6 people need credit tonight: The O-line and BP

[cowboy4eva]

BP said he'd take a more active role in play calling. I loved the job done tonight. It may not even be Parcells, but the Boys were not afraid to the throw the ball, everyone on offense was involved outside of Hoyte. As I said maybe this is Romo, but there's a clear change. Fasano touching the ball, Witten touching the ball, TO getting the ball early, Glenn and TO being given the chance to get short passes and do the rest themselves. I love that.

As for the O-line outside of penalties I thought they played very very good. Panthers were blitzing 6-8 people many times tonight but you would not have known it based on the pass protection. Credit the O-line for that and I'll throw in Barber, Hoyte, Fasano and Jones for additional help as well. Tonight and tomorrow Romo will be all the talk, but I just wanted to credit those people.

Another guy I should have creditted was Zimmer. The Cowboys blitzed and blitzed early. Some worked, some didn't but the Boys refused to give Delhomme all day and the defensive gameplan was excellent IMO.

even though ROmo has been sacked twice, and Delhomme none, it looks like it was Delhomme under pressure most of the night

The OLine dominated in the 2nd half. Picked up all the blitzes.

I don't think this line has been as bad as credited all year.

They give the QB not a ton of time, but a lot of time, and the problem too often was that Bledsoe just didn't read defense well and didn't get the ball out quick. Romo does, and it makes the line look as good as they do deserve.

This is a happy night and the OL gained momentum, but the OL had more than a couple of ill-timed penalties that hurt the team ....

 

[cowboy4eva]

Yea, as dumb as it may be, I did say outside of the penalties, they were great on the field.

I thought Cloumbo played his best game; I was sure Peppers was going to eat his lunch worse than Strahan did.

Then again much of the oline looking better is the QB; every where Drew has gone it has always been the olines fault

OL played great. they opened up some real nice holes in the running game.

 

[cowboy4eva]

Flozell deserves credit too. He just needs to be consistent but a good game for him as well.

 

[JPM]

OL was great, Witten played great, TO was TO.
And maybe we found something in Hoyte as a FB, some of his blocks looked like the old Moose out there...

 

[cowboy4eva]

Hoyte, Fasano, Barber IMO were very good in their blocking tonight.
