SO BEFORE THE GAME STARTS...........
- Thread starter TAY CAPONE1
- Start date
everyone here is going to talk shit about the cowboys, so i expect about 90% of the replies in this thread will be some anti-cowboys statements.
as a cowboys fan myself, i'm not gonna be on some unrealistic shit and predict that we'll win the super bowl, because i know the cowboys have a lot of room for improvement. i don't even have high expectations for them this season, mainly due to the immense failure of a season that they had last year.
i think the offense has done alright so far, and the young offensive line, with two rookie starters (tyron smith/bill nagy), has done better than i expected. the only problem the offense has right now is getting the running game going. i don't know if felix jones has been hesitant due to his sprained shoulder, but the running game has been almost non-existent.
the defense has played well so far in the two games this year, a lot better than i expected. i think they'll play better after they get a better understanding of rob ryan's defense, and as soon as cornerbacks terence newman/orlando scandrick/mike jenkins are fully healthy.
so far with the two games this season...i honestly thought they were going to get destroyed by the jets, but up until the 4th quarter, the cowboys actually competed. i'm not gonna sit here and address some moral victory saying we almost won, because the truth is, it's either you win or lose, and the cowboys ended up losing a game which they could've won. as for the game vs. the 49ers, although they did win, they could've played a lot better. the 49ers did a good job of getting tony romo out of rhythm with his receivers, especially miles austin. the cowboys didn't get anything going until just after the 2 minute warning in the 2nd quarter.

The Cowboys are now my 3rd favorite team (behind the Raiders and Bears) mayne (thanks to Madden 12). Without Tony Romo my record would be terrible. Give Romo some credit, playing with a cracked rib and punctured lung proves how tough he is. He brought the team back against the 49ers in OT last week, when he could have just laid it down for a few weeks until his injury healed.
