Slash gesture by Adams was a stupid move.

I would imagine trying to tackle Jordan Ellis in the open field isn't pleasant either.

Another example of near misses becoming total misses: Sloter and Lee Morris miss what should have been an easy TD, next play Sloter picked by Tae Hayes

Larry Fedora had a few key words about that series of plays... if you can read lips.

Another fun fact: Johnnie Dixon and Osiris Mitchell played in the Hall of Fame Game for the Cowboys last year.

So ideally you'd love to have both be their team's top receiver, well you got half (Mitchell)

This game is nail biter.... Sloter needs to settle down. Birmham seems more steady.

Good games(s), but more scoring tonight.

That KO return for TD was devastating
