Elvis Dumervil just got his second sack of the game of Tony Romo. But why was fullback Deon Anderson blocking him in the first place? I don't want a fullback responsible for a guy who entered the game with six sacks in three games. The Cowboys were setting up a deep ball to Miles Austin on the play but Dumervil just overpowered Anderson. Dumervil's eight sacks tie him with Cincinnati's Antwan Odom for the NFL lead.

Just how good are these Dallas Cowboys?

Just back from Denver after a short night ... and I was wondering just how good are these Dallas Cowboys? Are they a 10- or 11- win team that's being "coached down" to an 8-8 mark or are they simply what they are, a team with mediocre talent that'll finish around the .500 mark? I think this team lacks playmakers. Who besides Felix Jones scares any defenses, and...

Costly penalties for the Cowboys

If you read the Officials report blog we had last week, you would have seen this crew had two tripping penalties in the New Orleans-Buffalo game it worked. So it was not a surprise to see Andre Gurode called for a trip. That put the Cowboys in a second-and-20 situation on the previous drive that ultimately led to a Tony Romo fumble.
