    Washington will keep the ball - his knee was clearly down.

    Cowboys screw it up and don't get a FG attempt off at the half.

    Dallas with a good drive to get on the fringe of FG range, but a strange decision not to save the final timeout for a potential FG, and then they run a play with 10 seconds left which resulted in Romo throwing to Austin on a crossing pattern.

    Not a good job there.

    Clock runs out without even an attempt at a field goal.

    14-0 at the half.

    Did anyone else hear Dan Patrick refer to the Giants game as THE final game in Giants Stadium?

    Sure did - think NBC will figure it out before Sunday night, or will they go to Cinncinati for the game?

    They really do think it's in Cincinnati. It wasn't a verbal slip.

    Dungy said on the pregame in his prediction that the Jets will miss the playoffs, that the Jets are going to Cincinnati.

    Someone will clue them in eventually. :smile:

    NFL.com still lists the game as at 1 PM. They have yet to correct it after NBC's announcement.

    Then again, NBC wanted Jets at Cincinnati, and they're not going to get it...


    Hey, maybe we'll get Jets at Cincinnati in the wild card round and maybe it'll be on Saturday, which would be a NBC game.

    Campbell getting smacked around like on MNF.

    Campbell and Heyer (one of the scrub OLs they've been using) are down.

    they clued them in!

    Michaels says Bengals at Jets

    and the screen says at the Meadowlands.

    I think that was deliberate, because someone at NBC must have noticed the errors.

    NBC has figured out that the game is in New Jersey, but haven't acknowledged that that means that today wasn't the last game at Giants Stadium.

    Redskins have been playing their safeties very deep tonight, as Collinsworth just mentioned.

    It's making things easy for Dallas.

    I can't remember the last time Romo went deep. He's taking the easy underneath throws for first down after first down. (that's when they're not running up the middle for good gains because there's no one there for Washington)

    Blache not making any adjustments.

    Similar situation to earlier in the game, and Dallas again eschews the 45-50 yarder and goes for it on 4th and less than 1.

    Again, Barber is stuffed.

    One of the only big plays for the Redskins tonight.

    They take over at about their 29.

    Cowboys again don't make it on 4th and short.

    Didn't he say something like this before and got it thrown back in his face?

    same old, same old.

    Redskins refuse to make any adjustments on defense, and Dallas is doing the same stuff.

    yeah, when he said Dallas has "no chance" to beat New Orleans and Harrison agreed with him.

    This time, it was phrased more as a prediction, but he was pretty definite about it.

    Then again, he thinks the game is in Cincinnati, so that probably impacted his prediction.

    Hopefully, Sanchez makes similar comments to Romo's while being interviewed in the post game about the motivation for his 3TD(1 rushing) performance.

    so the six teams are decided for the NFC*, but a lot can still happen with the seeding. Nothing is locked in yet.


    *-barring the Redskins making an aboutface, which is unlikely. What an uninspired effort tonight.

    It was the Giants last game, and that was the reference. A shit game by the Giants in their last game in the Meadowlands.

    Not everything is a conspiracy to screw the Jets folks.

    Look at the bright side, even though Dungy picked the bengals , Harrison called the Bengals "frauds" and said he likes the Jets next week, even though he knows the Jets and their fans hate him!
