Wild Card Weekend Boogaloo: Packers/Cowboys Edition

Welcome back to the festivities! Are the pizza, pills and booze at the ready? I’m sure they are. Let’s go.

To The Game!

Packers/Cowboys:

-Huh. I didn’t realize that Love finished #2 (gross!) in TD passes this year. How he did that with starters Watson and Doubs being banged up most of the time and tight ends Musgrave and Kraft being serviceable but nothing special tells me that there is more to come. Especially with Wicks and Reed stepping up as rookies.

-Harbinger?: Green Bay is 5-0 at AT&T Stadium. Of course getting the W today is a hard ask given the way that Dallas has played at home this year.

-Dallas Never Gets The Calls!: Au contraire, mon chou-chou. The team led the league in first downs via penalty flags with a robust 43.

-Reminder: It’s a bit hard to believe that this young-ish Packers squadoo was dead in the water at one point. After nine games they were sitting at 3-6.

-The rumor has yet to be confirmed but Micah Parsons eats planets for breakfast.

-Personal Observation: I don’t want Jerry Jones to have any nice things. I won’t be taking any questions.

-Though Green Bay is on a roll, so is Jaire Alexander’s ankle. He’s a game-timer and should he not be able to play there’s no way Lamb lies down in Arlington.

-Much will be made of the playoff history between these teams and for once I think it’s warranted. There’s been several memorable tilts but they’re also tied in second place in all-time playoff wins with 36.

Show me what you got.

I dunno if I’ve ever seen a stretch play executed without a hold called.

Horatio Cornblower

My pre-season assessment of Dak as a nice guy who has a ceiling, and that ceiling is not a Super Bowl QB is seeming to be a lot more accurate than I would like it to be.

Spur

So……….Wemby with the Spurs is looking good.

litre_cola

Playoff Dak! A fool (me) and his money are soon to part.

Doktor Zymm

I think you can panic 38 seconds early Horatio

Horatio Cornblower

Dog’s about to be pretty happy, anyway.

King Hippo

Metroplex Reacts Reasonably

BrettFavresColonoscopy

NOW the Cowboys blog should start panicking.

fleshwound_NPG

LOL NO WAY

Horatio Cornblower

Oh wow, Dallas had an incomplete pass and ran on on second.

WHO COULD HAVE SEEN THAT COMING!?!?

King Hippo

I have two work calls scheduled tomorrow morning- but none of the participants are Black so it’s kewl

Spur

Finally a Flag for Micah. Guy is held every play.

Horatio Cornblower

That is the first I’ve seen him draw all season.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Is Flag for Micah the sequel to Flowers for Algernon?

litre_cola

Charlie Gordon nods.

King Hippo

Yeah, that might just be a hold

LemonJello

*checks clock, sees it’s time for-a-commenting*

Laptop: “You have a Windows Update, would you like to install it now?”

No.

Laptop: “Restarting. Fuck you!”

Finally completes install, taking only most of the 1st Quarter.

YEAHHHHHH…..HERE WE GO!

Brick Meathook

Those Fox newscasters got some butt-ugly faces. And that’s from the promos, where they make them look their best.

fleshwound_NPG

that whole ideology is full of angry fuglies. except brandi love, whom is very much enhanced

King Hippo

Fox thinking – a MAN doesn’t need to be attractive, and we assume you only look a woman in her tits.

Horatio Cornblower

So I guess the play clock is just a suggestion now.

Spur

I know a Belichick led team wouldn’t have these idiot penalties.

Horatio Cornblower

Well yeah, because they’d be 6-11 and not in the play-offs.

Spur

there is that but still

fleshwound_NPG

grumblegrumble more time to bang your mom grumblegrumble

Horatio Cornblower

Fair catch interference. How do you even put yourself in that position? How?

Horatio Cornblower

I’ll take “Things Said By Desperate Call Girls In Jerry Jones’s Suite” for $800, Alex.

Horatio Cornblower

Seems a bit early for that. I’m going to wait for the second quarter before calling fro unrestrained panic.

Doktor Zymm

LOL Cowboys?

Doktor Zymm

Yup

Horatio Cornblower

Ah yes, the ol’ “run it on 2nd and 10 when the pass on 1st and 10 didn’t work” play. No one would ever suspect that!

(Green Bay did, in fact suspect that)

Doktor Zymm

Based on reactions I would say there are more Pack fans than Cow fans in this Chicago airport UC

Mr. Ayo

YEAH….. HERE WE GO!!!!

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Alright if I’m gonna pull for Dallas to beat the hated packers, I’m at least gonna laugh about this again

Horatio Cornblower

I suspect the dog will be getting his walk very soon.

Doktor Zymm

Hey, you never know, just because GB moved the ball pretty effortlessly on that first drive doesn’t mean the Cowboys won’t respond and tighten up the defense and hehe, nah, hope you have fun with your dog!

Horatio Cornblower

Don’t forget two dipshit penalties!

Spur

I found some old model glue I might start huffing.

Doktor Zymm

Should I just put “LOL Cowboys” on a macro?

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Hey, Horatio, you want to tell your team Green Bay is gonna run the ball a lot?

Doktor Zymm

Like they could do anything about it, lol

Horatio Cornblower

I would, but I don’t want to wake McCarthy up from the nap he was obviously taking in the film room.

litre_cola

I am not ready for the Packers to be good again

fleshwound_NPG

they havent been legit bad for a stretch since 1991

litre_cola

The Majik man?

Doktor Zymm

Functional, non-toxic organizations don’t stay crappy for long, but this was exceptionally quick

fleshwound_NPG

with brady/belichick both gone, and a bunch of black qbs, pretty sure we are gonna see a significant drop in roughing qb calls next few years

BrettFavresColonoscopy

I know I stopped watching football the last six weeks or so of the regular season but is Jordan Love actually good? Good mobility, read, decision, and throws so far.

Doktor Zymm

Sure looks like a solid chance

Horatio Cornblower

He’s got potential. Seems to have cut down the “throwing it to the other team” issue he had early on.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Phenomenal tackle on Aaron Jones by that Green Bay OLineman

Horatio Cornblower

Jones never saw it coming.

Horatio Cornblower

Dallas wasting no time with the unnecessary penalties killing otherwise good plays. Solid start.

Spur

you can set your watch to it

fleshwound_NPG

belichick’s body is still not yet cold and everybody is starting to receive kickoffs again

Spur

Grumble beyond the grave

Horatio Cornblower

Fox didn’t even wait one second to get an Ice Bowl image out there.

Doktor Zymm

Huh, that commercial about a ‘tiny little prick’ was for diabeetus testing, nothing about Brett Farve

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Can we find a way for both of these teams to lose?

Horatio Cornblower

Flipped over to the game just in time to see some woman in a commercial say “it’s just a little tiny prick” and I thought “Oh man, what has Brett Favre done now?”

Doktor Zymm

Should have scrolled down before commenting almost the exact same thing, lol

litre_cola

I think the NGCP are going to take the Pack behind the woodshed for a beating.

Doktor Zymm

You’re probably right but I really hope you’re wrong

fleshwound_NPG

hope both teams lose, but the funniest result is cowboys not winning

Spur

Sweet, the game is on 4k.

Spur

If Dallas loses today, Belichick is the Dallas coach Monday morning.

Redshirt

He may be officially introduced before McCarthy can reach midfield for the postgame handshake.

Horatio Cornblower

Just what I was hoping for, a 71-year-old who can’t draft for shit and who hasn’t accomplished anything since the QB GOAT left. That’ll end this 28-year-old drought.

Doktor Zymm

At least you would probably have a career season at commenting!

litre_cola

Could he coexist with Double J?

Doktor Zymm

Lol, they’re paying people $20/hr to shovel out Highmark

Spur

and a spiff of Fireball

Horatio Cornblower

Where?

comment image&ct=g

Doktor Zymm

I can’t believe I didn’t know the official name of the JERRYDOME until now

Doktor Zymm

Got a good view of the single TV at the United club, also some gummi bears and generic red wine. Playoff snack of champions!

Spur

Folks

Redshirt

Dad: “Who plays first today?”
Me: “Dallas and Green Bay.”
Dad: “Who are we rooting for?”
Me: “Huh, that’s a tough one.”
Dad: “We’re rooting for Green Bay.”
Me: “We are?”
Dad: “No, I’m tell you. We’re rooting for Green Bay!”

Nothing is more powerful that Sports Hatedom.

King Hippo

You have to wonder what planet the “hurr durr, Cowpersons don’t git no calls” folk live on.

Doktor Zymm

Nawt Planet Detroit, that’s for sure

Spur

Dallas commits so many penalties, it just appears like the Refs are bias.

Horatio Cornblower

Parsons gets held on every play and it’s never called. It’s weird. Other than that Dallas’s real problem is that they’re a bunch of undisciplined louts who tend to commit a lot of penalties.
