Anyone worried???
With LaVar, Daniels, and Barrow out and Pierce probable with a rib injury is anyone worried that the Cowboys might be able to actually establish some sort of run game??? If they do it worries me because the pass attack is already pretty strong. Hopefully we can get some pressure on Vinny and knock him around a bit. Maybe Sean Taylor will actually see some good pt and he will have a shot at making the big plays he is capable of.

I'm not worried about the D much at all.
I'm more concerned about the offense. Other than the 64 yard run by Portis and the opening drive against the Giants, the offense has been riddled with turnovers and 3 and outs. We need to establish the run and hit some big plays tonight, and not turn the ball over of course. I think the D will take care of business. The run D has been very stout so far and I think that will continue. If we can pressure Vinny he will make a mistake or two. The key tonight is our secondary against their WR's. |

The Cowboys have no running game right now with Julius Jones out. Yeah, they have Eddie George, but he his ancient and it shows. Vinny has made some good plays when he's had time, but also has had his share of INTs. He has 2 TDs and 3 INTs in 2 games.
I'm not really worried about the D. I have faith in Williams' and his guys. I am more worried about the offense correcting their stupid mistakes.

I think that our defense may be our best offense tonight. We just need to hope that our offense isn't giving the points away. Who knows at this point in the season - both teams are still trying to figure out their on-field identities.

Of course I am worried I am sick and tired of losing to the cowboys. I have way to many friends and family that are cowboy fans and I have to hear them all year long. I am the lone Skin fan. There are to many big names that are injured I really hope Gibbs and Williams have some tricks up there sleeves because it would really stink to get our butts kicked on national TV.

Not worried a bit. I have great confidence that Gregg Williams will work to cause turnovers to our benefit. We need for our defense to score some points against this team. Brunell just needs to play within his abilities and not fumble for a turnover or worse. I'm looking to see McCants activated for this game and to make his presence known. He should split time with Gardner and ultimatedly take his spot. Sean Taylor has a good game and possibly causing several turnovers. Portis redeems himself. We win 21, Dallas 14

I'm not worried at all. The Cowboys offense will be shut down by our defense. We will do enough on offense to get over the hump and whoop those cowgirls.

yeah man, Gardner. he's had more than enough chances. put him down.
also, in spite of his first week performance (due to Williams), dont you think Lott could be more effective at Bowen's position along with Taylor?? |

we've got a bigger, faster hitter in Taylor. we need speed and coverage back there, else we can't terrorize the qb with the blitzes

I am a little worried, yes. If I were the roids, I'd line up the tightend AWAY from Warner (making that the weakside), pull the fullback, and run at Warner and Marshall. They are both undersized, and a power game should be able to pressure them. This is a big reason why it's important for us to dictate tempo on offense and get ahead in this game. It'll keep them from runingn over the weakened area of the D.
But I'm sure Coach Williams knows all this and more. Ultimately, I have faith that he'll have this group of guys ready to kick ass.
