I feel your pain....

1-I don't get the 1 down lineman either. I could see if it was 3rd and 15 in which they have to pass but 3rd and short should be a stacked line to stop the run.

2-AH was not using good technique or applying the scheme right in my oppinion. He couldn't get a decent push up the middle. Even the announcers noticed it and commented on his lack of pressure and how he was not driving straight for the QB but taking side angles and getting pushed out of the play.

3-Yeah the cowboys were stupid to stop running the ball so much.

4-Orakpo would have had 4 sacks had it not been for #71 holding all night. Is he still on their team?

5-We would have if not for the holding. But I think because it's a rivalry I wonder if the coaching staff says "do whatever you have to do to keep them from getting a sack or getting to Romo." Might explain why #71 is still on the team and we have not heard he's been cut.

I'm liking the defense also. I was worried about what Haslett would bring to the table but it seems he's pulling his weight. The turnovers were there just not capitalized on in the case of Rogers. Hopefully that changes. I really can't fault Rogers even though others were quick to call him cement hands. I thought as the ball came in and hit his hands a cowboy hit him in the legs up ending him. I think if he's not hit he might have caught it.... I could be wrong.
