I do not believe the Z Smith was faking anything. He was hurt last week and probably should not have played. The packers radio was saying he was suffering from bad leg cramps last night. I am not sure how teh heat affected that but I doubt Z Smith wanted to come out of the game. He was giving the Dallas Oline fits.
He was also faking. The roof was closed, so the weather wasn't an issue.

Pack got the W, but never let it be said this player wasn't above the shenanigans.

a couple of those "faking" he went to the locker room. So there was something legit going on with him. If not, he does nto go to the locker room.

The NFL should make a rule that if you go down in the field of play, you can't come back in for at least 1 quarter. I think they could justify it under the player safety rules.
Yeah but what if you go down with a leg cramp and only need a couple plays off?

Anybody else watching the game yesterday think it was complete BS that Za’Darius Smith kept going down, allowing the Packers defense to catch a breather, and then being back on the field a play or two later?

We’ve all seen this before, bit I never saw it to this extreme before.
Yep and it appeared every injury breather was after a huge Cowboys play

I agree. When the Cowboys got into a little offensive rhythm, someone on the Packers would go down on the turf. Then two plays later the injured Packer continued playing like nothing happened.

The last time he did it he walked off the field bending at the knee and limping on his hip. While reaching down and rubbing his knee occasionally. It was absolutely obvious at that point.

obvious to what? Last week he tweaked his knee. I dont doubt there was something there with him. I dont think he flopped. He was having a good game against the Cowboys offensive line. Why would he want to go out?

For the obvious reason that has been already stated. Most likely coached to do it.

Ummm he wasn’t the only one. Everytime we got momentum or a drive going someone would lay on the ground. Wanted to keep there defense fresh and get a breather. My wife even ask me how come so many of there players keep getting hurt but getting up.

Why were they allowing him to lay on the field so long? I`ve seen players with blown ACL`s, up and off the field, in less time. That was real fishy.

Far too many big plays by the Cowboys were followed by Green Bay Player down.

Of course you cant. Hes EVERTHING Dak is not. A baller at the QB position that adapts and overcomes. Jealousy is a poor trait to have
Green Bay is coming off 2 straight losing seasons.

“Adapts and overcomes!!!”
:laugh:

That's right, you're the guy who thinks Rodgers going hurry-up while the opposition is substituting to force a penalty or time out, or hard counting to draw a defense offsides to get a free play is bad form. No, it's called being head's up and thinking. I'd be satisfied with us doing that 25% of the time. But we don't like thinking around here.

How 'bout them Choirboys!
Back to making stuff up, moron? If you're going to accuse me of something, make sure you've got evidence of me ever saying that.

You did say it the last time or two before we played Green Bay. That notwithstanding, answer and explain how you think Rodgers cheats since you said that here and another poster asked you.
