Terrible call by Smith.

If they kick it deep they win the game easily.

I never understand that move it isn't like Hester is back there for Atlanta.

What it is the % of KO returns anyways? I would have to think it is something like 5%.

It has to be much more likely that a team is going to complete a 30 yard pass then run back a 100 yd kick return.

I'm going to be absolutely pissed if the Eagles let this one slip away.

Why are they reviewing the FG? The announcers are saying it's a non-reviewable call.

Broncos suck.

The karma for the Hochuli call came around today. Bigtime.

Sometime coaches will learn that that late timeout is a bad call.

Oooh, Cowboys tied the game.

Cards shouldn't have tried to ice the kicker.

What a finish in Arizona. Cards block the punt and recover in the endzone to win! Eagles win, Redskins and Cowboys lose...it's a great day for football!

Eagles still need to get their offense and special teams on track. The defense bailed them out big time today.

I'm starting to think the NFC east isn't as great as everyone says.

Not saying it sucks, don't get me wrong....but how does Washington get wins in Dallas and Philadelphia and then come home and lose to one the 3 worst teams in the NFL?

Dallas, frankly, doesn't look like the best team in the NFL or anywhere close to it.

I think it's a strong division, but I'm no longer convinced there are 3 playoff teams in it.

I'm starting to agree with that. Washington is hard to judge because it's common for lots of teams to have letdown games after big wins. The Eagles have yet to prove they can hang with the big boys. The media loves the Cowboys but I won't consider them a contender until Romo can reduce his turnovers. New York, however, is the best team in the league right now.

The thing about the NFC East is, which division would you say is better? I'd say we're seeing more parity in the NFL this year than we have in any previous years.

Chargers beat the Patriots 30-10. Chargers go to 3-3, Patriots drop to 3-2.

There is more wrong with the Pats than just missing Brady.

I hope it continues next week.

Since the Broncos decided to give the Jaguars a victory yesterday that Monday night throw-away game in Foxboro looks awfully important now for Denver.

Tony Romo out for four weeks with a broken finger.

I think Brad Johnson is probably one of the best backups in the league, so this may not have a huge effect on them.

Agreed..and it may even help them in the short term. Romo was getting way to loosey-goosey with the football the last month or so, and there is no need for it with that O line and those RB's along with Owens and creighton on the outside.

Johnson is a local guy (from here I mean) whom I have met a couple times and he is a solid individual, and a heck of a smart guy. he is not very mobile, but with that team he shouldnt have to be if things are schemed properly for his talents. This is Wade Philips make or break month as far as his future with Dallas goes though, no question.

Cassell is getting sacked on average once every seven times he drops back... horrifying.
