Update on Zach Martin?

[foofighters]

1. Have we heard about his injury?
2. I am not a fan of personal fouls but I LOVED what he did last night on Dak's late hit.

Every lineman does that, not special, but Martin is a beast

Bills player flopped...Martin barely made any contact. It was smart on the Bills though, it worked. And unfortunately, it didn't have any impact because the Bills just did the same thing later...even worse. Teams just aren't scared of the Cowboys

That should have not been a penalty. Again I don’t want to make the game about officiating but the Bills were playing dirty but did not get any flags.

The guy that intentionally launched at Dak’s face while he was sliding should have been ejected.

They came to brawl and send a message. We apparently came to have wine and cheese at a dinner party.

Once they hit Dak dirty for the second time, you absolutely intentionally blast Allen and let them know you will bring the pain. Take the flag and clear the benches if you need to.

This team did not respond with any kind of fight or pride. Quite revealing unfortunately. But not surprising

Quad injury. He thinks he’ll be ready for Miami.

Barely made any contact? Come on. That's a foul all day, any day. They got the offsetting so it was 1st Down at the spot without the extra 15 yards so you can live with it. But it was a foul.

Agree.....you can't keep letting a bully take your lunch money at the bus stop. You can't.

Come on. Dak decided to slide really late. He did that the whole game. He tried to provoke a penalty.

Look at it again. The Bills player started his motion way before Dak gave up. What is he supposed to do ?

100%

You are gonna lose the game. Don’t lose your manhood too. Beat somebody’s butt and show some piss and vinegar

This team needs a guy like Charles Haley in the worst way. Parsons sulks when the going gets rough.

We need someone who will wreck shop when the need arises

You must love soccer and the NBA if you didn’t see that flop.

Martin has probably 100lbs on that guy. If a guy 100lbs heavier than me runs into me, especially when I’m not braced for it, I’m going to go to the ground. I don’t doubt he would have flopped but there was no need to in that case.

Post #12 sums it up nicely. Nothing to add to that.

Stupid *** penalty on his part he needs to be in control of his emotions that would have tacked on an extra 15 yards.

 

[VaqueroTD]

I don't fault Zack at all. He's doing what he should do, protecting his QB. Sending a message early. It's only an issue in hindsight because of all the team's penalties and bad loss.

What worries me is Dak sure does take a long time to slide. Dude is last second. That's how he got hurt. He's got some of that Josh Allen in him, wants to run it like a RB.

 

[blueblood70]

From what I understood just listening to the game it's a deep thigh bruise something that I know Ezekiel Elliott played through and he's a running back I'm sure it'll take a little while to get him warmed up pregame but I don't think it's an injury that should keep him back unless they reveals a tear or something.......

What Martin did was negate a huge 15 yard penalty that could have gotten us going. But I am skeptical about them “accidentally” running into his knee later. They did more than punch us in the mouth.. I think they played a little dirty for a bit. But that’s just my opinion..

I saw I think allen for sure flop early on. Not sure who got to him, I think D-Law. Barely touched him and he flopped. Good enough for penalty. But D-Law did that himself. He didn’t need to do that. Then Martin negated a real penalty. He for sure went for Daks head. Did enough to scare him away from running with the ball. And we all knew coming in that we would have to run and stop the run. We did neither good enough. They were afraid Dak would do what he had been doing since the niners game. We were not just out played. We were out smarted and out coached. Seems like we didn’t really have much of a game plan. At this point I am done talking about refs turning a blind eye to the blatant holding not called.. We likely got away with a few also.

Iirc the guy that hit his knee was tossed into him by one of our LBs

Very well could have been the case. But at the time I was po’ed. Looked like he could have missed him.
