The Dallas Cowboys have finally done it!!! The proverbial monkey (or in this case, King Kong) is off their back!!! The drought is over!!! The Cowboys have won a playoff game, eliminating the Philadelphia Eagles in a 33-14 smackdown!!!
In my head I could only here one thing over and over again: HOW ‘BOUT DEM COWBOYS!!!
Due to this emotional and thrilling win, I have something to say to the Philadelphia Eagles Organization and its fans:
I forgive you! I forgive the humiliating loss last season that knocked us out of the playoffs and am willing to let bygones be bygones.
Much like the week before, the Cowboys outplayed Philly in all phases of the game; effectively beating the E-, A-, and G- out of EAGLES.
Despite winning the coin toss and driving all the way down to Eagle’s territory, the Cowboys were unable to capitalize due to several penalties that backed them all the way out of FG range, a first since the Chargers game.
But Dallas quickly got themselves into a rythm and walked away at halftime with a 27-7 lead; the first Philly TD thanks to Mr. Michael Vick. I can only guess that Dallas’ Doomsday Defense was not expecting any type of throw from the second-string quarterback who was listed as “probable” prior to the game. Vick has always been better known for his happy feet than cannon-like arm.
Donovan McNabb was a twitching and twittering mess, limited to 19 of 37 for 230 yards; favorable stats courtesy of a defense that already knew they had the game in the bag. McNabb was finally able to connect with Desean Jackson (the Twitter-obsessed brat who couldn’t follow through with the whole “sting they ass” threat after last weeks game) for a 4th quarter TD that was more for pride than cause.
The Cowboys finished with 228 yards passing (surprisingly enough Mr. Roy Once [this is the spanish translation of "eleven" and Roy William's jersey number] contributed to these numbers) and 198 rushing, including 148 yards on 16 carries by Feliz Jones.
Now the ‘Boy have a date with the Minnesota Viking next Sunday at noon for the NFC Divisional round of the playoffs. Minnesota’s leaky offensive line, Brett’s forty old legs, and Adrian Peterson await the rendevous. The Girl is not too pretty, but she could be worse.
Around the League:
It was the end of an era when the New England Patriots got the stuffing beat out of them by the Baltimore Ravens. The Patriots, who had dominated the AFC for an entire decade and won 3 Superbowls in four years, were dominated and humiliated at their own home. It was so bad that the New England fans had to resort to booing the Patriots and not the Ravens. Their pass rush was nonexistant and Brady looked like a rookie, intercepted 3 times in the first half.
This was especially heartbreaking for our friend Daronline, who was a staunch supporter and sex-crazed fan of Tom Brady. Everyone please send their love and condolences to our friend in her time of need!
-The Jets upset the Bengals at home 24-14, giving the yummy Mark Sanchez a post-season win in his rookie year. Pete Carroll, you were wrong!!!
-The Cardinals and Packers provided the most thrilling game of the weekend with a good ‘ole fashion shootout; they also set a record for the most points scored in a playoff game. The Cardinals move on to New Orleans after beating the Packers 51-45 in OT with a thrilling interception. Kind of ironic that a game controlled by the offenses was won on a defensive play!
-Next week, Baltimore heads to Indy and the Jets take on the Chargers.
Can hardly wait! Ciao for now XOXO
