Week 6 Recap: Dallas (16) @ New England (20)

Another game that Dallas should have won... well, obviously going into the game, not many expected Dallas to win, but once they hit the field, they had a shot. The offense sputtered at times but the defense was solid throughout, (minus the final Patriots drive which gave them the lead with only :22 seconds left.)


Here are some of the concerns I have leaving this game:

- There were far too many penalties, this needs to be cleaned up.

- There is NO running game to speak of. The backs can't get any yardage no matter what they try. Felix Jones sucks, Tashard Choice sucks and DeMarco Murray sucks... I think it's time to at least give that Tanner guy some carries.


Here are some things that I was generally pleased about:

- Romo was not horrible, he managed pretty well.

- DeMarcus Ware racked up 2 more sacks... dude is a beast.

- Sean Lee continues to impress, he scooped up a nice interception...again.


All in all, it wasn't bad, and they held The Patriots to only 20 points... unfortunately we just need the offense to put up more than 20 to be effective. Someday it might happen.
