Cowboys MNF Game
I'm surprised nobody started a thread on this already. The Cowboys looked so-so, Seattle had a lot of dropped passes, but that DE Dallas drafted that they made a linebacker is a frickin monster (demarcus ware I think is his name,he made big play after big play). He's going to give us fits when we play them.

Re: cowboys mnf game
i agree. i am a little worried about the way demarcus ware played tonight, i think the stats for him were 1 sack, 1 interception, 2 forced fumbles, 1 fumble recovery, and 3 tackles. those numbers worry me, who else thinks that they might have a beast here?

Re: cowboys mnf game
Ware looked very good--the roids D will definetly be better than last year. They also ran the ball well with J. Jones. But they did not look good in the passing game. My guess is that if you shut down their run, they are going to have trouble. But no doubt Parcells wasn't showing much, given that the teams play in the regular season.
As for Seatle, they had a nice drive where that west coast holmgren O clicked--just walked down the field. But their D looked unimpresive, and their WRs still were dropping balls. TOs allowed the boys to win in the end. TOs will kill ya! I hate the cowboys. Made me ill just to see them. Ugh.

Re: cowboys mnf game
I think that Ware is a gem that the cowboys have got out of the draft, but I did notice that if a team can pick up the blitz the cowboys secondary sucks...
Bobby Engram made T. Newman look like our Ade Jimoh, and Henry did not look that great either... So as for what I saw of the game, the cowboys D looks slightly better than last year but there secondary is just bad, a "passing" team will have there way with the cowboys!!!!

Re: cowboys mnf game
Ware is scary, That man looks very good in coverage and his pash rush ability. But my goodness, I hope we kick their *** twice this year. That would make my whole YEAR.

Re: Cowboys MNF Game
On the one hand I think to myself, it's only one preseason game. On the other hand, he looked very, very quick and strong. He beat out Steve Hutchinson (a great guard) to sack Hasselbeck and force the fumble. He also looked very good in coverage (snagging that INT). He could in fact turn out to be the monster that many projected him to become.

Re: Cowboys MNF Game
While the Cowboys front seven looked very impressive (even without NT Ferguson), their offense didn't scare me all that much. Jones looked good, but for the most part their passing game stank.

Still not showing anything from Glenn or KJ and thats by design--they're already proven Ferguson, as you stated, didnt play--and heck, Marcus Spears hasnt even seen the field yet We have the best depth on the DL in quite sometime--8 DL could make the 53 man roster (on a 3 man DL) Im not concerned about the secondary we have been vanilla as vanilla

Re: Cowboys MNF Game
i hear they are having problems with their 3-4 due to injuries and we will not see as much of it as expected before, but Ware is a beast and i have no problem admitting it. Madden said he was confused last week but still those stats were amazing and he was in on every big play that he was on the field. But the rest of the defense played pretty bad. He was the best player on D no doubt. I just think our line can hold any threat that he will impose and he isn't as quick as clinton. I still think Derrick Johnson is the best Defender taken in the draft. woops we play him too:frusty:

Johnson couldn't sniff this kid's jock. Parcells know's exactly how to use a player like Ware he will only continue to get better. |

Re: Cowboys MNF Game
dallas still spent a lot of picks on a dline that wasnt the worst part of their D last year... and then overpaid for a craptastic corner (compared to talent available at the same price).
but ware is a monster... those stats are sick and i'm assuming he didn't play the whole game... still, he's only one guy and the rest of the D seemed a bit bland (coverage etc)... hopefully he chokes hard twice this year |

Re: Cowboys MNF Game
Didn't see the kid but he sounds menacing. As long as our RB's can clear his coverage I'm happy.

Re: Cowboys MNF Game
Just like Parcells said, "Don't put him [Ware] in Canton yet."
