2015 Week 12 - Panthers @ Cowboys

of the National Football League back in Texas where the Cowboys are hosting on Thanksgiving Day for the 48th time this games being broadcast in Spanish were available using the sa P button on your television Jeannot puts it on a tee Whitehead is back deep for the Cowboys and the Cowboys at three and seven they have no margin for error from this point forward if yes me Jim I think they got to run the table to get a chance to get to the playoffs they believe they can do it stick to the board awful good football team to playing against today Romo will come out to the 20 he is the man who not only is the one that's really touting this stretch that they could have ahead the players believe it I'm he's filled with optimism of course he won the first two games of the season got injured in that second one they didn't win a one when he was out for those seven weeks come back last week they win again Tyron Smith very impressive Dallas line Witten six catches away from a thousand on his career but this is the healthiest Dallas has been at any point this season starting this one today McFadden's the running back for a pickup of four tackled by Charles Johnson who just rejoined the lineup after being on an IR designated to return Jared Allen they acquired him first month into the season the trade with the Bears Kuechly former defender of the year this is the defense this kid Norman he's sensational he'll see a lot you got to think of Des Alliance today but they gave up only 14 yards rushing to the Redskins last Sunday and that's an all-time mark by the Panthers defense in their franchise history on second and six robo-one for a deep ball here and it is in and out of the hands and broken up there by Roman Harper along with Josh Norman Dez Bryant for a moment I thought he might come away with it yeah good timing that time by Josh Norman you watch it the last second he turns around and sees the football that is played perfectly and we talked to Josh Norman last night loves the fact that he gets the goal against the other team's best receiver really looking forward to going against Dez Bryant an excellent start and a confidence builder for corner who plays a lot of man-to-man coverage says it inspires me facing the best wide receiver on the other team has got four picks and he's run two of them back year third and six picked off it's intercepted by Kirk Coleman and Cartman breaks the tackle he's at the ten gets around wetland he's gonna find the endzone Carolina 59 seconds into the game is on the board [Applause] they are great this Carolina defense linebackers and defensive backs they read the quarterback look at Kurt Coleman Tony Romo didn't look far enough in front of the receiver and you saw him how about that he was just sitting there and preying on Tony Romo when he threw it he made to cut the interception and a very good one back Hallman Smith Pick of the Year 45 yard return them and the Panthers defense comes right out and makes a statement here on Romo and the Cowboys you know with the extra point out of a hole by Norton eh-eh Jansen is the that's seven points start here for Carolina third play of the game Coleman the safety takes it back for the score never miss a moment the football action with the CBS sports app every play and score every game every highlight right as they happen download the CBS sports app now CBS sports.com slash mobile we were here two years ago on Thanksgiving and the Raiders worthy opponent the Raiders scored a touchdown actually on a fumble return on the opening kickoff down seven on them on that day before the Cowboys controlled it the rest of the way that day now what happened here fill couple things I think Tony Romo's think he thinks the safeties are going to do that but watch Kurt Coleman he stays inside Tony Romo doesn't read it right he's watching the quarterback cuts across and makes the interception so they're very good at disguising defenses they read the quarterback why Tim because they know their pass rush it's good and the quarterback doesn't have all day to throw the football 97 takeaway points now with the top takeaway margin in the league the Panthers what could keep Lee kum up by the way did you notice on that touchdown return as Dez Bryant and Josh Norman here they are on the near side 40 now the returns happening and these two are having a little chat establishing parameters for the rest of this game but here's the here's the run back there they will watch it I'm laughing but I'm not because it Dez Bryant would it took off the run was going to come back right his way he could have maybe made a tackle inside the 10 10 yard line on that interception second and 14 fake to mechanic Whitten within two of a first that's a gain of twelve having a pass like that one back on your early what does it do TIA well I don't care who you are can shake your confidence a little bit that's why they came out there Jim and you move Tony Romo to make the decision easier so he can find a passing lane and give himself into this football game so there's no doubt he admitted it I watched see ii watched it a lot of rust on his game after seven weeks off but he did get sharper ashley as the game went on third and two now was intended for Terrence Williams and the Panthers defense takes him right off the field after three plays been Wickery people keep asking me are the Panthers for real look you can't get lucky in the NFL and go ten and oh you might get lucky and win a game or two the defense when you watch it it has depth they play a lot of players and really no true weakness on any level as you watch them play Ted Ginn jr. back at the 25 waiting for Chris Jones he's had a good solid year in the running of the Cowboys especially he's gonna earn himself a fair catch at the other end 50-yard booth will see Cam Newton he is out there chest-bumping Curt Coleman after the touchdown he comes on to the field with a seven point lead Haley at Fort Worth Christian they're getting ready for their state semifinal game Saturday against Grapevine faith Christian good luck to both teams all right here's Cam Newton right in the heart of the MVP discussion coming off his personal best five touchdown performance just last week with a double tight end set they'll go your Johnathan Stewart and that's Keith who comes up to hit him first but it picks up five an offensive line and clues Michael or protecting Cam Newton's blindside Johnathan Stewart by the way a hundred and two yards against the Redskins last week in what was his 100th career start and his 13th career hundred yard performance he's had a good season second and five here for Carolina they bring Olson into the backfield [Applause] man keeps it charlie has hope the Dallas defense would shut out Miami in the second half on Sunday he got Greg Hardy going against his former team they got Rolando McClain who had a pick six in the win against the Dolphins and Byron Jones their first-round pick I want to find he was at a UConn mo if you say a first rounders are fine but they are absolutely a static about the Wookiees play this year Jericho cotchery comes in as the third receiver on third and five [Applause] it's Cotchery at midfield or they protected him and just before the Cowboys were finally closing in on him he unloaded it for 24 this says it all about Cam Newton look he looks right doesn't like it turns back and sees country coming across the field everybody says oh he's a quarterback that likes to run no he is a pocket passing quarterback who only runs when there's no other option given the country get certain gave him a big completion he got hit after he threw it by the rookie Randy Gregory but here he is on first down from the Dallas 49 token is Olson and he's got a gain of 7 how about all this talk and certainly deserving of it in the MVP chatter about Cam Newton the offense fits him perfectly he deserves to be in the chatter about the MVP still a long way to go but we've seen what illustrates this offense already they got a powerful offensive line they are tough they do a they have a complicated running game and they got a quarterback that's willing and can stand in the pocket and let people get deep down the field to make the throws [Applause] picks up the first down Jonathan Stewart coupla Cowboys come crashing in there but it's another 7 yard game well there's so many good linemen when you talk about one twine Khalil the sinner little unbalanced in line there gets a good block they couldn't get off Rolando McClain tries to get away from the center can't do it Stewart picks up good yards there's only so much you can do on defense gym because of the one game in a mobile quarterback you have to try to keep your eyes on tan movement he's got a first down after 35 Stewart with some opening room for four again Shawn Lee on the tackle this holiday night on CBS catch Holmes and Watson that they're very pests don't miss a new episode of Elementary tonight at 10:00 9:00 central only CBS talked about what you're limited on deep the defensive side I think if you're the Carolina Panthers Greg Hardy number 76 very good pass rusher for the Dallas Cowboys plays all four positions on the defensive line you have to be alert where he is at at all times second and six a little bit maybe too hot and high for Olson and had some steam on it I will say this and you know everything Cam Newton will miss some of these throws today where guys get open because he closed it so hard and it will get away from him high but the one thing is Jim if you have a chance to catch it even the cause he throws it so hard you can see the rotation if you get your hands on it it'll stick to those drugs second third down the Panthers have faced on their first offensive possession two on the play clock and Newton takes the snap from the 31 it's off the hands of Jonathan Stewart and will see a long field goal attempt coming up from gun oh well kind of hard to what I thought for sure Kim mood was going to call a timeout didn't seem really convinced and what he was trying to do he does so much work at the line of scrimmage and he couldn't figure out what to call what play to go with and the Dallas Cowboys defense give them credit good stand by them there's good know who's made 21 of 25 this year 49 yard attempt and the kick is good Graham Cano the Panthers put up three the first time they touch it I got that interception return in the first minute and it's a 10 nothing lead for the visitors on that to know field-goal Byron Jones just annihilated Godot after the kick but no flag Mike Harry yes well you see the hit is pretty hard but it's affected by the push by the offensive player and once an offensive player pushes someone in to the kicker there will be no foul it was at Dixon well when you run that fast let's be honest he can run fast and you just push them a little bit they're gonna go off course and fly through the air and that's why we saw the contact [Music] you know even getting walloped like that he's fine and he gets the touch back Jim let's just show you how interceptions happen 360 eye vision here look what Tony where he says all jason witten is uncovered and wide open but jason witten is coming right - Kirk Coleman makes the interception easy Cowboys have run six plays here in the first seven minutes have not hooked up a first down [Applause] Jason Garrett the first cowboy player to ever become the Dallas head coach they could get that gain of 20 out of bounds at the 40 [Music] this is what we kind of saw last week from Tony Romo and that's what really propelled until victory couldn't get out of the pocket but somehow looks back side and sees Darren McFadden break away from the pack and he that the thing about it is he can always find the next receiver Tony Romo it's the same system he's been under for many years and he can go from one receive the next as fast as any quarterback and foot back and as the extra tight in on the first down carry straight ahead McFadden pushes the pile for a bound three let's check in Tracy Wolfson Jim Tony Romo is 6 and 2 on Thanksgiving and boy would he like to get a win over the undefeated Panthers to add to the memories he has on this day Jason Garrett telling us it's a privilege to play on this day as for Cam Newton it's his first Thanksgiving game but he said he has dreamed since a kid of playing on this field on this day and he said to now be relevant and do it with something special something meaningful means a whole lot more Jim yeah tam was as eloquent as we've ever found anyone about playing on Thanksgiving Day expressing what it meant and to his brothers Paxton's over to whitehead wide receiver screen picks up a bounty 3 it'll be third down for Dallas well you said he cam mouton a lot of things to talk about port 1 you got to talk about the way he dressed when he came in that was pretty fun not funny but it was he couldn't help but talk about it as sharp as it gets ya had what would you call it sparkling shoes on velvet with some diamond studs Ares y'all been cited third and four see this a lot the Carolina defense they like to get up inside both linebackers Tony Romo knew this was coming and he says I got the answer for these milking linebackers Beasley for the Cowboys to the Carolina 35 a gain of 17 Beasley Cole Beasley on the right side here come the linebackers this time they do blitz really good job picking it up Darren McFadden gets enough of the linebacker to give Tony Romo time this is a matchup the Cowboys must love Colin Jones against Cole Beasley especially with that technique go Beasley runs a lot of inside quick routes you got to get tighter if you want to covering Romo has hit four different receivers but not Dez Bryant at this point and McFadden for a couple next Thursday rivalry matchup between the Packers and the Lions on CBS and an NFL Network and just a reminder in two weeks times the Vikings and the Cardinals that will have all kinds of playoff seeding implications that will be on NFL Network only in two weeks but again Green Bay Detroit CBS and NFL Network a week out and the Lions are going to come into that game having won three straight today absolutely demolishing the Philadelphia Eagles behind Stanford five touchdown passes second and eight and roboam hesitating because nothing's there that now takes off wings pounds was Dez Bryant he clean was the one all the way down there with Dez good job Luke Kuechly seeing Dez Bryant going down the sideline I'm picking him up and he is out of bounds second foot doesn't come down anyway but the big thing was the pass protection this is a very good defensive line Carolina has and the Cowboys offensive line just pushed them all inside game Tony Romo the extra time 22 big play third and eight they failed to pick up any yardage would be a nine a 51-yard field goal attempt looks like its own defense Tony Romo chains to swing wide open the middle field first down the ball comes out when he hits the surface but they rule them down that's Terrence Williams just in case scooping it up but it's a gain of 14 and they'll move the sticks too easy for Tony Romo the defense drops back he knows it's a zone defense he all the way is just looking and just waiting for Darren McFadden to come into his eyesight contact no question it was down that's right Devon Street comes in fourth Atlas is a wideout they load up the left side from the Panthers 14 Dez Bryant for not out there for this play McFadden's securing it with both hands got a yard maybe two tonight a festive night of comedy on CBS Big Bang Theory new episodes of life in pieces mom and two Broke Girls it all starts tonight at 8:00 7:00 central only CBS you know you talk about Tony Romo and it's not just what he does on the field as a player we know that but it's the confidence he gave to his teammates to his coaches to the play designers the coaches now know they can put the whole offense in and they can call it differently because we have so much great room he's got Brian back out there second and nine who's able to stumble ahead as he was tripped up for a moment by Norman and the Cowboys have it inside the 10 first and goal to go on the outside Josh Norman plays it inside what a good throw by Tony Romo low and to the outside to make sure there's no way the defense can jump to throw Wyatt in the air for the intercept Seco Beasley excellent after the catch Cowboys have it just inside the eight [Applause] right into the arms of Jared Allen boy Jason Garrett talking to his team about do you believe in me gave this great analogy about a Michael Jordan story late in his career as an example of how the story ended with him telling his team how much he believed in them that's right Michael Jordan was told by Doug Collins you can still do it and that's what he basically said till his football team I believe in you we can still do this and I think of course the players believe in themselves he said stay aggressive stay downhill and complete that was Thomas Davis and some folks here were begging for a flag but they're not going to get it well they want it with Luke Kuechly against Jason Witten Jason Witten is going to come open for the touchdown number 82 coming in the bottom of our screen watch defeat whoa okay Luke Kuechly it could have been an accidental tripping but bucks he looks like he stuck his right foot out well look at this one this is what the crowd is howling about he's definitely Davis was there before the ball arrived Mike Geary out of her pass interference on that one got there a little bit too quick 12th and a friend should have been called while play of the drive and it's a burden on the ground and has the ball broken up then Wickery I want to denied it the throw if it's on target it might get there but Kony Ealy number 94 hits Tony Romo again coming inside they love these type of routes boy been Wickery almost took it out of his hands and ran it back again Tony Romo kind of didn't step into the throw the way he wanted to do it just behind Beasley before maybe getting in the end zone you ready for this they call that a catch and said Beasley was down caught it was on his knees it was contact even though the ball came out later they ruled him down so it goes as a catch still ends up being a Punnett a field goal situation from 21 out and take as good a call that a catch it never even occurred to me that it was at AT&T Stadium with the legends culinary team cooking up all kinds of Thanksgiving favorites dropped off a little here in the back of the booth which we greatly appreciate yeah you and I enjoyed it and Mike Carey stood back there for about an hour and truly had a Thanksgiving these did took care of it for all of us so the Cowboys get it inside the 10 first and goal to go and have to settle for 3 as Bailey sends it down the way deep 10 3 Panthers minute to go in the first quarter and Happy Thanksgiving you are watching NFL on CBS home of Super Bowl 50 hi I'm Ron Horvath on behalf of my crew and the entire NFL officiating family we'd like to wish you and your families Rondon Torbert and all the crew you know was impressive about that I watched him do it in pregame he did it in one take that's right one take so this is just the second drive for Carolina and changing things up but light clock is running down just got it away in time and it's tipped away by McClain who had designs on getting a pick for the second straight week and 14 straight regular season wins for this franchise a member they were three eight and one last year when they lost at Minnesota one out one the division won their first game in the wild-card round before getting knocked out divisional round at Seattle second and ten Stewart nowhere to go Ron Rivera in his fifth year and well on his way to winning this NFC South Division for the third straight year his 75th game as the head coach at Carolina what a job he's done what a job patience by the owner at the organization gave him the chance didn't have to worry about his job and now they have constructed a football team exactly the way he wants it big and physical and offense that can run with power and close it down the field third and 10 for his Panthers back off the Blitz +3 and - Olsen tiny window and Newton found it for 24 well going down the scene to the left of your screen and there is really no window it's the fact that it got there so quick that branding car nice little double move by Greg Olson branding car is all over but Cam Newton does not hold back when it comes to throw in the football with speed well as a second time on third and long camps complete of the best for 24 yards in the 1 and Carolina is on top 10 - free you're watching the NFL on CBS Carolina Panthers brass you've got the president right there on the front row standing up former ad at TCU Danny Morrison and on the back row Rosalynn and Jerry Richardson the owners and back in 93 when mr. Richardson brought the Panthers into the league he became the first man since George Halas to have played in the NFL I'll overcome another challenge the ruling on the field on the previous play of a completed catch will review the play kind out so they're gonna challenge the catch that close out the first quarter for the big game Jason Garrett is burning because they should have never challenged this is a review they're really going to feel that a completed catch that's confirmed Dallas is charged with their first timeout of the half the cockles lard on the snap got some bad info that's for sure from up top and this was the easiest one you'll ever see Mike Carey yeah that was easy and he got in there because even though there was a quarter break it has to have a legal snap before he cannot challenge but boy he'd like to have that one back there was a clear catch well you picked it up to him he was walking up and down the sideline talking to himself because the information he got from above he saw something entirely different than what we saw he reached a whole new shade of red he was part so first play or two taking it to the Dallas 49 gain of seven got to be so careful in this run game you say oh it's gonna be the zone read he's gonna go across the formation but no he cuts it back and look at the block by number 88 Greg Olson you know I kind of was talking about they they should send him out more on passes he's got Shawn Lee good job a seal in it but once you really study this Carolina Panthers offense you realize the value of Greg Olson his blocking in pass and the run and of course going down the field to catch the ball second entry leaves it over to the sideline and that is Funchess and he's got what looks like the first down yeah this guy we talked about power run but they power pass look how long he stands in the pocket doesn't worry about getting hit and rips it down the field so Jim when you say he fires the football I mean it yeah I mean it today that's right not just a cliche that we hear all the time said he learned to throw the football from his father Cecil who actually played safety at the college level at Savannah State and was signed by Gil Brandt that that was Cowboys he went to the camp back in 1983 and was one of the last cuts to the 42 but is probably going to be a whole call against Carolina holding offense in a 50 feather then your penalty replay first foul first penalty is a hold call against Khalil Michael or against Greg Hardy a matchup we want to watch all day long gets around that time to the outside the hold was inside by the center line Khalil but we have not said Greg Hardy's name yet Jim offensive line of Carolina doing a good job course they keep the off balance with all the different ones and the fact you got to be careful because the quarterback to run to his first and 20 and that's two-person Brenton bersin for a gain of 12 and this season of giving we'd like to give thanks to all of you for once again making CBS America's most watched Network Happy Thanksgiving from everyone at CBS well the Dallas defense Jason Garrett all they talked about let's don't turn the football over let's see if this Carolina defense which get our offense gets a lot of really good field position because of the great defense can they drive it the length of the field in school your second and eight and it falls harmlessly to the ground Cowboys though starting to apply a little pressure on Newton here they are I think David Irving that time number 95 it's Cam Newton's arm yes he did party was starting to come around the corner is the football in his hand as he lets the football as he goes forward or was it knocked loose low lead on the field was incomplete now the Cowboys just lost a challenge so they're going to let that one go third and eight coming up that's great delay a game [Applause] blending okay well crowd noise he could see the clock but you know Ryan Khalil is up but the sinner he's trying to figure out who's everybody who everybody's got a block so he can't see the play clock he needs somebody to alerting that it's going down ball spotted back at the 48 third and 13 Newton's had two big past plays on third and long already [Applause] now shake softly hit bye and takes off running within about three of the first did he get deep enough to bring out good know as a 10-yard run or they go for it here they may keep Greg Hardy the almost double team me but he keeps coming with great efforts I was gonna say maybe they would go for it on fourth down here but Ron Rivera likes his defense likes the way the game is going don't give momentum to this cowboy football team that's why he's putting the foot down three options could have gone for it fourth and three could have tried a 56 yard field goal but they're gonna pun it option he's the one that Rivera goes with his breath on the side of the foot I think it was more off the side of the foot that it was a pooch punt but a pooch shank how about that I like a new term boys awfully proud of their art collection something very important to mrs. Jones most recent acquisition that sculpture you saw there from Ellsworth Kelly it's like walking through the sins house and Franklin Lakes New Jersey all that art yes sir I can't disagree Turpin is the running back for the Cowboys and the former Seahawk first a head for about eight now he was cut by Seattle a long time as a long time he's fourth year in the league but he had been backing up for several years Marshawn Lynch Seattle let him go Cleveland picked him up we were with Cleveland earlier this month and he was running third team there they let him go Dallas now finds him in a position to make up the backup shows up on a Wednesday gets to practice we saw him against Miami Jason Garrett lights him because he runs straight ahead good power like that yeah that's a first down even with k1 short on his back [Music] all right next-gen stats are presented by assurance insurance for the modern world to carries by turbine brings the football out to about the 27 Heatley looking across the way the cheap to his right side the other way and it's incomplete still trying to get dez bryant the football for the first time no catches targeted three times well Josh Norman is covering him sometimes in man-to-man coverage we saw this early and what really helps if at some battle is we've talked about a gym right from the start equally and Dave is so fast underneath when crossing wide receivers just like we saw deaths by at that time they're able to get up there and one with them and make Tony Romo throw it away and have a pre snap penalty here on the Cowboys well third offense over 68 five-yard penalty second out there's one other thing when you see this Carolina defense that the Cowboys scored like last week they wore down to Miami defense because of their power doing that but when you talk about Carolina's defense it's so deep especially along the defensive line that it's hard to tear em out because they rotate so much first pedal down the Cowboys basic second at 15 it's Turpan and he's hammered down for one push in the pocket couldn't tell which ones doing it but boy you're talking about some big power up inside low to Lil a is 1k one short and Jared Allen you know we haven't talked about him yet today has done a good job since he's been in Carolina humping against the one game and of course which all Johnson on me when he was injured he came in and did a good job brushing the passer third and long for Romo and the Cowboys the back has 50 down you're good [Applause] even it way down the field and over the head of des Brian who actually it was a little bit free in the secondary yes he was tony romo moved up in the pocket the zone kind of broke down but here's what happens when you're moving forward as a quarterback the football is just going to go farther a little in double moved so he ran across the field and was going up and when he steps up he just puts a little too much juice on the football boy des fine if he throws it across the field it's a big play Chris Jones it's recovered up right away anyway by the Carolina Panthers not sure looked like Jim that had hit a Dallas Cowboy player as Ohio Marlowe you're right it was Dean Marlowe at the back of his leg and he was smart enough to alertly fall on it NFL play 60 the NFL's movement for a more active generation encourage his fans to get moving and play for 60 minutes every day run jump and race to Super Bowl 50 with the free NFL play 60 app download today or learn more at NFL rush dot-com 10 3 Panthers lead it the games only touchdown an interception return by the Panthers Kurt : Charlene read and that's an 11-yard gain therefore Cam Newton [Music] well something they did their gym was interesting look how they stacked the receivers outside there's so few people inside that Cam Newton right away says he doesn't always read it but that time that's why they called to play he read Greg Hardy Greg Hardy Jason running back and he kept the football for a good game and with that run Newton for the season goes over 400 yards rushing she was tied in his favorite target Greg Olson gain of seven yeah this season for cam it has all come together the 20 touchdowns five of them coming just last week against the skins he tied Steve Beuerlein steam record with the five touchdown throws well I'll say this would you look at Cam Newton he's as valuable to this football team as you can imagine and it just goes case in point when you look at quarterback numbers they can live because they lie about him because he's playing a heck of a lot better than some of those numbers say and seconded trade areas even if down the field open target and his Devin Funchess their rookie taken out of Michigan in the second round he just got his first start last week and he's coming on the last three weeks picks up 15 well it looks like a different receiver than the one I saw at the University of Michigan he this looks trimmer looks faster and of course he's just catching on to the pro football game and the Ron Rivera said it Kelvin Benjamin getting hurt has made which he did in preseason his maid Kim meetin look at all the receivers instead of just one or two good throw over the contrary two Cowboys record hold them to a gain of three and this kid Funchess he had seven catches through the first seven games but now including a quarter of action here his last three games in a court is now 211 grabs including a couple of touchdowns yeah he looks the part I'll say that he's tall lean big target to throw to and the course of you have been noticed when you're watching this game today Carolina is basically big at every single position on the football team so thing that kid has size like Calvin Benjamin little lakota having back next year setup screen Stewart which that sideline within a yard or two of the first running behind Norwell whoo man do they work this offensive line watch him pull out nor well he's back this week that a hamstring injury but what a good job get out on Shawn Lee who is fast and hard to hit especially in the open field good job of doing it that time but no well we got a cowboy player down on the Carolina Panthers side of the field the NFL on CBS is sponsored by Bud Light make the right call drink responsibly and buy fallout 4 in stores now rated M for Mature got a third and one coming up here for Carolina DeMarcus Lawrence was the injured cowboy but he got up and was able to jog to the other side of the field to the Dallas bench well big third and one you love your offensive line it's powerful you got a big quarterback there's no reason to think that they would run this football twice if they need to to pick up a first down Tolbert around Cam Newton takes the handle Big Mike Tolbert asked the first down short yardage specialist he could do a whole lot of things one of the unsung heroes on this team former charger yep great hands believe it or not you look at him Don 19 Hamm kind of looks like it but out he knows the situation and just that's the name from way back wasn't it but the Colts but he knew the situation like we said big strong offensive line there was no doubt they'd run the football twice if they had to to get that first day and it's a first down at the Dallas 29 with six minutes to go quarter to [Applause] three Cowboys converge right away including midsi they're in a hurry David Irving as well well this time if they could get outside Tolbert is going to be blocking the linebacker but Mincey did a good job forcing the run back inside nowhere to go good play by the defense and Jeff he helping out as well so Stewart six carries 21 [Music] Fozzy Whittaker now the running back three plays his last we placed three different bats second in 12 image this country takes and he is shoved out of bounds Cam Newton saw that it was man-to-man coverage changed the play had cautery coming across the field boy what a valuable person he has been so far this year illegal said on the offense all 11 players here not sent to a second after the shell at the 5-yard penalty replay second down takes away a 14 yard completion to contrary yeah a big of a big play there the two up top Cam Newton gets the snap they weren't set for that one second that you have to have to be steal that was a big penalty against the Carolina offense DeMarcus Lawrence returns to the Dallas defensive front second at 17 Panthers [Applause] [Music] it's great top back it's away from the pressure and takes it to the 30 scrambles for six more well as I said he's a pocket passer but if you make him run he will the coverage down the field is good he feels the pressure missy gregory able to run right with him the rookie out of nebraska chases him down sets up third and long paul at third and 11 [Applause] keeping it all the way picks up five and they'll bring back out to know for a field goal try from outside a forty well this is the way Ron Rivera is going to manage this we saw the punt on in a situation we thought it's Norwell pulling around you see the good blocking rim Birds gets a good block but he was playing to just get better position for the field go try 43 yard try it'll be fill you know making one from 49 in the first quarter [Applause] and to know splits the uprights 13-3 Panthers up by 10 hi I'm Thomas Davis to the Carolina tennis and along with my wife Kelly and our kids Skye denim TJ and Maddie in the entire Panthers organization we would like to wish you a Happy Thanksgiving and you saw the trophy in the backdrop as the Walter Payton Man of the Year award which Thomas Davis won last year what a great credit that man is to the National Football League boy sure is him now we haven't had a chance to really talk about him today when you talk about Thomas Davis and Luke Kuechly they are playing a tremendous game but there's a lot of good defensive players out there to talk about when you watch Carolina play cowboys to 101 total yards so far let's take a look at next-gen stats presented by insurance well Jim if you look at this Carolina they play an extra nickel coverage an extra defensive back the most in the NFL you see how many yards they allow for a play fort best of the league and why do they play so much substituted defense well look at those defensive linemen up front we just talked about the linebackers so when you play them you want to spread out and give your offense a better chance that's why they always have that extra deep into back in there Cowboys 327 to go before half-time to timeouts we heard that they lost the one on the failed challenge at the turn of the quarter hands it to McFadden and the Panthers pounced on him and a loss of three there you go that was a Jay Klein that time a Jay Klein comes inside reads it so fast and makes the tackle now it gets lost in the shuffle to him and Shaq Thompson two linebackers really Hall four linebackers can play the read that pass that's why his defense is so push it off to the depth no matter what you do on the offensive side and again they held the Redskins only 14 yards rushing last week at Carolina record so far McFadden has seven carries four for eight yards second and 13 he's intercepted by Keithley we inside the 20 to the 10 to the end zone for another Panther defensive touchdown [Applause] 13 to 3 and Tony Romo just got impatient and that's what leads to this interception usually he's very careful and smart with the football but Luke Kuechly I think this is him right in the middle he's going to drop back it's almost like the first interception lets one guy go looks at the next one reads it undercuts beautiful job done by him he passed off the man running down the middle to the safety that he looked for the income behind that's how you're taught of course now we see the speed what an athlete what a player Luke Kuechly running it back 32 yards and how about this Panthers defense he's putting up the games Panthers now storm ahead in 22 3 and again like he did for Coleman new to one of the first over there to congratulate Kuechly with this one let's take a look and today's nationwide Skycam they are stunned here in Arlington Texas the Cowboys brimming with confidence getting Romo back a week ago and when he comes back leads him to a road win at Miami and everybody talking around here about can they run the tables go 9 and 7 he felt that would be good enough to win the division but couple of interception return and has got to be a shocker right there number 9 second time all time the Panthers had two interceptions four touchdowns in the same game now what about Tony taking the field here and what's going on in his head well look lots of time to go so he could see should be patient here in this situation just try to find a way to get some first downs to get a little confidence in yourself the football team if you find a way to get a field goal try or touchdown before halftime of course that would be great but look it's not like the Cowboys defense is getting shredded by the Carolina offense so well it's a defense that forced five turnovers against the Redskins making right up left off Sunday deeply brought down by Williams at the 28 well I'm not going to say he was impatient this time I saw it right from the gold jason witten going down the middle of the field I thought he had him but it's the aggressive style he clione der cuts it but it's the hit that comes in here knocks it well no it isn't the hit Kuechly just took the football what a play by him you think your tight ends gonna beat him yeah what a catch didn't see it live and saw it on the replay that is tremendous look at Coleman launching into Witten taking him out as Kuechly comes up with grats on the last two plays from scrimmage he got Dez Bryant without a catch but you got Kuechly with two boy this tremendous play by a tremendous athlete trying to strike right off of it and go over to Stuart Cowboys should be a sign of the Battle of 22 everything that the Cowboys wanted in this game today what's to make Carolina see if they can move the football down the field without the turnovers by their defense and of course that's not worked out very well three interceptions by Tony Romo just doused himself with a cup of water here trying to shake off the shock he's 8 for 17 for 82 yards and been picked three times to have been run back we've reached the two-minute warning hide from the field here Luke Bryan's performing at halftime Luke Kuechly took care of business here in the first half to this point Luke Bryan will take care of halftime second entry that picks up the first down scooting ahead that is Stuart for five and Tracy down to you Jim we didn't see safety Barry Church out there on the last Drive he got hurt he was a right calf injury they are telling me his return right now is questionable Jim so we've got Jeff Heath out there for Barry Church Barry Church was the guy they were hoping to match up against Greg Olson when they wanted to play some tight coverage but he watching the last couple weeks is played very well so he can fill in nicely Panthers have all of their timeouts and no hurry here with 1:15 to go and Lee and the Cowboys give up three more to Jonathan Stewart well Ron Rivera loves this offense why he played linebacker when he was in the pros he coached linebackers defensive coordinator because I love the way cam takes to decide what play to call and it's always inside five seconds they shorten the football game they're not afraid of playing it close they got big playmakers if they need to try to get it down the field or make the play on the defensive side which you've seen today or look how they use the clock here moving to the half minute mark second and 70 again all the timeouts but the not to go one there to the back to the end zone and thrown away with 24 seconds and again the Verizon halftime report is coming up and will be taking at that point back to the studio - JB and the crew in New York Plus will return here for the concert at halftime by Luke Bryan now big down for this cowboy defense it really is to just give up three after everything that's gone wrong and they find a way to get pressure to make cancer until Newton told the football away [Applause] down to the three and the catch is made at a timeout called it looked like maybe an extra second or two should have been added to that picks up 12 timeout Panthers contrary with the catch sets up the Panthers and about the two well they're trying to play it safe the Cowboys defense they fake it which a lot of teams run down the middle of the field on that look he sold it to Rolando McClain stopped in Cam Newton as usual did not hold back and fired it in there 16 seconds and with two timeouts and Romo trying to gather himself here to the Cowboys disastrous first half yeah it's going to be as they would say it'll be some gut check at halftime but these Cowboys football team they've got to talk yourself into coming back down low in your seasons on the line fake - Tomer up Tom Izzo at the last moment it was Olson who had his hands on it and it was stripped away by Myron Jones the rookie we talked about going across the back of the endzone whoo Olson had it in there couldn't help Jones knocked it out yeah second swipe edit he got a handle on it he got got a finger on it knocked it out in he's big enough fast enough long arm to the he can cover tight ends and wide receivers when you talk about Joe volts has never had a clean so second and goal 12 seconds to time [Applause] you wanted you could run it here you got the timeouts in your pocket [Music] Charlie help break it apart from Ed Dixon Sean leave knocks it out Dixon coming across to field number 50 against 84 never caught it cleanly but good job by Lee staying with him always tough to do to cross the field like I always say worrying about the other team's receivers and your own guys running in talked about seven seconds they're going to make them throw it look how many people are around the line of scrimmage by the Dallas Cowboys and a timeout called Garrett ran down the sideline to call it second charge come out Dallas I think Jason Garrett call the timeout here let's go over exactly what we're going to do make sure we're ready because he knows there's a big difference between twenty seven two three and twenty three two three and remember Carolina's deferred and will be receiving the third quarter kickoff [Music] there's Jerry Jones Stephen and Jerry jr. alongside they also understand the importance of this very snap with seven seconds to go in the half [Applause] to the end zone is wrong with three seconds going to Funches Jones was the defender there's no foul on a playful passing Affairs citizens have four thousand so they pick it up and it's broken apart by Byron Jones rookie on rookie here there was nothing you could call there I think it's a good don't call good picking up up the flags I know there was a little cramming there but what a nice play by Jones getting that right hand in front so he broke up the first down play and the third down play save touchdowns on both occasions so it brings out Graham to no 20 yarder to close the half and a flag on the field both start offense number 79 five-yard penalty footwork down tell you why that stopped by the defense that was three tough throws they broke up three passes and that has to give you a little hope if you're a cowboy player that all right we made that stand that's got to make you feel a little bit better going in and halftime about to change your game plan for sure probably on both sides of the ball a little bit when they come back out the second half and 25 yard kick it'll be from the right hash you know connects for the third time in the hand Karoline above 13 points in the final three and a half minutes and remember third quarter kick 23 to 3 lead Panthers 184 yards of offense versus only 98 by Dallas Cam Newton 11 out of 19 120 yards not a single offensive touchdown to be found but that defense came up huge for the Panthers let's go to Tracey watchin coach three interceptions by Tony Romo can you pinpoint what the struggles can be related to yeah the turnovers are the story of this game obviously they were turned two of them four touchdowns and great field position on the last one I think just trying to be aggressive down the field with the football they've done a good job getting deep in their zones we have to throw the ball underneath we have to sustain drives we can mix the run in the past I think our defense has done a nice job stepping up and slowing those guys down you mentioned being aggressive Dez Bryant no catches tonight so far so how do you get him more involved I think the biggest thing again goes back to the takeaway that limits our opportunities if we didn't get into the rhythm of a drive-by mix and run and pass we'll get everybody involved appreciate it thanks a lot Ken that's the end of the first half with the score Carolina 23 at Dallas 3 back with the horizon halftime report after this message and a word from your local station you're watching the

half chip Nance Phil Simms on all the Tracy Wolfson Mike Carey here in the booth where any rules clarifications the Cowboys to kick to Carolina as the Panthers deferred at the start the last team with two interceptions returned for touchdowns on Thanksgiving the Raiders did it in 1967 against the home invader in advancing and we'll see Newton and company from the 2002 guys really need some sort of chip going into a game like this Carolina all week long coming into the game was a slight underdog here do you think that played it all into the way we saw them run out here in the first I've seen him play like this a lot this year but Ron Rivera said it was disrespectful when he when he somebody asked him that question but just to talk about this game though real quick Jim for the Cowboys to get back in it their defense has got to play great find a way to get a turnover stop get some three and outs give your offense some field position but the answer your question one more time they sure playing like they got a chip on your shoulder and you watch Carolina and give it to Stuart on the first play of the third quarter Stuart now with that rush nine carries for 35 yards first half numbers look like this that was 16 on the ground 98 total and again the three turnovers [Applause] [Music] Stewart again in traffic taking Cowboys with him fighting for that 30 yard line I'm not sure he got there if he inches short third and half a yard to go down at you Tracy well Jim obviously Ron Rivera very pleased with his defense he said we didn't get the sacks but we got enough pressure on Tony Romo to force him into some bad throws offensively he said we need to punch it in down there are we having some missed opportunities but he told his team remember we're 0/0 mentality right now he said Tony Romo's come back on a lot of teams and we can't let him get started Jim yeah that you know you hear a lot of teams talking about one game at a time Carolina as we heard it from a lot of them yesterday one quarter one game at a time and that's a first down pick up and it's hard it's hard not to look ahead I mean you got Dallas coming in and they couldn't help but look at the scope of the season think that hey we need to win out they were thinking and in terms of what the next six weeks could bring Carolina was talking to us about playing one quarter at a time against Dallas well you don't Jim a couple things just when you white look at this Carolina team in person then you see them it's one thing to watch him on TV but to see him in person and see how big and how fast they are so many positions you kind of understand why they're ten and OH Hogwarts is throwing it out of bounds with the flag on the field holding offense number 70 10-yard penalty the people sound called on Trey Turner as the Panthers and the Patriots find themselves 10 and oh these two who met in the Super Bowl down in Houston a little more than 10 years ago there you see the comparison between the unbeatens New England where the game had Denver this Sunday night well starting today no means your good football team maybe you got lucky once or twice but you're setting yourself up where you can get that bye week get a playoff game at home man that's a much easier road to go to the Super Bowl when we do it that way [Applause] chess is covered up by brandon car payment teams multiple teams start antennae no or better we're talking about since 1940 back in ninety the Giants of the 49ers you guys met in the NFC Championship game that year later on and then the Colts and the Saints they would meet down in Miami we were there for that Super Bowl and now you have these two so again percentages you get to ten and oh a high probability you could end up in the end in the big game where's Ron Rivera was on the 85 Bears that team that got off to 12 and out before using the Don Shula's Dawkins [Applause] and Newton is able to cover it up so it's gonna be third and forever here for Carolina that lost a couple third and 22 on the way well Cam Newton just mishandled the footballs he was going to make the read could have been I think he was just going to hand it off but this is what the Dallas Cowboys need they need this for their defense but they need to stop them right here so they can get some good field position for their offense that's on me he looks to the sideline says [Applause] Tyrone Crawford berries and back inside the five and near the goal line three men rush Tyrone Crawford number 98 Oh for some reason that's just a bad mistake the god that's lined up hand up over the sinner you can't let him have that one-on-one where he can go right or left against one guy so Trey Turner turned away too quick I want to play by Crawford how many times have you heard of fourth and forty that puts Norton right on the back edge of the end zone as deep and stepped up right before the half and they do so again that punt very nearly with the giant monitor about the field yeah tackled at about the 48 was a 57-yard boots an 18-yard sack by Crawford NFL fans order your holiday gifts from NFL shop calm today save up to 20% off at the official store of the NFL NFL shop calm now off the Crawford play and the Dallas offense feed off of just a little bit of momentum nothing's gone their way so far with this unit and all kinds of confusion here stumbling out of the gates and a loss of three that was third play of the game an interception return for a touchdown by Kirk Coleman a punt the one drive they had broke down inside of the 10 a punt and then back the back pick plays by Luke Kuechly his first career to interception game and the first one produced his first career NFL touchdown running the football difficult all day everybody talked about it at halftime in the studio show don't like their chances have just lined up in running second at 13 first catch of the night he's hammered from behind but not until he races to the Carolina 35 in a gain of 17 well that's a big story of the game how you gonna get Dez Bryant involved in in what's going on you need to it was his own defense Thomas Davis tried to push him knock him off his route but a good job of staying with it and picking up that first down look if they can find a way to score here the Dallas Cowboys how big Tim was that stopped and held Carolina to three points right before half and a good start start by the defense here in the second half giving the 20 with that play and there's a diving catch by Bryant getting him into the game here to start the third quarter well he is besides Tony Romo your best offensive player so that should always be part of what you're trying to do boy that's Thomas Davis Davis coming right in on the road almost saw him coming and ducked after the release I would go to the linebackers you've got a big defensive front for Carolina we said it very fast linebackers what a great combination for today's NFL so after back-to-back completions to Dez he goes to the Dallas sideline that running game which has been in check and it is again for no game now nine carries for McFadden for two yards well the bounce out what we saw right there pretty tough to do man it just it comes out of this we don't give the credit a lot of times to defensive linemen or offensive linemen but star a little to lay lay the lay and k1 shorts have been terrific inside and they're allowing Luke Kuechly and Thomas Davis to run free and make all these place that we see Jim it's a third and three and you wander down 20 where they possibly be in cooldown territory [Applause] keep they trying to read Romo sickness in fact looked like they did have a complete read on it knocked down right away by Colin Jones and not gonna back means they'll bring out Bailey for the field goal Tony Romo thinks it's a blitz that's why he calls this outside screen trying to get the blocks in trying to squeeze the wide receiver up the field this pass to Escobar gives back one and Bailey now on the field for a 48-yard field goal see how fast Luke Kuechly got outside to react to that little screen he's everywhere and Bailey connects for the second time in this game still most three score game though Cowboys with Bailey from 48 out where Lance Barrow our producers fence post of his nights when he's at home which isn't home all that often part a barbecue well we had a little bowling tournament the other night we brought in some food from the heartache pretty good stuff a lot of fun Hannah Hardy driven both the same time I've got a question now let's say this on your menu selections you're getting closer every year you are gonna win that tournament one year 168 I don't know you know that's not good competitions tough [Music] hi I'm Tony Romo of the Dallas Cowboys on behalf of my wife Candace and my sons Hawkins and rivers we just want to wish you a happy you're gonna be having their Thanksgiving tomorrow about 15 moving canvases family being while opening his home town on the outskirts of Burlington Wisconsin Romero and Joan Romo tonight today actually right now hosting about 50 watching and feasting and open there can be some sort of big turn around here here's the gift to a sprinting Johnathan Stewart for seven well they spread you out they run his own read what does Cam neaten the zone read he reads Greg hardy Greg Hardy goes for the tackle nice block at the outside by Michael Oher and then he could stand in the pocket doesn't get enough credit for this doesn't care people around and get ready to hit him you can stand there and still rifle the football down the field the Cowboys Nick Hayden is down on the field and the training crew from the Cowboys as they're working on [Music] Nick Hayden was able to get up and walk to the sideline but now being taken in as the Panthers have a second and three mid third 23:6 Carolina [Applause] first down you know we haven't talked a whole lot about Craig party matching up here against his former team drafted in the sixth round by Carolina back in 2010 we were here in October for his first game as the cowboy against New England and we voiced our opinions on that day but here he is in his seventh game as a member of the Dallas organization didn't help them win any games until Romo returned but he's been bombastic we've seen that on the sidelines with teammates and coaches and some other games late for some meetings even dismissive of his former team calling them just a nameless faceless a part of during the way Stewart tiptoeing for about another four so Jerry Jones met with him leading into the game this week to discuss the never ceasing distractions whatever you want to call it and Jones came away saying he thought that party understood and has agreed to really work on his behavior well you know I'll say this I'll make it quick I think he knows the situation he's put himself in or he does down and your conduct the kid it can't be good it's got to be perfect on and off the field any kids how you treat your teammates and how you act on the sidelines is over with the carry and that's near another first I believe he's got it how about this you know the cowboy defense has a good stand the offense had a chance but this Carolina offense doesn't panic and they just come out and they run the football for two first downs puts Carolina over a hundred rushing and that's significant because that's now 22 consecutive games that they've rush for at least a hundred yards well then you got a good offensive line good running back and of course a quarterback to commute to by the way see who comes into the league with 21 straight games of a hundred rushing for more Nutan actually gives back to so they're still right at 100 give you an idea of what kind of accomplishment that is the last team to reach 23 straight games is C Newton on the zone read and well played here by the Cowboys Shawn Lee and in Jones coming up he had to go back to 77 and 78 the Houston Oilers had a streak of 23 consecutive games with they rushed for over 100 yards back in their own Campbell days oh that's right doesn't say why how do they do that Oh big girl that's right but Cowboys so little room for error as this team goes along as this game goes along they need to make the play a couple plays to keep Carolina out of scoring opportunities second and 12 the Cowboys close in McClain on the screen to Stewart and a another play for a loss back to back really good read by Rolando McClain very smart defensive player stays out there number 55 the whole game passing situations third down and he read it got over there and made the tackle it's amazing how many times we see linebackers down the league that stay on the field every play the effort against the run of course against the pass tough to do third and 17 can't get the first unless they get all the way to the Dallas 44 it comes a blitz and the pass but for the first down to cotchery right in front of heat this is the third time on third and long they pick up 24 yards exactly to move the chains this is just a different offense contry came across the middle then went back outside and why I say different because when it's third long Jim they're not looking to throw a screen run a draw they are looking to go down the field and get the first down and Tim Newton even told us he loves to talk on the field off to the player think he's talking to himself right here hey you have to love that throw he love the way to that they picked up the Blitz gave him the time the fine country now he sings that sidearm get around the defender and it's incomplete in the direction of Tolbert that was will preparing in on him tomorrow the SEC on CBS in the holiday MO Missouri taken on Arkansas then Saturday it's the Iron Bowl between the Crimson Tide and they offered Tigers Cam Newton knows all about that matchup you know not think of this Carolina team is before the season I thought well the downfall is going to be the fact in that they don't have the receiving corps that we see all these other teams in the league AB but they have good very good speed on the outside and now they play because of the run game makes you easy to be a wide receiver here is I'm still scratching out every little yard he can get that's Crawford on his back and he carries Crawford with him for seven when you look at the kids table everything Thanksgiving theme here wide receiver ranks their 29th or leading wide receiver is Ted Ginn with 30 catches what's hip Ginn fits his offense perfectly we talked about the run game what do you want outside somebody that could stretch the field take advantage of that the fact that everybody's time to stop the one and he hasn't caught one today till the ground by the way is inactive the Potteries having a good go of it four catches 62 [Applause] and that pass incomplete on third and three trying to go back to Khatri again on a third down good stand by the defense good cab coverage that time by Tyler Patman he had Cox recovered nothing in Cam Newton could do it's been a big day so far for Graham Cano already three for three and another chance at a field goal measuring 48 yards nose kick good again I've got a flag down though might have been a cowboy player believe us Byron Jones looked like he was hurtling over the line and may have climbed up the back of one of his teammates that was on a fourth and three play I'm already seeing the Carolina offense including Stewart starting to head back out on the field they think this is gonna be against Dallas it's gonna give him a first down take the points off the board let's watch my conduct by the defense with leapin 15-yard penalty from the previous spot automatic first now well they never identify them but that's who it is it's on Byron Jones Mike carry you see Jones right here and here's the rule you cannot come from off of the line of scrimmage leap and land on players you see him land on an opponent at 15 yards automatic first down this was a rule that was been not only emphasized but it's forced because of safety was the backbone of this becoming a really big part of the the NFL this year last couple here is this yes all of these rules are meant for safety and this is one that we need to keep in the books well that was a huge mistake yep not only field was to all that everything time on the clock you got to know the rule to that situation bad mistake by Joe Stewart climbs to the 10 my Stuart does a lot of his running between the tackles and finding Jess miniature creases and you'll look up next thing you know he's got 5 or 7 yards the best thing you could say is he runs hard which we've seen and talked about in it you take that along with the offensive line it wears guys down whereas the defense down we're seeing some of that here already in the second half now boys poor of them fall on him including Barry Church who is shaken up in that first half it's back out there hard to just toss the football and go wide in the NFL now just a talent of defensive lineman the speed of the linebackers when you get outside most of the time it's a some type of gimmick play or the running backs going inside the bounces without fair this is a drive now that's approaching six and a half minutes and started back at the Panthers twenty third of ten [Applause] Turin has the first down the Cowboys happen Adam and he broke away otherwise it would have set up a field goal try had he made that tackle gain of 11 well they're playing a defense that's gonna make you throw it underneath in other words we're gonna give you some yards we're just gonna come up and make the tackle but can't leave me riffles the football out there so quick it gave contry just a little bit of extra time to make Patman miss and note where the first down marker was for time the Jews Maturin more times has picked up first on a third down catch I love even now you're saying right was the one thing was great on you and you got a great that's the way to describe it it is first and goal and timeout called by Carolina well a lot of people talk oh he needs his fundamentals in this and and I think he's really probably a better thrower the football when he's kind of falling back he talked about a jig to us last night his father worked with thee nobody salt balanced and stays on his back foot he throws a little bit sidearm but he controls the football very well let's take a look at today's nationwide Skycam have we started to tell you that his father Cecil was a safety we said who taught you how to throw the football because he can really spin it and he said it all started with his dad again cut in camp by the Cowboys his dad back in 83 later cut by the phils in a tryout he didn't listen to everything his dad said because it stands - cam we know you could throw it hard take something off of it well yeah there's very few passes in this game where he's at he hasn't thrown all out as hard as he is as he can 14th play of this Drive and a 1st and goal for another touchdown the first offensive touchdown of this game well the Cowboys said it many times have said one more time they were hoping they Carolina would make the mistakes but the three interceptions the penalty by James ray knew where a Panthers fan wearing his jersey was sitting didn't they sure did and somebody says all his celebrations that he has so much fun and my comment is full-course it's easy to have fun when you're one of the best players out there and he just makes it look so easy such a force like I've never seen a quarterback that was a drive that took up half the quarter and the extra point makes it 32 six we were here we talked about when you England came to town that was a thirty-two six final Patriots that's our score today third quarter you're looking right here at the quarterbacks of the three highest scoring teams in the NFL this year combo platter rush and pass touchdowns on the season Cam Newton now with 20 up top seven on the ground 27 total that matches the combination touchdowns by both Brady and Palmer and I've seen you on the dance floor so I will defer to you to get a sore on this one little twist that was pretty good oh man oh he's got it all going well Ron Rivera said I want him to be himself and there's the two dances you see put him on his shoes Jim I never would have thought of that got to remember that I go to the next wedding boy all decked out and has Cutler rush they call it yes all the way the soles of the shoe made for dancin after that play homo with nowhere to go just throws that into the ground it was a rough go actually last year for Dallas on Thanksgiving Day back-to-back years they went against the Eagles here and Tony didn't have any touchdowns in that game and a couple of picks well this is more than just well Tony Romo has interceptions definitely turning this game around but physically as you sitting at home when you watch this you can see physically they Carolina even without the interceptions is just a better team now it goes well beyond just the way Tony's playing here today again they crash in on them Thomas Davis will close out the third quarter with a sack Oh Tony grabbed that left shoulder for a moment oh boy you know he took a lot of hits last week against Miami Jim yes he did he was under pressure a lot but he avoided the big hit in other words where they didn't land on him or get him in a position where he couldn't protect himself he told us yesterday morning we were talking to him about the complex after practice he said he was sore after the game but football sore nothing about the injury wife Candice [Music] grim-faced here in Dallas after Tony Romo has gone through the broken clavicle back in September the two back surgeries he's dealt with well he's been a tremendous Davis gets there late well yes turned his left shoulder and fell right on it stunned silence here to close out the third quarter Carolina leads at 30 to 6 you're watching the NFL on CBS [Music] now Tony Romo with that left clavicle re-injured the one that was broken back on September 20th the second game of the season at Philadelphia was I are designated to return came back just last Sunday Matt Cassel comes out on a third and corner and dump off here to McFadden and of course castle was the second quarterback to come in relief of Romo after the first two wins Romo out Brandon Weeden went the next three weeks he's now down in Houston Matt Cassel at four starts Romo returns you've talked about a couple of times now rusty he wasn't Miami but still and the engineer to win toughed it out yeah you know but let's make it clear here in my eyes those backup quarterbacks gave his team a chance to win quite a few of those games the defense let him down I'd say at least three times where they had to gain in him and it could have won like six of those seven games I lost two of them then over time they lost three others on a last possession of the game they had Atlanta really down big early in that game yeah you talked about that Atlanta game they had control and in Atlanta just started running the football and took the game over [Music] this is gonna course race hole a lot of questions about was it did he come back too soon well I'm sure he's pushing the envelope when he came back and they preset the date they said this is money we think he's gonna come back he came back exactly on that date and you know talking to Tony Romo yesterday gave us no indications that his left clavicle and was a problem and pretty happy with the way he felt coming out of a Miami game in a member we did ask him if he was eligible if he didn't have to sit out a certain number of weeks on the IR would he have been ready maybe even a week earlier here UC Davis lands on Romo and just crushes that the left side that absorbs all of the head and what did Romo say he said it he said it would have been really a suit really if he if I could have been back a week earlier out of ineligible which tells you quite a bit right there yeah he was right borderline flag down and Stuart gets the carry holding offense number 70 10-yard penalty still second down [Music] well next Thursday rivalry time NFC North they had quite a game a couple of weeks ago with the Lions winning at Lambeau it'll be Green Bay in Detroit CBS and NFL Network the two weeks out Minnesota and Arizona that could have great importance on seeding come playoff time both having solid seasons and again we'll be in Detroit where the Packers Lions next Thursday night there is Olson middle the field his father is here faint high school coach back in New Jersey seemed passed right up the inside good job by Olson widening widening the defense and look at Cam Newton looks at off and just lets it go that is a 31 yard pass play the longest offensive play of the game and Newton sports completion that went for over 20 Stuart for another - Tracy let's check in with you while the Dallas Cowboys just told me that Tony Romo is in the locker room right now getting x-rays on that left collarbone no more word other than that but obviously he is out for the game Jim this was not the script they just came in here I don't you know we spent better part of the day over at the cowboy facility and there was his he try to read what this confidence means but this was on at a super high level coming into this matchup where the leader was back I am do it met at the line by the way at the end of this game one player will be selected as the recipient of the Phil Simms all iron most valuable player award and you the fans can help decide the winner by voting now at CBS sports.com you saw past the whistle there Greg Hardy and Michael Oher they they both come from Memphis rival high schools and then they both ended up in fact at high school for one year before they went off to the Ole Miss Michael was a valuable pick up during the offseason as a free agent has done a tremendous job at left tackle for the Panthers this year third and eight and that's the Olsen we're just a couple met right away by church you know - we haven't talked about the offensive coordinator for the Carolina Panthers it's Mike Shula and of course that the name sounds familiar it should Don Shula's son but what a job he has done constructing an offense that has everything in it to really show the talents of Cam Newton ken Dorsey quarterback coach relays the plays into him but it has a good college element to it and of course a pro-style throwing offense down the field this would be 50 yards get out and hey - no good no for the fourth time he had the one taken off the board because but that was penalty so good no feasting here on Thanksgiving with another one well what a performance by Carolina I asked you during the commercial if this is not the best team we've looked at all year they're in the top two or three and worse New England was very sharp when we saw him down here in Dallas Denver Corsair defense they can match up against anybody either a big physical team no question at virtually every position well Cam Newton we talked about is slowing down the field but how about instead of a passing charge let's look at his rushing charge where does he go with the football he's going this way when he goes left he gets done then up the middle we see the touchdown in the middle but the two big gains off tackle 10 and 11 yards and it's just the fact it's not even as running it's that he avoids loss of yards sometimes with this running all right let's take a look at next-gen stats you saw it by assurance and a flag down well start offense no 68 five-yard penalty for salad I'll say this is Dallas Cowboy offensive line and everybody out there you better keep a hand in the game because in situations like this Tim what do you think the defensive lines thinkin go ahead and run the draw I don't care they're going to the quarterback yeah they're ready that fish put up some numbers here and get some sense there's a catch out to about the 21 Terrance Williams first catch of the game goes for six where do you think about this game Dallas is offense really never got going and never got on track who you think while they've got this Carolina defense thinking in reacting instead of going after it for the Carolina this bit over a bit all over everybody second and nine NASA decides to take off it slides for about four maybe five and that pushes there rushing total now the 19 for the game that's after giving up only 14 to Carolina last week yielding 14 to Washington well Luke Kuechly and Thomas Davis the two linebackers who make so many tackles that are everywhere they got a great offensive line I know it's the defensive line but they get protected so glad they can stop a lot of play third and four and it's back to wins for the first down at the 39 gain of 13 the throwing read by Matt Cassel look at the difference if you look inside that time Colin Jones ready for the inside route by Colt Beasley got beat early in the game not since able to quite reel it in Williams who had a touchdown catch last week against the Dolphins delay good push off good throw by Matt Cassel don't like everything for the Dallas Cowboys today it's just off not much going right as Bryant to the right side two catches 26 yards for Bryant today [Applause] jumps up and throws it over the McFadden kethry this NFC East the Cowboys on their way to dropping two three and eight Philadelphia's already lost today given up 45 points for the second straight game dropping to four in seven we have not given Dallas the loss yet here on the graphics you look at this game do you think of the game since weekend with Giants that's good to hear is with you moving it to the Carolina side of the field 4:14 becomes you know a huge game for the division title because that's what we saw Philadelphia today there's no reason to think that they're gonna run the table and as you watch the Cowboys here no reason to think that they're gonna hey get over this game they're gonna need ten days to get over this game but where they could go out and win the following five games comes out scooped up No who wants it why they call it incomplete pass that's going to be moving on the field is an incomplete forward pass second down Mike Carey it was Colin Jones coming in on Castle [Music] this is a tough rule in play this one could be challenging you say the ball was coming back be a good one take a look at on the go second attempt there's tough catch made by of Williams in traffic one other thing about Philadelphia again back to back games surrendering 45 also back to back games they've given up five touchdown passes first to Winston today to Stafford next week they play at New England and I think tom brady's a fantasy start every Sunday plays but man if you have on your team you're looking pretty good as we get late in the regular season I was gonna say wait you trying to tell me here to be a off-time give me one more hint what's coming up no but it's surely unbelievable how about the Detroit lines this is their last three games yeah three wins started with the win against Green Bay you scratch your head and you just can't how does this happen in the NFL but they turn things around they shook up the coaching staff a little caught the players attentions and they played very well since timeout Panthers 646 to go there's your champions Ethan Duane Brian and I will say they celebrated their celebration was better than Cam Newton's when you watch him score or do something well or toilet touchdown pass congratulations on the victory not enjoy the victory and they did there's a toy be in the air for it was Brian and complete - Norman broke it up boy is he a good corner yep you talked about him early it really never materialized into what we thought it would be how about that a little double move by Dez Bryant and Josh Norman not fooled at all yes Norman he has a brother Mario he's one of five brothers but his brother Mario plays in the Arena League with Cleveland he says somebody you'd be smart to pick him up he's a hitter and he is in the secondary - I like when you asked Josh Norman hey did you think you were going to be a pro football player and he said sparse you know no he goes first he says I knew I was gonna be a pro at something I just wasn't sure earlier my when I was young second and ten it's about a four yard pickup over to Beasley just a reminder the Thanksgiving Day tripleheader concludes tonight on NBC with the Bears and the Packers and Brett Favre ceremony coming up at Lambeau Field that one tonight and Josh Norma was pretty pumped up his mother Sandra drove up from Greenwood South Carolina rented a house and made it Thanksgiving dinner last night on the eve of the game now that's that's another that's pretty nice way to go mom here's 36 pieces got the first twisted down of around the 16 yard line the jump by matt cassel coming in the game nice boy what a raft that time by Col Beasley I know it doesn't mean anything now but a lot of good things said about him they have found a slot receiver that can do all the bundles little quick routes like we just saw they're hard to cover one on one nestled on the cowboys put me together a nice little drive though sings it in there to the nine to Whitman and that's good for six witness third catch of the game you know I'm sure at halftime long maverick was telling his football team besides the fact let's act like it zero to zero which Tracy Wolfson told us but they had big leads against Green Bay and Indy and those games got tight and came down to the end these players probably remember that and I'm much better job coming out here in the second half today and closing things out Carolina timeout hey Phil this is a day of giving thanks and I'm gonna keep this as upbeat as possible because I lost a very dear friend in my life earlier today and I want to express while I have this moment gratitude on this Thanksgiving Day on behalf of an entire city and the University for the great man daivi Lewis the legendary University of Houston Hall of Fame coach he passed away this morning he took five teams to the Final Four broke the color barrier in this part of the country with college basketball inspired and mentored hundreds of young men many of whom you know like names like Elvin Hayes and Clyde Drexler Hakeem Olajuwon anyone associated with program during his 30 years knows what I'm talking about well I think they would understand I know how much you thought of him you've talked about he numerous times over the years he had a great life he was a tremendous coach and man I loved watching those teams play too if I Slamma jamma o innovator behind that gave me my start in television allowed a young kid to host his coach's show television second and for Dallas coming out of Carolina timeout tucks it under near the first down yardage by P Klee he's back up on his feet I think even the Dallas crowd is going Luke he's kidding the courts they're saying they're booing but Matt Cassel is a runner so once he crossed that line of scrimmage helmet the helmet all those things do not matter got him the first down Christian goal hi it was trying to take advantage of clients one-on-one well we got a flag flag back now pup will come out in the endzone a lot of talking that we you saw early in the game with Josh Norman in Dez Bryant so after the play was over of course of my conduct defense in the 24 opposition football automatic first down though those two have been joined back and forth since Coleman's interception return on the third play of the game or look at that Josh Norman sees the quarterback once again no that is really not many guys did I over the years have seen where they can cover man-to-man and cover the guy down the field and see the receiver and the quarterback at the same time it's really a tremendous talent says a lot about him from the two first down Beasley's third touchdown of the season well cold Beasley has been coming across the field going inside so much that time he got Colin Jones fake like he was going inside and they get the touchdown nice throw by Matt Cassel Castle takes him on a 16 play touchdown drive yeah it was good he threw the ball extremely well moved in it in the pocket picked up a first down running really a good job by Matt Cassel and that was to go 4-2 [Applause] [Music] [Applause] he's got it McFadden Dallas finds the end zone in the fifty-fifth minutes of this game and the tube 80 play drive in six minutes for Dallas we don't have an update on Tony Romo at this point but again injured the collarbone the same one that kept him out for more than a couple of months and it was a rough day for everyone out there for Dallas trying the onside kick when flag is down and a Tony but all those fix remember here that talking about a player that was coming in ranked number three all-time quarterback reading and at number five all-time touchdown to interception ratio it's just one of those bizarre afternoons and it's many things it's the rust you just can't shake it off I mean it's it not that easy this league is tough on everybody I mean we've seen it I remember him Peyton Manning in his prime missed the preseason it took him weeks to get back in the groove and it was a lot to ask of Tony Romo but I just fought physical tide picking team and the 26 that 5-yard penalty will be added to the dead-ball spot Carolina's ball push down and out then other parts of the team could overcome Tony Romo's rusty dose in this hip put him out for the year two defensive touchdowns today by the Panthers for those of you just joining us a Cam Newton rush for a score four field goals by Graham Janome and that Stewart adding to his yardage cam knows how to find that endzone doesn't he he knows how to find it look at all the reaching out and he's got some pair of hands on him too though how about that he gets hit still holds on the football and look how high he got on his luck stuff today so good one that 360 eye vision that's awesome that was his 40th career rush touchdown and that ties the late Jack Kemp for second all-time by quarterbacks I would have never guessed that he Steve Young heads the list with 43 [Music] just having a boy's timeout for 15 to go and now the Panthers are ready to go here on a second and four [Applause] put shy of the first third down coming up and another Dallas timeout just a reminder Sunday at doubleheader day winding up your holiday a football with the doubleheader on CBS Miami and Jets the feature game early in regional action and then the full nation gets Pittsburgh and Seattle and we'll be there for that one we're heading to Seattle tomorrow to the Emerald City it all starts Sunday at 12 noon Eastern Time with the NFL today so Pittsburgh Seattle will have a lot at stake for both sides in that one yeah wait see it it's gonna be fun hey you're all iron voting Phil this is from the fans yep we see Luke Kuechly all everybody on that page is deserving for a Big Jim we need about 20 today really to give out to the Carolina Panthers so what are you gonna do Kuechly for sure runaway winner in the voting here's a third and a foot and filing ahead and getting it with no issue there is Newton I'm gonna make it easy okay you saw the five vote-getters there the five they got it that's their City and you go but let me let me talk about Cam Newton before I talk about the all iron award you see all these antics you see him celebrating the endzone and I must be honest it bothered me for a long time I thought maybe the quarterback don't do that or whatever but you know I got over it because I understand it more now the team but it did owner the front office the head coach and his teammates don't have a problem with it then it sure as a hecan't gonna bother me and it seems since that islam Rivera said I want candy to play free not think about certain things and him I'd say he plays pretty free would you go no question he's playing with a whole lot of joy here today as Tracy alluded to always dreaming of playing this game on Thanksgiving Day how about the description he went through talking about the smell of the holiday Thanksgiving morning healing up in College Park Georgia and between the Detroit game in the Dow's game he Anna's brothers Kaylin and Cecil they go out and throw the football around [Music] good way to play on this date falling down in the field of play that was out of timeouts you know if you're wondering why is Cam Newton still in the game because you know from once the NFL there's not like they bring in the second team like you do in college and things like that and it's handling the football and you look at the clock yes I know it's over but you know you just keep them in there maybe after this series when you know the game is in hand there's no chance you can make a mistake that's when you take him out we discussed with him all of the talk about MVP being in the way [Applause] did you want to hear a whole lot of found at beyond that's mcclain on him right away he wanted to talk about how can't put myself to the front of the team right now we won't get into that discussion with us what he said MVP will show that for another day Subway postgame show with j-b Tony Bart Bulmer coach Cowher all the highlights and analysis the awarding of the phil simms all iron award it's all coming up on the subway postgame show McGarry Richardson's built himself quite a team he has state government who general managers going to give him a lot of credit the draft picks have all come in they're doing well it's a big powerful football team and didn't get it off in time it's not a delay a game lindane offense five-yard penalty or down and to go back a lesson to be learned is you look at the Carolina Panthers patience not a great word in the NFL is it among a lot of people fans you don't find that many people who who really honor that word I know it's it's gone and you just look at all the turmoil that we see in so many teams but jerry richardson stayed the course Ron Rivera was his man and they've been rewarded [Music] neither 15th consecutive regular season win just amazing and got knocked down in the divisional round by Seattle last year that was on the road they got the host as a division champ on wildcard weekend and got a win against Arizona well Luke Kuechly said something that caught my attention last night he said we were 12 and for a couple years ago the 2011 I think it was he said that was a good team but this team he said this team is special today they proved that to me I just see them February 7th at Super Bowl that was just might hey are they one seat at the moment in the NFC [Music] coming out of the two-minute warning Graham Cano ready to add to his big day looking for field goal number five is made from 49 scooped the final Cowboys surely to the 45 it was Crawford remember he had that big sack early stages quarter three he got a paw on it and blocked it [Music] Crawford number 98 watch him put his big hand up time to just right boy Shawn Lee looked like he probably played running back in high school and with
