Nov 8, 2009 6:23 PM |
|

Nov 8, 2009 7:02 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Terrible. And they're missing the giant TV over the field too. RT @THunley9 @DCStarJEllis How's the internet connection at The Linc?
Nov 8, 2009 7:03 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Kickoff just about 15 minutes away, and lots of empty seats.
Nov 8, 2009 7:09 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Now that's mean. RT @pinstripes213 They're Probably still mourning the phillies.
Nov 8, 2009 7:13 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Lotta pressure on the Cowboys to put last year to bed tonight. Very interested to see how they respond.
Nov 8, 2009 7:18 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Captains are Witten, Ware, James and Hurd (ST Captain)
Nov 8, 2009 7:24 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Strong accent on the referee tonight. Walt Coleman. Get used to that.
Nov 8, 2009 7:25 PM |
 |
derekeagleton Ware, James, Witten and Hurd are the captains for tonight's game. Cowboys win coin toss and elect to receive.
Nov 8, 2009 7:25 PM |
 |
dallascowboys Fast Start In Crucial Tonight: You could probably say that about any NFL game, but tonight, it seems even more .. http://bit.ly/1Khcrt
Nov 8, 2009 7:27 PM |
|
dallascowboys Ogletree Active; No Surprise Inactives: Cowboys rookie wide receiver Kevin Ogletree is active for the second co.. http://bit.ly/1mtV2n
Nov 8, 2009 7:27 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Homefield advantage has to make Philly the favorite. RT @StephStouffer What would you predict the odds are for the #Cowboys to win tonight?
Nov 8, 2009 7:29 PM |
|
derekeagleton It's crazy how much Philly fans are in love with the Rocky...they play clips on their video board from the movie before every game.
Nov 8, 2009 7:31 PM |
|
derekeagleton Cowboys start at their 22.
Nov 8, 2009 7:31 PM |
|
derekeagleton Romo completes a slant to Roy on 3rd down for 21 yd gain to DAL 45.
Nov 8, 2009 7:33 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Remember Lunch Break listeners, I predicted a breakout game for Roy Williams. Philly's got to make him beat them.
Nov 8, 2009 7:34 PM |
|
derekeagleton Romo is sacked by Parker. It looked like a busted play.
Nov 8, 2009 7:34 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Rare shank for Mat McBriar, just 33 yards... Cowboys had a chance to create a field position advantage there and didn't capitalize.
Nov 8, 2009 7:36 PM |
|
derekeagleton 3rd & 17, PHI blitz, Romo completes screen to Choice who picks up about 8 leading to punt. McBriar only punts 33 yds. PHI starts at PHI 21.
Nov 8, 2009 7:36 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Eagles start out with three wides.
Nov 8, 2009 7:37 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Don't know why Newman would be disappointed, he never catches the ball anyway.
Nov 8, 2009 7:39 PM |
|
derekeagleton Newman makes a good play to break up a pass then kicks the ball drawing a delay of game penalty.
Nov 8, 2009 7:40 PM |
|
derekeagleton Sensabaugh gets a pick on a deflected pass giving DAL possession at the PHI 37.
Nov 8, 2009 7:40 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis So Sensabaugh proves he CAN catch with the cast on. Big early break for the Cowboys. Need to get points here. Bradie James had the tip.
Nov 8, 2009 7:41 PM |
|
derekeagleton Wildcat formation run by Choice for 10 yds but holding call on Anderson negates the play and moves DAL back 10 more yds.
Nov 8, 2009 7:42 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Eagles are throwing some creative stuff at the Cowboys O-Line... Important to get adjusted to it early.
Nov 8, 2009 7:42 PM |
|
derekeagleton Barber picks up 12 on a short pass, then runs for 2 more to bring up 3rd & 6 from PHI 33.
Nov 8, 2009 7:42 PM |
|
derekeagleton DAL is 1 for 2 on 3rd downs.
Nov 8, 2009 7:43 PM |
|
derekeagleton Make that 2 for 3...Romo throws to Witten on deep out for 9 yards and another first down at the PHI 29.
Nov 8, 2009 7:43 PM |
|
derekeagleton correction: PHI 24.
Nov 8, 2009 7:44 PM |
|
derekeagleton Ogletree picks up six yds on an reverse.
Nov 8, 2009 7:44 PM |
|
derekeagleton False start Columbo moved DAL back to 23. 2nd & 9.
Nov 8, 2009 7:45 PM |
|
derekeagleton 2nd & 9, Pass to Austin was too high bouncing off his hands.
Nov 8, 2009 7:46 PM |
|
derekeagleton Ogletree picks up 21 yds with quick screen.
Nov 8, 2009 7:46 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Great play on that bubble screen @KOforPrez
Nov 8, 2009 7:47 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Never thought I'd see the Cowboys make the wildcat work for a touchdown. First time it's really worked all year I think.
Nov 8, 2009 7:47 PM |
|
derekeagleton 1st & goal on 3, wildcat formation run by Choice for TD. 7 plays, 37 yards, 4:07 drive time. 7:54 left in 1st. DAL 7 PHI 0.
Nov 8, 2009 7:48 PM |
|
derekeagleton PHI takes possession at their 16 after kick return by Hobbs for 13 yds.
Nov 8, 2009 7:51 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis As great as Buehler's been with the touchbacks, the Cowboys seem better off when the guy returns. Great kickoff coverage and a gang tackle.
Nov 8, 2009 7:51 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis The Eagles are using their fullback Leonard Weaver in the running game more than most teams will.
Nov 8, 2009 7:53 PM |
|
derekeagleton Two runs by PHI (McCoy and Weaver) brings up 3rd & 1. McNabb hurried by Ware forcing errant throw. 3 and out in both PHI possessions.
Nov 8, 2009 7:55 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Felix series coming up.
Nov 8, 2009 7:56 PM |
|
derekeagleton DAL takes possession at their 41.
Nov 8, 2009 7:56 PM |
|
dallascowboys Welcome To Blitzville, Pennsylvania: The first series of the game for each team was a pretty good indication &n.. http://bit.ly/1adfBz
Nov 8, 2009 7:58 PM |
|
dallascowboys Razorback Finally Pays Dividends: The Cowboys have tried the single-wing Razorback (or Wildcat) formation only .. http://bit.ly/4iQNE0
Nov 8, 2009 7:58 PM |
|
derekeagleton Incomplete pass (Parker beat Columbo creating pressure) & 3 yd run by Felix brings up 3rd & 7.
Nov 8, 2009 7:58 PM |
|
derekeagleton 5 yd gain by Witten on out route brings up 4th down and punt.
Nov 8, 2009 7:59 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis The way this is shaping up, I'm expecting about 55 throws from McNabb tonight.
Nov 8, 2009 8:01 PM |
|
derekeagleton PHI takes possession at their 15.
Nov 8, 2009 8:01 PM |
|
derekeagleton Slant to Maclin for 15 yds.
Nov 8, 2009 8:01 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis A sack for Keith Brooking running McNabb out of bounds.
Nov 8, 2009 8:02 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Jason Peters is hurt, got his knee rolled up.
Nov 8, 2009 8:02 PM |
|
derekeagleton Good coverage downfield forces McNabb to scramble and forced out of bounds by Brooking for sack.
Nov 8, 2009 8:02 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Looks like to me Peters is done for at least the night... Limping heavily and needs help from two people. Herreman shifts to left tackle.
Nov 8, 2009 8:04 PM |
|
derekeagleton Ratliff sacks McNabb. PHI starting left tackle Jason Peters is down hurt. Looks like his knee was rolled on from the back.
Nov 8, 2009 8:04 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Backup center Nick Cole shifts to left guard, Herremans to left tackle.
Nov 8, 2009 8:05 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis So a penalty on Herremans his first play at left tackle... inauspicious start eh?
Nov 8, 2009 8:06 PM |
|
derekeagleton Weaver picks up 16 but illegal formation moves PHI back to their 17. Now 3rd & 23.
Nov 8, 2009 8:06 PM |
|
derekeagleton Avant almost gets the 1st down after catching pass for 20 yds to PHI 36.
Nov 8, 2009 8:07 PM |
|
derekeagleton 48 yd punt gives DAL possession at their 15.
Nov 8, 2009 8:07 PM |
|
derekeagleton Romo and Roy are now 2 for 2. Roy picks up 13 on slant.
Nov 8, 2009 8:08 PM |
|
derekeagleton Bennett drops pass bringing up 3rd & 10.
Nov 8, 2009 8:10 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Looks like the Cowboys are going to be keeping more guys in to protect the blitz tonight... Just two WRs on that third and 10 play.
Nov 8, 2009 8:11 PM |
|
derekeagleton Pass to Witten for 5 yards forces punt. McBriar kicks 49 yds out of bounds to PHI 19. More important, Jackson didn't have chance to return.
Nov 8, 2009 8:11 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis The boo birds are getting onto McNabb already.
Nov 8, 2009 8:12 PM |
|
derekeagleton End of 1st quarter...DAL 7 PHI 0. PHI has the ball at their 22.
Nov 8, 2009 8:14 PM |
|
derekeagleton Avant makes a great catch for 23 yds over Scandrick to their 45.
Nov 8, 2009 8:16 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Great catch by Avant for the first down. Back to back weeks Scandrick has been in position only to have his guy catch it.
Nov 8, 2009 8:16 PM |
|
derekeagleton McNabb heating up with 20 yd gain to Celek over middle covered by Sensabaugh.
Nov 8, 2009 8:16 PM |
|
derekeagleton Ware hits McNabb causing the pass to flutter out for incompletion.
Nov 8, 2009 8:17 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Maclin had Jenkins and Hamlin beat for a TD if not for Ware hitting McNabb's arm.
Nov 8, 2009 8:17 PM |
|
derekeagleton Siavii misses the tackle in backfield and allows McCoy to pick up 1st down at DAL 18.
Nov 8, 2009 8:18 PM |
|
derekeagleton Jenkins breaks up the pass on 2nd & 9.
Nov 8, 2009 8:19 PM |
|
derekeagleton Ratliff gets his 2nd sack of the game for 10 yd loss back at the PHI 27. Creates a 45 yd field goal attempt.
Nov 8, 2009 8:20 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Man Ratliff is a freakin beast. A travesty if he isn't All-Pro this year. I challenge anyone to name two better defensive tackles.
Nov 8, 2009 8:21 PM |
|
derekeagleton The Akers kick is good. 10 plays, 55 yards, 3:30 drive time. 11:38 left in 2nd quarter, DAL 7 PHI 3.
Nov 8, 2009 8:21 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Jason Peters and Quintin Demps both have ankle injuries, they've gone to the locker room for x-rays.
Nov 8, 2009 8:21 PM |
|
derekeagleton Hamlin was taken to the lockerroom. No injury has been reported. We'll let you know when we know more.
Nov 8, 2009 8:22 PM |
|
derekeagleton DAL starts 4th possession at their 25.
Nov 8, 2009 8:23 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Here comes Cory Procter.
Nov 8, 2009 8:25 PM |
|
derekeagleton Wildcat formation run by Choice for 9 yds. 3rd time they've run this formation/play this game. 2 nice gains and a TD to show for it.
Nov 8, 2009 8:25 PM |
|
derekeagleton Hamlin is back on the sideline. Gurode is injured on the play. Proctor replaces him.
Nov 8, 2009 8:26 PM |
|
derekeagleton Wildcat formation run up middle for 1st down.
Nov 8, 2009 8:27 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Procter last played center for the Cowboys in 2007, relieving Gurode (ankle). He came in against Philly and then played vs. Carolina.
Nov 8, 2009 8:27 PM |
|
derekeagleton Witten and Romo read blitz and throw hot to Witten for 10 yd pickup.
Nov 8, 2009 8:28 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Romo had Austin open, just couldn't get rid of it soon enough. Romo didn't have anywhere to step up b/c Procter got driven back.
Nov 8, 2009 8:30 PM |
|
derekeagleton Romo is sacked on 3rd & 9 after pocket collapsed up middle.
Nov 8, 2009 8:30 PM |
|
derekeagleton Beautiful punt by McBriar downed at 1 but negated by illegal man downfield on Curtis Johnson.
Nov 8, 2009 8:31 PM |
|
derekeagleton On 2nd punt, McBriar punts 57 yds and Jackson returns to PHI 16.
Nov 8, 2009 8:32 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Re-taping Andre Gurode's ankle. That would suggest he could return. They need him.
Nov 8, 2009 8:32 PM |
|
derekeagleton Hamlin is in the game, so he must be ok.
Nov 8, 2009 8:32 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis My mistake, it's Gurode's right knee. They're putting his brace back on now.
Nov 8, 2009 8:33 PM |
|
derekeagleton 2 runs by Weaver create 3rd & 2 at PHI 24.
Nov 8, 2009 8:34 PM |
|
derekeagleton PHI is 1 for 5 on 3rd downs.
Nov 8, 2009 8:35 PM |
|
derekeagleton Incomplete pass to Avant on in route. Pass interference on Ball give PHI the automatic 1st down at PHI 29.
Nov 8, 2009 8:35 PM |
|
derekeagleton Wildcat run by Vick for 2 yds.
Nov 8, 2009 8:36 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Philly's getting some good work out of Mike Vick huh? Haven't seen him get more than two yards all year.
Nov 8, 2009 8:36 PM |
|
derekeagleton Incomplete pass to McCoy in flat brings up 3rd & 8.
Nov 8, 2009 8:36 PM |
|
derekeagleton Celek catches 8 yd pass for 1st down.
Nov 8, 2009 8:38 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis So the back to back third down conversions are Philly's first of the game.
Nov 8, 2009 8:38 PM |
|
derekeagleton McCoy picks up 14 yds on counter. PHI into DAL territory to 47.
Nov 8, 2009 8:39 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Newman checks out.
Nov 8, 2009 8:39 PM |
|
derekeagleton Another 1st down by McCoy run.
Nov 8, 2009 8:40 PM |
|
derekeagleton 2 yd pass to McCoy and 4 yd run by Weaver bring up 3rd & 4 at DAL 31.
Nov 8, 2009 8:41 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Eagles have had possession over six minutes now.
Nov 8, 2009 8:41 PM |
|
derekeagleton PHI is 2 for 6 on 3rd downs.
Nov 8, 2009 8:42 PM |
|
derekeagleton That's the 2 minute warning. PHI driving 3rd & 4 at DAL 31. DAL 7 PHI 3.
Nov 8, 2009 8:42 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis RT @jen23il I like Gurode with one good ankle vs. Proctor with 2 good legs.
Nov 8, 2009 8:43 PM |
|
derekeagleton McCoy dropped by Bowen for 1 yd. 4th & 3 at DAL 30.
Nov 8, 2009 8:45 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Wade let a lot of time run off the clock before calling that timeout. At least 12-13 seconds. Might end up needing it.
Nov 8, 2009 8:45 PM |
|
derekeagleton DAL calls a timeout after allowing about 12 seconds to run off clock.
Nov 8, 2009 8:46 PM |
|
derekeagleton Akers makes the 48 yd field goal. 12 plays, 54 yards, drive time 6:04. 1:38 left in half, DAL 7 PHI 6.
Nov 8, 2009 8:48 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Never got a good replay of the interference on Ball. That got Philly started on their scoring drive.
Nov 8, 2009 8:48 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Gurode will be back in.
Nov 8, 2009 8:49 PM |
|
derekeagleton Gurode returns to the game. DAL takes possession at their 19.
Nov 8, 2009 8:49 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Philly brought the blitz off the slot and left Crayton wide open.
Nov 8, 2009 8:51 PM |
|
derekeagleton PHI blitzes and Romo throws hot to Crayton up seam for 64 yds to PHI 17.
Nov 8, 2009 8:51 PM |
|
derekeagleton Romo gets sacked for 4 yd loss.
Nov 8, 2009 8:52 PM |
|
derekeagleton Incomplete pass to Austin in end zone.
Nov 8, 2009 8:53 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis @KOforPrez that one too.
Nov 8, 2009 8:54 PM |
|
derekeagleton WR screen to Ogletree picks up 1st down and gets to PHI 4.
Nov 8, 2009 8:54 PM |
|
derekeagleton Incomplete pass to Williams in end zone on slant.
Nov 8, 2009 8:55 PM |
|
derekeagleton Another incompletion on slant to Roy...looked like pass interference on Samuel.
Nov 8, 2009 8:57 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Ohhh Romo had Witten wide open... That looked like the Falcons game, Romo just didn't find the open guy.
Nov 8, 2009 8:57 PM |
|
derekeagleton Incomplete pass on 3rd down thrown to Barber. Witten was wide open in the right corner of the end zone but Romo didn't see him.
Nov 8, 2009 8:57 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Would've been huge for the Cowboys to get seven points down there. Those four extra points could end up being the difference.
Nov 8, 2009 8:58 PM |
|
derekeagleton 22 yd field goal by Folk is good. 9 plays, 77 yds, 1:31 drive time. :04 remaining in half. DAL 10 PHI 6.
Nov 8, 2009 8:59 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Felix isn't quite right @smann1050 Joe D has done a great job but kick-off return has seemed to struggle. thoughts?
Nov 8, 2009 8:59 PM |
|
derekeagleton Halftime.
Nov 8, 2009 8:59 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Cowboys won the toss... Wade won't say why he changed it. RT @PC_ROB Who won the coin toss? Phillips doesn't defer anymore, Why the change?
Nov 8, 2009 9:02 PM |
|
derekeagleton Dallas defense has played well in 1st half allowing 70 yds rushing & 70 yds passing (no TDs). Cowboys offense near 200 yds in 1st half.
Nov 8, 2009 9:04 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis So DeSean Jackson shut out in the first half... Lotta folks worried about what he and Maclin could do against this secondary...
Nov 8, 2009 9:12 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Of course, McNabb hasn't had a lot of time to let things develop downfield.
Nov 8, 2009 9:12 PM |
|
derekeagleton Eagles return opening kickoff for TD but negated by holding call. PHI takes possession at PHI 23.
Nov 8, 2009 9:15 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Looked like it was Deon Anderson who Fokou held.
Nov 8, 2009 9:15 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Jenkins is out, looks like he hurt his wrist.
Nov 8, 2009 9:16 PM |
|
derekeagleton PHI first down on pass. Jenkins is hurt on the play.
Nov 8, 2009 9:17 PM |
|
derekeagleton McCoy picks up 45 on pass to DAL 15. Spencer almost had the sack (seen that before)...
Nov 8, 2009 9:18 PM |
|
derekeagleton TD pass to Celek. Wade challenges the play saying that McNabb was beyond the line of scrimmage. Both feet must be beyond to overturn.
Nov 8, 2009 9:21 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis The rule, I believe, is that your whole body has to be across the line to overturn it. Don't think this one is coming back.
Nov 8, 2009 9:21 PM |
|
derekeagleton The ruling is confirmed...TD stands. 6 plays, 77 yards, 3:04 drive time. 11:48 left in 3rd: DAL 10 PHI 13.
Nov 8, 2009 9:26 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Anthony Spencer and Bobby Carpenter were both within about arm's length of McNabb and couldn't make a play.
Nov 8, 2009 9:26 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Their draw play finally worked.
Nov 8, 2009 9:27 PM |
|
derekeagleton Illegal celebration by Celek gives DAL 15 yds on kickoff allowing Felix to get to the DAL 34.
Nov 8, 2009 9:27 PM |
|
derekeagleton Barber runs for 8 to DAL 38.
Nov 8, 2009 9:28 PM |
|
derekeagleton 3rd & 1 after 1 yd gain by Barber.
Nov 8, 2009 9:28 PM |
|
derekeagleton Barber gets the 1st down on 3 yd gain. Ball at DAL 47.
Nov 8, 2009 9:29 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Biiiiig penalty against Samuel there. Neither the Cowboys nor the Eagles can afford to give up free yardage.
Nov 8, 2009 9:30 PM |
|
derekeagleton Pass to Barber in flat for 5 yds. Unsportsmanlike conduct on Samuel gives DAL 15 yd penalty moving them to PHI 33.
Nov 8, 2009 9:30 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis So Romo's INT free streak is snapped at three and a half games.
Nov 8, 2009 9:31 PM |
|
derekeagleton Romo overthrows Witten & intercepted by Brown. On the return, PHI called for clipping moving them back to their 12.
Nov 8, 2009 9:31 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis There's DeSean Jackson's first catch.
Nov 8, 2009 9:32 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis 123 throws between interceptions for Romo.
Nov 8, 2009 9:33 PM |
|
derekeagleton 20 yd gain by Jackson moves PHI to their own 33.
Nov 8, 2009 9:33 PM |
|
derekeagleton Spencer hits McNabb causing a bad throw for an incompletion on 1st down.
Nov 8, 2009 9:34 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Jenkins is back.
Nov 8, 2009 9:34 PM |
|
derekeagleton 12 men on the field for Dallas giving PHI 5 yds.
Nov 8, 2009 9:35 PM |
|
derekeagleton Run by McCoy for 2 brings up 3rd & 2. PHI is 2 for 7 on 3rd downs.
Nov 8, 2009 9:35 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Correction, 143 throws for Romo between INTs . . . thanks @THunley9
Nov 8, 2009 9:36 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Can't hear the TVs... what are they saying the rule is? Can McCoy lose forward progress b/c of his own momentum?

derekeagleton Throw to McCoy in flat was ruled an inch shy of 1st down. PHI challenges spot saying forward progress had him beyond 1st down before falling
Nov 8, 2009 9:42 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Think the Eagles were given a free yard there.
Nov 8, 2009 9:44 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Woooooow. Can't believe the Eagles gave that one away. No way McNabb gets stopped on a sneak.
Nov 8, 2009 9:45 PM |
|
derekeagleton Play confirmed. 4th & inches.
Nov 8, 2009 9:45 PM |

Nov 8, 2009 9:51 PM |

Nov 8, 2009 9:52 PM |

Nov 8, 2009 9:58 PM |

|

Nov 8, 2009 10:08 PM |

Nov 8, 2009 10:09 PM |

Nov 8, 2009 10:17 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis What did Al Pacino say about football being a game of inches?
Nov 8, 2009 10:20 PM |

Nov 8, 2009 10:22 PM |

Nov 8, 2009 10:22 PM |
|

Nov 8, 2009 10:23 PM |
|
derekeagleton That was a huge stop by the DAL D.
Nov 8, 2009 10:23 PM |

Nov 8, 2009 10:38 PM |
|
DCStarJEllis Not sure I understand Reid kicking the field goal there. First off it was 52 yards. They still have to have a touchdown, and time's a wastin
Nov 8, 2009 10:38 PM |
|
derekeagleton Akers kicks a 52 yd field goal. 8 plays, 30 yards, 3:37 drive time. 4:27 left in game: DAL 20 PHI 16.
Nov 8, 2009 10:39 PM |

Nov 8, 2009 10:40 PM |
