Dallas Cowboys 31, Denver Broncos 20

Monday, August 20th, 2007

The Dallas Cowboys flat out dominated the Denver Broncos on Saturday Night.  They rushed out to a 24-6 lead in the first three quarters before the Broncos put up a fight.  Tony Romo was solid as he completed 11 of 18 passes for 122 yards with an interception.  Brad Johnson also looked pretty efficient as he completed 6 of 9 passes for 56 yards with a TD pass.  Tyson Thompson was the workhorse for the Cowboys last Saturday as he carried the ball 16 times for 75 yards (4.7 ypc) to lead the team in rushing.  Marion Barber was also very impressive with 11 carries for 57 yards (5.2 ypc) with 2 TD runs.  Julius Jones also got his work in with 31 yards rushing on 9 carries (3.4 ypc) with 1 TD run.  Patrick Crayton looked good at WR with 3 grabs for 61 yards (20.3 avg).  Sam Hurd (3 rec, 36 yards) and rookie Isiah Stanback (2 rec, 30 yards, TD) both looked good in their battle to be the Cowboys #4 WR this season.  The Cowboys finished up running the football 42 times for 190 yards (4.5 ypc) and they completed 17 of 27 passes for 178 yards.

The defense played sharp for the Cowboys until the 4th quarter when the scrubs were in the game.  The Broncos only rushed for 35 yards on 19 carries (1.8 ypc) and they completed 18 of 34 passes for 234 yards.
