For as much disdain I have for the Ryan coaching clan, kudos to Cowboy’s DC Ryan for writing (what it looked like to me in that split second) “Get Well Soon Pags”. Nice shoutout for Chuck Pagano.

Were those giant PSY heads I saw in the endzone stands on that field goal? Interesting.

Don’t you guys get it? Cutler is like the Outlaw Josie Whales. :smack:

Good drive by the Bears but it sputtered out at the Cowboys 30. FG is good.

Romo to Tillman … Touchdown. Nice pass, right between the numbers and gave him plenty of room to run. Great job Tony!

Romo had a nice drive at the end of the half with a TD to Miles (In Canada they call him Kilometers, thank you thank you. I stole that joke). Cutler came out chucking the ball in the 2nd half ending in a long TD strike to Hester.

Bears 17 Cowboys 7

Why do I picture the Bears as Blanche Dubois saying “I rely on the incompetence of strangers” this game?

Holy cow.

Romo throws an INT, Cutler gives the ball right back to the Cowboys then Henry Melton forces an INT to Lance Briggs who takes it right through the Dallas line and all the way to the endzone for a TD. The Bears D is playing hard and making plays (is that too cliche?).

Bears 24 Cowboys 7

I’ve long felt Gruden was holding out fo thr Giants job, but Coughlin keeps winning Superbowls.
