Guys some of you need to chill out a little bit. By no means do you judge what is going to happen against the Broncos by the last 2 games. The Cowboys have always struggled against the Lions period even when the Lions were horrible. I can't even remember the last time we beat them by 19 points to be honest. We have also struggled against Mooch in the past.

The Cowboys did not plan to throw the ball in this game you could tell by the play calls. I can only remember one deep pass to Price. They ran the clock out and depended on the defense.

Since Henry has been out the defense has been much more conservative and you can see it is new for some of the guys Ware, Fujita etc. The defense is actually playing good considering the QB has all day to pass. Hopefully Henry is 100% because that will allow this defense to apply more pressure.

The OL of Dallas scares me and we are about to face probably the top blitzing team in the league. Dallas will be forced to open things up in the same way we did against Philly the first time around. Dallas will get a lot of 1 on 1 matchups on the WR's and we will have to burn them. Julius will have to have a big day to help Bledsoe.

Defensively if Henry plays I like our chances against the Denver WR's. This will be the greatest test our DL has had this year. If we stop their run we stop the Broncos. I feel Roy will have to play up in this one and we have got to apply some pressure on Plummer. Remember Dallas has owned Plummer his whole career.

Denver is not the same team playing away. They jump on people quick but the 2nd half is weak.

This game the coaching staff can no longer be conservative expect to see something we have not seen since the first game against Philly.

Dude what are you talking about? Bledsoe had time but the deep plays were not called. How many times have you seen Dallas take a shot down field at the 50 or 40?

Another note if you listen to the BP interview after the game he even talks about it.

Bledsoe had time? Are you nuts? What game were you watching?

I really hate to be negative, but I sure as hell hope the oline is ready or Drew will be having nightmares for a week about Denver LBs. Dallas' line is very inconsistant. I hope they 'pick' this game to show up.

Denver isn't known for its pass rush ability.

True but they like to go 1 on 1 with their CB's and bring everyone else hehe to compensate

I love your guys chances against Denver. Sure they have a nice record and have been playing well but come on ... it's only Jake Plummer. They are due to be taken down a few notches. Kinda like what happened to Carolina today.

Excellent game to look forward to watching this Thursday. Lions and Falcons won't be half bad either.

Would be a great opportunity for Crayton.

They have 8 sacks in the last 2 weeks against immobile QBs. Both games have been since their bye. Maybe they changed things up during their bye?

Sacks are a weak indicator of how effective/ineffective an offensive line is. Just because Bledsoe had an extra .6 seconds to dump it into the ground tacked onto that 1 second the line was giving him doesn't mean he actually had time to throw. And show me the worst offensive line the NFL has ever seen (Houston Texans) and I will still show you a line that gives a QB time for a long pass every now and again. It's a long game: there were calls that had deep men and the line didn't block, and there were also calls that just didn't have a guy going beyond 20 yards. Pegging it all on one or the other is just stupid.

Spin it however you want but sacks are a good indicator in my book. Well the Cowboys are not the Texans so what does that prove?

Whats your problem? We are having a discussion and you can't keep from calling me nuts and stupid why don't you grow up.

Detroit musta watched the Monday Nite film and chose to load up pressure on bledsoe daring Dallas to run on them.

given the results - i doubt Dallas gets the exact same treatment from Denver.

bledsoe's gonna have some opportunities against them. he needs to make the most of them.

the Cowboys can run. the Cowboys can pass. Denver has some tough decisions come thursday.
