COME ON COWBOYS. ONE TIME

Fugees, Killing Me Softly

 

[fred_1_15301]

Should have been offensive PI but Brady

 

[The General]

The guy just fell backwards violently

 

[NutterButter]

That db fell down more than anything

 

[STEADYMOBBIN 22]

Well we went toe to toe with the champs. The rest of the season is a cakewalk. 

 

[dickey moe]

Weak

 

[rockaction]

They burned some time.

Kick it on third down.

Collinsworth covered it as I was typing.

 

[STEADYMOBBIN 22]

Intentional grounding! 

 

[GroveDiesel]

Dallas kicking FGs against TB with TB’s offense and Dallas’s defense was foolishness IMO.

 

[The General]

noonan! missit!

 

[STEADYMOBBIN 22]

2 seconds left. 

 

[timschochet]

Boo

 

[rockaction]

Snap. Hold. Kick. Ovah.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Should have been offensive PI but Brady

I have no idea how that wasn’t a penalty. 

 

[rockaction]

We did indeed cover that here.

 

[David Dodds]

What a great start to the season. This was a fantastic game

 

[Wrigley]

Boys covered 

 

[The General]

That db fell down more than anything

He was pushed big time. His head bounced off the ground

I get not calling it though.

 

[fred_1_15301]

I have no idea how that wasn’t a penalty. 

Because it's Tom Brady.  The refs will never let him lose (IMO of course)

 

[travdogg]

Great game. Super impressed by Dallas. Good chance they meet again in the playoffs. 

 

[The General]

Boys covered 

NOT YET! 

 

[dickey moe]

Well we all knew how this would end leaving Brady with close to 1:30 left on the clock. Cowboys played their hearts out though. 

 

[rockaction]

Of course. You knew it was coming.

 

[Phil Elliott]

Great game. Super impressed by Dallas. Good chance they meet again in the playoffs. 

Moral victory for Dallas?

 

[IHEARTFF]

Cmon safety and OT

 

[Cowboysfan8]

I have no idea how that wasn’t a penalty. 

Tommy

 he also got away with 2 intentional grounding

 

[Mongidig]

I never thought I was gonna have a TE controversy between Mandrews and Gronk.

 

[wgoldsph]

I oddly agree with Collinsworth on something.  Ints should only count if they're the qbs fault.

 

[rockaction]

READY FOR SUNDAY, SIR.

my dynasty team sucks at running back and I traded away Damien Harris. I suck.

 

[dkp993]

Of course. You knew it was coming.

Yep.  As as a Brady owner I’m quite happy.  

 

[Insein]

Oh well. Had Cowboys then switched to TB later in the week. Should've trusted my gut.

 

[BobbyLayne]

I wonder how long it will be before we all get a reminder that McCarthy is the worst coach in the league. 

I’ll take the under

I might have lost the prop bet but that last snap makes up for it

 

[Long Ball Larry]

I would enjoy seeing the Cowboys lose

Despite my strong leanings toward parfitt’s conception of personal identity, it turns out that I really did enjoy seeing the Cowboys lose.

 

[Long Ball Larry]

I oddly agree with Collinsworth on something.  Ints should only count if they're the qbs fault.

Should be the equivalent of wild pitch vs passed ball.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Very enjoyable opening night

great to have football back 

 

[dipandglide]

Because it's Tom Brady.  The refs will never let him lose (IMO of course)

I was always wondering why TB12 has be so successful. This solves it all!

 

[travdogg]

Moral victory for Dallas?

Honestly yes. They almost went on the road and beat a team that hadn't lost since Week 13 of last season, and Dallas played them tougher than KC, GB, NO, or anybody else did.

I think Dallas might be a Super Bowl contender. As they pointed out a bunch, they don't play any top teams until KC in week 11. Could easily envision a scenario where they are 5-1 going into the bye week. 

 

[Ghost Rider]

I have no idea how that wasn’t a penalty. 

Brady got the refs in the divorce with Belichick.  I thought that was common knowledge. 

 

[timschochet]

Fantasy questions after tonight? 

1. Is Antonio Brown going to be an elite WR1?

2. Is Mike Evans going to be an elite WR1? 

3. Is Cee Dee Lamb going to be an elite WR1? 

4. Is Gronkowski back as an elite TE? 

5. Is Elliot going to be a bust (based on where he was likely drafted in your league)? 

 

[travdogg]

The biggest winners here fantasy wise? The people who took the injury discount on Amari Cooper. 

Not worried about Zeke, not worried about Evans, very worried about TB's RB's though.

I'd probably say no to all 5. Though Zeke might be more top-10 than top-5, but I thought that all offseason.

I'm glad you've finally come to your senses.  What took you so long?

 

[NutterButter]

He was pushed big time. His head bounced off the ground

Nah.   Little push there.   Db is off balance trying to stick with the WR that's stopping suddenly.   Essentially what happens on most back shoulder throws.   This is AB we're talking about.  Guy weighs less than most corners.   Regardless, I'd be fine either way.

Yeah. One of those that is 50/50. I prefer they don't call those but I found myself rooting for the Cowboys in this game.

If Zeke sucks next week I’ll be worried. He did a great job of helping out to block in the absence of Martin. I had low expectations for him  against this run D. The Cowboys clearly had a game plan to avoid the Bucs line. Zeke was a decoy tonight. 

 

[creepythinman]

Particularly in fantasy. I play in a league with -4 points for INTs. 1.33 TDs taken away tonight due to no fault of Brady.

The RB's were an afterthought for both teams

It was Godwin. He's one of the stoutest, most blockinest WRs in the game. He gives a little double-armed push, you're feeling it.

I would have eaten the flag, but that's just me. I would've eaten a bunch of those flags tonight.

But I eat everything in sight, really.

 

[DarkKnightsGuru]

No no yes yes yes

Cedee would of gone for 10 for 145 if not for 2-3 drop balls ..in this offense Amari will go for 100+ for 1500 and Lamb will be a 95 for 1350-1400 guy
