They have a stud LT and center but are mediocre at the other 3 spots.

Sounds like what our OL could be in a year or two honestly but we need to go from terrible to mediocre at RG and RT. I think Leary could be passable at LG but we'll see if he can stay on the field.

So...when is Tom Cable coming to Dallas to coach this unit?
 
Seattle has one of the largest coaching staffs in the NFL. That might be where Jerry considers spending a little more cash.

Wait, that's out of his pocket and his own coach can't decide the makeup.

Nevermind.
 
It would be kind of cool if someone just took Golden Tate's head off his body. That'd be nice.
 
The two games last night seemed weird.

This is looking like two good teams going at it like a real game.
 
Lacy might be a "beast" but he has no room to run.
 
Graham Harrell looks like a total turd.

And we are bitching about Kyle Orton?

They've got Vince Young backing him up.
 
I know it's not pronounced that way, but being a grown man named Christine had to be tough
 
Seattle's DL is kicking the shit out of Green Bay right now.

Depth will do that.
 
Soooo our decision not to draft Brady Quuinn wasn't the worst we've ever made.
 
Mike McCarthy vs Chip Kelly in a pie eating contest...

I have Chip by a slice
 
Doug Free is someone to watch tonight

ARLINGTON, Texas -- We've got five things to watch in the Cowboys' fourth preseason game Saturday night against the Cincinnati Bengals at AT&T Stadium.

1. Doug Free. With the offensive line dealing with health issues in the interior and some ineffective play, the right tackle moves to the right guard spot with the first-team offense. Free has never played guard in the NFL, college or high school. He started working at guard this week at Valley Ranch and one team official said he looked pretty good. We'll see how he performs against the Bengals front of Domata Peko and Geno Atkins.

2. First-team offense. With Tony Romo at the helm this preseason, the offense has scored three points. They've turned the ball over twice and had a field goal blocked. Romo will stay on the field for the entire first half, and if things go badly again, expect him to get a series in the third quarter. The Cowboys have produced some positive plays with Dez Bryant and Miles Austin but Jason Witten doesn't have a catch in the preseason. Expect DeMarco Murray to get at least five or six carries in this game.

3. George Selvie. The free agent defensive end came on strong in the Hall of Fame game, but has slowed down since. If Anthony Spencer isn't ready for the regular season opener against the New York Giants, Selvie will start at end. This will be his most significant snaps since the first preseason game, and he needs to show some consistency.

4. B.W. Webb. The rookie cornerback is athletic and smart, but still a rookie. He's made some mistakes in pass coverage and his status isn't in question because the Cowboys like his upside. However, Webb needs to show some improvement here and will get plenty of playing time with Morris Claiborne out with a sore knee.

5. Special teams. We've got two muffed punts, two penalties on punt returners, a blocked field goal and a 51-yard kickoff return allowed by the special teams unit. It hasn't been a smooth summer for Rich Bisaccia's group. He's mixing and matching personnel and he wants to use starters on these units, but he's not afraid to play rookies. Regardless, this group has to play better.
