Tim MacMahon (ESPNDallas):
Team drills for young guys ... Miller gets a good gain off-tackle. Nice job by Gronkowski on lead block vs. Church.
Tim MacMahon (ESPNDallas):
Victor Butler bats down McGee's pass. Smith blocked Butler, but Butler did a good job of getting in the air and getting his hands up.

toddarcher:
David Arkin. My bad [via Twitter]
Tim MacMahon (ESPNDallas):
Garrett needs to take the throwback pass out of the playbook. Felix would have been tackled in the backfield. He tossed back to Romo, who would have been lit up by Sensabaugh. And his deep ball to Bryant was 15 yards underthrown because he didn't have time to grip the ball.
4:25
Tim MacMahon (ESPNDallas):
End-around to Harris is ugly, too. Hatcher met him deep in the backfield.
4:25
Twitter
BryanBroaddus:
