Cowboys lone unbeaten in NFC; Keith Davis out for Monday night

What a mess. No defense, no offensive line, Kitna will be lucky to survive the season. Martz is an idiot.

Washington was bumbling and stumbling all over themselves, yet even they couldn't manage to lose that stinkbomb.

If GB trades for a RB, they are still dangerous. That's a glaring weakness.

I hate waiting for the Cowboys MNF games. I feel unsatisfied until I see them kick ass.

First the passing attack. To hear John Madden compare Brett Favre as an old Tony Romo tonight was an enormous compliment to Tony. After all these years and all the records (he tied another tonight: most interceptions) Brett Favre is likened to Tony instead of the reverse.

Then on to the running game. The Cowboys have two outstanding runners whose differences have sparked some really good debates here. But San Diego broke out of their funk today and found their running attack. It was not LT. Michael Turner ran for 147 yards on 10 carries and a TD. Great average, good total. LT ran for 67 yards on 21 carries (3.2 avg) and no TDs. Following the claims for MB3 of some here, it follows that the Chargers should now bench LT and start Turner. I would not agree. My point is that a defense keys differently on different runners. When both are effective the team can win big. This is true of the Cowboys and today was true of the Chargers as well. To maintain the balance that Jaws admires so well we must continue to force teams to plan for and stop both Jones and Barber. If they do stop both (as in Chicago - first half) they then become really vulnerable to a balanced air attack. We have multiple weapons and that is why we are winning.

Finally I believe that if Cleveland can score 17 on the Patriots in New England, then the Cowboys can at least double that in our house. The bigger question is: can we hold New England under 34? And yes - we still need to win Monday in Buffalo and escape serious injury in the process.

that I liked.

Jaws:

When I look at Romo I see a quarterback very similar to Brett Favre. They are both willing to throw the ball at any point -- from any arm angle -- at any time and are gunslingers in the truest sense of the word. Both have good mobility and can move out of the pocket very well, but both are always focused downfield and hitting a receiver. Neither looks pretty all the time, but they both have great results and get the job done.

Tafoya:

But at least open your minds to the idea that Romo is looking like a QB who can lead his team deep into the playoffs.

Many are already making comparisons between Romo and his idol, Favre, because the two seem to share gunslinging, swaggering personalities.

I'm fine holding off on the comparisons for a bit.

But let's give credit where credit is due. Romo is handling a new head coach in Wade Phillips, a new offensive coordinator in Jason Garrett and an egomaniac in T.O., and he's also making the most of his opportunities.

Here's a nice little stat from the DMN blog: The Cowboys gained 701 yards on the 19 plays. By comparison, the Bills have passed for 586 yards and one TD all season.

and I am still worried about tonights game because for young teams on MNF against the cowboys who have no postseason to look forward to, this becomes their superbowl.  If the boys can withstand the special teams and trick plays the bills are sure to send and keep playing their aggressive, balanced game, I will be even more impressed and really start believing that next sunday's game can be won without miracles.

In other words - I believe in this years boys but am still emotionally scarred from the last decade and still have to take things slow.  :)

the pats. didn't look invincable to me....i think our d-backs and d-line can hang with the pats...
