The Cowboys didn’t look too good in Denver on Saturday Night.  Tony Romo made a brief appearance in which he completed 6 of 9 passes for 33 yards.  Veteran Brad Johnson did look really sharp against the Broncos as he completed 9 of 12 passes for 114 yards including a 5-yard TD strike to WR Miles Austin.  Richard Bartel finished up the game proving that he’s not quite ready for prime time yet.  Bartel completed 7 of 14 passes for 107 yards with 1 interception.  He also carried the football 2 times for 10 yards (5.0 ypc).  RB Keon Lattimore led the Cowboys in rushing with 25 yards on only 3 carries (8.3 ypc).  Marion Barber was his usual solid self rushing for 22 yards on 5 carries (4.4 ypc).  Rookie Felix Jones pitched in with 17 yards rushing on 3 carries (5.7 ypc) and he also caught 1 pass for 27 yards.  TE Rodney Hannah was the leading receiver for the Cowboys in this game with 52 yards receiving on 4 catches (13.0 avg).  WR Miles Austin pitched in with 2 catches for 42 yards (21.0 avg) with a TD grab before leaving the game with an injury.  The Cowboys finished up with 70 yards rushing on 20 carries (3.5 ypc) in this game.  They also completed 22 of 35 passes for 254 yards as they only had possession of the football for 26:53 of this game.

CB Adam Jones, LB Bradie James, FS Ken Hamlin and LB Tyson Smith each had 6 tackles apiece to led the Cowboys’ defense.  The Broncos finished up with 101 yards rushing on 32 carries (3.2 ypc) and they also completed 25 of 34 passes for 253 yards in this game.  The Cowboys are thrilled that this was just a preseason game because the defense looked awful.
