we just went against, arguably, the best pass rush in the league. we did horrible on the OL but we won. they can only go uphill from here.
 
With a center that has been on the team for 5 days.

Great win!
 
The O-line is going to gel as the season progresses. Tonight was good experience for them. Despite several mistakes, they did just enough to let Romo work his magic. If they come together before the season is over, it could be really fun in Cowboys Nation.
 
.............and a nice little break before the next game.

Yup, it will take some extra effort to get worse than tonight.

a_minimalist, the new guys played well with a couple of exceptions. Free looks like the weak link.
 
I'll tell you what was great news to me. They actually identified their weakness on defense and kept attacking it. That may seem like common sense, but Dallas has never consistently done that. I'm very pleased to see it!

Did JPP have a sack tonight? Don't remember seeing one,but might have missed it. If not, Young Tyron did the job the hard way. He's learning.

Yes, definitely 1. But, he singlehandedly stopped Murray behind the line of scrimmage with a powerful swim move on Tyron twice. He's still learning and tonight was a good opportunity to learn when going against someone like JPP though.
 
Ummmmm-I thought the oline did pretty well thanks all things considered.

400+ yds of offense against the defending champs on the road is a pass for me.
 
Mental toughness; we just didnt have it last year. best part of this night is seeing the Boys finish a game they were ahead in.:star:

Tyrone will be fine if he learns from his mistakes. He was a much better RT last year than Free has ever been. I expect him to grow into the role. Romo made them look much better than they are.
