YES!

Did Bledsoe end up decking Keyshawn?

[Perdogg]

Nah! They blew up and moved on. It's always good to see players talking with each other.

[pa mom]

That was so wild to see. Were you paying more attention--can you fill me in on what precipitated that?

My Redskins went down, too. Ugly day all around.

Bledsoe threw a pass to Johnson. Johnson caught it and was hit by an Eagle and coughed up the ball. The ball was caught by another Eagle who ran it in for a touchdown. Evidently Bledsow must have said something about it on the sidelines and there were some words exchanged.

The announcers were Aikman and Buck. I think it was Aikman who blamed the turnover on Bledsoe, and I thought with all due respect, that it was neither players fault. Bledsoe threw it, Johnson caught it, and the Eagles forced the turnover. It's football. Regroup and play on.

[pa mom]

Thanks, that's what I saw, but the words seemed so heated I thought it must be more. But who am I to try to understand men?

It was Lito Sheppard who forced the fumble, and Sheldon Brown who picked it up and scored.

This is the best game the Cowboys have played in seven years, in contrast to last week, which was one of the worst.

Dallas usually gets juiced for Philadelphia, but Parcells, it appears, decided he would open up the game and pass and pass and pass.

The Cowboys are so erratic, however, that they'll lose to the Giants next Monday night.

[Perdogg]

I am glad the Deadskins reverted to their losing ways, and whining about the officiating.

I'll second that! It was SO, SO SWEET! Anytime the Cowboys beat the Iggles is a good day. Anytime they beat them like they did today makes the memories so much the better. Was Dallas that good, or the Iggles that bad? If I didn't know any better, I would say that Reid threw the game by keeping an ineffective McNabb in and risk more serious injury. If Reid had really wanted to win the game, he would have put Detmer in a lot earlier. At any rate, it worked in Dallas's favor.
It was great to see McNabb held in check and w/o a td pass and to see TO held down and scoreless and frustrated. I hope the same effort is put foreward next week against the Giants. It's great to see the Iggles in last place in the NFC East afterfive weeks. Could this be the start of a trend?

I know this is last weeks thread..but..

The Cowboys just beat NYG by a field goal in OT.

Washington lost to KC.

Philly has a bye.

DALLAS is 1st in the NFC East at 4-2 in week 6...not bad..

How bout them Cowboys!?

[sinkspur]

Dallas is not going to any Super Bowls with Anthony Thomas in the backfield. The ground game sucked, again.

Dallas was lucky; they played a team that couldn't convert FOUR turnovers into ANY points.

Parity is nearly upon us, boys. Anybody can beat anybody, in any given week.

[pa mom]

The Skins will come back and win the NFC East. I know, I'm delusional. But let me--you know how dangerous the delusional can be!

[NCC-1701]

Hey, I don't care if it's an old thread, the results are what counts. It feels great to be on top(for now, of the NFC East. It's as it should be. Dallas has Seattle next week Philly has San Diego, the Giants are at Denver and the Skins host San Fran.
Dallas should be 5-2-0
Phiily-4-2-0
NYG-3-3-0
Washington-4-2-0
The win makes the coming week easier to deal with. BTW, I have that pic as my desktop wallpaper. Great to look at while logging on. I call it Dallas Greatness. How about this to go along with it:

And my Packers are one game out of first in the NFC North!! Woot woot!!...well yeah, they are 1-4 but still. < /sarcasm>
