The sad thing is, if Romo were playing and converting third downs like last year... this year's line would be wearing teams out even more than they did last year.

I underestimated Collins and how dominant he can be. Having Smith, Collins, Fredrick, Martin side-by-side would just be killing defenses. I mean, they are already even with the terrible 3rd down conversion rate... but if the team just converted a few more each game, defenses would be waving the white flag by the end of the 3rd quarter.

Teams better pray Dallas doesn't sneak into the playoffs.

That, they will do. A Dallas playoff team won't be on anyone's wish list.

I have been telling people this for weeks now. If Dallas wins the Division with Romo; teams should be concern.

Oh yeah, which is why beating Philly would be huge. This puts us at 3-1 in the division with Romo back to play WSH both times.

Especially if we have to play outdoors. The cold weather is tailor made for ground and bound.

Collins isn't lying when he says he can play anywhere. Don't believe the hype of he's an OG only. He would be a pro bowl RT and he could make the necessary adjustments to play the left side or center in a pinch.

Dude's a blue chipper. You know you have some special players when you're not sure if Zack Martin is even your best G on the roster let alone your best offensive lineman.

You seriously think Collins is better than Martin? Long way to go technique wise. He is better than I think any of us expected him to be at this point though.

Unfortunately, teams can have OLinemen that are 90% of the Cowboys players and come out ahead:
100 + 100 + 100 + 100 + 0 = 400

90 + 90 + 90 + 90 + 90 = 450

The end might be near because I agree with this post...
