn't stay healthy, the Cowboys were tested and came up short.

3) That All-World OL was supposed to be so great that any RB would rack up DeMarco Murray numbers, or close to them, and they were supposed to protect Romo. Not so much, in either case.

Overrated.

And yet they could still win the division, now that Romo and Dez are back.

Didn't Matt Cassel..

djm : 11/24/2015 1:09 pm : link
almost EVERYONE had the Giants sucking balls this season. Almost everyone had Philly and Dallas outperforming NYG this season. Here we are with a legit shot to win 9 games and win the East. Romo or no Romo this would be a huge step forward for this franchise if they could make the playoffs and host a playoff game. I don't give a fuck about Romo or how poor poor dallas lost their QB and couldn't fuck their way out of a paper bag for 7 weeks. Who the fuck cares? It's all about NOW. It's all about Eli and Coughlin and Reese finding their way back to the postseason and developing a winning identity again here with the Giants. So shut the fuck up and focus on what's at stake here!! You think anyone is going to give a fuck about the Cowboys record if the Giants are HOSTING A FUCKING PLAYOFF GAME IN JANUARY!!????

that Dallas would likely be leading this division handily with Romo and Bryant. I don't think they're significantly better than the Giants either, but they are, when healthy, probably the best team in the NFC East.

But being the best team doesn't really mean shit in the grand scheme of things - the Giants were not the best team in 07 or 11, and frankly, I don't give a shit, cause the hardware is all that counts.

who cares? Of course it's not far fetched to say Romo's injury had a big impact. Anyone with a brain would agree with that but what people are trying to get across is it doesn't fucking matter anymore.

Were the Giants the best team in 2011? Fuck no. But they were the best when it counted.

All that matters is building a winner here again. Winning begets winning. Just win. Dallas can take solace in their preseason rankings and use that as a rallying cry for 2016. That and 2 bux gets you a shitty cup of coffee.

Or I could say the Cowboys are lucky we were without JPP, our safeties, Cruz, Beatty, Prince, and now Hankins.

turned into which team is better (NYG vs Dallas), especially when the OP has NOTHING to do with that.

Fact is, Dallas lets slide a gigantic POS that can get away with anything but a couple lesser players get axed for not wearing a fucking suit.

It's typical Dallas and that's why people (other than ODB) hate Dallas.

Depends where the giants losses come. If the Giants lost 2 non-conference games and 1 to the Vikes or Panthers then the Giants would be tied with Dallas for the division record and would have a better conference record.

is the pathetic pack mentality around here. The Eagles and Cowboys have shit on the Giants in recent years. But they are always "a zoo, a joke, etc, etc."


The Cowboys are better than the Giants. Better defense, much better offensive line. Equal or better at the skill positions. Their quarterback got hurt. That's the only reason the Giants have a chance to win this division.

We'll see how much of a joke the cowboys are Friday Morning. They're going to beat the Panthers and put the pressure on the Giants the rest of the way. The Giants better win at least 9 games. Because Dallas will get to 8.


1. Yes the Cowboys/Eagles have gotten the best of us in recent years. Who gives a fuck? In the midst of all that greatness of beating up on a lousy to mediocre football team both have combined for all of 1 playoff win that the officials handed to them on a silver platter. So congrats Eagles/Cowboys you win a set of steak knives.
2. The Cowboys have a better D and O-Line, but skill positions? when healthy our corners are better and I will take our 3 rb's over their pairing, especially if the Olines were equal. WR is probably a wash because it's OBJ vs. Dez and the rest of the WR's on both teams are ordinary. QB's- Romo and Eli are damn close, but the edge has to go to Eli in a big spot.
3. Friday morning? they have a shit-ton of work to do before that vs. a team that hasn't lost a game all year. That ain't the Miami Dolphins they are facing.
