Then What is ? #Cowboys

Nice kick. Bet Dallas wishes they had Eddy Piñeiro right now.
— Burgundy Blog (@BurgundyBlog) September 10, 2021
As great as the Cowboys offense is, they’re not going to win a lot of games playing offense like this. Dak throwing 50+ times while Ezekiel Elliott gets 11 carries a game isn’t a winning strategy.#WashingtonFootball pic.twitter.com/y4G1py6MWv

They might as well go ahead and trade Ezekiel Elliot to the Ravens. He would get more than 4 carries in the first half
— Robert Griffin III (@RGIII) September 10, 2021
Is now a good time to remind everyone that Ezekiel Elliott is the most overrated player in the NFL? He’s averaging 1.8 yards per carry tonight. His longest run was 4 yards. Here he is allowing a DB to gobble him up 1-on-1 for no gain in the open field. pic.twitter.com/Dkce3fl94W

Ezekiel Elliott with an awesome #LoserLeague special to start the season: 11 carries, 33 yards, less than 10 yards receiving. 3 points.

Look When you snap your head back like Paul Pierce and then fall flat on your stomach.
That’s a flop.
— Will Blackmon (@WillBlackmon) September 10, 2021
it’s called ROBOT (roll over and back) technique. The linebacker’s first responsibility is run, and if once he sees pass he backpedals he’ll never get there so he’s taught to turn and run and find crossers. He doesn’t get there but not “completely lost” https://t.co/W3p15M6xQ6

♀️ a headlock is not a “tight call” for holding, seriously?!
— Courtney Rivera (@NFL2Ucla) September 10, 2021
100% correct but the modern fan will take a severely flawed game as long as it’s close. I see it all the time in college basketball where poorly played games are painted as masterpieces

Great to see football back. Fun game if you like offense and sloppy play — this tweet will probably be evergreen.

Buccaneers are the first team in NFL history to lose the turnover margin by at least 3, incur 100 penalty yards, allow 450 yards, and still win the game.

Flag for helmet off by David? Not a call? I miss a rule change?
— BryanBroaddus (@BryanBroaddus) September 10, 2021
UPDATE re: the Buccaneers player removing his helmet on the field and slamming it on the ground in frustration. They changed the “Dwayne Rudd Rule” in 2019. Players are now permitted to do this unless they are celebrating or in “confrontation” with an official or another player. https://t.co/gDPcHqGJkf

Paying 7m brings the cost of that 3rd round pick to the same as a late 1st rounder. It’s a big premium to pay. This isn’t specific to the Texans. Teams overpay when dumping players imo. https://t.co/7gARjOMqtC

The Ravens aren’t done bringing in veteran RBs. Per sources, they are working on finalizing a deal with Latavius Murray. Should get done.

3 rookies (Jerry Jeudy, Tee Higgins, CeeDee Lamb) finished among the top 10 in dropped passes last year. 2 (Deebo and TE Dawson Knox) among the top 10 in 2019, Calvin Ridley finished 2nd in league in 2018. And most rookies don’t get targeted enough to reach the leaderboard.
