Dominating with a Few Kinks Again
I need to start off by asking you a question:
How many Giant, Commander, and Eagle fans was murmuring “Ah, Crap!” when they saw Felix Jones make the run he made?
To me, that was the play that broke the game open. Aided by beautiful blocking from Witten, Owens and the offensive line, when Felix was one on one with the defensive back, you KNEW the defender had NO chance! Oh my goodness! This kid is going to be special. Teamed up with Marion the Barbarian, Dallas will have a more balanced offense. That is a scary thought for the opponents and their fans.
What is even scarier is the Cowboys did not even come close to playing their best game. They were fairly inept on both offense and defense. There were dropped passes and missed tackles. I saw more confusion with both units from both sides of the ball. I have no idea what happened on Driver’s 50-yard sideline catch. Someone blew an assignment though. Romo, once again, threw a horrible pass in the red zone. There were a plethora of mistakes out there for the team wearing silver and blue.
In spite of these mistakes, the short week, and on the road to a hostile environment where this franchise had never won before, the Dallas Cowboys absolutely dominated one of the best teams in the league. This team is loaded boys and girls.
Hey, how about some props to Courtney Brown. He was inactive for the first two weeks. When Roy Williams went down, Brown, along with Watkins, came in and did a pretty nice job. This is especially true when you take in consideration the quality of the opponents on their home turf.
How many times did we see Rodgers have to hold the ball? Those young pups in the secondary were doing their job.
Probably the one unit on the Cowboys that had the best game might have been the offensive line. Yeah, they gave up a couple of sacks; they are not a perfect unit. However, when you amass over 200 yards rushing, you are dominating. The only negative running play was when Jenkins flew into the backfield and tackled Felix Jones. That was a near impossible task for Bennett to block as Jenkins was lined up inside him and continued to stunt inside. It was just an excellent play call by the Packers defensive coordinator. They are professionals also.
I just loved how the Cowboys basically played a C+ game yet went into Lambeau Field and throttled the cheeseheads!
Bring on the Commanders!
