Scrimmage observtions
**Let’s remember the scrimmage statistics were unofficial and go from there …
For the quarterbacks: Drew Bledsoe was 9-of-18 for 73 yards; Tony Romo was 8-of-18 for 86 yards, Drew Henson was 12-of-16 for 150 yards. Romo and Henson led two touchdown drives and one field goal drive apiece, while Bledsoe directed two drives that ended in field goals.
For the running backs: Julius Jones was nine for 43 yards; Marion Barber was eight for 70. He also had a 40-yard catch.
Sacks: Chris Canty two, Bobby Carpenter two, Greg Ellis one, DeMarcus Ware one, John Saldi one.
**Wide receiver Terry Glenn did not appear to play much after the opening series. Patrick Crayton and Terrance Copper took most of the turns with the first team.
**Smart play by center Al Johnson to snap the ball once rookie defensive end Jason Hatcher jumped off-side. Marc Colombo and Andre Gurode worked with the first team line the whole scrimmage at right tackle and center, while Rob Petitti and Flozell Adams rotated at left tackle.
**On an 11-yard gain Julius Jones lost his right Under Armor cleat. Jones looked definitive as he hit the hole on a number of runs.
**Linebacker Ricky Boiman was lectured by Parcells after flinging tight end Ryan Hannam to the ground. The defense was supposed to bring it, but not finish the tackles during the scrimmage.
**Cornerback Terence Newman provided one of the two collisions of the day when he broke up a Bledsoe-to-Copper pass with a blindside hit, and safety Keith Davis had the other when he broke through the line to pop Keylon Kincade for a 5-yard loss.
**Tight end Tony Curtis has been up and down during camp, but Saturday was an up day. He had a nice grab of a Romo pass down the seam for 27 yards just over linebacker Ryan Fowler.
**As Parcells put the players through post-scrimmage sprints, he gave Flozell Adams, recovering from knee surgery, a little bit of a head start in a group with other offensive and defensive linemen.

Running game is OK
Julius Jones and and Marion Barber had some decent runs during the scrimmage.
But in a key reserve running back battle, Tyson Thompson and Keylon Kincade each had one dropped pass.
When Kincade dropped his pass, Parcells, who I think likes Keylon, said, "come on Keylon."
Kincade and Thompson bounced back to have some good runs.

Scrimmage stuff
Greg Ellis had the first sack and Terence Newman made a nifty play, tipping a Drew Bledsoe pass away on the first series.
Chris Canty was credited with a sack and had a good hit on Julius Jones.
On Tony Romo's first series, he looked pretty good, rolling to his right and completing a five-yard pass to tight end Tony Curtis.
On a third and five, Romo had a potential first down pass dropped by running back Keylon Kincade. It forced the offense to settle for a 45-yard field goal.
I saw a nice one-handed grab by tight end Ryan Hannam from a Drew Henson pass.
Romo, with a short pump fake, threw incomplete on a sideline pass to Terrance Copper.
Tyson Thompson dropped a pass after Henson beat the pressure with a throw over the middle.
Kicker Shaun Suisham was short and wide right on a 50-yard attempt.
On a flea-flicker, tight end Anthony Fasano missed his block on Al Singleton, then was called for holding.
First round pick, linebacker Bobby Carpenter showed good pursuit on a screen pass to Julius Jones.
After a long run by Marion Barber, who was several steps out of bounds, safety Keith Davis knocked him down, resulting in a penalty.
