[waving monkey]

Coleman makes to 53 and I am surprised but happy
I wonder about Bishop?

I really like Coleman, I think he will have a big year !!!

 

[jazzcat22]

Add Chris Jones to the list, I think he punted well. Even the backup P Hornsey had some decent punts.
Glad to see Brinkley make some plays, though later in the game.
Swaim seems to make some plays,coho ugh late in games too. But that's where he gets his chances. But he is making plays.

 

[lane]

Beasley as a return guy.

I just feel he will get jacked up though..he's our little secret 3rd down conversion machine.

 

[Doc50]

Beasley as a return guy.

As others have said, I hate to see Beas risking injury on ST, but maybe the FO has seen enough of Lucky to try and shelve him on the PS until he adds a couple of pounds.

Not confident about ST - we really need to put that team together this week. The cuts on Monday and Tuesday will be those who have failed to shine at their primary position, have no position flex, and have failed at ST.

 

[lane]

One thing that is definitely for real...we got us some depth on the defense where we can rotate fresh bodies to wreak havoc all day long.

We are going to be fun to watch this year for sure.

 

[sideon]

There are 2 teams in our division who i know have to be kicking themselves for passing on Gregory. When was the last time we've seen this kind of pass rush?

I read recently that Lucky is up to 180 lbs -- not sure if it's actually true or not since it's something that often gets erroneously reported. He was supposedly 169 when he first arrived with Dallas and added that much weight. Anyhow, Beasley looked good tonight returning that punt but I'd agree that putting him in harm's way like that may not be in the team's best interest.

Beasley is our 3rd receiver and won't play that many snaps in a game.

Also, teams use their 3rd receivers all the time to return punts.

If he can do it then let him.

The way he is built and as elusive as he is I wouldn't worry about him taking big shots

Sounds reasonable but the team is likely to use him much less sparingly than in the past. It's strictly up to the staff to decide such things though, so what we think won't amount to diddly. As productive has he is, it should be interesting to see what they ultimately decide to do regarding that option, tho. He looked good doing that tonight, that's for sure.

As long as he signals fair catch in time...i really don't want our secret weapon taken out by an Eagle..

 

[muck4doo]

I was focused on Claiborne and Jones tonight. They both seemed to do okay. Did anyone see anything I may have missed?

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

Yea I'd rather Dunbar back there.

 

[Pessimist_cowboy]

i thought Morris Claiborne played really well.

 

[Boyzmamacita]

Brinkley must've really had a good game. OP mentioned him twice.

 

[Knotamus]

Darren McFadden should be added to this list. 4 carries for 37 yards ain't too shabby. He looked good running the ball and seemed decisive picking his running lanes. Although he will still split carries in order to keep both himself and Randle fresh, McFadden is going to have a field day behind our OL. LOL, I cant wait to hear the garbage from the doubters as to why he had a good game. I'm sure it'll sound something like this... "it's just preseason" or "it's a small sample size"... Whatever. Their will be a lot of people eating crow on the site this year. The guy is going to ball out. And I couldn't be happier for him. #GoCowboys!

 

[bark]

Zack Marin should be added to this list. The o line isn't the same without him in there and it showed last nt

Update: He is on the list as Dmc. My fault for not catching it.
