Looks like Leary our former left guard is out with a concussion and his replacement played his first NFL snap last night. Garett Bolles and Menelik Watson, one a work in progress and the other not worthy of average play. This might be a similar in talent line to the Giants if not a smidgen worse.

CJ Anderson the RB is better than anyone we played against on Sunday eighty yards against the Chargers. The QB Siemian was efficient with an overall stat line of 17/28 for 219 yards and two touchdowns. Most importantly, he was money on third down situations. Demaryius Thomas had a long catch, but did not dominate, AJ Derby the TE played well.

The no fly zone was adequate and the Chargers picked on Roby most of the night. We saw better on Sunday night against the Giants. I was underwhelmed with the Broncos’ pass rush and outside of one sack and a few hurries, they weren’t able to consistently get after Rivers considering the poor Oline the chargers put on the field. The Cowboys are significantly ahead of most teams with our Oline play, wow it never hit me before how great the distance is between us and other teams.

This ain't the Bronco team that went to a couple SB's recently.

The Cowboys have a better than 50/50 shot of beating them in Denver IMO.

Looking further into the schedule David Johnson injury with the Arizona Cardinals is huge for the upcoming opponents like us. Carson Palmer looked very similar to our very own Brad Johnson when he made us proud;)

Denvers corners are better than New York's. Tony is much better than Apple. The two duos are similar drc/jj, Talib/Harris

Jenkins has earned my respect after his game against Dez this weekend. Apple is also playing better than I expected so we are not talking about a huge gap in talent.

I disagree on Apple and so do Giant fans if you read their board. He is a bust thus far, and the weakest link of their secondary. We should have went after him more in that game.

Apple had a horrible game, Cowboys specifically targeted him. I expect Dak to be better than wk 1.

Semian played better than I thought he would, and Spiller looked very good. Their WR's are better than NY's that we faced. Don't expect giving up only 3 points .
The Denver D looked good, but it was against SD...I mean the Chargers...LOL..

Protect Dak, and keep to the run, eventually our OL and Zeke can wear them down. I think this is where Rod Smith can be a factor, spell Zeke with Rod, another big RB. Rest Zeke just a bit more then pound them in the 4th quarter, if we are in the lead or a very close game.

Not sure how good LA's defense was to be. Are the any better than ours, or was supposed to be. Ingram though looked be a force though.

I like our chances going into Denver, but now like them with a little more concern. Get to the QB, get him off his game, once again is the game plan. But I like our chances from the NY game results, better than what I liked last year.
