Shows how valuable Canty is

The D-line was getting pushed around pretty good out there, which is pathetic considering there offensive line weighs like 220 pounds each.

Prediction

Jerry will think about firing Wade during training camp. The “Wade” coaches…Read and Stewart…are the ones whose units look the worst.

they're not game planning

Why some of you get so bent out of shape about the second preseason is beyond me.

Are you guys crazy its pre-season

Go Colombo? knock those suckers around! You want to see your o-lineman doing stuff like that.

Amen

As long as it doesn’t carry over, I’ll give Columbo the benefit of the doubt that he felt a need to do it.

Not looking sharp on either side of the ball

we haven't touched on penalties the last few weeks

another area of suckiness from last year

That #38 sure can hit!

by Aaron Novinger (Bigrigga31) on Aug 16, 2008 8:33 PM CDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

looks like the same slow starts as last season

that’s why we can’t get carried away because Romo and the starters won’t get to finish this one

by Billito on Aug 16, 2008 8:33 PM CDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

well there was some good plays there

but the penalties were tough, and they weren’t quite the well-oiled machine from last week.

now let’s see some D!

i agree

not always going to come out hot..

we could win

this one 31-7 and everyone would forget about the slow start

As crazy as this sounds

I hope the boys are not as dominant in the regular season as last year so they get to the playoffs with some hunger

what are their problems with the name "cricket" I like it

back in ancient Rome the Gladiators would call themselves very unassuming names like “The Rose”. Cricket is just fine by me.

not very descriptive but if you know the story behind it makes him sound like he could do just about anything…

ugh

not very exciting first quarter. preseason blah. that’s probably it for Romo too.

Roy still doesn't wrap up!!

Seriously Roy, when is going to about making the tackle and not the hit?

by Doomsday on Aug 16, 2008 8:42 PM CDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

being in the right place is good

but it doesn’t help much if you don’t wrap him up and make the tackle

by scottmaui on Aug 16, 2008 8:43 PM CDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Never

he will never learn to wrap up

we look soft

We look like the Junior Varsity

We have little intensity

Seriously….this is a mediocre team, and their first unit is kicking our ass.

Remember…we haven’t really played well since the Green Bay game last year. We could be a 7-9 team.

remember that series in the first half of the divisional playoff game?

it was because they gave up that penalty and lost their focus on the field

same thing happened in that 90 yard drive

You know...its frustrating, yes....

But I just cant buy into the negativity surrounding preseason games.

I would definitely like to see some intensity, though……but I just can’t start worrying too much.
