Well unlike the Titans game, they don't immediately lose if they don't get it. They still needed one more TD and could go for 2 to tie. If they convert on the first one then they don't have to make the Chargers/Titans decision because they already got the 2.

Witten continuing to whine about the two-point conversion attempt after the Giants just pissed the clock away once again reinforces this is the worst commentary team ever.

The second Julio Jones got enough yards to secure my fantasy football loss, I never turned back to the game. And I am glad.

I was the opposite. If Shepard catches the last TD instead of OBJ, I lose.

Someone is going to trade for David Carr and be very happy that they did. I am big believer that if you get him in the right scheme with a motivated front office and coaches that know what they want to do with him he will thrive.

That's nothing against the Raiders either, I just think they want to go a different direction.

The Broncos are intent on giving Chad Kelly a chance.

But I suppose if Kelly is a flop the second half of the season and the Broncos are picking in the middle third of the first that could be a good trade for both sides. We will have to see who they hire to replace Vance Joseph. I think one of these innovating offensive coordinators could do a lot of good things with Derek Carr.

Mr. irrelevant does not get a chance other than a cup of tea. He has to be great or he will be drafted over.

You are being generous. My god is that unlistenable... they think they are providing insight too which makes it REALLY scary. I started just putting this on and muting the feed.

Looks like Osweiler getting the start for the third week. Bortles may be out too -- we'll see.

Seeing Amari in a Dallas uniform is nothing like seeing Mack in Bears blue/orange. Unless he blows up...

Now, why is the fucking NFL tweeting a picture of Cooper in a #89 jersey when the Cowboys already have a TE wearing that number?

https://www.bloggingtheboys.com/2018/10 ... -number-88

Should new Cowboys receiver Amari Cooper wear number 88?

It’s a special number, but is he a special player?

The Dallas Cowboys have themselves a number one receiver. After agreeing to give a 2019 first-round draft pick to the Oakland Raiders, fourth-year pass catcher Amari Cooper is coming to Dallas. The former Alabama star was fast out of the gate, eclipsing the 1,000 yards mark in each of his first two seasons. He’s going to give this team a much needed boost at the wide receiver position after the current receiving group experiment has been rather underwhelming. Cooper is a talented player at a position of need for the Cowboys so it’s a perfect fit. Welcome to Dallas, no. 89.

89? Wait, Cowboys tight end Blake Jarwin actually wears 89. Is it possible Cooper will offer Jarwin some type of monetary compensation so he can keep his original number? That’s a pretty common occurrence whenever a star player joins another team where another player already has that number.

Or maybe Cooper will opt to make a change and go with something else? Allen Hurns wore 88 while in Jacksonville, but chose the number 17 when he came to Dallas. After the release of Dez Bryant, the number 88 was available, but Hurns chose his new number as a tribute to others and stuck with it.

Typically, the number 88 is sacred. Only special wide receivers don that number in Dallas. That’s not a hard rule or anything, but it’s sorta an unwritten understanding. Super Bowl champion Drew Pearson wore it. Three-time Super Bowl Champ and Hall of Famer Michael Irvin wore it. And of course, the Cowboys all-time leader in touchdown catches, Dez Bryant, also wore it. Like I said, it’s reserved for special players.

But is Amari Cooper a special player? He was taken fourth overall in the 2015 NFL Draft so he was thought to be pretty special a few years ago. When Michael Irvin was taken 11th overall in the 1988 Draft, expectations were high for the Miami star receiver. The same can be said for Dez Bryant when the Cowboys moved up to pick 24 to select him in 2010. But aren’t expectations pretty high for Cooper as well? Dallas gave up some hefty draft capital to acquire Cooper. And when you take into account how well the Cowboys have been drafting in the first round, that’s a testament to how much they covet a talent like Cooper.

Do they have the cap room to make it work even if they restructured Bouye's contract?

David Carr is Blake Bortles with 4-5 less interceptions every year.

Carr is an NFL starting QB and Bortles isn't.

Agreed. Carr isn't good but he's not bottom of the league bad like Bortles.
