If Romo and Owens have big games, 9 times out of 10 they will win.

I will not start them against Washington though.

well... I can't believe they won. I just watched the game on tivo and that was gut-wrenching, BUT, the cloud has a silver lining. Had buffalo had ANY offense they would've handily won that game. Dallas has some GLARING holes and we should be able to take advantage of them when we play.

Good to see Romo having trouble, though. Seemed to have lots of trouble reading the zones. A D liked we played against Detroit will have some effect on him, IMO.

No doubt, I was thinking the same thing while watching the game; make Romo read the field & throw in the pocket. He is best out of the pocket.
I was also thinking that having Landry shadow him some would be a good way to contain his running.

He's got a low completion percentage and consequently he's being picked once every 20 throws. I expect this trend to continue.

He's doing a good job getting the ball to his receivers in space, and unfortunately I also expect this trend to continue.

I guess homos contract extension....? what is the purpose of this thread to begin with?

Rajmahal33 · 10-09-2007, 09:38 AM

Man, I wish the Bills had a hands team. There are soo many what ifs in that game, but i think this proves that the Cowboys are very human and also speaks to media hype of this team. As far as the redskins go, this doesnt change anything and im not ready to crown any team in the NFC east yet.

I kinda like that they have this overinflated sense of ego right now and I wish the bears hadn't beaten the packers to bring them down to earth b/c I think they would have let their guard down a little bit against us if they came in to our game undefeated...

How can this be?! The Cowboys are ranked #3 in all the power rankings...I just don't understand it. Can power rankings be wrong?!

Chief X_Phackter · 10-09-2007, 11:05 AM

Romo was really inconsistent last night. I thought the Bills would pull it off, but I have to give props to the Cowgirls for hanging in there and winning a tough game on the road. They could have easily given up after the third or fourth or fifth pic, or the fumble, or the interception for a TD, or the other interception for a TD, or the kickoff return for a TD, or the timeout just before Folk made the first FG...

Bottom line is they were very resilient. Their D kept them in the game, and they overcome as much adversity in one game I have ever seen.

I can't wait until November 18th.

I think the question you want to ask is: "Do power rankings mean anything?"

So tell us how you really feel???

The Cowboys don't play the west coast offense so no dinks and dunks and a 70% or better completions. What was his picks per attempts ratio before the game? The point is, I don't think, at least hope, he won't have a 5 INTs games again this season.

Dallas' problem is that they can't really run the football. Barbour does a nice job on the draw play but other than that they are below average. Adding to this problem is the fact that Garret obviously doesn't think running the ball is important. This is not a good strategy for the long term. Wade Phillips probably knows that, but he has no control over Garret whatsoever. He is the head cheerleader. Come December things will look much different in the NFC East.

Also, is it just me or does Dockery look like he's 40 lbs heavier than he was last year? You give an offensive lineman all that moneyand he's going to go to the buffet.

The Zimmermans · 10-09-2007, 02:00 PM

From what I saw, it looks like we can go in with the exact same defensive gameplan against dallas as we did against Detroit.....since romo is not as comfortable in the pocket....and we have a healthy secondary...may I add that TO hates playing against ST becuase TO..for how big he is...hates getting hit more than any other Receiver.

And if Andre Carter comes in as amped up as he was last week....he will give the shaky Dallas O-line fits. I hope Terry Glenn stays out cause he usually kills us. Dallas looked very beatable last night, there is no way they can run the ball against our Linebackers.

Thay are 7th in the NFL in rushing and we are 10th so I don't knoe if you can say they don't know how to rush the ball.

I was thinking the same thing. It looks almost like what the bills did to them, and if they had any offense at all, it would've worked. I know as skins fans we're salivating over a game like that, knowing we would've turned that into a blowout, but...

They found a way to win against some incredible odds. They managed the game and when they were in a pinch they answered REPEATEDLY. There were some amazing things that they did at the end of that game and they came out of there with the win, and we can't overlook that.
