TEAMS: Dallas Cowboys

Igor Olshansky isn't in San Diego any more. Two games deep into his Cowboys career, he's caught on to what it means to wear a star on your helmet. Olshansky, like every other player who braved the lockerroom the day after the New York loss, was peppered with questions. Was he disappointed with how the defense performed? Why no turnovers? What happened to all those sacks? About the fifth time Olshansky was asked to express his disappointment or frustration over the loss, the defensive lineman came up with this. "This is only two weeks,'' he said. "I realize that this is the Dallas Cowboys, America's Team and everything, and everybody wants to write a novel after every game. "This is Game 2. We're going to get past this and we're going to go out there and we're going to win.''

Breaking down Tony Romo's interceptions

Tony Romo is taking heat for his interceptions against the Giants. I'd say the first one was a poor throw but great execution by the Giants, the second was fluky and the third was a bad decision. Interception No. 1 - After the game Romo said the Giants did a good job of checking out of their look before the snap. It's true. Antonio Pierce snuffed something out and the Giants...

Video: Inside Cowboys Stadium

The biggest thing that happened on Sunday night, at least as far a you are all concerned, was that the Giants beat the Dallas Cowboys 33-31. But the real big deal in Arlington, Texas was Jerry Jones’ new, $1.2 billion palace. I was there, obviously, and here’s a (lengthy) little look at what I saw …

Tony Romo Doesn't Need to Change; Jason Garrett Just Needs to Trust the Run

For the last two years, when people have asked me about Tony Romo and his high interception count, I've said that you take the good with the bad. He makes plays on the move and turns what should be sacks into 15-yard gains, bad snaps into first downs, and busted plays into touchdowns. So if he throws a few interceptions, I can live with it. However, I couldn't live with his...

Worrisome Cowboy: Will Dallas Stick with the Running Game?

Last week against the hated New York Giants, the Dallas Cowboys racked up 251 rushing yards. The majority of those yards came from Marion Barber, as he toted the ball 18 times for 124 yards and one touchdown. But what worries me about the Cowboys' running attack isn’t the team’s ability to actually run the ball; it’s their willingness to completely give up on...

Bugs Bunny said it best…

“Don’t take the world serious.”  Shame on some of you for not allowing yourself to laugh a little at the Duke basketball team photo.  I’m embarrassed at your inability to lighten the hell up. We’ll tackle that non-issue; why the biggest problem with the Dallas Cowboys is not Tony Romo; and the Panthers, Titans and Dolphins [...]
