I'll smurfing take it!

Grades:

QB = A   Romo played mistake free football and was on target.  When he plays like this, the Cowboys win, period.

Running Game = B-  No really big runs, but enough productivity to keep the Falcons honest and seal the game.  I'm still disappointed that Choice isn't starting for an obviously injured Barber.  We will need a healthy Barber soon but I don't see him getting healthy with as many tough carries as he's had lately.

Blocking = A-  Abraham was held in check and Romo had gobs of time.  Not enough running lanes opened, but the pass protection was solid.  The RB's were awsome in blitz pickup.

Receiving = B+ Austin is becoming the threat we all hoped for.  Witten is Witten.  Bennett showed up.  Crayton was decent.  If RW didn't suck so bad, it would have been an A.

Pass Rush = A-  Ware and Rat were dominant.

Run Defense = B-  We were gashed several times and that Snelling dude was eating us up.  Fortunately, our Offense had put them in a hole that kept them from sticking with the run.

Linebackers = B+  Solid effort and seldom out of position. 

Secondary = A-  Sloberknocking all day long, ball hawking too. 

Special Teams = A+  A TD and a crapload of touchbacks with no miscues.

Gameplan = B  With two weeks to prepare, I was disappointed with Atlanta's initial march down our throats.  I was disappointed with the failure to engage Gonzalez at the LOS.  Bennett still isn't being properly utilized.

Adjustments = A  Anytime you start out with three and outs and also get the length of the field driven on your D then follow that by turning up the heat, it shows good adjustments were made.

Attitude = A  I think Brooking raised every player to a fever pitch.

Here's hoping we can carry this over to the Seahawk game.
