Will ‘Skins Be Ready for Cowboys?

Traditionally, all you have to do is say “Dallas Cowboys” in Washington and whether the listener is a fan or a player, you’ll get a fearsome growl. Or something equivalent. However, our encounter with Da Boys back in September did not go well, and it helped set the tone for a season that just hasn’t jelled yet. The thing that’s worrisome, though, is that the Cowboys, who also seemed to be floundering along, looked a lot different against Carolina, a game Dallas won 35-14. Has the switch from Drew Bledsoe to Tony Romo at quarterback made that much of a difference? Our quarterback’s assessment? Well, Mark Brunell said, “We’re 2-5, regardless of who it is and where it is, we need to win.”
