Bearforce - guess Jaylon Smith wasnt such a bad draft pick last year, eh? still cant believe some folk were complaining about taking him
The only way Zeke serves his suspension any time soon is if the NFL asks for an emergency stay of Judge Mazzant's order. While I think the NFL may very well win in the end, I do not believe they will get an emergency stay. In fact, I'll be a little surprised if they even ask for one because their chances are so small. If you will recall, the NFL did not seek an emergency stay of Judge Berman's order in favor of Tom Brady. I expect the same result here - Zeke plays all season.Assassin said:
Goodell is really asking for it. I hope the full weight of Jerry Jones and Zeke come down upon his head:
NFL has filed an appeal of Ezekiel Elliott's preliminary injunction. This is not a major surprise, but it does again muddle Zeke's status. If the NFL wins the appeal and has the injunction thrown out, Elliott would have to begin serving his suspension immediately, and it is possible that decision is handed down before this weekend. As of now, Elliott should be expected to suit up Sunday against the Broncos, but we are in for another week of drama.

My biggest take-away from yesterday? How good the defense played, especially the defensive backs after Scandrick went out. Pretty dang amazing for those youngsters
I know it's so cliche, but Good Lord how awesome is Sean Lee. Dude is absolutely everywhere. Disrupting passing lanes, in the backfield hitting the running back .2 seconds after he takes the handoff. Making tackles at the opposite sideline 2 yards down field as the backside scrape backer. Dude is nails. His ability to move and read is going to make Jaylon Smith an unstoppable force as he gets healthier. Those two together, if they can stay healthy, could really put the screws to most offenses in the league.Assassin said:

absolutely. Outside of two plays where I saw Jaylons foot drag a bit, he was a beast out there. Fast as lightning. Faster than Lee. I think he was running out of gas after that 10 min drive by the Giants that netted them a FG. He'll play into better shapetrey3216 said:I know it's so cliche, but Good Lord how awesome is Sean Lee.

All you need to do is look at him running down Sheppard on that reverse.
I didnt hear how Smith was feeling after playing so much. Like I said above, I saw his foot drag twice. Expected a lot more of that but it didnt happenAssassin said:
Jaylon Smith played 36 of 56 snaps for the Cowboys. Damien Wilson played 17. Justin Durant, who was supposed to split with Smith, played 2.
Garrett explained Giants forced them to play more base and nickel (Jaylon packages) as opposed to third down packages (Durant).

Depth is a wonderful thing.
That's our kid!Assassin said:
Garrett says Terrance Williams hurt his ankle the first play of the game, but fought through it. "He comes to work."
Forgot all about him. For an OL, thats a good thingBearForce said:
We will have to see how he grades out but I have to give credit where credit is due...nice job Chaz Green. Did hear his name all night and against a front four like the Giants, that is impressive.
He has delayed at least for one week my premier of his nickname.
