    my guess is the grass has to do with the teams they play, not the surface.

    Yes and no..... you generally set up your team to the surface they typically play on.  You play in a dome or in LA, you typically build around speed.  Grass, a little heavier and more physical.  I understand it's stereotypical to some degree and there are outliers but the stereotype exists for a reason.

    I hated not taking the penalty..... WTF, Thumb?

  2. Seattle isn't the best matchup for us.  They love to run the ball between the tackles, they have a big physical WR and elusive slot guy putting stress on our weakest secondary position.  They're desperate too as this may be their season on the line.   I still like Dallas but this may be a bit more difficult then some of our other home games.  Really it depends do we get bad Geno or good Geno.  He's so streaky and unpredicatable.  Let's go win this!!!!

    And how much of that was Dallas playing a lot of zone and Bkand was the nearest defender???? Because that happened a lot.  

    Yea, that's fair.  So the 9-12 was a blogging the boys analyst.  I went back and watched it and in the time it mattered, I saw 8-11 (overall) with 5 first downs let up specifically in man.  2 of those put them in scoring position.  One of those drives they would go on to score a TD where Samuel caught a slant in front of him which got down to the 1 yard line.  Now that was a zone concept (looked like a zone blitz with DLaw in coverage) so it counts against him but I didn't count as giving up a first down although that's being lenient.  Again, two things can be true.  First, overall he's playing great and has great ball skills and two, Thursday wasn't his cleanest game.  I'll take a blowout win over Washington anytime for Thanksgiving but just something to watch as we start to play better teams the next 5 weeks.

    Worthy made that way harder than it needed to be,  more worried about the TD than catching the ball.

    He's not a smart player.  He just didn't know where he was on the field.  Not a great ball but definitely good enough to get the TD.
