Don't sleep on the Bronco's new 3-4 D. Mike Nolan has his D looking sharp against the run & looking for turnovers.
I'm not buying them yet.

Cleveland, Cincy and Oakland don't offer up anythhing like we can dial up.

Well they are 3-0 and Dallas has to prepare to face this 3-0 team. Winning builds confidence and right now Denver is feeling pretty good about themselves and playing at home is a big help.

Well goodnight Offense. We are going to have to play lights out defense and peice together an offense even against the Broncos and Chiefs.

Unbelievable.

I wish they'd report the severity of the sprain. Anthony Gonzalez has this injury and he's out until week 6, but Steve Breaston and Sidney Rice both got it early this season and didn't miss much of any time.

A little but now you can just cover Witten and stack 8 in the box. There's no other threat.

That's where Miles and Roy come in and hopefully make them pay.

Yeah, but our schedule is Broncos-Chiefs-bye, not Giants-Eagles-Saints. We should be okay for a few weeks.

And we did beat the Giants and play the Steelers to the wire with Choice alone last year.

With the way this defense is playing, it would be extremely foolish to take any opponent lightly.

Besides, anyone that wants to belittle the Denver Broncos' 3-0 record, needs to take a look at our wins.

Our 2 wins came from teams that are now 0-3 and who have either benched their QB or have this early in the Season.

The 2009 Dallas Cowboys have alot to prove and regardless of what people think, if we beat Denver, it will be a quality win.

True. I love Choice but he's not a gamebreaker. It's just alot easier to defend him. Same with Barber. After back to back 200+ rushing yard games they will load the box. I pray that Romo and his recievers are ready to step up their game even more to make them respect the pass also. They probably know that.

If we run for 200+ against the Broncs I will be VERY surprised. But glad:D

Sounds like Jones will be out until Oct. 25th based on ESPN's Matt Mosley.

Sorry if this was already posted.

I hope not, but hopefully he can get treatment and come back sooner.

Here is a nugget on Barber that I just got:

Sept. 30, 2009 - 12:23 p.m.

ESPN's Michael Smith reports that the Cowboys "feel really good" about Marion Barber's (quadriceps) status for Week 4.

Smith reiterates that Barber was close to playing Monday night and wanted to badly, but the Cowboys exercised caution with Felix Jones and Tashard Choice ready to go. They need Barber now that Jones (PCL sprain) is set to miss 1-2 weeks. MBIII may be "eased" back in with Choice playing well, but we'd still expect him to receive 15-18 touches and any goal-line work if he's active.

makes sense if barber is healthy.

Miss the next two and rest through the bye and hopefully find a way to stay on the field after that...maybe?

i am that way now too. It sucks.

When he was just squatting on the sidelines after that big run the other night My first thought was what now?

and it sucks to think that way.

I was so hoping he'd be able to stay injury free this year. Sorry, but I just love to see him run....... Now, I'll be holding my breath everytime he touches the rock.......

Is Felix going to go the way of Julius Jones?
Julius came out with a bang and ended up hurt his first two seasons, limiting his playing time. Now we have another explosive back who can't stay healthy and I think Julius' problem was that he kept getting hurt and changed his play to avoid it.
