I think a major strength of the current defensive coaching staff is that they understand the kind of player that best fits their defensive scheme. That's huge. If you really know what kind of players will work in the scheme, you have a chance of finding them. This was one of Parcell's...

I think there's a decent chance that RG3 will return to form as the season continues. If he does, the Redskins will be a threat again. And a better offense will help their defense. But who knows?

Must have been Ratliff. :YES

Anybody remember several weeks ago when Spencer made some sort of strange cryptic comment to reporters? About his injury, he said something to the effect that "the Cowboys know what's really happening." At the time it sounded like he might have been blaming trainers, but I don't recall the...

#15 seems very reasonable to me. I know the rest of the NFC East has been rather bad so far, but at least one of them will rise from the ashes to semi-respectability. My guess is it'll be the Redskins.

I like Harris and wouldn't mind him getting more snaps ... from Austin. Murray ... sometimes it looks like he falls down prematurely to protect the ball. It's like he breaks a long run, defenders catch up and try to force a fumble, and Murray goes down. In any event, it looks odd when it happens.

Nice write-up, dbair.

And then there is the other side of it. After the Chiefs game, I thought Romo was washed up. Then all of a sudden, yesterday, he starts throwing darts. He had several very nice throws. The one to Harris was downright remarkable. It was a perfect throw to a well covered receiver.

You see right through me, don't you?

Yeah, that break up in the end zone was a very nice play.

Yeah, Romo really did look good. That TD to Harris was a great throw... impressive. I like how the team was playing all out, until the whistle, swarming .... this is something new from a Ginger team. I hope they can sustain it.

Looks like I'm late to the party. I'll pick the Rams and hope I'm wrong. The Rams score points. So far, the Cowboys' offense hasn't done much scoring.

Bernadeau is more versatile in his medocrity than Costa. I'm not sure if that's good or bad. (And somehow Arkin, ever below the radar, somehow continues to hold a roster spot.)

Right now, this is really about who is active for games. If Bernadeau can cover at center, and Costa doesn't dress ... it'll be interesting to see who the Cowboys suit up instead (Beasley?, a DL or DB?).

Costa = dead man walking.

The Washington Snyders I like it.

He did say that it was a strategy to keep it close ... but I think what he meant to say (and said earlier) was that the team is playing more conservatively (to protect Romo) and that conservative approach has the effect of keeping games close. I'm not sure I buy it, though. First off, it...

Those last 7 paragraphs are pretty good, particularly the final 3. The one thing that the author didn't do is demonstrate that the Cowboys have had a greater number of close games than most other NFL teams over the past couple of seasons. That would have made for a stronger argument. But I...

LOL

Romo's drop off is what concerns me. He hasn't looked right since last season. If he's becoming what Danny White and Troy Aikman were during their final year or two with the team, much worse days are ahead. The current status isn't good. It is disheartening to think it'll get much worse...
