    • NFL's dumbass kickoff gimmick. They put on this whole dog & pony show about how dangerous the tush push is, and then they make teams play out kickoffs, long known as a dangerous play. First one: boom our fullback has a major injury.
    • "Taunting" penalty - this is a bad joke that just won't go away.
    • The "defenseless receiver" penalty - literally nothing the DB can do there. Bad rule. Whoever makes these rules needs to be fired.
    • They just happen to stop the game for lightning right after Miles Sanders fumbles the ball away?
    • Seems like Dak should get some sort of discipline for being the first spitter. All this totally reminds me of that Seinfeld episode.
    • How do you not throw to AJ Brown for 3 1/2 quarters?

    I only watched up until halftime (had to get up at like 4am). So I missed a lot of stuff. The Carter incident was really stupid of him (even if Dak tried to spit first). Not sure if any consequences will happen. Maybe suspended 1 game? 

    I didn't even know they only targeted AJ Brown a few times. That's pretty sad. 

    Lot of stupid penalties by us but a win as a win especially against the Cowgirls. I'll take it.

    Well, not really Dave.

    I mean, he already was suspended one game. Whatever.

    This is the Giants Matt Chapman argument. He is appealing a one game suspension because he got ejected top of first w/o an at bat.

    That said, Matt shoved a guy. Carter spit on a guy. He’s getting suspended.

    You guys are soft if you think ANYTHING should happen to Dak. Even when the Cowboys suck, they’re in your heads.

    agree with all except the Dak one.  Dak spit on the ground, nothing wrong with that.  Carter has be better than that.  Spitting on a guy is such a scum bag move.  Grounds for a good ass kicking.

    The passing game kind of sucked all night. Looked like same issues as before against the blitz.  The only real offense generated was by Hurt's legs.  

    Jake Elliott looked great again after last year's down year.

    Thankfully CeeDee came up small.  1st game though so take the win and move on.

    I mean, Dak spat first. Obviously the reaction was disgusting and inappropriate.

    Anyway, Dak played really well, gotta hand it to him. Very lucky that Ceedee dropped those passes. Very unlucky to have the lightning delay right at that moment, plus that other stuff I mentioned. It probably worked out about the way it should've. I always thought it would be a tough win. Happy to be 1-0.

    Watching these other games really reinforces how impressive the tush push is.  So many teams struggle on short yardage.

    I guess I'd try to ban it too if I was them. Like they got rid of 4v4 in the 80s because the Oilers.

    And Goodell.  You know he was seething at the tush pushes.  

    The video of Chris Jones trying to trash talk Hurts and Hurts telling him “we won the fucking game, shut yo ass up” is great.  Chris Jones looks like a clown trash talking the team that whipped their ass in the Super Bowl and just made you 0-2 on your home field.
