I need a few blowouts, particularly if they are going to competitive this year. I'm not as passionate as I used to be (who is?), but this isn't good for my blood pressure.

They could win their next 5 games by a touchdown each, be 6-1, and still have a -2 point differential.

And then we can start referring to him affectionately by using the diminutive form. Then fans of other teams can compare their QB to Jones by exclaiming, "Awww, he's playing like Dukie!".

Honestly, if it wasn't for that janky rear end lucky Hail Mary, it wouldn't have appeared close. We also missed 3 points on a botched snap (guy needs to be cut this week, it's been a problem since preseason and its going to cost us a game eventually)

Much much as people are mad about the supposed PI on the 2pt conversion, the pass that set up the hail mary probably wasn't a catch. I wish that had been caught. The long snapper was a loving draft pick, so, uh, lol? What a mess.

Just not good anymore. He was statistically one of the worst punters last season and struggled to make this year's roster. Can't get much worse really

edit: my bigger concern is Siposs was Elliott's holder, and that seemed to work well

If I were the Broncos, instead of whining about an non call, I would have simply not blown a 21-3 lead.

Well of course, but we are all football fans. It is easier to fixate on a single play than to accept how badly the broncos blew that game. Anyways, I'm happy with all of the forward passes. Little things.

It is very ugly, but there's not really a bad seat in the house, and when you sit in the nosebleeds, everyone is actually into the game which is cool.

There are parts of the Cowboys stadium that still look good


There are also parts that look like it was made in 2008. Aesthetic stuff, not necessarily shoddy construction.

Did they ever do anything about the sun glare coming in from the west end in late afternoon games?

Hang up some giant curtains, or something?

Jerry's still in negotiations to try and get the sun to relocate but it isn't going well.

There are already curtains. You'll see them used for concerts and literally every event except for football.

This is a very consistent topic of local sports radio. Jerry has a number of solutions that can be done and has instead chosen to to just ignore the situation. Keep in mind the orientation of the stadium is unique among football stadiums. It was also oriented this way to maximize parking. It has affected the play on the field for years and will take league intervention at this point. Jerry doesn't even care when it has caused errors for his team. He has flat out refused to publicly acknowledge it.

Rumor is that he has dictated to all NFL broadcasters that they aren't allowed to mention it either.

Reminder that the crown at Texas Stadium was so extreme that someone laying on opposing sidelines could not see each other. There was a two foot drop from the middle of the field to the sidelines on either side. It was nuts, and I'm not sure if any field today is that high.
