Cowboys experiencing "The Michael Strahan Effect"

[SilverStarCowboy]

Remember when Strahan took the emotional leadership roll all the way to the SuperBowl for the Giants two years ago.

Could Dallas be experiencing a re-awakening through player leadership resurgence.

Ray Lewis takes this kind of leadership acountability role every year for over a Decade with positive results.

Kieth Brooking seems to have helped aquire the missing link and re-kindled a fire with Leaders like Newman and James.

 

[Galian Beast]

Brooking is by far the most emotional leader on this team.

Despite how we've looked on offense, I'm still looking for more consistency and balance. Our running game hasn't looked great the last few games, and these draws really aren't working, they take too much time to develop, and teams are already blitzing us. We need to start rotating the backs pretty much by drive. Make sure they all get touches but stay energized.

I hope JG throws in a few more screens this week.

I'd still be trying to get Felix in space as often as I could.

Phillys going to bring it and hopefully are oline brings it as well and we walk out of there with a W.

I got a mancrush on Brooking.

Felix Jones is the answer we need to stop this nfc east pass rush that has been killing us the last few years.

Teams don't fear the screen at all against us, and they really should... this guy is obsessed with the draw to beat the blitz, and its not working all that well against good front sevens

By now every Fan (even myself) knows that Barber-ian does his best work as a closer, just like leaving Romo in a blow out game, why don't the Coaches get it.

if we've saved anything from the playbook (and I suspect we have) this'll be the week to use it

Yeah im predicting this is the week Felix really strikes fear into the league.

Philly is going to try and be aggresive on defense.

They will do a lot of things similar to the Broncos.

So this is the week I expect us to try and get Felix on the edge and he will make some big plays for us on the road.

If we win I predict Felix as the horse trailer player of the game.

This is the week we will see if Garrett has actually developed a short passing game... As an aside, this team usually has a shoot-out with the Eagles in the first match-up, at least with Garrett...

When I saw Felix catch that little swing pass and rumble about 30 yards or so, I was thinking we need to do that much more often. Teams would have to commit resources to making sure that doesn't happen... and that would help open up the middle of the field and/or help relieve pressure on Romo.

I hope Garrett notices how easily Felix picked up a big chunk of yardage.

Maybe their recent emotional outburst is just PMS?

 

[TellerMorrow34]

Right now the one thing I really want to see is more Felix in open space on passes. Be it swing passes, dump offs, screens, whatever. Get that man the ball in open space and let him do his work.

Otherwise I'm fairly happy with how things are going right now.

The thing that amazes me about Felix is that I always think he won't get to the edge but he seems to make it every single time. The guy is just a freak when it comes to quickness. His first 10-15 yards are second to nobody in this league.

Brooking has been great... I think his signing was smart.
