What I loved about Dallas' loss was that Alex Barron played a major role. I watched this joker do this for years with the RAMS...whenever we had a good drive going, or make a huge completion downfield, or throw for a TD, it was always either "Holding, #71 offense" or "False start, # 71 offense". The RAMS were heavily criticized when they traded Barron to the Cowboys for LB Bobby Carpenter ("Barron is a former 1st rounder, he's started nearly 50 games, you can't trade him for so little! Look, the RAMS just cut Bobby Carpenter! Cowboys really won in this deal...the RAMS are so dumb!"...etc. etc.).
However, this trade was the ultimate "Addition by subtraction"...the RAMS needed to dump this guy, even if we got little return. His putrid play for Dallas on opening day was great poetic justice...
