Well, that&#160 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&#160 good for a first game.&#160 Then again, it was&#160 the Rams.

And at that, he looked better than El Choko.&#160 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.&#160 The running game was non-existant, and a line that was supposedly&#160 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.

  1. LC Purple Raider says:

    My Liege, you are going to have a LOOONNNNGGG season.

    Embrace the suckage.

  2. Going to have to call a 5-yard penalty for illegal posting of a PFW without a proper category.

    Corrective action has been taken already.

  3. Alan K. Henderson says:

    It’s bad when the Cowboys can’t outscore the Rangers.

  4. Going to have to call a 5-yard penalty for illegal posting of a PFW without a proper category.

    (nods) For which you give the five yards back, because “Football, You Bet” is for non-PFW football stuff.

    Penalties offset, replay the down, first down.&#160

  5. But said weekend was not declared a completed PFW hence the regular football moniker.

    Challenge flag overturned, team looses one timeout and possession of the ball. First down Houston!

  6. But if you check back over the life of This Fine Blog&#153, you will see that the opening preview & closing review of each PFW&#153 are always placed in the PFW category.&#160 Non-PFW posts (such as those in the off-season, or Canadian football) are always given the FYB category – that’s why the category was created, after all.

    Unsportsmanlike conduct, 15 yard penalty, replay the down, first down. 🙂

  7. BUT, it was not the preview or recap PFW of this season (I checked). In fact it was the THIRD such posting of the season.

    Head coach ejected from the game for flagrant rules violations, loss of possession and all further game timeouts. Ball will be spotted on the violator’s 3 yardline, first down Houston.

  8. But as you well know, we do this on a weekly basis.&#160 Thus, there’s a preview & review every week.

    Fifteen more yards for unsportsmanlike conduct, Houston head coach disqualified (with subsequent two-week suspension), loss of down, second down.

    🙂
