…and I don’t like our play in the secondary. Campo has his work cut out for him.

We better be ready next week.

Don’t be fooled by Philly’s trouncing of the pitiful Rams…Philly was missing Curtis and Brown at WR, and still were able to rack up 38 points….but that is more indicitive of a pourous St. Louis Defense, than a tremendous offense of Philly……IF Philly thinks they are gonna roll against our stout D missing their two top receivers……forget about it….Hopefully Newman can finally go, and that’ll make our D even more potent………Hopefully MBIII can go, as our O Line and MBIII will make rough shot out of that smallish front seven………I expect more of the same against Philly….They’ll try to blitz the heck out of us….Romo, TO, Witten, Crayton, MBIII, Stanback, and Felix Jones will be licking their chops……..

torn ACL. not good to hear

continues to be a problem for Tony Romo. Other than that, what a decisive victory. Felix looked great, and hopefully MB3 is fine, because the running game was awesome. Defense got a little lucky that the Browns played sloppy, but overall impressive as well.

Man, as good as the Cowboys are, the Browns did not look good. They won 10 games last season?

But to be fair, STL is really really bad.

What with Crayton being our #2 receiver and not bringing in a veteran receiver we wont need in a few weeks and instead going with Stanback as our #3 it’s a wonder we were able to hang with Cleveland, much less beat them.

10 pts., thats whats up!

Just on ESPN that the X-Ray’s came out negaive on Barber’s injury. He may play next week.

Timmy Mac

The X-rays were negative, and the Cowboys are optimistic that he’ll be able to play against in next week’s big NFC East matchup.

These are the things that stand right out to me after this first win:
1. O-Line are beasts, heck I could have gained yards through those holes.

2. All Hail Patrick Crayton, behold the glory of our #2 receiver!

3. When Felix ran the ball it looked like everyone else was running at 3/4 the speed he was running.

4. We didn’t get Choice enough carries.

5. Secondary was sharp all the way around, Adam Jones’ interference call came because he got his feet tangled up and tripped.

6. The Brown’s O-Line was impressive at times, especially their left tackle.

7. At times it looked like the Browns couldn’t cover anybody, I saw plays where literally everyone was wide open.

8. The game was over when Crennel kicked the FG instead of going for it.

9. Offense ran like a well oiled machine, everyone got a piece except Martellus(but he blocked well)

10. Romo had enough time to go on several dates with Jessica in the pocket, Browns pressure came too little too late.

That heavy weight that has sat on my back since things abruptly ended last year is now gone. I got to see the Cowboys not just win, but dominate a good time. Let Philly talk smack about beating the Rams, my High School team can beat the Rams. Let the hate being people, now that the light work is done it’s time to strap up, and go to work(don’t forget your cup). This game was satisfying on so many levels, I give it a solid 8 performance wise.

This O-line is going to be great.

Last year I mentioned several times that I wasn’t happy with the running game especially on first and second down. This team found itself in far too many third and long, more than six yards for a first down. Although Dallas was one of the best in the league in converting them, it was only a matter of time before it caught up wth them.

Hudson Houck was one of thee best offseason signings IMO. He’s thee best O-line coach in the NFL. I was never a big fan of Sporano, and I was estatic that Miami released Hudson Houck and thought jerry made a very smart move in bringing him back, and after what I’ve seen today from this offensive line with regards to its dominating running and pass blocking, the sky is the limit for this offense, it only opens up the offense even more. I haven’t seen holes like that since the early ninties when Emmitt was running to daylight.

Tony Romo looked really good, except the two poor decisions, one which he locked on T.O and threw it into coverage for which he had no chance to complete the pass and it was intercepted in the endzone and another that was almost intercepted trying to throw it to T.O again in the middle at the goal line when Dallas was going in for a score. It reminded me of the preseason houston game where he tried to force a ball to curtis in the endzone only to have it picked off. It was second down,Tony’s got to curve that temptation to try to force balls into spaces where he has no chance of getting it there and throw it away and try again on third down. Tony had very quiet feet in the pocket, he wasn’t shuffling all around, his footwork was great and his arm motion throwing the ball was compact and over the top instead of slinging it causing poor throws. he had this offense rolliing from the get go, hitting receivers in stride and making the right decisions, especially on the blitz where he dumped it to Witten for a long run and a first down. Offense’s look alot better when it starts fast putting pressure on the defense instead of what happen mant times last year when it was almost half time before the Offense put a scoring drive together.

The only real big negative this game were the eleven penalties, that’s somethnig that needs to be fixed quickly. And really, the season really doesn’t start until Flozell gets his first false start penalty …

All in all, this team was dominating, the score really wasn’t that close. Hopefully the team can build on this game, correct the penalties and burry the Eagles next week.

might even beat out Kozier

and as for grizz i like you style of writing i just think rubbing the losing teams nose in it in this case is a tad below you…..but what ever i’m not going to hold it against you, it’s just that there were so many positives that we could be singing the praises of our team all night. and we all pretty much know clev. had a tough pre-season so i feel like we’re better than that,they treated us with respect, they fought the’re guts out and they new they were out classed, but they showed and they came with pride………..now if that would have been an eagle team i’d be standing at your side pissing on mcnabb’s pools of vomit. but that’s just my 2 cents…

Looked good running, but he’ll need some work on blocking. The INT was partly his work.

were the penalties and not letting El Gato share the load earlier in the game. When the brownies started teeing off on ROmo, that would have been the perfect time for a screen to el gato

Contribute and appear to make it out the game without a setback.

The guy is coming up on 35 and is still a special player. The offensive pass interference on him was bogus. Crayton looks as good as ever. As long as our core guys stay healthy it won’t matter who the 3rd wr is.

know what? I have not seen a single comment about Special Teams; could it be that they did a good enough job that it is not a sore spot at least for this week. I will say that Redball will have some special instore for the iggles to keep them off balance (probably using el gato); but a big game next week. I hate having to wait until monday to see a game; I can hardly wait!!!!

it’s blitz pickups. Yes, we were great in picking up the blitzes today, but Jim Johnson uses more exotic, less predictable blitzes, and with a lot more frequency. Also, if there was one good thing that JuJo did better than Barber in my opinion, it was picking up the blitzes. I can think of several times last year when Barber whiffed on blitzers, almost causing Romo to get creamed. Not to mention that there will be times when our rookie backs are going to be alone back there to pick up edge rushers and blitzing LB’s.

regardless of who plays 3rd WR…..Austin, Hurd, or Stanback……they are all the 5th option on the field after TO, Witten, Crayton, and checkdowns to MBIII…….He also added some blocking as well while in there…..we’re good to go…..bring on Philly.
