"It means the Cowboys’ playbook is varied and creative. And, much to Gibbs’s chagrin, it means they frequently pull linemen..."

"...The Cowboys’ versatility makes them very hard to game plan for (you have to prepare for a lot of different looks), and even harder to predict (their different looks play off of opponents’ in-game adjustments)."
Wait, what?


LOL.

That's awesome.

There's usually signs in preseason that carries over into the regular season. Our first team offense, it just seems to be clicking. I know people will bring up "Lions went 4-0 before going 0-16 in 2008!" - The win and loss record doesn't matter to me in preseason, it's how the ones look. We just look ready. About the only thing that needs cleaned up are the penalties, but that's a league wide thing around this time of year.

If Romo stays healthy, the offense was never going to be the issue. The problem is defense. And remains so to this day.

They will need to win a lot of 41-38 games this year.

Great now if they can only fix their passing game. By that I mean when it's 3rd and 10 don't throw a 5 yard pass. This drives me nuts!!!!

They really do. The defense as well in my opinion. They all just look well prepared. Great to see.

Bad Grandpa was actually pretty decent.

I thought it was funny. When he sharted the wall in the diner my wife laughed so hard my daughters came in to make sure she was OK.

Yes.

I keep reminding myself that it's only PS and that PS does not matter other than for evaluating individual players. But seeing a young QB play well makes it pretty hard to not get a bit excited about the potential. Even though I know better.
gosh It takes an outsider to say that the Dallas coaches are doing a good job.
