How good is the O-Line really?

Well we are going to find out with Orton out there. He's nowhere near as mobile as Romo is.

Come on OL keep it together.

We're about to find out.

Orton doesn't have the pocket awareness or mobility that Romo has.

They're improved from last year to be sure...let's hope it's enough.

Neither does Peyton but he releases the ball right away. Romo likes to hold on to the ball. Just being nifty doesn't mean you make the OL look better than it really is. Peyton would make our OL look All-Pro.

No doubt that the Oline is better than last year.
My guess is that they are about middle of the pack now vs near the bottom.
They run block pretty well.
So feed Murray the rock and protect our putrid defense.

In case you haven't noticed the offensive line has given Romo plenty of time to throw the ball. Orton will be fine.

He routinely has a guy coming free at him.

This. I predict alot of 3 step drops, slants, screens, quick crossing routes.

Not really. During a blitz perhaps but not routinely. Like a previous poster said Romo does hold on a little too long sometimes.

It's "serviceable". Way better than last year, but not good-great. Just average.
