The Dallas Cowboys Spent Their Bye Week, TWO WEEKS AGO, Preparing For The Eagles On Thanksgiving

LVL – Since beating the Tennessee Titans this past Sunday, the Eagles have maintained that they did not start worrying about the Dallas Cowboys and their Thanksgiving matchup until after the game was over. The Cowboys? They sound like they might be a little bit more prepared. “We prepared during our bye week for Philadelphia,” Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said to USA Today, “so we’ve got some hay in the barn.” Both the Eagles and the Cowboys face a short turnaround for this Thursday’s game, with the Cowboys facing an even shorter time frame due to their Sunday night game against the New York Giants. When asked on Monday about whether if he has spent anytime prior to this week preparing for the Cowboys, head coach Chip Kelly seemed confused at the idea of doing so.”Our bye week a few weeks ago?,” Kelly said. “Zero. We weren’t playing Dallas after the bye.”

Love it. Absolutely love it. The amount of real estate the Eagles own in that Sith Lord’s head would make Donald Trump envious. I’d venture to say this wasn’t Jason Garrett’s idea. That old bag of plantation owning bones just doing his thing to ruin another promising Cowboys season. First he’s ordering a limp Tony Romo to be put back in the game, now he’s calling the shots in practice, come December he’ll put on the pads himself. NOBODY overlooks games in the NFL in this day and age. This is the big leagues. Any team is capable of beating any other team on any given day. That’s the way it works, and it almost cost the Cowboys dearly. And I’m not too sure if this is a compliment to the Eagles or a total tap in the dick to the Giants. Possibly both.

For as much as I despise Jerry Jones, he does provide some solid quips. “We’ve got some hay in the barn.” Not even sure what that fucking means but it sounds awesome. I WANT ME SOME GLORY HOLE.
