Cowboys News and Information

By Dave Trollope • October 30, 2009

I have been away moving to a new home and didn’t have any internet, so now I am back.

What a great game the Cowboys played last Sunday against the Falcons! Cowboys finally played a complete game and won two games in a row!

The Cowboys defense stepped up and got pressure on Matt Ryan and stopped their running game. The defense was led by DeMarcus Ware’s two sacks and the defensive line. The secondary is even showing some toughness with some big hits and interception by Mike Jenkins! Great job, D!!

Miles Austin, what can you say? There was always some hope he would step up to the challenge, and he did against Kansas City and Atlanta. This is what Jerry was hoping for when he let TO go. A receiver to stretch the field and make the big play. Tony definitely has a lot of trust in him, now just need to get it going with Roy Williams.

It was great to see DeMarcus Ware to finally get paid with a new contract. This is well deserved, and I know he will not let up. He will continue to be the beast he has been. He is a great athlete, but even better as a person.

The next game is against the Seattle Seahawks. Last year, the Seahawks were bad and injured when they came to Texas Stadium last Thanksgiving. The Cowboys won 34-9. This year, they are injured on the offensive line, Lofa Tatupu will be out with a torn pectoral. They have blown away the St Louis Rams and the Jacksonville Jaguars.

The Cowboys must take advantage of the weakened offensive front and go after Matt Hasselback. The way the defense is playing now, I don’t see a problem for them to do that. They will be facing their old teammate, Julius Jones, but he really hasn’t been a factor for that team yet.

This should come down a victory for the Cowboys, but this could be a trap game. The attitude seems different now, so I don’t think the Cowboys are looking ahead to next week against the Philadelphia Eagles.

They need to take one game at a time, establish some consistency through these next few games. The Cowboys have a tough schedule here on out, they need to finish strong. This season seems to be different already. The Cowboys have struggled the beginning of the season this year, they usually start strong and finish weak. Let’s hope they are turning it around and finish strong this year.
