OK, so I slipped a bit and didn't keep my blog updated with preseason game recaps... my apologies.
In brief, Game 3, San Fransisco at Dallas was a decent effort, but nothing incredibly noteworthy happened. There was a Romo interception which was sad to see, but there was a Felix Jones Touchdown, which was happy to see. Dallas lost though, 20-13. Next.
Game 4, Dallas at Minnesota. A game with nothing but backups, but they managed to impress. Pat Watkins in particular, who had a pick six and was all over the place racking up 7 tackles. Kevin Ogletree also made a case for himself to make the roster (which he did) and even Jesse Holley, winner of Michael Irvin's '4th and Long' had a heads-up play as he grabbed a bouncing punt and return it for the touchdown that won the game. Dallas 35, Minnesota 31.
Now we move on to the big day, the true kickoff to the Cowboys' season, Sunday at 1 p.m. (ET) Dallas will travel to Tampa Bay and battle the Bucs.
There is a lot of expectations for Dallas this year and this game may very well set the tempo for the season. I can only hope it starts off on a positive note with an impressive win... Go Cowboys, let's do 2009 right!
