- Somebody in the local Dallas media insinuated to Wade that the PI on Muhammad was a bad call. There are some people who cannot fathom seeing Dallas have one iota of success. I really enjoy the NFL Network, but they were applauding Owens for his no comments after the Buffalo game yesterday while the reporters were trying to goad him. Sadly, this is what happened last year and Owens handled it in pretty much the same fashion. Even worse, the local Dallas media continues to try and goad players and staff.
- Hopefully he's okay and of course he needs to find a way to stay healthy, but we need to get Felix <strong>at least</strong> 15 touches a game. He put a juke move on a DB that fooled him as badly as you'll ever see a starting NFL DB be fooled on. I think we are seeing a really rare home run threat because he's just darn good and consistent. Barry Sanders had a Reggie Jackson type of home run ability (hit the big one or strikeout). Felix has a Albert Pujols type of home run ability (hit homers and hit for average) Felix won't hit the big, exotic home runs like Barry would, but he can do some amazing things.
- I don't hate the guy, but I am looking forward to the end of the Flozell era. Too frustrating. He was a good to great 2nd round pick, had a nice career with us, but it would be nice if Doug Free can step right in come 2010. I think you keep Flo around for the rest of the year and release him. If Free gets hurt, then maybe bring Flo back.
- Hey, no punts have hit the videoboard. Crazy concept, huh. Enjoy your 0-3 start, Mr. Fisher.
- To be negative, Garrett had a rough game. He impressed me the last 6 quarters before this game and I didn't like what I saw today. It's tough when your corners, free safety, Quarterback and O-Coordinator are all inconsistent.
- Romo had a nice game and protected the ball. But if I'm Jason Garrett and Wade Phillips, I'd make it clear I don't want to see any of those cross field passes which are not only suceptible to a pick, but a pick 6. Furthermore, there's not much of a reward if it's completed. And that type of throw is just fundamental Quarterbacking 101.
- Gotta give Hudson Houck credit, he made pass protection adjustments in the second half and the run blocking was great.
- Was it me or were the Panthers special teams intimidated by Dallas' special teams. We've been mostly dominating special teams so far. Kudos to coach Joe D.
- Victor Butler was impressive out there. He blew right by Jeff Otah, considered easily the best RT in the '08 draft. And he did it twice.
- Another great job by the run defense.
- I don't know why Carpenter gets this much playing time. If you want to conserve Brooking, then okay. But come crucial games I'm giving Brooking the nickel backer spot because Carpenter blows.
- I think if I'm Garrett, I learn quite a bit about Romo in this game. It seems that we need to play a ball control offense early on in the game instead of opening things wide open in the first half and then controlling the ball in the second half. Then from there see how Romo's playing, if he's looking pretty good, open it up a bit. If not, keep running the ball, keep playing it safe.
- He gets booed a lot here, but I love Roy E. Williams' play and the next mediot who uses the snide moniker of 'coachable' Roy Williams should be thrown down a flight of stairs. Roy plays hard EVERY DOWN. He blocks like a mother. He's doing everything he's been told to do.
- Martellus needs to step up his play, he's been putrid so far. Perhaps more time working on the jugs machine and less time making stupid YouTube videos would help. Nobody should want to be known as being famous for being famous. That's not what a football player is, that's Paris Hilton.
- Great job by Newman and Mike Jenkins. Newman has some tackling problems early on, but pretty much shut down Steve Smith...AGAIN. Jenkins looked downright good tonight. Big turnaround from the corners, but Hamlin's play is problematic.
- We'll have to see what Felix and Barber's status are. The Broncos seem to have a very good defense and some talent around their QB and the QB just doesn't turn the ball over. Playing in Invesco is never easy. But this is a game where we should have learned some things. Perhaps, Garrett has a better idea of how to use Romo so we can prevent those catastrophic games. Perhaps the staff knows how to use the corners better. Perhaps we can use Victor Butler in different situations. Perhaps we can now start to phase out Carpenter on the defense. Still, if we can come out with a tough win here on the road, then beat a lousy KC team in a sound fashion and then even if we were to lose to Atlanta, at least look tough and organized in the process, then we would have a 4-2 team that starts to understand how to play winning football come December. Still can't look ahead and instead they need to focus on the next game, but looking at the big picture the teams that win come December usually do so because they are make their opponents beat them instead of beating themselves.
- Oh, and did I mention...
