Went to the Sunday practices. Just a few quick thoughts.
• Romo looked sharp and accurate the whole day. I enjoy watching him.
• Austin looks explosive and to me is the best WR on the field at this point. He looked great on the deep middle slants. He is becoming a superstar and a fan favorite. He gets huge ovations.
• Afternoon practice was so packed had to get crappy seats up at the top. Oddly, after about 30-45 minutes into practice half the crowd left.
• Jenkins looks great. I haven’t noticed any drop off.
• Dez Bryant looks extremely athletic. I didn’t see him drop a single pass. Although to me he seems to run half-speed at times and tries a little too hard to make the catch look impressive. Maybe he makes it look so effortless it appears that way. Either way, he is fun to watch.
• First team D-fense vs the 2nd string with Kitna is brutal to watch. Kitna would have been killed if it was a real game. They had no answer for the pass-rush.
• Kitna does not impress me. He threw an INT during a drill with no pass rush. I know he is the backup and an upgrade over what we had last year, but he still worries me if he has to play.
• The Cowboys offense seems to be doing some presnap moving that i am not sure i have seen before. They will take two TEs and shift them to the other side. They did this a number of times, not sure if Romo is simply flipping the play or if it’s by design.
• There were 4 straight plays where the offense false started and the defense jumped offsides. These were huge problems last year and showed its ugly head again for a few moments. I would have sent the entire team to run a lap.
• Doug Free seems to be getting alot of chipping help. I rewatched a few videos and he always seems to have someone helping.
• Williams, Crayton, O-Tree, Hurd, Holley - they all looked good. This is one very talented WR core. I don’t see any other WRs making the team.
• Got signatures from Hurd and Hodge. Told Hurd “this is your year, buddie” his response, ”Has to be...has to be”. He left a few minutes later saying he had to go lift. The dudes arms are massive in person. I still think he has alot of talent and can be a very good WR in this league.
• After practice noticed Witten working with the other TEs. (Bennett was MIA, i could never locate him). Phillips looks good and i think could make a run at a starting job.
• Cowboys finally used a flea flicker! Here is that play with my commentary: [youtube]pRBZnrNePLM[/youtube]
