2017 Week One NFL Thread

[English Cowboy]

These 4:30am finishes are fucking killing me. I'm like an extra from The Walking Dead at work today. At least next week should be better.

Thought Chaz Green played OK last night. Still waiting for the inevitable season ending injury though. Collins held his own at RT against JPP also (aside from the one holding penalty).

 

[English Cowboy]

Jaylon Smith getting plenty of plaudits for his performance also. Good on him, but Sean Lee is by far and away the MVP of this defense. He was immense last night once again. Hope he can play a full season because if we lose him we are screwed.

as long as our oline continues operate like the finely-tuned machine that it is, we will be fine.

i think that might be one of the toughest games you'll see our team having on the ground with zeke. i believe zeke and our oline is going to eat nfl defenses alive if they can all stay healthy.

cannot wait until next week because i don't think the broncos have a snowball's chance to stop our running game. but dallas will need someone to catch the ball, because dez ain't gonna do shit vs. denver's corners.

Boy, wth? I don't understand idiots saying Dak is the suck or whatever.
The Giants got their asses handed to them last night. What, they mad cause Dak didn't throw for 500 yards or Zeke get 9 touchdowns?
The Cowboys won.
In the words of Nate Newton, scoreboard motherfuckers.

They obviously believe Saint Tony would have. They seriously need to get over it. Dak was hit and miss against a very good Giants D, but the hits still left me thinking "wow, we are lucky to have this guy".

They obviously believe Saint Tony would have. ".

Saint Tony would have been sacked 5 or 6 times last night. Probably have had some turnovers too.

lmao at the end

"standard caucasian high-five"

there were a lot of dog games yesterday, reflecting a lack of decent Qbs in the league and no serious practice time for vets in camp

@ESPNStatsInfo
Since the merger, Dak Prescott's 4 interceptions are the fewest through a QB's first 17 career games (min 300 att).

Bobby Belt @BobbyBeltTX
Jourdan Lewis is going to be Dallas' best corner by December if he stays healthy. The trick is getting him healthy.

He only came out a couple times. He's gotta get some rest during a game.

29 touches is a lot for week one when he really had gotten much work at all during preseason games, and again he was gaining TOUGH yards. Other than 1 poorly blocked play I don't think they ever got him for a loss.

The Giants have a very physical, tough defense. Elliott had a solid game and came up with some key first downs late in the game when everyone knew we were gonna run.

I get that but in the red zone or at the end of the game I don't

CB Orlando Scandrick tells @NBCDFW that he will have surgery Monday to repair a broken left hand. He expects to miss 1-2 weeks

Where did all the shirts come from? There were 1000s of those too.

Honestly never thought I'd read anything like this for us this season (from Broaddus game review)

Outstanding coverage by Jeff Heath and Nolan Carroll led to the sack by Charles Tapper.*

I will never forget .. that I was unemployed and sleeping in when it all went down.
