News: ESPN: Rolando McClain with solid effort

[NewsBot]

​

Sunday night, McClain was a force, again, for a Cowboys’ defense that was part of a strong effort in a 38-17 victory. "I just had to work out with the trainers before the game and I felt OK," said McClain, who forced a fumble and recorded two tackles.

"I need them," McClain said. "I need to be on the field. They want me on the field, we need everybody. It’s not taking one, it’s taking everybody to finish the game. It was a great team win, it’s not just me, it’s everybody."

The Cowboys needed them to erase what happened in last season’s loss to the Saints. The return meeting was in Arlington, and the Cowboys were aggressive to the ball and were able to contain quarterback Drew Brees and the Saints' high-powered offense.

"It was physical," McClain said of Sunday’s win. "I wasn’t here last year, but we watched the tape from the game and it was embarrassing and everybody knew that. As a defense, we just want to go out and play better."

Pleasant surprise.... After losing Lee during camp I was coming into the season with zero exceptions other than "suckage" from our LB core

but we've been gifted with average to above average play im very pleased

I think Jerry 's gotta work his magic. He doesn't want the spotlight. This is Dallas. As good as he is he can't avoid it without help.

Indeed, I've always felt that we needed to bring that element in the division. Hopefully we stay the course!

I have his DNA. I'm cloning him as soon as I can find a surrogate.

 

[Vintage]

If it wasn't for him quitting, twice, I would buy.

I appreciate his play thus far. But I don't trust him to be a long term solution
