Colts-Cowboys In-Game Thread

[Walter]

As we did on Sunday, there will be a live in-game thread for this. If anyone wants to join in, that'd be great.

Game starts at 8 p.m. on Fox.

Cowboys are 4.5-point favorites and the total is 35.5.

I'm here. Obviously since this is pre-season, i don't expect starters to play much.

A funny article:

I hope they aren't serious about this, because it'll ruin tonight's pick.

[SanchezMVP2009]

Are they seriously keeping the starters for all the 1st Quarter? What if Manning gets injured?

[Walter]

Yeah it's the dumbest thing ever.

Rudi Johnson just broke a 20-yard run in the Cincy-Lions game.

[Walter]

Chad Johnson fumbled the ball away. It's under review though.

Called overturned, Bengals looking sharp.

[Matt McGuire]

Huh? What channel are the Bengals on?

[Walter]

Bengals up 6-0

This game will be on at midnight (Eastern) on the NFL Network. I'm following it online for now. I'll definitely be watching it at midnight though.

[Walter]

Ugh, sideline reporters. Horrible.

[Walter]

Dallas' running game probably won't be looking good tonight because of all the reserves on the o-line.

[Matt McGuire]

Eww, look at that starting lineup on defense for the Colts. Absolutely pathetic. Teams will easily double team Dwight Freeney and run the ball right up the gut on Indy. Might be the worst defense in football next season.

[Walter]

The Colts lost a lot of personnel, but they still have a few quality players like Freeney, Mathis, Bob Sanders and Bethea. They'll be bad though, especially against the run, you're right.
