The Cowboys never had a chance last night against the Packers.  It’s hard to win when you don’t show up ready to play which is exactly what the Cowboys did last night.  They looked like they were in a trance for three hours last night.  Jon Kitna completed 19 of 30 passes for 183 yards with 1 TD pass and 2 INTs (one was returned 62 yards for a TD by LB Clay Matthews of the Packers).  Felix Jones (5 carries for 16 yards) and Marion Barber (6 carries for 14 yards) “led” the way on the ground for the Cowboys last night.  Dez Bryant caught 9 passes for 86 yards (9.6 avg) with 1 TD grab but he also muffed a punt that was recovered by the Packers.  TEs Jason Witten (3 rec, 44 yards) and Martellus Bennett (3 rec, 20 yards) also helped out in the passing game yesterday.  The Cowboys carried the ball 14 times for 39 yards (2.8 ypc) and they also completed 19 of 30 passes for 166 yards as they only had possession of the ball for 22:04.

LBs Keith Brooking (10 tackles) and Bradie James (9 tackles, 1 pass defensed) led the way for the Cowboys’ “defense” last night.  The Packers finished up with 138 yards rushing on 35 carries (3.9 ypc) and they also completed 27 of 35 passes for 277 yards in this game.  Bryan McCann also had a terrible play in this game as CB Jarrett Bush ripped a ball from his hands which was recovered by safety Nick Collins who returned it 26 yards for a TD.  The Cowboys are now 1-7 on the season.

The Cowboys looked awful yesterday like they didn’t even want to play and it showed on the scoreboard.  Jon Kitna got his first start at QB for the Cowboys yesterday and he completed 34 of 49 passes for 379 yards with 1 TD pass and 4 interceptions.  3 of his interceptions bounced off receivers hands (Felix Jones, Roy Williams & Miles Austin) right into the hands of Jags’ defenders.  The Cowboys had virtually no ground game to speak of as Marion Barber (9 carries, 16 yards, TD) and Felix Jones (8 carries, 22 yards) led the way for them yesterday.  Miles Austin (7 rec, 117 yards), Dez Bryant (7 rec, 84 yards) and Jason Witten (10 rec, 97 yards, TD) led the way in the passing game for the Cowboys yesterday.  The Cowboys finished up with only 50 yards rushing on 22 carries (2.3 ypc) and they also completed 34 of 49 passes for 365 yards.

The Cowboys’ D was pathetic yesterday!  LB Keith Brooking (10 tackles, 1 tackle for a loss and 1 QB hit), safety Alan Ball (7 tackles) and DE Igor Olshansky (6 tackles) led the way for the Cowboys’ D yesterday.  The Jaguars finished up with 149 yards rushing on 34 carries (4.4 ypc) and they also completed 17 of 21 passes for 238 yards.  The Cowboys are now a miserable 1-6 on the year.

The Cowboys got really beat up in this game physically by the Giants.  Tony Romo completed 5 of 7 passes for 39 yards with 1 TD pass and 0 INTs before he left this game with a broken left clavicle.  Jon Kitna replaced him and he completed 16 of 33 passes for 187 yards with 2 TD passes and 0 INTs.  Felix Jones led the way on the ground for the Cowboys last night with 9 carries for 35 yards (3.9 ypc) and he also caught 3 passes for 27 yards (9.0 avg).  Marion Barber pitched in with a paltry 6 yards rushing on 4 carries (1.5 ypc) last night.  Jason Witten led the way through the air for the Cowboys with 9 grabs for 95 yards (10.6 avg) with 1 TD grab.  Dez Bryant had a monster breakout game with 4 grabs for 54 yards (13.5 avg) with 2 TD grabs and he also returned a punt 93 yards for a TD.  The Cowboys finished up with 41 yards rushing on 13 carries (3.2 ypc) and they also completed 21 of 40 passes for 213 yards as they only had possession of the ball for 22:29.

The Cowboys were pretty awful on defense after the Giants’ first two possessions of the game.  LB Keith Brooking & CB Terence Newman each picked off a pass on the Giants’ first two possessions and it set up 10 points for the Cowboys.  LB Bradie James led the way for the Cowboys’ D with 9 tackles, 1 tackle for a loss and 1 fumble recovery.  LB Keith Brooking (6 tackles, 1 tackles for a loss, 1 pass defensed and 1 interception (he returned it 41 yards)) and CB Terence Newman (6 tackles, 2 passes defensed and a interception that he returned 30 yards) also made some good plays last night.  Gerald Sensabaugh (INT) and DeMarcus Ware (FR) also made big plays in this game for the Cowboys’ D.  The Giants finished up with 200 yards rushing on 37 carries (5.4 ypc) and they also completed 25 of 35 passes for 297 yards.  The Cowboys are now 1-5 on the year.

Blogged under Bloglockers,Front Page,Game Recaps,General Cowboys Talk by admin on Sunday 17 October 2010 at 8:24 pm

The Cowboys got 126 more yards on offense then the Vikings did today but big mistakes killed them once again.  Percy Harvin of the Vikings scored on a 95 yard kickoff return today and that really hurt the Cowboys in the end.  Tony Romo for some reason this year just can’t make the big play.  Romo completed 24 of 32 passes for 220 yards with 3 TD passes and 2 INTs today.  He also carried the ball 3 times for 31 yards (10.3 ypc) in this game.  Felix Jones carried the ball 14 times for 32 yards (2.3 ypc) but he also caught 10 passes for 61 yards (6.1 avg) today.  Marion Barber rushed for 31 yards on 10 carries (3.1 ypc) and he also caught 3 passes for 15 yards (5.0 avg).  Jason Witten (3 rec, 52 yards), Dez Bryant (1 rec, 31 yards, TD) and Roy Williams (3 rec, 28 yards, 2 TD grabs) made some big plays today for the Cowboys in the passing game.  The Cowboys finished up with 94 yards rushing on 28 carries (3.4 ypc) and they also completed 24 of 32 passes for 200 yards as they had possession of the ball for 32:10.

The defense played well once again for the Cowboys.  LB Bradie James (10 tackles, 2 tackles for a loss) and safety Gerald Sensabaugh (7 tackles, 2 tackles for a loss, 1 sack and 1 QB hit) led the way for the Cowboys’ D today.  The Vikings finished up with 95 yards rushing on 28 carries (3.4 ypc) and they also completed 14 of 19 passes for 93 yards.  The Cowboys are now a stunning 1-4 on the year.

Tennessee Titans 34, Dallas Cowboys 27

Blogged under Bloglockers,Front Page,Game Recaps,General Cowboys Talk by admin on Monday 11 October 2010 at 12:04 am

Tony Romo was throwing the ball a lot to the Titans and it killed the Cowboys in the end today.  Tony Romo completed 31 of 46 passes for 406 yards with 3 TD passes and 3 INTs.  Felix Jones was outstanding for the Cowboys in this game as he carried the ball 15 times for 109 yards (7.3 ypc) and he also caught 4 passes for 17 yards (4.3 avg).  Marion Barber pitched in with 19 yards rushing on 6 carries (3.2 ypc) in this game.  Miles Austin (9 rec, 166 yards, TD), Roy Williams (6 rec, 87 yards, TD) and Jason Witten (5 rec, 84 yards, TD) led the way in the passing game for the Cowboys in this game.  The Cowboys finished up this game with 141 yards rushing on 23 carries (6.1 ypc) and they also completed 31 of 46 passes for 370 yards as they had possession of the football for 36:44….but they still lost!

LBs Bradie James (6 tackles) and DeMarcus Ware (4 tackles, 1 tackle for a loss, 2 sacks and 2 QB hits) led the way for the Cowboys’ D in this game.  The Titans finished up with 158 yards rushing on 27 carries (5.9 ypc) and they also completed 12 of 25 passes for 163 yards.  The Cowboys are now a very disappointing 1-3 on the year.

Blogged under Bloglockers,Front Page,Game Recaps,General Cowboys Talk by admin on Monday 27 September 2010 at 10:26 am

The Dallas Cowboys looked like the team many expected them to be yesterday in Houston.  Tony Romo did a good job of spreading the ball around to a bunch of receivers in this game.  Romo completed 23 of 30 passes for 284 yards with 2 TD passes and 0 INTs yesterday.  Marion Barber (17 car, 55 yards, TD) and Felix Jones (7 car, 43 yards) finally gave the Cowboys the threat of a running game against the Texans making it much easier to throw the football.  Roy Williams was the main man in the passing attack as he finished up with 5 grabs for 117 yards (23.4 avg) with 2 TD grabs yesterday.  Dez Bryant (4 rec, 50 yards) and Jason Witten (7 rec, 56 yards) also helped out in the passing game against the Texans.  The Cowboys finished up with 101 yards rushing on 27 carries (3.7 ypc) and they also completed 23 of 30 passes for 284 yards.

The Dallas D was outstanding until the Texans last drive but the game was well in hand by then.  Keith Brooking led the way for the Cowboys’ D yesterday with 9 tackles, 1 tackle for a loss, 1 sack, 1 pass defensed and 1 QB hit.  OLB DeMarcus Ware (6 tackles, 3 sacks) and CB Terence Newman (7 tackles, 1 pass defensed and 1 fumble recovery) also had solid games for the Cowboys.  Safety Danny McCray and CB Mike Jenkins each pitched in with 1 interception apiece.  The Texans finished up with 124 yards rushing on 22 carries (5.6 ypc) and they also completed 23 of 32 passes for 216 yards.  The Cowboys are now 1-2 on the year.
