Well when you've got the fumble recovery rate that we do somebody has to be down there

Remember when Frederick's feet were too slow to get to the 2nd level? Good times.

Yep that was the knock on him coming out of the draft. Struggled with reach blocks and slow to get to the second level. Now you hear all the praise about how excels at those reach blocks and getting to the second level.

I want to see more rushing TDs in the redzone. The more we keep these guys fired up the better. And the back shoulder fade to Dez is getting a little predictable.

One thing I've noticed is that on every running touchdown, multiple Dallas lineman are always downfield, congratulating Murray or Randle 1-2 seconds after they score a TD. That's tenacity, that's impressive, to the point that the offensive line has better pursuit of the running backs than the defensive line does!!!

Of course, I can't be too hard on defensive line, one or more of them were probably pancaked on the play. I'm lovin' this running game!!

(Oh, and I hate the "weird trick" phenomenon that's sweeping the internet, I'm really just making fun of it in my headline.)

It just goes to show the team concept. Even though Randle has been a certified dumb *** for the last three weeks, they still all ran down to high five/back pat him when he scored.

Culture has changed. Nobody would run down there years ago when Felix scored, or Terrell Owens, etc.

Your point was great. I swear I had flashbacks of Emmitt when I saw them do that in a specific game. Forget which one??

Your point deserved a shout out! ;-)

The Seahawks game? Murray's clinching TD? One of the best moments for Cowboys fans in years. Gave me chills to hear the silent 12th man and the "yeah baby! yeah boy!, (muffled mild cursing)"

That was great too. I think I am referring to earlier in game.:)
