I want to say first and foremost props to the people who made the bold prediction Dallas would win. Hos you made a ballsy post and the Boys didn't let you down :)

Offense:
1) Every week I am justified in buying a Romo jersey!!!!!
2) OL played great and by the 2nd half you could tell the Colts DL was wearing down.
3) Great game from all the WR's TO in the first half and TG in the 2nd. It was great to see TG and Romo start to get some chemistry.
4) Major props to JuJo and Barber while I thought they would have a bigger day it was in the Colts plan to stop the run. They were stacking the box all game long.
5) I was so mad that BP was not changing things up but in the second half he saw a weakness with the coverage on TG and exploited it.

Defense:
1) Ware had his best game ever!
2) As someone else pointed out this was by far the best our LB's have played together all year long.
3) I knew Burnett would be a factor in this game. Did anyone notice how well he covered Clark? This kid is simple outstanding in the Nickle.
4) Ratliff, Hatcher, Spears and the DL in general played outstanding.
5) The secondary made some mistakes but they played hard. I want to give credit to Roy for some big plays. I really like Glenn and wish they would play him more Henry scares me.

Special Teams:
1) Fowler is a playmaker.
2) Austin can run.
3) McBriar had a nice game.
4) Vandy is struggling up stairs.

On special teams, I just don't wanna see Newman returning kicks ever again for any reason.

I don't think Vanderjagt makes it to the Tampa game.

Yeah that hit on TNew was scary.

Wouldn't surprise me if Vandy is benched.

I think Vandy gets cut. He hardly took part in training camp, cost the Cowboys a preseason game, and very well could have cost them todays game. Wouldn't surprise me at all if Parcells has had enough.

Was Glen inactive in the first half? Kidding of course, but he had nothing thrown his way, and all of a sudden he is in on every play. I guess it was some good adjustments at halftime to get him involved!

Yeah is was a nice job by the coaches.

I think our depth won us the game the Colts looked tired there at the end.

DL in general indeed. Do not forget about Big Ferg in the middle. Jason Ferguson has been a beast for us this year and continues to do so.

I was worried based on his performance last season but he really must be a guy who needs a lot of reps and w/out La'Roi Glover (who also played a great game today) Fergy has stepped up huge and is a major cog in our defense.

He has been our anchor for sure.

AS hard as it for most teams to get to Manning, I agree, the d-line played their best complete game and had some sort of pressure on nearly every series. Where the heck has it been for the 1st half of the year?!
If that is a tast of things to come, this defense really can be dominating.
