IRVING, Texas – Cowboys defensive tackle Jason Hatcher was not happy seeing quarterback Tony Romo sandwiched between two Giants pass rushers Sunday night.

"I was mad," Hatcher said Monday. "We've got to do a better job of blocking for him. We need that guy. He's a great quarterback. If he goes down, the team is going to go down. We need to do a better job of protecting him. That's what I was thinking."

"I told them last night, just put me in there - I'll cut somebody," Hatcher said. "We need that guy. We don't need him getting banged up at all."

Hatcher was so upset when the Giants sandwiched Romo that he volunteered to take snaps on OL. Probably never going to happen but you have to love that in a player.

Well, now. Seriously, though, I think those Giants aren't shy about rolling up on our guys, and I think they make a point of trying to batter Romo. Not just in a get-the-QB kind of way, but in a take-him-out kind of way. It's about time we get chippier with that crowd over there. Especially now that Jacobs is back.

I'll always remember in the Giants playoff game when Romo was taking a pounding, there were plays where they'd rock Romo after he had released the ball and as Tuck and Osi were getting up off him, they'd had this crap eating grins on their faces. They enjoyed beating Romo up and it's our job to do something about it but man did I hate those guys in that moment.

I still remember Kevin Gogan going after Clyde Simmons after he belted Aikman.

I would have cut blocked both those guys in retaliation. The Cowboys need to let them know that payback is a *****.

To hear Hatcher talk...and this isn't the first comment like this I've heard from him, that attitude is changing, quickly, in Dallas. I'm sort of loving it, assuming it plays out that way on the field this weekend. This is starting to feel like a statement game this week.

That's the attitude that'll spread through the locker room. I love the motivation he plays with.

Yup. I'm not for dirty play but look how the top teams in the NFC stand up for each other and don't take crap.

Cut blocks are actually legal, DL hate it though. So if the gnats pull that crap they need to put a stop to it.

This team needs more players with the same attitude as Jason Hatcher. One thing I miss more than anything is this type of player on the Dallas Cowboys.

Bravo for Jason Hatcher.

Great attitude; having that hit the media isn't so great. I'm sure Orton loves the confidence.
