The lightning delay cost them about an hour. So this one came in around 2:50 I think?

Paxton Lynch playing like the NFL bust that he is. Thank goodness Jerry Jones was talked out of drafting him and instead ended up with Zach Martin.

I was not aware there was a delay today... does that mean the next game is delayed? Is this another down side of playing in a hub?

Jac's gonna take some time to get used to simply cause all the years his dad's been an analyst at FOX and NBC, and now Jac taking the opposite role. I wouldn't be surprised to see him bumped up to PBP for Notre Dame (with Tirico moving up) if NBC thinks he does well enough.

Garrett was OK

Yes and yes.
A hub in either St. Louis and or San Antonio would eliminate a weather delay at least. The Metrodome notwithstanding.
