GO COWBOYS!!!
Cowboys beat Philly! 17-3
Just keepin' it real in The City of Brotherly Love! The game started out with many, many penalties! ("penalty" - when a player does something illegal and a yellow flag is thrown by the referee) The Refs seemed to be on the Eagles side, but they got it (somewhat) evened out by the second half.
Players worth talking about...
~ The Dallas Defense - talk about stepping up! Our Defensive Line (big dudes trying to tackle the QB at all times) are banged up! We have three Defensive Ends out of the game right now, so our Secondary played a huge role in this game! (Remember - "secondary" - the fast guys who guard the Wide Receivers) Carr, Church and Sean Lee (actually a linebacker) got it done and held the Eagles to only 3 points! Air high five fellas!
~ Joseph Randle and Phillip Tanner (Running Backs - RB's) did a great job backing up for DeMarco Murray (remember he's out due to a knee injury). Randle did a lot of the leg work, and Tanner was able to score a TD ("touchdown")!
~ Tony Romo (QB) was able to connect most of the time to Dez Bryant, his #1 receiver! He hit Jason Witten (Tight End - TE) a few times, but was able to score with Terrance Williams (WR). (He averaged 11.8 yards per catch today... Not too bad for the Rookie from Baylor!)
As for the Eagles... Vick is still hurt (their main QB), Nick Foles left the game with a head injury (he'll be okay), which brought in the 3rd String QB - Matt Barkley. He played at USC and had a nice welcome into the NFL from Sean Lee (our linebacker who intercepted one of his passes). Needless to say - I enjoyed the poor showing from the Eagles. Nothing personal, it's business.
Standings... We are no longer tied for 1st in the NFC East... We are 1st! We play the Detroit Lions next week in Detroit. Two 4-3 teams going against each other! Preview to come mid-week!
Random Info:
~ Two random thoughts...
One - have you ever watched the movie Gladiator? It is my "flip to" station tonight during the Broncos vs. Colts game (Go Peyton)... and it is one of my favorite movies of all time! Don't watch it with the kids in the room, but do watch it in the near future! I quote this movie often, as we all should... "Strength and Honor!"
Two - for those of you are still following the MLB playoffs... we now have our World Series teams! The St. Louis Cardinals vs The Boston Red Sox! If you've ever been to Fenway Park (Boston) - you would know that it is an amazing place to play the sport of America's Past-time! The Boston Red Sox are in the American League - which is the league the Texas Rangers are in! I will be cheering for the Red Sox and the AL! For those of you who may remember this team from the movie Fever Pitch - yes, that is who I am referring to! And that is another great movie to add to your list for this week! World Series starts Wednesday night!
Happy movie watching... Gladiator and Fever Pitch! #GoSox :)
