Okay, I'm at the pool right now with no way to watch the game, but I do have internet so I'll try to make as many frequent updates as possible. The game is about to start, so I'll have to watch the live update on nfl.com, which isn't exactly ideal since the site is a little slow. Yesterday it didn't have the final score for the Seahawks game until about an hour after the game was over. Sorry...I ramble. Let's check out the stats so far in the game.
All right, Crosby just kicked off so Dallas will receive the ball to start the game. Good kick, it went to about the Dallas -3 or -4 yard line. Harris is returning it and....makes it to about the 23-yard line, so fairly decent return. And there's the handoff to Murray, and he gains about five yards...not bad, not bad. So now it's 2nd and 5 at the Dallas 28, and I think Romo might try to pass...nope, hands it off again to Murray who gets pushed out of bounds at the line of scrimmage. So no gain on that play, and it's now 3rd and 5. Okay, so it's 3rd and short, and they need a conversion. And...sack! Tony Romo gets hit for a loss of 5 yards and fumbles the ball! Dallas gets it back, but this brings up 4th and 10 so the Cowboys will have to punt. Not a bad kick, and decent field position for Green Bay. Hyde made the fair catch, so the Packers will start at their own 40-yard line.
Rodgers is in shotgun formation....he's playing with an injured calf, so he'll need to be careful in this first half. He hands it off to Lacy, who goes absolutely nowhere, and actually loses one yard. It's 2nd and 11 at the Green Bay 39 now. Shotgun again, and this time Rodgers throws a short pass to Nelson for 11 yards. Now it's 1st and 10 at midfield, and Lacy gets the ball again...this time he has a better run and gains 19 yards. It's first down again at the Dallas 31, and Rodgers is in shotgun formation again.
Okay, I missed some of the update, but Green Bay just scored a touchdown, so the score is 7-0 Packers. Update part 2 coming soon!
