Dallas Game Player Notes

Give your comments here on what stuck out to you most about individual players--

Brees- did not look sharp at all. Even with some not so great hands those dump passes didn't have much touch. Colston could have had a TD on a catchable ball.

Bouman- I as much as I have despised him he is making legitimate competition to Martin.

Deuce- not enough to tell yet

Bush- his play was much better than his stats. Didja hear Stuart Scott going on about him. I won't be surprised for Deuce's return to be slower and slower.

Horn- I think he will return to All Pro form and numbers barring injury.

Brown- even with these early growing pangs he will be more valuable as a LT

The rest of the O-Line I thought was better than last week, especially the rookies. Still not saying a lot though

Branch- makes the team IMO. See him get some reps against a first team defense in KC will confirm that.

Ninkovich- subtract the personal foul and he had a great game.

Fincher and Bockwoldt- looked lost to me. They might consider upping the offer for Edwards to a 3rd.

Craft- makes me sick as last year. If I am a QB and see him in the game I smile.

McKenzie- I want him to do well but I am seeing more journeyman than All Pro for the contract he got. He is hit or miss taking too many chances IMO.

Young- Thomas can clog a hole but I don't see how Young keeps a starting position the way he gets pushed around. Where I notice him most often is chasing down plays from behind.
