I cannot believe we got 6 turnovers in one game. While I know the defense needs some work in other areas, it's a little unreal to stop and think that the Cowboys actually got 6 turnovers in a single game especially given the lack of them in recent years. I know we won't get 6 every week by any means, but I am definitely more excited about the defense now. :)

I'm happy the Cowboys are 7-0 against the Giants on opening day, and they finally got the monkey off their back by finally beating the Giants at the Cowboys' home.

And I'm glad I can sleep peacefully at night.

I'm happy with where the Cowboys are right now. Lately, it seems teams that go on runs in the post season are those that face adversity during the regular season and persevere or those that don't look dominant but come on during the playoffs, such as last year's Ravens or the Giants two years ago or the Packers a few seasons before that. Meanwhile, teams that shine all regular season often flame out, such as the Packers two years ago or the Broncos last season.

Took the day off work to watch the game. The sun is shining (I'm in Australia) and the cowboys beat the giants and simultaneously broke the new stadium hoodoo.
It's a great day!!!

Well you have to get there to have a chance :D I'm glad we got a win against a divisional opponent. That puts us one-up on the Giants and one other divisional opponent after tomorrow night.

1-0. Division win. Beat Eli at our place finally. Team is all hustle all the time. Some forgotten plays - Murray hustling 90 yards for the tackle after the int saving 4 pts. Escobar diving on Tanner's fumble with nothing but Giants around. Wilcox nearly stripping Cruz after chasing him across the field to the goal line. Lee sealing the game with the onside recovery.

Romo managed the game well despite his injury. Tyron Smith looked great. Selvie was excellent. Miles was very good. Witten was Witten awesome.

We are only gonna get better with Spencer and Waters back next week

2012- 16 takeaways all year

2013- 6 takeaways in just week 1

So far, so good in that respect.. crazy to see a game like that.

Love to see guys consistently going for the strip.

We overcame missing 2 starters on the DL.

We played basically for the first time with our starting OL.

The rookies came to play...Escobar and Holloman with fumble recoveries, Williams bounced back from INT with a big 3rd down catch. Is anyone doubting Frederick at 31 now?

The switch to the hurry up when we saw their D dragging shows Garrett's growth as a HC.

We actually got a roughing the passer call.

Harris was a beast as gunner.

I am really glad this team is finally ball hawking.

Kind of nice to see them going for the ball. Six turnovers and it was just he first game.

Gotta love it.

I am so happy to be a Cowboys fan.

Any win is great. Any win versus a division opponent is better. Any win vs the Giants is the best. I cannot stand that team and I cannot stand their stupid salsa dancing WR Cruz.
