Buffalo Bills vs. Dallas Cowboys: Open Game Thread

FINAL SCORE
Game Preview :: Breaking Down the Cowboys :: Blogging the Boys

Update [2007-10-9 1:38:31 by Brian Galliford]: Only the Buffalo Bills. I don't need to recap it here - you all know what happened. It was an absolutely electric evening at The Ralph, and our young, big-hearted team still found a way to cough up the W. It hurts, but please note the lack of the term "let down" - very little about this performance was a let-down. Initial reactions to come ASAP. Thanks also to everyone stopping by this open thread; thanks, also, to the Cowboys fans who stopped by for acknowledging that this Bills team had your number this week. Give the Patriots hell, guys.

This is it. Monday Night Football is approaching, and with it comes the Bills' stiffest challenge to date in the young 2007 season: beat an undefeated Dallas Cowboys team on a national stage. We've analyzed, we've dissected and we've talked a little trash. It's time to put up or shut up for the young Bills, who will don their throwback uniforms and honor Thurman Thomas during tonight's festivities. Regardless of the outcome of the game, it should be a memorable experience.

I am lucky enough to count myself among the 73,000+ people who will be attending the game at Ralph Wilson Stadium this evening, so I'm leaving this thread in the very capable hands of Dock Ellis, who took care of business in last week's Jets game thread. So if you're looking to leave your thoughts on the game, or - better yet - chat with fellow Bills fans during the game, this is the place to do it. So sit back, enjoy your afternoon/evening and GO BILLS!

Have fun

It's probably going to be the rowdiest crowd in a while. Hopefully, the actions of some fans won't prevent night games in the near future...

Please bring us some good luck with you Brian. It would be such an awesome win tonight.

Game

Well, I cannot wait. Although it is hard to give my 100% optimistic effort when all the press clippings and media talk and everything says the Cowboys will win this game and win this game big. All I know is I am going to add all I can to make the stadium as loud as possible and hopefully we can stay in it and have a chance come the 4th quarter. The city, the fans and the organization deserves this game and needs to REPRESENT!

GO BILLS!

Time to MAKE SOME NOISE!

I don't know why, but I'm really confident about this.

It's just a feel.

I have Romo and Barber on my fantasy team, so that might be why, but I really hope not.

The stadium looks great and the crowd sounds totally juiced already. I really hope we come out smoking.

Injury update.

Ellison's starting, and in a move that y'all know I've been pulling for, George Wilson is getting the start at FS. I REALLY look forward to seeing what he can do. He'll be getting some action his way...

by Dock Ellis on Oct 8, 2007 8:16 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

Wilson starting at FS

this really worries me. This guy has ZERO experience and the Cowboys have a stud WR and TE that will work the deep middle. I hope Wilson is up to the challenge because he's going to be tested early and often...

by Kurupt on Oct 8, 2007 8:17 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

Wilson showed tremendous growth...

in his instincts, play-reading, and sheer hitting power and determination in the preseason. I'm talking play that REALLY stood out. The guy will make one mistake tonight. My guess is that he'll more than make up for it. I think that his closing speed will dwarf Leonard's...

Anyways, the rest of the inactives...

JP, Peerless, Ashton, Coy, Jim Leonhard, Denney, S Copeland Bryan and LB Kevin Harrison.

The first six are, of course, injured. As recently as last season, I did not understand the active roster rule. Now, I surely do...

The D has stepped up thus far. The O needs to respond to the intensity the D is playing with. They look a little shaky thus far. Love to see a pump and go, but we gotta get out of our own endzone first....

Split second to late for Schobel.

But a first thrown anyway.

by Dock Ellis on Oct 8, 2007 9:20 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

Better than I thought

Knew the key would be TOs since the O isn't doing anything of substance, but the pass rush and Run D has been much better than I expected. It's going to be a long night if that imbalance persists, but what a start.

And the announcers are horrible.

by Dock Ellis on Oct 8, 2007 10:03 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

Why did we not go for the 4th and 3??

Of course Lindell isn't going to make that. He can't make a big kick to save his life.

If we went for it and didn't get it, those extra 7 yards would have been enough for Dallas to not make that FG.

Oye. After such an inspiring first half by our D, we're only up by one score. We really needed to put points on the board at the end there...

Gotta come out in the 2nd with even more fire.

by Kurupt on Oct 8, 2007 10:05 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

I was wondering the same thing

I just got home from playing softball so I missed what appeared to be a very good first half for the Bills. The first play I saw was the last INT. When that 4th and 3 came up I figured "this is the perfect spot to go for it Lindell isn't the guy I want kicking the big 50+ yard field goals. He doesn't have the kind of leg for the long kicks. Money from inside 40 but 45 out and the accuracy seems to go away with the need for extra distance.

That 4th and 3 was a good chance to really hurt Dallas. Instead we miss the field goal, give up field position and it results in 3 for Dallas.

Frustrating stuff.

Well, I'm just saying...

...we can't ASSUME that about Rian.

And this makes DJs decision to go for it at the end of the game against the Titans last year seem much more justified.

A trial run, if you will.

Play hard, play smart.

by Dock Ellis on Oct 8, 2007 10:09 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

yeah we can

I assume he misses every time he steps on the field. I've never felt so uncomfortable about a player. Even after his good season last year, I was never comfortable. Having him kick a 55 yarder on MNF was about as ridiculous as it gets. I would still have rather gone for it and failed that give them the extra 7 yards with the miss. You don't kick 55 yarders with 50 seconds left in the half.

Wasn't it windier than Chicago last year against Tenn.?

by Kurupt on Oct 8, 2007 10:15 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs

Can't help but be impressed

The D has been solid. You have to expect that Romo will connect with Witten and TO from time to time, but 4 INTs? Ridiculous. And they haven't been fluky - there has been pressure in Romo's face all night.

On offense, to be honest, it's about as good as you could expect. I still maintain you either go for it there or punt it because missing the FG gives the Cowboys an additional 8 yards of field position (and a 53 yarder is obviously not an automatic), but I'll take 17-10.

by thetaxman on Oct 8, 2007 10:09 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

Impressed with the D

but the O hasn't really put it together yet. We've moved it but haven't even attempted a deep throw or gotten the running game going. Basically, we need to start putting some points on the board with our O.

Let's keep up the pressure D and hope Romo keeps making mistakes...

by Kurupt on Oct 8, 2007 10:17 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs

Jauron really blew the last 2 minutes

Play calling was questionable. Of course, Dockery made a monumental mistake. But the last thing you wanted was to give Dallas an opportunity to score, and a 54-yard field goal attempt was the worst option to accomplish that task. I probably would have punted, or alternately tried to pick up the first down. Those decisions can be the difference between winning a game you're not expected to win and "being what you are."

Jauron = weakest link

Yup. Some of the strategery from this crew has been questionable this year, from the 3rd down bomb in game 1 followed by the conservative D to this decision. If they lose and the game is close, I will be royally pissed.

He got the first down...

it was 3rd and 2. So it'll be first down but about 10 yards further back from where they spotted the ball.

A pretty obvious challenge nonetheless.

wish our running game could get something going, but it's pretty easy to stop when you know it's going left everytime...

Wow.

Sometimes, you get lucky. 4th down. He was wide open.

by Dock Ellis on Oct 8, 2007 10:42 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

All right, offense.

Again, we need first downs.

ROBERT ROYAL!!!

BIG time catch-and-run!

by Dock Ellis on Oct 8, 2007 10:47 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

yeah ATrain

way to be useful twice tonight! first on the kick return, now on pass protection...

by Kurupt on Oct 8, 2007 10:47 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

Trent is... VERY impressive.

My goodness.

And Roscoe either got a 15-yd face mask, or he got fishhooked. How could they miss that?

Trent's one tough SOB.

by Dock Ellis on Oct 8, 2007 10:50 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

You're right

I dont know how they missed that either.

Horrible call on 3rd and 1 though. What are they thinking?

by thetaxman on Oct 8, 2007 10:51 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs

Terrible...

play call on 3rd and 1

I HATE reverses. ALWAYS.

Oh Well. The defensive, again, got a good blow. Now, for a 3-and-out.

by Dock Ellis on Oct 8, 2007 10:53 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

stupid refs

Roscoe got his facemask grabbed, no call

Romo gets the back of his helmet grabbed...15 yards

by Kurupt on Oct 8, 2007 10:55 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

Big 3rd and short

by Dock Ellis on Oct 8, 2007 10:58 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

Not quite enough pressure.

A first, at our 19.

by Dock Ellis on Oct 8, 2007 10:59 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

End of the third.

All right, now.

Any thoughts?

by Dock Ellis on Oct 8, 2007 11:00 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

3rd and 10 coming up to start the 4thQ

Absolutely have to make a stop here. Triple team Witten if you have to. Just keep them out of the end zone guys....

by Kurupt on Oct 8, 2007 11:01 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

Incomplete!

Nice job, Kiwaukee! Great coverage. FG attempt...good. 24-16!

by Dock Ellis on Oct 8, 2007 11:03 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

One offensive TD.

That's all we need.

by Dock Ellis on Oct 8, 2007 11:04 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

Good protection, again.

We keep needing firsts.

by Dock Ellis on Oct 8, 2007 11:07 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

Bend, but don't break

That's the story now. At the very least, we need a long time consuming drive. Give it to Marshawn, the Dallas D must be getting tired now.

by thetaxman on Oct 8, 2007 11:07 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

Gotta throw it away

That was the one thing I was going to mention before I was concerned about. He's been checking down to his last option a bunch tonight and I was wondering when he was going to forget to throw it away.

by thetaxman on Oct 8, 2007 11:09 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

All right, they got it at their 27.

Defense, you rested enough? Cause, there's this job you gotta do...

by Dock Ellis on Oct 8, 2007 11:11 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

Frick

our O has done nothing tonight. We've moved it a bit, but have only put up the 3 pts.

It would have been nice if we had gone deep at some point this game.

Gotta hope the D makes a play down the stretch. We could really use a 5th INT...

by Kurupt on Oct 8, 2007 11:11 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

From your mouth....

How's THAT for a play. Damn.

by thetaxman on Oct 8, 2007 11:14 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs

atta baby

I didn't mean 5th INT, I meant 1st fumble!

PUT SOME DAMN POINTS ON THE BOARD, PLEASE!!!!

Por favor..

HORSE COLLAR!!!

Blind Zebras

Seriously, could these officials be any worse? Missed the horse collar AND the helmet to helmet? I hate Roy Williams.

by thetaxman on Oct 8, 2007 11:18 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

Tough catch by Reed.

by Dock Ellis on Oct 8, 2007 11:19 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

that should have been 3 15 yard penaltes

15 yard facemask
horse collar
late hit

Roy Williams is the DUMBEST football player I've ever watched.

damn refs are killing us this half

looks like they may have given Reed a gift first down though

Tipped, and intercepted.

Almost a successful strip by Evans.

Damn it.

This is where the toughness comes in.

They still got their rest.

That game was unreal. I don't think I'll speak a word at work tomorrow. I'm too stunned to do anything right now.

Great game guys

I expected to come in here hat in hand after talking a little smack early in the week, and accepting my medicine.

I will take credit for telling you all that Nick Folk has ice water in his veins, and that time out on his first try was total B.S. and there needs to be a rule preventing that nonsense, but the kid proved what I said about him.

Anyhow, The Bills certainly played a GREAT game tonight. Would have been enough to beat most any other team.

by FunCowboysFan on Oct 9, 2007 12:04 AM EDT reply actions 0 recs

Bills played great

you guys should be proud, you made one of the best qbs in the league look like Rex Grossman, I tip my hat to you all.

Great job!! We certainly didn't deserve to win and you guys did.

AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN COUNT?

Why doesn't anyone complain about the clock!?!?!?

The onside kick took 6 seconds!!!!!! The ref only took 2 seconds off the clock!!!!!

Cowboys should never been able to kick the field goal with 2 seconds left. It was actually -4 seconds.

Someone needs to fire your coach for not potesting right after 2 seconds were taken off the clock.

Also, you should fire #20 (I think it was) for not even trying to recover the onside kick. The cowboys guy dived on the ball and the bills guy just stood and watched. Watch the last 20 seconds of the game again. You will see what I mean on both points.

Cowboys won the game with negative :04 seconds on the clock. Am I wrong that the clock should start on the kick and not when the ball is touched?

I'm not a Bills fan but I hate it when the refs are directly responsible for a loss.

Timing in Final Two Minutes of Each Half

http://www.nfl.com/rulebook/timingfinal

On kickoff, clock does not start until the ball has been legally touched by player of either team in the field of play. (In all other cases, clock starts with kickoff.)
