Werder reporting from Denver: first started out by saying the Broncos are the most unpredictable team in the NFL :rolleyes:, finished up by quoting Josh McDaniels who said "when playing Tono Romo when he knows what your defense is doing, it's like me playing you in cards and I know all of your cards - we can't let him play like that today."

Merrill Hodge also thinks we end the Broncos no-passing-TDs streak today because of Jason Witten.

ANOTHER reason to run the ball down their throats; who CARES what they're doing? Run it and run it well and it shouldn't matter: seriously

Can't survive on the running game alone. The teams big play rusher is out. Last week this team rushed for over 200 yards and scored 14 points. That isn't going to work long term. And this team can't be trusted to not commit a penalty killing a long drive.

Michael I agree one hundred percent, a bus driver(not the diva) will win this game, they do not have the horses we do on offense or defense. Actually I should also add Special Teams as they are a relevant asset of our arsenal vs the liability it has been in years passed. We play good no turnover football and we win this very easily, their QB would be behind Kitna on our team. I might be a bit hasty with that last comment as not having seen John this year under fire from first string defenses, but I sense this to be true having seen Kyle's body of work. I am anxious to see if any of our rookies bring some utensils to the table this game. Go Cowboys

Watching the Raiders game last week, Russell had WRs running open through out the game, he just couldnt make the throws to take advantage of it.

I get a feeling Bennett is going to be split wide to keep Champ busy so RW and Crayton can get some more favorable match ups. Denver's nickel corner is 5' 9". I would love to see RW get a few cracks at lining up against him.

If they want to load up and stop the run, they can probably do it. At that point Romo has gotta make the throws. We have the skill people to throw all over them.

We won't run for 200 today Romo is going to have to make some plays

I think we'll run for over 100. Tashard Choice ran for nearly a 100 in just over a quarter of full play last week.

If they put 8 in the box, Romo ought to throw for 400.

I hate all the "take minimal chances" talk. Romo needs to make sure he doesnt throw into coverage but he still needs to be Romo and continue to do a lot of the things that has made him the QB he is.

I agree.

Romo is not a "game manager" in the truest sense of the word.

He's a playmaker who needs to manage the game better.

I think that's a perfect was to put it.

Correct.

To eliminate all throws farther than 15 yards because of the threat of a pick is... well...
