The Cowboys' offensive line has shown flashes of dominance. But it also has been hampered by mistakes, particularly penalties. One week, the O-Line is paving the way for two 100-yard running backs. Another week, Tony Romo is getting sacked five times. Leonard Davis said that reducing mistakes is the line's top priority. ``We're playing pretty decent,'' Davis said. ``Sometimes we know we make mistakes, but it's not mistakes we don't care about. We take a lot of pride in everything we do. ``I don't really care about stats; they can be deceiving. As long as we're efficient in what we're doing, the main thing is winning games.'' Penalties, especially false starts, have been a major source of frustration. ``That's one of the areas that we have to improve as a team,'' center Andre Gurode said. ``We're making a collective effort to clean those things up.''
