Like everything football related, more wins will put things in perspective. Just as the Colts, Eagles, (insert team that's been winning for last few years here) have been the darlings of the analysts, teams like the Redskins, Texans, Bengals, etc. have become the dogs. Can't change history - but future wins will change everything.

It's funny because Madden was gushing about Ware on one play where Samuels was totally shutting him down... I was like c'mon give Samuels some props!
He did say that Samuels was doing a good job, but was it just me or were Michaels and Madden in love with the Cowboys all night long??
I only saw the last 5 minutes of the game and I was already sick of cowboys this, cowboys that.

I knew Samuals totally owned Ware when they showed a slow-mo of Betts running past the two of them locked up on the left side. Gibbs normally makes Betts chip the end as he runs out to help the lineman. Betts did not even try.
That only happens when Samuals has gone to the huddle and says he does not need any help.
OWNED!

Samuels looked real good except for that one WR screen where he over ran his blocking zone and completely whiffed on Dat Nyugen coming in and taking the play down. That play could have been a big gainer if not for that.
Good point, that was a very weak (non) block. Otherwise, Samuels silenced Demarcus Ware all night, even when Michaels and Madden made all the noise for him.
While the Cowboys were throwing a lot of corner blitzes, Marcus Spears and Greg Ellis combined for a half-sack, and Chris Canty had another. Whether it was 8 in the box or corner blitzes, I'd still like to see better protection from our offensive line.
