***Game Thread*** NY Giants at Dallas (-8.5) (54) (1 Viewer)

[Steve Tasker]

For such an ugly looking injury it did not look like he was in a lot of pain when it first happened.

I had a very serious ankle break in high school, eerily similar to Dak's injury - to the point where multiple people have texted me in the past few minutes about his injury looked the same as mine.  I can tell you that when it happened, I didn't even realize it, and tried to stand up, before reaching down to my ankle and realizing that my foot is not at the bottom of my leg where it's supposed to be.  It's like a feeling of shock and adrenaline immediately.  The "oh ####" moment didn't set in for ~5 seconds.

 

[GoBirds]

They used to say Wentz was a Top 5 QB too

The way he’s looked this season if he reaches Wentz level that will be a huge win for him. 

 

[The Frankman]

Nice uncalled hold there on #58.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Not really. He's a bit of a turnover machine with a fatal flaw of being unable to sense pressure. He needs to resolve that bigtime.

He had several plays in this game where he did exactly that & found open receivers. 

its a mixed bag.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

ThT foot came up. 

 

[The Frankman]

That right foot might be coming up there... but it's not clear and obvious. :(

 

[Ghost Rider]

Not sure if his right foot stayed on the ground before he secured the ball.  Tough call.

 

[The Frankman]

He had several plays in this game where he did exactly that & found open receivers. 

its a mixed bag.

Trust me, this is a rare instance this season of him somewhat consistently feeling it coming.

 

[The Frankman]

Giants should blitz Dalton, they can't let him have time-

EDIT: oh my god...

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Kitna should be signed to a long term deal immediately

 

[Ghost Rider]

Awesome throw and catch.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Trust me, this is a rare instance this season of him somewhat consistently feeling it coming.

I’ve seen a lot of him. I think he has a better future ahead. Needs a year with a healthy team around him. He hasn’t had anything resembling that. And 1st year Garrett. Im holding off judgement until after next year. 

 

[PennStater77]

What a great catch

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

He may have stepped out? Hmm

 

[Ministry of Pain]

What a catch by Gallup here

 

[Insein]

Cowboys lead the division.

 

[modogg]

wow Jim literally sucking off Dallas with these calls. Funny how Romo seems the most objective of the crew

 

[dickey moe]

CATCH

 

[The Frankman]

Did his knee come down OOB before two feet did? That's the only issue.

EDIT: Catch. Well that's game.

 

[Sam Quentin]

Made the catch...not sure about the spot and the clock

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Catch. 

 

[modogg]

Cowboys lead the division.

playing the 0-4 Giants helps. If Dak is out for awhile....

 

[The Frankman]

Jesus Christ he nearly missed it AGAIN.

 

[Insein]

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Wobbly Kick, looked like it was going Wide Right, sneaks that ball in there

37-34

Gritty performance by Dallas after a devastating injury. 

Dalton Era begins Now!

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Jesus Christ he nearly missed it AGAIN.

I wish he had. I needed OT for some points 

:(  

 

[Skipdog77]

Just like they drew it up

 

[G-King]

Gods team? Heck yes, he blew on it and it went in!

Kitna Era begins Now!

Going to be hard , Kitna is the head coach at our high school

 

[Craig_MiamiFL]

Now that the Boys "lost" their weak link on offense, they might be able to do something this season.

Sucks for him, but the Dak injury is the best thing to happen to the franchise. Can finally put an end to the charade he's a high end QB talent

 

[modogg]

wow, didn't realize the Giants hadn't topped 16 points in a game all year

 

[Cowboysfan8]

While fans and I'm sure the players are mourning over Dak, give credit to Dallas for not folding, at least not yet. If they were to win this game, it won't heal the wounds from the Dak injury today but it would likely put them in 1st place. 

I think Andy Dalton can function with this many weapons and a stud RB and a somewhat solid OL, you never know. He has tons of experience and if they can get off the field and circle the wagons, they might actually be able to salvage the season. 

This isn't Cincinnati GD, it's Dallas!

Oline is junk

Classy.

Yeah too many Coronas today watching the games and still have to get thru the Rays, heat and the SNF game...i changed it. 

Dalton Era Begins!

 

[perbach]

Classy.

He is right though. 

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Who’s claiming Dalton? 

 

[Cowboysfan8]

I assume you haven’t added a Dalton jersey to your NFL dot com cart yet? 

If he beats Philly twice I’ll buy one

Dalton made some good throws. Let's see how he does versus a good defense. Neither Dak nor Dalton are signed for 2021. 

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Looked pretty good today. 

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Looked pretty good today. 

He should be ok

Line sucks, he will be running for his life. He’s not exactly a statue though 

Hopefully they try to get back to running the ball more 

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Hopefully they try to get back to running the ball more 

Looked that way - I thought they were a little too pass happy this year. I’m a Zeke owner, so clearly biased, but they really were too pass happy. Led to a lot of bad clock management, and too many 3 & outs. 

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

They just said it was a compound fracture.

so now we’re in Alex Smith/Theisman territory.  Cross your fingers for Dak.  This is a really difficult injury. Hopefully surgery goes well with no complications.
