If you got the Giants at 18-1 then your friends are idiots for questioning that...without a Belichek/Brady Pats or Chiefs like favorite in the division, that's a good number for almost any team. Let alone a team with a 2nd year QB in a division that didn't have a team that won more than 9 games last year. Where the best teams in that division are losing key OL pieces almost every week...

Like many Cowboys fans, he believes that Jason Garrett is the reason they have "underperformed" and Mike McCarthy is a super wizard. I just don't see it, in fact gun to head I'd take Garrett. He's a good head coach. So is McCarhy, but how many guys could win a superbowl with prime Aaron Rodgers. What has the guy accomplished with backup QBs?
Is a bozo, the cowboys will be worse with him. At least Garret wasn't a puppet, but that's all Mccarthy is going to be to Jerry Jones. Jones is why that team crashes every year, it's going to happen sooner this season.
is that I think Moore has the keys to the offense. For now at least. Even if it goes to McCarthy, they may have the horses in the WR corp to run his Mickey Mouse WCO. They'll probably neglect Zeke though. Speaking of Zeke, that OL is due for regression and they'll definitely start to feel it now with the retirement of Frederick and injury to Collins. Tyron Smith isn't getting younger either. That defense was loaded with talent but they've already started to shed 2nd contracts...see Byron Jones. Smith and LVE are awesome but have their questions in run defense.

You guys are priceless. A good many posters on this site were saying the same thing until of course Garrett became offensive coordinator here and now you are all acclaiming his genius.
Garrett has been a good head coach? Great? Absolutely not. I watch football with my buddy who is massive Cowboys fans and just says he's shit because they think all he does is stand on sideline and clapped. From my point of view he generally was pretty good with time management and always had his team prepped to play. The straw that broke the Camels back was when they didn't show up against the Jets last year. That's when the pitchforks came out. He's hated Garrett for years and I just never understood it.
Bozo. Horrible to walk away from points down there but Mccarthy thinks he's smarter than everyone else. He sold Jones a lie about all of his deep analytical dives, he's just older and more out of touch now.
with Aldon Smith? He's been mostly disinterested, he hit Goff in the helmet and didn't get called and then he falls into a sack? That's impressive? Ffs, I like Collinsworth and Michelle a lot but this love fest over a criminal who has barely made an impact is bizarre.
That will see McCarthy take a lot of heat and rightfully so. You have to tie the game there when you’ve got the shot. 4th and inches ok maybe but 4th and 3-4 you kick the Fg and tie the game.
Philly Dallas lose. And they both didn’t look that good and Dallas suffered injuries as well.
Getting to be like the NBA- the big stars play with a different set of rules. There is no way that would be a flag if Hopkins or Julio Jones was the receiver.
I completely agree with the call, and not just because
it went against the Cowboys. If a receiver can extend his arm like that, he can create and maintain separation from a better, faster DB throughout the play. The DB won't ever have a chance to contest the catch.
To me, it was a textbook example of why the rule exists.
RE: Yeah we all despise the Cowboys more than life itself
But that was a horrific call. That's 2 players hooking eachother's arms and competing. Oh well too bad. Fuck the Cowboys.
The wr jammed his arm out to build space between he and the defender. He pushed off. It wasn’t blatant pass interference but he definitely pushed off. Ramsey isn’t going to sell anything there he’s trying to cover the guy and lost space because of the arm extension from Gallup.
And really, cry me a River. The more painful the loss the better.
about McCarthy. He's like he won a Superbowl what has Garrett ever done? Some guys that win Superbowls are just good coaches who had great QBs and a great defense. Rodgers was unreal in his prime, I think people forget that already. Strangely he's a guy that talks about the ridiculous plays Rodgers pulls out his ass to win games all the time. McCarthy was one of those good coaches who won a Superbowl. Put Garrett in the same situation can't see why he wouldn't win one either. All offseason it was how good the Cowboys are going to be now they got a real head coach.
As far as that pass interference goes it wasn't nearly as bad as the missed call with the blow to the head that led to Cowboys score. McCarthy absolutely summed it up perfectly in his post game. Essentially that by the rule of the book its an OPI, but when the hell do you ever see that called in that spot? I thought the same damn thing after I watched it.
The Brady Bucs lost in bad fashion. Glad the steam has been taken out their sales living here. I usually root for the Bucs, but the insanity around signing a bunch of Free Agents drives me nuts. Can't imagine what happens if they lose to Panthers shitty team next week.
McCarthy's dumbass decision turned an even gambling day into big time plus territory with a 4-1 no score in 1 quarter bet as well as Rams.
Eagles lost.
The Giants are going into Monday Night into what is essentially the cat bird seat right now and it's fantastic to feel. I'm sure I'll be brought down to Earth tomorrow, but even if the Giants lose tomorrow, if it's close I'll feel really good about having a chance as long as we can steal a win in our first 4 games. Can't remember the last time I was this optimistic. I think all the haters of drafting Saquon Barkley are going to be in for a rude awakening when he puts this team on his back. Maybe we won't see him explode tomorrow, but I'm expecting a historic season from him as far as the 2nd half of it goes.
Couldn't ask for a better opening Sunday in a season where we aren't very good and playing on Monday night.

He just needed to talk with his grandma? Did I get that right? What a feel good story.
Hey, I'd settle for that sort of feel good story with DeAndre Baker any day of the week.
Just a matter of time. Not with the Giants of course. But someone...

Big turn there.
Arrogant as hell.
Tie the game. Your defense isnt good....take the tie. The rams could easily make this a two score game with somewhere around 8 min left.
Id take the 3 there
Lol busting my buddies balls about that now.
Even when it is the Cowboys.
Yep. If that were us, he'd completely blame Slayton. "He's got to know not to extend the arms. It will be called 99 times out of 100"
In fact, I think he said something similar on us in the past
It makes it better, come on. Fuck them.
I can :)

Basically a perfect Sunday.
Nownlets get a W tomorrow
