IRVING, Texas -- Dez Bryant knows better than to expect any favors from his old friend Rob Ryan. Bryant calls Ryan “one of my favorites to this day,” but the Pro Bowl receiver certainly didn’t enjoy himself the last time he saw the former Dallas Cowboys defensive coordinator. Ryan schemed to make Bryant a nonfactor in the New Orleans Saints' rout over the Cowboys last season, using a variety of double teams to hold Bryant to one catch for 44 yards.

Fisher's second tweet is a little confusing to me. I guess it means Dez was responding to someone else's tweet about his tweet. Sometimes Twitter throws me off.

I hear ya Dez, but we need the other receiving threats to take advantage if you're doubled. Especially against a QB like Brees. The run heavy emphasis should still maintain, and Romo is looking better every week, so this aspect should be incorported pretty soon and hopefully shows its head this week. We need TW/Witten to have a big game if/when Dez is doubled. Murray will get his either way considering the OL.

If we can control the clock I'm all for running. Brees can't throw if he doesn't have the ball.

Which is why he is our biggest threat. He creates for others.

Yeah, I didn't write too clearly there. I was more saying that run/pass play won't be dictated by the double coverage (that specific play), or we seem reluctant to audible to runs. In a shootout atmosphere in game like NO, the passing game will have to step up as well. Ideally, it would be Murray all day everyday if it results in wins, but this D hasn't played a real QB yet either.
