Like I said, we aren't winning any games until Romo is back.

Which by then we'll be 2-7 so our season probably won't matter anymore.



Man so many close losses for Dallas in this stretch. And yet again they get screwed by the dipshit OT rules which HUGELY favor the team that wins the toss. When both defenses are winded at the end of a long battle to a tie game, it makes no sense to make it so lopsided with the toss determining the winner in most cases.

Proper OT should give both sides a possession. Example : Team A scores a TD on 1st possession of OT, then Team B must score a TD to keep it alive. Or, just play the quarter out with no timeouts.

Oh well. Great game overall.

Or better yet, no overtime at all. Let's have ties like in real football.

Nope to both, just adopt the college overtime no ties both teams would get the ball at least once and scoring would increase.  The two point conversion they took from the college game made the game better so would its overtime rule.



That's sort of what I said (in that both teams should definitely get a chance for possession at least once in OT, but either play a full quarter, or have to match points on drives that at least match what the other team just did).

While I like the college system even better, I wonder if it might be a problem with the NFLPA? I honestly don't know why the NFL has such a boned-up OT system.

I like the college way better as well. But the NFL seems slow on adopting rules to better the game, they just seem obsessed with pussyfying it than anything.






Gotta love Stephanie hah.

I knew I should have stuck with the 49ers.
