Nowhere near the experience Green Bay has. Green Bay is probably one of the top teams with inclement weather experience.

Pats would be #1 though because Boston can be a cold shit hole

The cowboys share their division with Philadelphia and New York, they have more than a fair bit of experience playing in inclement weather.

Green Bay gets colder on another level than Philly and New York ( I live near Philly, winters are bad but nowhere near as much as GB'S).

I don't see how Patriots weren't in top 5 worst. No idea why Buffalo is #1. I can see it 4 or 5. As for best it's pretty obvious cali and florida teams made it on there

Everyone get ready to see the Cowboys upset Greenbay.

You still up for that bet? haha

pretty good game atm, I think Aaron Rodgers is doing alright

edit: ohmygod that dez bryant catch call was a killer

Let's hear the super bowl predictions tonight.

That was a catch, he had complete possession. The ball only got knocked out when he reached for the pylon, and it then got knocked out by the ground.

 

Yeah idk the explanation was sorta sketch, and if you say it doesnt matter how many steps he took before he hit the ground/ the ball came loose, then does that mean that someone can run down the field after catching a pass, trip and fall, and have it ruled an incomplete pass when the ball hits the ground and comes loose?

Either way, I cant wait for GB @ Seattle, hopefully rodgers is healthier then

When the ground knocks the ball loose, that can not be ruled a fumble, it's every similar

I really don't like that call, but I guess it's ref karma.

Green bay v new england, im callin it

Actually by rule it wasn't a catch you have to maintain possession all the way through the catch and when the ground knocked it lose it doesn't count as complete the catch. I was banking on the Cowboys winning so I am not some basis fan. But the right call was made.

In my opinion, he did make a complete catch, with 100% possession. Then he reached for the pylon, and the ball was knocked loose.

Feel very bad for the Cowboys. Literally looked like Dez Bryant was about to cry.

Call him what you will off the field, but he's a competitor. Say what you will about the Detroit game, but Dallas wholly outplayed Green Bay today in my opinion.

Tough pill to swallow for Cowboys fans, I feel bad for them.

Look at the rules very carefully and than watch the replay. He didn't complete the entire catch all the way through. That's how they changed the rules a few years ago. He has to maintain it and he didn't.

 

people r retarded, 3 steps isnt a football move while extending for the goal line.

Exactly. Even though Rodgers was hurt, you have to give credit to the Cowboys for playing a phenomenal game against a phenomenal team. That DeMarco Murray fumble when he had a wide open field in front of him hurt to watch though.

 

[I Bleed Duke Blue]

I think it was a catch tbh.

Looked more like a mini fumble to me...but whatever, it's over. It's done. Unfortunately the Cowboys will have to regroup for next year, I hope Dez Bryant returns.

 

[Lorenzo]

Bleed the wide receivers don't have the same rules as a back. They have to maintain possession and he didn't do it.
