It's so refreshing to see young talented players come into a system and flourish. This guy has a real future in Dallas. When he stepped into an elevated role last night, the defense actually got better. His awareness and style reminds me of a Kevin Smith type out there. Very dangerous because his fundamentals are solidly coupled with great area awareness.

Much credit should go the the coordinators for the new level of consistency that's on display early this year. Marinelli really has that defense counting on each other and utilizing an element of trust previously undiscovered. Guys on the defense appear to be foregoing personal for team. Man. That gets me so amped!

Love that Sterling Moore!!!

I liked Moore's play, he played very well. But I wouldn't say the defense got better. As Mo went out early. So hard to say.
I had always liked morre, and his first few years, I was thinknig why are they messing with this guy, sign him, release him, back and forth.
Now he will be a vital part of the defense without Mo. so hope he lives up to it now more than ever. I think he will.

Wilcox scares me too. We need to find an All-Pro safety pretty soon. That would be huge on this team.

He was smoked on that last TD drive that the Saints had. That long pass play. He looks like he has lead feet. And he almost fumbled away that TO they had.

Moore did a good job on Graham.

Glad he is our 3rd corner.

Got to love depth at key positions.

Wilcox played well overall, just made a few bad decisions but he seems to be getting better.

As for Moore, I am glad the Cowboys have him. Guy can flat out play.

I'd love to see Asante Samuel get a shot. That guy jumps routes like it's nobody's business. I'd even slide Moore to FS. Imagine Scan and Samuel both jumping routes. It does wonders!!!! Either way, proud of everyone.

The way he played last year in training camp and then again after got re-signed later in the season makes me wonder what he did to get cut in the first place. He may have been our best corner in training camp last year.

With Moore playing in place of Claiborne, I think it's a case of addition by subtraction.

I think Claiborne played based solely on his pedigree and the draft investment made in him while all Moore does is make plays.

Although it sounds harsh, I think this defense will be better off with Moore instead of Claiborne.

The defense did get better when Mo went out early and was replaced by Moore. I think we should put him in on FS as well. I too don't see anything special with Wilcox. Why do we keep drafting projects to fill in on the safety position?

you know moore has been in the league for 5 years and was on the street the last two years in a row. maybe it might be a bit to early to give up on wilcox
we got moore because he was given up on too soon

Well Im basing my judgement on what I Dallas doing with the Safety position. So far they've been trying to fill that position with projects from small schools. Wilcox is gifted athletically and seems to be cut from the same cloth as all the other safeties we drafted. Thats why I always thought that we should have picked Barron over Mo. This system needs a true ball hawking safety badly not projects.
