Week 14: Cowboys (7-5) @ Bears (6-6) Mon Night ESPN

[Guest]

I [expletive] LOVE THIS OFFENSE

[BigSlick]

Yo, when Michael Bush does that to you, give it up

[Soul]

Anybody complaining about the helmet to helmet needs to look at the ridiculous "tackle" there. Why launch? He had a great opportunity for easy wrap tackle.

 

Agreed. Nothing to gain, pure stupidity on display.

[Butterscup1679666578]

this is nice

[RynoRules]

McCown has great touch on screens and check downs. Maybe better than Cutler's.

[d_money]

Bring in Cavanaugh - don't want McCown to get hurt

The QB coach?

Or whoever the back up is, who is it btw?

[Irrelevant Dude]

I have no idea what that penalty is for

You mean the one where the defensive player jumped and launched his helmet at Marshall's helmet?

[Ryne Ween]

I remember when you used to hear, "Once your star QB goes down for significant time, it doesn't matter who the backup is because they all suck." At the very least McCown has helped keep this team afloat. Needed McCown the last few years.

The OC makes all the difference. Well, that and actual weapons.

 

They have certainly helped, but Caleb Hanie and Jason Campbell don't do this even in the 2013 offense.

I'm fairly certain Campbell could be doing this.

 

If Josh mccown can do this tons of guys can but definitely not campbell. Alshon Jeffrey would have 1 or 2 grabs a game fo 11 yards.

Fyi, Jordan Mills has been excellent tonight in space.

Either that or they'll go for the knees and be like- "well that's what you wanted if I can't launch at his head!"

Palmer

[Wilson A2000]

Best the offense has looked since Curtis Conway and Eric Kramer

Just tackle him normally.

[Irrelevant Dude]

This is Podlesh's best game in years.

[UMFan83]

Oh man how great would it be for the Lions to become unhinged and crash and burn

May as well keep the pressure on, what the hell

They get the Ravens and Giants at home, followed at a completely shiftless Vikings team. You pretty much can only pray for one more loss out of them. (Even given how dumb they are)

 

Bears need to win out

 

I dunno its....really bad. The Bears really shouldn't have lost those last two games, they may not be mathematically out, but...its really bad.

 

Bears will be favored @ CLE and the Ravens need the win @ DET on Monday. I like the odds of that happening and Detroit coming unglued.

 

The lines will probably change after tonight, but I believe the Bears/Browns line opened at Browns -1 or 2

The 83.0 career rated passer with a 60% completion percentage who's doing pretty good in Cleveland with basically one legit weapon? I think he'd be okay.

[Wilson A2000]

Briggs back next week?

I think the browns have a bit better D than Dallas at least

LOL CONTE

[UMFan83]

Briggs really needs to come back. I'm not sure how it would help the run D but but we need to do something to stop this horrible run d.

[RynoRules]

Wow - our LBs are terrible. The DLine is getting good push.

[UMFan83]

This is terrible, I don't care if we're winning by 28.

[rawaction]

Conte has at least 71 tackles tonight.

[Wilson A2000]

Tony Romo still sucks in December

[Ryne Ween]

I've never seen a team down 4 Tds run this easily.
