Denver's RBs and TE's had 221 receiving today. None of the LBs can cover and I hate to say this -- Barry Church is a wonderful linebacker, however, he rarely even in the picture in the passing game.

Teams are absolutely tearing the Cowboys defense up the middle due to completely ineffectual LB and Safety play.

Is there anybody else they can trot out there?

That's the problem with this defensive style we have. We absolutely get tore up up the middle, especially since our guys can't get any pressure on the QB. We've seen it in preseason and it is still rearing it's ugly head.

This was exactly how philip rivers burned us last week. Broncos did their homework.

It's the scheme. The linebackers are told to drop deep into coverage. So the middle of the field, 10 yards out from the LOS, will always be open. Opposing teams attack the glaring holes in our zone. It's not rocket surgery.

It's why no one on our D has looked dominant. They are all having down years. Except maybe Selvie...
