What's surprised us (here in Dallas) is the play of the defense so far. It's not the Seahawk's D by any means (hell, the fact they were the 32nd ranked defense last year, "any" improvement was more than welcomed).
The fact the defense is getting more 3-and-out stops (and forcing turnovers) than last year; those things have altered the game plan for the offense from past seasons. So far Garrett's been a whole lot more patient....leaning on DeMarco more....running the ball...burning the clock....and having Romo throw about 40%+ less than previous seasons.
So far it's worked out pretty well.
What you Texans fans will want is a duplicate of the Cowboys' first game (vs the Niners)....multiple turnovers (3 in the red zone that particular game, in fact).
Oh, yeah....check out the Cowboys' young O-line while you're watching the game this Sunday. Those guys are mashing people these days.....pretty damned impressive to say the least.
.
The Cowgirls have been drafting offensive linemen for the last 3-4 years so they are going to run ALL OVER OUR ASSES!
We need a stud middle linebacker...BAD.
D. J. Swag isn't built to take that kind of punishment.
My prediction...Dallas more than 180 yards rushing and we lose...31 - 10. I hope I am wrong.
