Hmmm. Does he have any more cousins?

Exactly. That game was not as close as the score. Philly pretty much made 1 play on offense. They were thoroughly dominated.Disagree. You roll up a 4 to 1 yardage advantage like Seattle did, you kind of kicked their ass.
That's true. Not sure what his deal is this year, but he did like he was getting on track until Seattle.He had a couple good games in a row (One against us) but for most of the season McCoy has been terrible.
The biggest key to protecting Romo against a blitz happy team is to stay out of 2nd or 3rd and long as much as possible. If they stuff the run we will be in long yardage situations. If we loosen them up with the pass on 1st or 2nd early we will run better. Which means we can protect Romo better.I don't think the offenser will have any problems if they protect Romo. My concerns are 2 fold. The pass defense of Dallas is to vunerable if there is no heat on Sanchez. The pass rush has been absent. Even though everyone thinks the key will be the running game on either side, in my view the team who gives the best protection to their QB Wiil win the game.
Seattle's offense isn't particularly impressive but they rolled up over 400 yards. On the road.Well we know Kelly doesn't care about TOP...
Maybe I should clarify that I was more impressed with Philly's defense. By my eye test, they were extremely physical. Because yeah, on offense, Sanchez sucks and can wreck almost any offense.
And Philly was still an easy dropped pick-six from making it a FG game with five or six minutes left.
May be hard to do if Dallas opens every series with a running play against a stacked defense. It's going to take a little imagination on Linehans part for offensive game planning. Right now Dallas is too predictable.The biggest key to protecting Romo against a blitz happy team is to stay out of 2nd or 3rd and long as much as possible.

The worst is we will run on first and second down and even if we create a 3rd and 3 or a 3rd and 4 we will suddenly go shotgun with no RB. We don't even keep the threat of a running play alive if we got stopped running the ball on first and second down. I'd like to see us run the ball on third down a little more even when it isn't a 3rd and 1. We average over 5 yards per run and should be able to still keep the defense honest even on third down.May be hard to do if Dallas opens every series with a running play against a stacked defense.

That average doesn't hold up with stacked defenses like Philly. I think Dallas got about 80 rushing yards in the llast meeting.The worst is we will run on first and second down and even if we create a 3rd and 3 or a 3rd and 4 we will suddenly go shotgun with no RB.

That's when his oline was not in tact. They are back healthy, and the running game has improved accordingly.He had a couple good games in a row (One against us) but for most of the season McCoy has been terrible.
No but my point is the one time the defense isn't stacking our run is on third down regardless of the distance. It's because everyone in the stadium and watching TV knows that after we failed on first and second down to get a first by running the ball and then go to a shotgun on third down that there is no chance we run the ball. This makes it extremely difficult to convert on those third downs by passing the ball.That average doesn't hold up with stacked defenses like Philly.

I think Dallas needs to be completely unpredictable at times to keep Philly's defense off guard and conventional.No but my point is the one time the defense isn't stacking our run is on third down regardless of the distance.

If a ten point win is a beatdown, what do you call the thing Philly put on us?Seattle's offense isn't particularly impressive but they rolled up over 400 yards. On the road.
It was a beatdown.
Dammit, I was hoping it was somebody we had a chance to beat...LeSean, dork.
