They basically need to win out (a virtual impossibility) and the teams ahead of them need to play 0.500 or worse the rest of the way.Life support or not, it’s Thanksgiving and probably the second biggest cash cow set of games of the season outside of the Super Bowl. They can’t have the Cowboys playing for basically nothing. They also couldn’t afford the blow out it was looking like either on Sunday.

Covey is a better returner and receiver anyway.Never really understood what happened with Covey. Wasn't he statistically the leagues best returner not that long ago?
2 hours ago2 hr I was yelling at my TV about this. You can see the umpire running in to pause the snap, and Dallas snaps it anyway. It should have been a dead play and penalty on Dallas.
2 hours ago2 hr Author 1 hour ago, vikas83 said:OK, with a couple days of distance from that crap show, I'll try and see the glass as half full (since none of us really want to). The simple answer is -- the offense failed primarily because the players made easily correctable mistakes. Now, the penalty thing since the bye is a SERIOUS issue that lands right in Siranni's lap -- 14 for 96 this week, 9 for 78 against the Lions, and 7 for 61 against GB. Now, were some of those calls questionable -- yeah (see OPI on Smitty and false start on Cam). But going back to this game:4th drive: Cam "false start" on 3rd and 2 leads to 3rd and 7, end up punting.6th drive (and really the next one as 5th was kneel down for half): Matt Pryor kills 20 yard completion on 2nd and 2 that would have gotten us to Dallas 40 because he can't line up correctly. Likely cost us at least 3 points.9th drive: complete 8 yard pass to the DAL 35, comes back on ridiculous OPI on Smitty. Then a false start on AJ, and we're in 1st and 25. Get it to the Dallas 38, miss FG. Likely cost us at least 3 points.10th drive: Hurts hit Smitty for 16 yards down to the 12, called back due to hands to the face by Big Fred. Saquon fumbles on next play. Cost us at least 3 points.3 potential scoring drives killed by our own mistakes. Not lining up correctly is unforgivable by Pryor. Terrible OPI call on Smitty. Fred was guilty -- that was a good call. But we're scoring in the 30s if we just stop screwing ourselves. This is on Nick -- the head coach takes the blame for sloppy play. I'm annoyed Gipson hasn't been cut -- we should elevate Covey for this game. A message needs to be sent.Not sure on the illegal formation if Fred was supposed to line up off the LOS or if Brown was not supposed to cover him up on the LOS. I saw the same penalty twice during the 1pm window. WRs see an ineligible player at the end of the formation and instinctively cover them up. I can guarantee this was coached up during the week. I can see halfway into the game that coaching point being forgotten. Still not acceptable, though.

I don't even think the Ump was in his 'spot' at the beginning of the play, which in itself would lead to a no play.

Further, the officiating, even if poor, should at least be neutral.Second half penalties...Eagles 9, Dallas 2.

But I don't think anyone will be able to beat the Rams. Similar to 2023. Our best wasn't going to be better than the Niners.

To me that’s not an error like some of the others. That’s one of those, this is football and a fast game. Penalties are gonna happen sometimes.That being said, the Eagles shot themselves in the foot but not lost is that the NFL wasn’t going to allow Dallas to play a meaningless Thanksgiving Day game.I sarcastically warned about that Sunday morning. I didn't expect it to be that blatant. It was the non-calls on Dallas that gave it away.
