Not To Be Negative...

Williams is aware of it though and we'll have a better idea where we're at after next week's game. The giants d does suck but they can throw the ball. Hopefully we shut them down.

All of that said, I think you have to apply alot of your post to your own team. Cowboys defense is nowhere what it needs to be for you to be considered the div champ just yet. That offense on the other hand...

Well said. But two of our top defenders are out (Newman and Ellis) so far (knock on wood) the offense has been able to make up for that. BUt Newman will be back either this week or next and Ellis is working out with the team again, so he will be back soon too.

That just means they will be healthy and fresh at midseason ready for the second half stretch. The defense will be much better week after week. Of this I am confident.

Also, don't know if you have heard, Tank Johnson is in Dallas this week for a physical and will probably be signed this week. He will be eligible to play week 9, another component in place that will start fresh and healthy for the second half of the season.

With all due respect, please, you can have Tank Johnson. He, combined with fellow head-case T.O., will hopefully create some more distractions for the Cowpokes. You should hope that Dallas doesn't become another clearing house for outcasts like the Bangles. Let us know how this turns out for you.

Tank's not a nose tackle. You play a 3-4. Not sure that's going to work out. And when he has a DUI in week 10 leading to more random gun charges, that's going to seem kind of pointless. LOL. (actually, I wanted to bring him in here...)

Newman may be somewhat "fresh" but that injury is the kind that hangs around all season long. He won't be the player you're thinking he will in 2007. I know I like the idea of a DB with a foot injury covering moss. Especially when his safety help over the top is Roy Williams.

Oooooh snap!

The good thing about Campbell being good at the long ball but not so much the shorter throws is that the shorter throws are MUCH easier to correct.

Just think, though...if Moss had gotten two more steps, it would've been the play of the week. It WILL happen, though! JC is only going to get better. He's got a GUN on him! Opposing defenses should be worried...very worried.
