Dallas Cowboys 34, Chicago Bears 10

Monday, September 24th, 2007

The Dallas Cowboys exploded in the 2nd half of the game last night as they kicked the Cowboys’ ass!  Tony Romo completed 22 of 35 passes for 329 yards with 2 TD passes and 1 interception.  RB Marion Barber was outstanding as he was running over the Bears defense.  He carried the ball 15 times for 102 yards (6.8 ypc) with 1 TD run and he also caught 1 pass for 10 yards and it was a TD.  Julius Jones also carried some of the load in the running game last night as he toted the rock 7 times for 26 yards (3.7 ypc) and he also caught 2 passes for 29 yards (14.5 avg).  Terrell Owens was devastating to the Bears’ defense as he caught 8 passes for 145 yards (18.1 avg) and TE Jason Witten was also very busy with 6 catches for 90 yards (15.0 avg) and a TD.  The Cowboys finished up with 131 yards rushing on 25 carries (5.2 ypc) and they also completed 22 of 35 passes for 300 yards.

The defense of the Cowboys was outstanding last night.  Roy Williams (3 tackles, fumble recovery, interception), Anthony Henry (2 tackles, 2 interceptions (1 returned 51 yards for a TD)) and linebacker DeMarcus Ware (6 tackles, 2 sacks) were all outstanding!  The Cowboys held the Bears to 75 yards rushing on 23 carries (3.3 ypc) and the Bears also completed 15 of 33 passes for 164 yards.

Dallas Cowboys 37, Miami Dolphins 20

Monday, September 17th, 2007

The Dallas Cowboys were ballhogs yesterday as they had possession of the football for 35:03 of the football game yesterday against the Dolphins.  Tony Romo had a solid game completing 14 of 29 passes for 186 with 2 TD passes and 0 interceptions.  He also ran the ball 4 times for 36 yards (9.0 ypc).  Marion Barber did the heavy lifting in the running game as he carried the ball 14 times for 89 yards (6.4 ypc) with 2 TD runs.  Julius Jones had a rough time finding running room against the Dolphins as he carried the ball 15 times for 32 yards (2.1 ypc).  WR Terrell Owens was outstanding as usual with 5 catches for 97 yards (19.4 avg) with 1 TD.  The Cowboys finished up with 166 yards rushing on 36 carries (4.6 ypc) and they completed 14 of 29 passes for 186 yards.

The defense was outstanding yesterday for the Cowboys as they held the Dolphins to 61 yards rushing on 21 carries (2.9 ypc) and they intercepted Trent Green 4 times!  CB Anthony Henry (2 tackles, 2 interceptions) and safeties Roy Williams (4 tackles, interception) and Ken Hamlin (5 tackles, interception) were baiting Trent Green into the mistakes the whole game.  The Dolphins did throw for 273 yards on 23 of 40 passing but it didn’t matter in the long run as the Cowboys were the vastly superior team yesterday.

Dallas Cowboys 45, New York Giants 35

Monday, September 10th, 2007

The Cowboys just had too much firepower for the Giants to keep up with.  QB Tony Romo led the way for the Cowboys as he completed 15 of 24 passes for 345 yards with 4 TD passes and 1 interception.  He also ran the ball 3 times for 11 yards (3.7 ypc) and scored his first career rushing TD.  Julius Jones and Marion Barber split the carries last night and they both ran pretty well.  Barber carried the ball 11 times for 65 yards (5.9 ypc) with a TD and he also caught 1 pass for 29 yards.  Julius Jones ran the ball 16 times for 66 yards (4.1 ypc) and he also caught 1 pass for 11 yards.  TE Jason Witten led all receivers with the Cowboys last night with 6 catches for 116 yards (19.3 avg) with 1 TD catch.  Terrell Owens caught 3 passes for 87 yards (29.0 avg) with 2 TD grabs.  Patrick Crayton (3 rec, 51 yards) and Sam Hurd (1 rec, 51 yards, TD) both really helped out in the passing game.  The Cowboys finished up with 142 yards rushing on 30 carries (4.7 ypc) and they also completed 15 of 24 passes for 336 yards.

As good as the Cowboys offense was the defense almost cost them this game.  The Giants rushed for 124 yards on 22 carries (5.6 ypc) and they also completed 29 of 44 passes for 314 yards.
