I love ending a game with a bunch of shots of the Eli dumb face.

I am glad the haters won't come to this thread to complain. Yeah.... and 6 turnovers, enough said.

Thanks for the thread, Reality!
Can't say enough about 6 turnovers in a game! Loved that first Ware int. And I really enjoyed the image of Sheli with his "oh, man! I suck after all" face on at the end there! Anybody else get a laugh when, right after Eli throws the pick to Ware, the first thing out of the announcer's mouth was how Peyton had a 7 td perfect game on Thursday! lol
Anyway, loved the time the OL is giving Romo. As the season moves along I expect big dividends from that, especially when Waters comes in to solidify rt guard. Lots of work to do, but I love what I'm seeing, and it's big-time sweet to get this win against a division opponent and get the monkey off our backs about them beating us at home!

Shout out to special teams. I thought they had a solid game and in particular Devin Harris stood out. I also want to point out that Holloman came up with the recovery on the punt, which is a good sign because he always seems to find the ball. Sean Lee also came up with the clutch recovery on the onside kick.

My vote for play of the game goes to Demarco Murray hustling back to prevent the pick 6.

It was nice to see Witten get it into the end zone.

The O-Line held up well, and we get Waters next week. Woo!

Defense forced turnovers. Next step is capitalizing on them.

We dominated possession and played with a lead. It allowed us to follow our game plan and not go into chase mode although Tony still threw the ball 49 times.

TBH I thought special teams would be our weakness starting out the season but they must have worked out the kinks because I thought they were amazing tonight. Harris was a beast at gunner.

Always love starting off with a win. Now lets maintain that momentum going into Arrowhead! May not get 6 tos but I think our offense plays turns it up a notch.

Oh yeah, sole possession of first place! lol.

Loved what I saw from Tyron and the o line in general. Loved seeing Selvie play at the same,or at least close to, the same level we saw in the Pre season. Huge props to Murray for not quitting on that pick and saving us 4 points. And to the D for holding them out of the end zone with first and goal from the one.Murray ran hard and punished the defenders when he could.
Most of all. Loved pulling out a win against a good team and division rival on opening night in front of all America!

Went to my first game tonight and i was very impressed with the noise level considering what i've read on here.
Pretty sure lots of people lost their voice tonight cause the stadium went nuts everytime we heard "third down giants"
Secondly, i loved the way our defense is aware of where the ball is and how they're hustling to get to the ball.
Was a great site to see all this gang tackling instead of the 1 person trying to tackle 1v1 last year

We have some really good players. We'll see how the season goes. I felt fairly good about tonight, though.

Great to see turnovers for a change.

I like what I see from Terrence Williams.

The defense forcing alot of pressure will be a key to a successful season.

Anyone listen to the Coughlin post game press conference? Wow, sour grapes. "We gave that game away".

I don't care how many times you fumble or throw picks, if the other team doesn't catch the ball or recover the fumble, it doesn't become a turnover.

He would of been praising his team's awareness and hustle if we had given the ball away to them 6 times.

Big baby.

Of course, the turnovers. OL looked very good and will get better when Waters plays. DL looked good and will get better with Spencer starting and Rayford bringing more depth. I think we see more of our playbook and, hopefully, a true hurry-up in KC. Lots of things to be positive about.

I'm really impressed with George Selvie. I really think we found a diamond in the rough!

Also, really proud of the stadium tonight. For the most part we had homefield advantage!!
