I'm sure it was a laughing manner when we had those penalties against us in Green Bay during the playoffs or the missed holding call to close the game that would have kept the Packers out of field goal range. Bad officiating against Dallas has been a pattern.

Rush should supplant Moore. If he doesn't, there is some Moore Linehan favoritism going on. I don't care how smart moore is. He isn't flashing on the field. Make him some kind of minicoach or something, but I don't want to see him on the field.

Gathers has something special. Guy has barely played ball but he's making plays on the field. I was impressed with the way the defense gelled at the end despite getting spanked early on. I can't really say any names that 'stood out', but they came together as a unit. Marinelli effect.

Watch the game. He was very effective. He was also playing with a line that opened no holes. He pretty much got everything on his own.

Watch the game? The game I watched he averaged 3.6 ypc, and yes his OL opened no holes, but not like they were going up against Arizona's defensive starters. They had backups in the game too.

Wow...you were serious?

You think the refs were trying to rig the preaseason HOF game?

no big injuries. that's all that really matters.

OL guys looked OK. 0 sacks, credit to the QBs for getting rid of the ball quick, sometimes w/ dudes right in their face (Rush QB to Nwachukwu)

got to see a few guys on defense.

Frazier had a couple of good plays on ST.
Awuzie nearly had a pick/pick6.
Anthony Brown looks like he's ready to build on 2016 for a better 2017.

People here saying McFadden should be worried about Rod Smiths play tonight. Checked stats....18-64, 3.6 ypc. Pretty sure McFadden isn't worried.

McFadden...3 for -6, -2 ypc.

While Smiths ypc aren't impressive he looked good hitting the holes, fighting for extras yards and being a physical back. Is McFadden worried? Doubt it, but he should be glancing over his shoulder after this game; even if it was just preseason.

I watched him average 3.6 ypc vs Arizona's 2nd/3rd team defense. What game were you watching?
One where I don't look at a stat sheet to determine a players effectiveness. I use my own eyes. If you watched the game and didn't come away being impressed by what Rod Smith did, you must have had a few too many beers throughout the game :thumbup:
