Rams had a new offense no one had ever seen before. In the 2nd half adjustments were made and they played better.

The Cowboys OL had 2 different starters and it really showed against the 2 time DPOY.
Why did the lambs have a different offense no one has seen before? Because their HC anticipated DAL's front seven would be good enough to apply pressure to a statue QB. He tailored his offense to nullify a pass rush.

I’m hoping for a perfect season. Still gotta shot. I’m guess we will be one step closer by mid afternoon on Sunday.

First game results have only a very small correlation with overall season success. As an example, of the 108 SB participants 60 won their first game and 48 lost. Only 54% of NFL playoff teams in history have won their first game.

Jerry played hardball with Emmitt but handed the keys to the store to Jaylon Smith well before he was to hit UFA.
