Ya. The Steelers didnt get called for downfield block and refs missed a horrrible facemask against steelers D
Not upset about allowing the TD there -- the Steelers sold out to stop Elliott for little or no gain, which would force Dallas to kick a 50-yarder in the NFL's toughest stadium for kickers. Once Zeke broke through the first line of defense, there was no second line.
between that and the missed facemask on beasley, the cowboys were pretty close to getting fucked out of this game until that facemask on witten.
then tomlin forgot to take the "let them score" D off on that last play, LOL
Defense would've played completely differently if the line of scrimmage were 15 yards farther back, such that the Cowboys would've needed 10 yards to get into reasonable FG range.
Yeah if a post election slate of really good games doesn't move the needle then the NFL really needs to look at its product.
They just spent atleast 10 minutes talking about that final TD run and how good Elliot was on it. I think almost any NFL quality running back scores on that - the hole was enormous and there weren't any defenders in the middle of the field.
Fun game to watch - but I'm left with a bit of a basketball feeling - where watching the first 45 minutes was a waste of time. It's frustrating to me how difficult it is for teams to defend in 4-down situations.
