Cowboys @ Broncos practice links

Starting linebackers Bradie James and Zach Thomas worked in the dime role during today's practice, as did Bobby Carpenter, who has worked behind Burnett during camp.

My guess is that we’ll see Justin Rogers back inside a lot more for this upcoming game. And what’s with behind Burnett during camp. I’m sorry, but there are two linebackers in the middle, and through most of camp Carpenter was working beside Burnett, not behind. Did anybody else witness this?

You got to give it up for Brandon Marshall, he’s funny.

Brandon Marshall came out to practice with a piece of tape on his pads that read: "Adam's No (Pacman)" - with the Pacman being represented by a drawing of the yellow ghost-eating video game character.

The prognosis on Kevin Burnett:

The operation will remove chipped cartilage in the knee caused by bone spurs that developed over time. Dr. Cooper and Cowboys trainer Britt Brown were both confident the linebacker could return for the regular-season opener, Sept. 7.

Everything I read today sounds like

the passing game is seriously out off synch. Gotta wonder what’s up with that.

Never wrestle with a pig. You both get dirty and the pig loves it.

i read that too

But Romo was 3 for 3.. Time for him and TO stay after..

10:05 a.m.: Time for 11-on-11 drills. Tony Romo and Terrell Owens simply have not been on the same page in recent workouts. I don’t know if their timing is off, Romo is just making bad reads or Owens isn’t doing what he’s supposed to do. But it’s been days since the two have hooked up for anything dazzling.

This morning, Romo and Owens looked a little crossed up on a play with a four-wide receiver formation. Romo wanted Owens to motion before the snap. After Owens did just that and ran his route, Romo forced the ball to him and it was intercepted by Dre Bly.

not what I've been reading

like this FanPost report from the Denver post….

If one thing was clear from Wednesday’s morning practice it was that the Broncos could have some serious trouble in the trenches against bigger offensive and defensive lines this year. The Broncos’ biggest bodies on both sides of the ball were bullied repeatedly by the Cowboys in one-on-one drills. The defensive line had it especially rough, as Tim Crowder, Josh Mallard, Kenny Peterson, John Engelberger and Ebenezer Ekuban all found themselves tossed to the grass by various Cowboys.
