The Rams have something with the RB Brown. He looked really good when Gurley was there. He deserved more PT as Gurley faded. Now they have the rookie they seem to want to give that PT.
Brown is a physical runner. He’s got some wiggle to him too. He’s good on screens. He can be the 3 down answer.
Am I the only one who hates the piped in crowd noise? It’s like listening to the laugh track on a bad sitcom. Just ends up feeling like the whole thing is staged with all the authenticity of professional wrestling. Your reactions, if any?

So far Rams look sharp.
Agreed on Brown. He's a free agent next year. I wouldn't mind going after him instead of retaining Gallman.

Before today, I didn't like the idea of fake crowd noise. But watching the games, I don't really care.
I really interested in seeing if we see a reduction in certain penalties called, like pass interference or hits to defenseless receivers, where you always had to wonder if live crowd reactions were possibly influencing the ref's decisions to throw flags.
If he stays injury free.
Look I hate the Cowboys but I do like Dak’s play as a QB and feel most BBI posters downplay how good he has been his first 4 years.
OK take your shots at me!!!

I completely agree - he is a lot better than I thought he'd ever be. Last year when he shredded us week 1 I figured it was more us than him but then he played that well all season despite a bunch of injuries around him. Now he's got Lamb who already looks like he just has "it". Cowboys really misjudged those extension negotiations. The rumors of his ask for $30m aav seemed crazy 2 offseasons ago and now he's probably going to end up with $40m.
Until Mccarthy falls in love with his play calling and ignores the run. Dak looks good but that offense isn't going to blow anyone away because the OL is already shaky and Mccarthy is a blithering idiot at this point. They have all the weapons you can ask for but that OL is in trouble if they lose anyone else. They looked unstoppable against us then crashed down the stretch, I expect more of the same with a worse coaching staff and the meddling owner.
the defense is worse and the OL is hanging on by whatever is left of Tyron Smith's back. But with those 3 WRs and their defense being very beatable, Dak is going to put up some big #'s if the OL plays well.
more interested to see if we get holding called on us.
We are trending to the lowest amount of holding calls in any week in recent memory. By a wide margin. There have been 5 offensive holding penalties called today.

Does the crowd really have that big of an impact?
Def on hard counts. At leaat by the looks of it today it does...
but their offense and defensive Coordinator will always keep them in the game.. Having great DC makes a difference.
Another topic you have the pulse of!
Let's see. The Cowboys stupidly went for a 4th down when they could have tied the game and then their D has allowed the Rams to keep the ball for most of the game.
By the way - shouldn't the Cowboys be in every game by nature of the perception that they have a ton of talent??
being out for the year could be a significant blow. They don't really have a viable backup. They also could have some problems in the middle of the D with injuries
LVE is even bigger than Jarwin and Rapoport just tweeted this

#Cowboys star LB Leighton Vander Esch suffered a fractured collarbone early in the game tonight, source said. He’ll land on Injured Reserve, a brutal blow. The nerve center of the defense and one of its top playmakers, Vander Esch’s loss stings. He’ll be back this season.

Wow. It would have been nice to give WAS that last game and have that guy in our huddle. A true 2 way impact player at a critical position. He looked REALLY good today.

When they show it in slow motion, it doesn’t look like much, but Collinsworth mentioning there might have been some acting involved by Ramsey? How can someone fake being pushed backwards while running full speed in the opposite direction? If you want to call it Ricky tack, fine, but you can’t fake that.

He slightly sold it with his body language (throwing his arms back a bit in a flop motion), and that was a great job by Ramsey, but that’s not to say it wasn’t OPI. I went back and watched it full speed and you clearly see he extends the arm forcibly enough to gain separation at the exact time needed to make the catch. It was definitely OPI. You can’t just show that shit in super slow motion from that angle they kept repeating and think you’re going to be able to make proper judgment. IMO you have to see it at full speed to see how he clearly pushed to gain an advantage. Good call IMO.

One of the worst wins in Giants history.
Awful win. If you really watched him in college it was obvious he’s an otherworldly talent. People who were calling him overrated had no clue what the fuck they were saying. They were basing that off the last couple games of the season (the only games they probably watched) when the opposing teams were doubling and tripling him every single play because they refused to let Young be the reason they lost... and he was still getting pressures and hits on the QBs regardless.
I kept seeing people on this site saying “he seemed to be ALMOST getting to the QB but didn’t have what it takes to get the sacks.” Like yeah that’s because they designed their entire offense to double and triple team him. Before teams started doing that he was averaging like 1.5 sacks per game which is unheard of.
he was going up against 38 year old LT that switched to RT and just back to LT. Who couldn't receive any help because of how bad the rest of the offensive line is and how good the rest of the Skins front 7 is. Guy is definitely at the very least going to be a good football player, but let's give it a full season before we start saying the Skins win will haunt us forever. I imagine this sentiment is going to be much worse tomorrow after Thomas gets abused tomorrow night.

That 38 year old former pro bowler, would probably have eaten any other rookies lunch for them. I'm just saying, it was impressive for a rookies first game.
ridiculous to bemoan a win. Are teams supposed to just throw games? And are we already saying that Young is going to be a much better player than Thomas?
....on fourth and THREE when he had a gimme FG to tie.
I think you take the tie there, unless it's fourth and one or less.
They ultimately got the ball back and were probably given a bad call on the long pass to Gallup, but they were getting call throughout the game I thought.
Not impressed with the OL from Dallas.........at least in terms of how good they have been the last several years there.
He is a big loss. They really need to be concerned long term with him. Already with the neck issues, now he breaks his collarbone. That does not get stronger. He really could have issues with that long term as well. Those do not bode well for long career

He didn't get moved to tackle even, it was guard. At some point a player that gets too old there doesn't mean shit if you were a former pro bolwer or not. Can't hit the bare requirment athletic components to play the position. He was shit today and you should expect a physical freak like him should abuse him. It was about as juicy as a matchup you can get when you are Chase Young.
I think he's going to be a top 10 DE soon and through his prime. Not sure the guy is going to have All Pros on his resume when all said is done. When we are talking about missing on players in the top 5 should be about.
I never liked him in GB. Rodgers made him look a lot better than he ever was.
I agree. It's only 1 game, but in general they looked a lot sloppier yesterday than they have under Garrett the last decade or so. Zeke, Dak, and the WRs have the talent to give a lot of teams problems but the defense was getting steamrolled by a mediocre RB and a mediocre OL. They got dominated in time of possession and 3rd down efficiency and lost despite getting the only TO of the game on a fortunate pick on what should have been a roughing the passer penalty.
don't think Dak is as bad as some make him out to be, but he certainly isn't as good either.
What Dak has consistently shown is that when the burden is on him to make plays, he often comes up short. When he plays playoff-caliber teams, he often comes up short.
And I'm hoping the Cowboys back up the truck for him
Brown is a physical runner. He’s got some wiggle to him too. He’s good on screens. He can be the 3 down answer.

They have to outscore everyone.
The chiefs would drop 40 on em
And missed the hold at the line of scrimmage on the same play. Refs are in Jerry world.
I know. Its like dallas always backs into these fucking calls
How did they miss thst blow to head? Morrow if we sneeze in bens face there will be a call

They don't have to go on about how much he did, but acting like he was just immature and now is a great influence is a little ridiculous.

Shades of Romo...
Always good on Monday’s after a Cowboy loss
Plus...
Cowboys lost.
PHI lost.
Nice Sunday.

The game was over but he still got his ass kicked
Knocked on his ass by a hand punch

Collins's replacement Earving got hurt, so they had to play their 3rd string OT, a rookie UDFA.
THATS like if the Giants played Tyler Haycraft at OC tonight...
Dak was 1-8 for 11 yards on 3rd down
I never liked him in GB. Rodgers made him look a lot better than he ever was.
