    There were definitely some dumb penalties on both sides. That were legit penalties. But man the Chargers really got ****ed and I hate that.

      Uh…Russ looked like he was in the end zone there.

        I thought that was a safety for the Titans.

            According to Mike McCarthy in the post game press conference, there was a problem with two separate scoreboard clocks he and offensive coordinator Kellen Moore were separately looking at.

            Which. The Cowboys deserved suffering through that malfunction given how many breaks they had handed to them by the officials. Twenty total penalty calls is bound to break in favor of one of the two teams, and how tightly the officials were calling certain fouls made this game extremely unpleasant to watch.

            The Chargers were the better team today once they figured out the Cowboys had no competent edge rushers active for the game. Unfortunately for them, the final score will not reflect that. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

                As long as the Seahawks lose, it’s good. But a walkoff safety would have been cooler than a FG.

                  That is a pretty lame excuse for that play call and clock management. As you said, Cowboys were lucky to win the game. Chargers aren't that far away...I think that's a really good team.

                    Looks like Diontae Johnson for the Steelers might have tore his knee up on that last pass that meant nothing in the game today

                      I’ll take the W.

                      We know refs have a lot of say in outcomes at times.

                      No edge rushers… to come out with a dub before the long home stand, not bad.

                      Pollard looks like the more effective runner so far through 2 weeks.

                      Love what Parsons has shown so far, as well as Diggs. Everyone else on D has a long way to go.

                        The Chiefs should have to use a heavier football than the rest of the league on offense. These throws Mahomes can make are just unfair.

                          The really strange thing about that throw that's scary, is he stepped up into the pocket instead of having to roll out or drifting from pressure every play.

                          Man, Mathieu again.

                          Pay the man, Veach.

                            Great game. Ravens fortunate to be tied with two picks from Lamar.

                              That kind of offensive play calling will not cut it, though.

                              Zeke averaged over 4 per carry... had he and/or pollard been trusted to get it done in two of those late drives, the game never would've come down to a 56 yard cheek clincher.

                              Very little playaction, no draws...but there time for lining up with 3 OL 🤷*♂️

                                I was about to cuss out Lamar when I saw him throw the ball while in mid air, but I think I can let this one slide
