Hey, cowboy fan i just thought id share my opinions on how the Cowboys roster compares to the Commanders roster and see what you guys think...So let me begin.
Offense:
QB :
Rex Grossman/Tony Romo- Statistically speaking Romo is a much better qb, but based on what ive seen so far this season, Rex is just not the same ole Rex (atleast so far). Hes limiting his mistakes and has good touch in his throws. Romo is a better scrambler and improviser than Grossman, and hes a little more accurate.
EDGE: Cowboys
RB:
Tim Hightower- Decent vision, Strong donwfield runner and deceptively fast.Also a great pass blocker.
Roy Helu- This dude is fast and agile, once he finds the hole hes gone
Felix Jones-Super fast and great catching the ball in the backfield. IMO not an
every-down back
Tashard Choice-Decent backup, not really great at anything but good at everything
EDGE:Commanders
TE:
Fred Davis- an up and coming star, gets past linebackers with ease and has sure hands and good blocking ability for his size.
Chris Cooley- Has lost a step due to injury but can still get open and make plays.
Jason Witten- Arguably the best tight end in the nfl, decent in riun blocking and and elite pass catcher
Martellus Bennett- Athletic and big but not much of a threat, sometimes seems invisible.
EDGE: Too close to call
WR:
Santana Moss-Very quick and good at running routes, Not a true #1 reciever, but puts up #1 reciever type numbers.
Jabar Gaffney- Possesion type reciever and very reliable on third downs, nothing special but gets it done.
Anthony Armstrong- Very fast burner type reciever, has a tendencey to drop some passes but for the most part reliable.
Miles Austin- Probably out for the monday night game, but any way a great reciver and a threat on offense, true number one type.
Dez Bryant-Fast Strong and a mismatch for most corners, has all the measurables to be a great reciver.
Kevin Ogletree-Good slot reciever, decent threat in the middle of the field
EDGE: Cowboys
OL:
Commanders OL- Better at run blocking then pass blocking. Zone blocking scheme could be a problem when executed correctly. Trent Williams vs. D. Ware is gona be a key matchup.
Cowboys OL- With a rookie starting at RT it will be interesting to see how Smith matches up against our rookie, Ryan Kerrigan. With such a young OL im impressed with the pass blocking, but the run blocking could use some work.
EDGE: Even
Defense
Defensive Line:
RE: Stephen Bowen- Good run stuffer, not as strong as i would like, but has some good pass rushing ability.
LE: Adam Carriker- Very underrated player who is strong against the run and is built like a house, sheds blocks well.
Nose: Barry Cofield- Has a good swim move that makes centers look stupid at times. Not the desired size for a nose tackle, but takes on blocker well enough, but could be better
RE: Kenyon Colemon: Dont know much about Coleman, but I see hes mostly a run support guy with good size and a veteran player.
LE: Marcus Spears : Inconsistant player who could be very good at times. Decent Run Stuffer.
DT: Jay Ratliff- Not the ideal size of a NT, but plays much bigger and is the anchor of the Dallas D-Line, also a great pass rushing NT.
EDGE: Cowboys
Linebackers:
ROLB: Brian Orakpo- Great Power, Needs work on using hands better when pass rushing, always find way to the qb.
MLB: London Fletcher- CONSISTENCY, At 36 years old, Fletcher is still running around making play everywhere on the field, tackling machine.
LOLB: Ryan Kerrigan- So far has shown quick improvment in transitioning from a DE to a LB, on pace for DROY, great pass rusher and creates turnovers.
ROLB: Demarcus Ware- Best pass rusher in the NFL hands down. Not many weaknesses, but can be mismatched in pass coverage.
MLB: Sean Lee- One of the up and coming players in the cowboy defense, but still isn't there yet and has work to do. Decent against the run and plays his zones good.
LOLB: Anthony Spencer- Plays the run good and will be a problem to zone block against. Inconsistent at times.
EDGE: Commanders
DB's:
CB1: DeAngelo Hall- Risk taking corner who has average coverage skills, but also has a knack for causes turnovers and has improved tackling.
CB2: Josh Wilson- Much better in coverage than hall, very fast, but can strugle against taller recievers
FS: O.J. Atogwe- Great Zone coverage man, decent tackler, also has knack for causing turnovers.
SS: LaRon Landry: Very physical hard hitting player, causes lots of chaos around the line of scrimmage. Inconsistent in coverage but has could recovery speed.
CB1:Terrence Newman- Decent coverage, underachiever for the hype he gets.
CB2:Mike Jenkins- Good coverage man to man, not very physical and poor tackler.
FS: Gerald Sensabaugh- Good overall player, Gets his interceptions when targeted.
SS: Abram Elam- Good in run support, but a liability in coverage
EDGE: Commanders
In the end I think the Commanders win a close game by scoring a game clinching Defensive touchdown in the 4th quarter.
FINAL SCORE: SKINS- 27
Cowboys- 17
