Well, that  was certainly underwhelming.
Dallas 3, at Oakland 0
at Indianapolis 38, St. Louis 3
Not bad for a first pass.
Andrew Luck knows life in the NFL can’t be this easy for a rookie.
The No. 1 overall draft pick threw his first NFL pass for a long touchdown, just like Peyton Manning in 1998, then led Indianapolis to two more touchdowns. Luck one-upped his predecessor by winning Sunday’s preseason opener 38-3 over St. Louis — Indy’s first preseason-opening win since 1994.
Now, admittedly, it was a little dump-off that Donnie Brown turned into a 63-yard catch-and-run, but still.
Luck looked very  good for a first game.  Then again, it was  the Rams.

And at that, he looked better than El Choko.  Then again, Luck at least has a line to protect him.
Romo had one good pass to Dez Bryant on a back-shoulder out – but spent most of his time running from an Oakland pass rush that, while respectable, should have been blocked a lot better.  The running game was non-existant, and a line that was supposedly  rebuilt during the offseason looked like the proverbial screen door on the submarine.
As it was, third-stringer Stephen McGee led the “winning” drive.
This doesn’t bode well.
The PFW will return either Friday or Saturday…if we can wake up from the snoozefest that was Cowgirl-Raider.
