With the second preseason game in the books, here are my notes after watching Friday night’s game:
- First and foremost, it was nice to see Tony Romo back on the field and back to his usual play-making self. Romo went 6-8 for 88 yards and didn’t seem to be limited by his cyst removal surgery whatsoever. I thought Romo moved well in the pocket and his arm seemed to be very fresh. The one thing Romo might not be used to is the time he had in the pocket. Twice I thought he rushed himself some when the offensive line had things blocked well. Hopefully this is something that he actually can get used to in 2013.
- Dez Bryant is in regular season form. With three targets, he produced three receptions for 55 yards. The most impressive of which was a broken play in which Dez made a move up field after a Tony Romo pump-fake. Dez caught the passes and proceeded to collide with former Dallas Cowboys corner Mike Jenkins, knocking his helmet off. Dez Bryant is primed to have a fantastic season.
- The Cowboys ran three WRs out on their first nine plays. On all nine plays, Dez Bryant and Dwayne Harris were the outside wide receivers, with Miles Austin in the slot. Was that because they wanted to work on their three wide receiver sets? Or because Escobar and Hanna aren’t ready to become starters? We shall see.
