We looked like a team that didn't play much in the PS. We were not ready for the fight.

Thought the kicks, and the coverage on Harris was outstanding! Rich took heat all PS, but pulled it off. Although Dunbar returning kicks needs to end now!! He sucks.

Thought Kyle Wilber might have played his best game as a cowboy.

Tyron was amazing!

For Dez to come out and get dehydrated again was ridiculous IMO. He has to learn to control himself. He missed all of spring ball, and PS and it showed that he's not superman.

We still have no passrush. I wouldn't be scared of anybody on our line outside of Crawford. Losing Gregory is huge.

I'm not sure Street will ever do anything with this club. We made a mistake in not drafting/attaining more WR's IMO.

Thought Wilcox had an outstanding game.

I think Michael needs to get up to speed fast as I have no confidence at all in our RB's out side of catching. I did feel better with Dmac in game, but he sucks at getting tough yards.

The short passing game looked like Cally calling plays again. If that's our plan it's going to be a lonnnnng year!

The call on the non catch from the TE for them was an awful missed call by the refs! That cost us our final challenge and could have made a huge difference. That was HS work there.

Does anybody else want to smack OBJ in the face or is it just me? :)

Man. The pressure was there. You can't sack the QB with two step drops and release. With that said....Crawford still got one.

+1 for you for mentioning Tyron.

BEST tackle in the league. Hands down. Wow. He mean.

The pressure was there until Gregory left. Now it's back to last year except no Selvie this go around. We need to get Edwards back now.

Tryon is a man. Not sure anybody can handle him.

Dez is a fool. Runs around pre game and during the game screaming and jumping up and down and forgets to drink enough water. So he gets tired and breaks his foot. The guy simply cant keep his mouth shut. Now I guess he can scream from the sidelines for 6 weeks and run onto the field and get punched in the face. LOL

If it wasnt for Dez injury, I would have done a Jimmy J and cut him as a message to the rest of the team. Ex Giant Nicks might be worth a tire kick.

Gregory left late in the game.

The line was a little gassed. To be expected for the first game and it was evident as the Giants suddenly were running effectively on their last scoring drive.

With that said.....the 'Rushmen' approach needs tweaked.

Yep. Same could be said for Mincy, but we lost Gregory so what can you do?

I actually like the idea Nicks. Great idea!

What's funny about anything you said? This is a Cowboys fan site.

Dunbar did ok on kicks. But he is not as explosive as Lucky is as a KR. Or maybe Gmen ST did a good job which is also likely and there were no holes there.

My observation is that Bailey is clutch with the extra points. I never worried so much about an extra point kick than the last one.

Regarding the short passes, this play calling is no where near Callahan. With Callahan, if it was 3rd and 10, the routes will be 5 or 6 yards short. Yes, Romo did a lot of dink and dunks, but when it was 3rd down, Romo threw to where the receiver was passed the first down marker.

Wut?

So now the broken foot is because he was tired from running around before the game and getting dehydrated?

He had what 29 passes by halftime? Not good unless it was just for one game.

The defense looked gasped an underwhelming. Alot like last year....not much difference at this point. Hopefully Hardy will make a difference when he returns. What is wrong with the WR corp, horrible night all around. Think it will take a few games for this team to jell. Until then it's hold on an hope for the best.

It needs Hardy
