The Raven

Did you notice that every time we tried it this game it failed miserably? Probably not since you still suggested it, but yeah. It failed miserably.

There's that tight man coverage again, working wonders for us

Dude, someone throw a flag.

That's not Pitta. That's Zuttah. He's gotta call a different protection. Tell me why Wagner's blocking the DT and Ducasse is blocking nobody, but Pitta's blocking a DE? That's the definition of stupidity.

They aren't smart enough to realize it.

Yup. Give my grandmother that line and we might get 100 yards.

Remember when we almost had a shot at Dez in the draft? Good times.

Cowboys line is incredible.

Can someone tell me what Zach Orr was doing on that play?

Dude, yeah. The first two were bad. That third one wasn't a penalty. It was a bad call. I'm of the belief that it's stupid to criticize a player for a ref's mistake. And I thought it was common knowledge I'm the leader of the I Hate Zuttah fan club. Oh well.

Several seconds after the block.

That was actually the best block I've ever seen Zuttah make, and by rule, it should have been legal. Whistle wasn't blown. CRAP call.

Dixon wasn't down. Bad call. I miss the days when linemen could block through the whistle.

Hey Pees! Stop playing that man to man coverage!!! We're getting beat too bad! Well guys, you called for more man coverage. That drive shows why it's a bad idea against the Cowboys.

Sorry, I'm violently allergic to stupidity and pessimism.

This just in. The 8-1 Cowboys are kinda pretty good. Guess I had to explain that to the plebs. Also, since the plebs are numerically illiterate, we have a top five pass defense.

What defense doesn't give up drives like this? I'll wait as long as it takes.

Do people realize we've held a Dallas offense to just 10 points while not having Jimmy Smith? Do you realize other teams are good? Do you realize Dez Bryant is a freak? Guess not.

Yeah, it has nothing to do with Dez Bryant being a literal football god.

Why are all of Joe's throws high?

Zadarius Smith is a nose tackle in the body of a DE. He can't run laterally or contain to save his life.

Where has Vlad Ducasse been all year? He knocked heads that drive. Yanda was incredible too. Great to have him back. That was fun.

UM WHAT

Here's a fascinating article (to me at least) detailing how quarterbacks can get themselves sacked. Thought I'd share it in an OL-oritented thread for informational purposes. http://www.sbnation.com/2016/11/18/13676686/nfl-quarterback-sacks-offensive-linemen-pass-blocking A lot of people tend to put all the blame on linemen, but there are many situations in which quarterbacks can be responsible. When OL get into their kickslide, the goal is to get back to a certain point where they anchor, based on the QB's drop and protection call. Sometimes, a QB misses their point, and the OL get the blame. This can also happen in the run game, where running backs, well, run the wrong way. They'll hit the C instead of the B. They'll bounce it outside when the line is expecting it inside.

Oh, and Ray is a terrible analyst.
