Todd Archer answered your questions on Monday about the Cowboys. Some highlights
On Whether (Dez) Bryant can move up on the depth chart this season: Maybe but it's hard to say where he is right now because he hasn't practiced. How fast does he pick up the offense? How will he adjust to the speed of the game? Remember, he didn't play much last year at Okie State because of the suspension. He'll be a factor this year and I think he gets into the starting lineup at some point.
On the offense & offensive line's poor play: It's a struggle right now and the bad part is that it's happening on basic stuff. That's what has the coaches a little miffed. Can they flip a switch for the opener? I don't know. This team doesn't have the track record of, say, an Indianapolis.
On how T.O. can come in and have great chemistry with Romo, but it takes two years for Roy Williams: I've said this too - Romo's best big-play success has been with fast wide receivers. T.O., Terry Glenn and Miles Austin. While the connection between Roy and Romo is better it's still not there all the time.
