O line

I was a little concerned about or protection as well. Dallas rotated their D line the entire game which had to help with temps at around 95 degrees.

I said it before if you look at the game it is not the abilities of our offense poor performance more than it was penalties that killed drives and the Cowboys just got after us and put us in a lot of 3rd and longs with sacks just by looking at the play-by-play. We would have been in position on nearly every possesion to convert 3rd and short if it was not for several holding penalties and sacks. If we can cut those out the personnel are capable to move us down the field to include Brunell. The O line did play a major part in us not sustaining drives in this game rather than the QB or playcalling. Not to mention several moves/scrambles by Brunell to avoid having 10 sacks and making big plays. Seeing the team overcome and pick up the rush to make the key plays does show promise and if we continue to get better to make plays during the blitz teams will cut back on them, but right now that is what teams are going to do to stop us.
