Penalties - we have a LOT of rookies starting. Browner - he came from the Pats knowing 1) he makes 1 or 2 key plays per game, and 2) he commits about 2 key penalties per game.

Browner had a solid play on that stop.

What the hell was with the defensive penalties? I'm not a Browner fan. Don't if we more later, but at one point they said we had 6 def penalties for first downs

Those penalties kept our D on the field repeatedly and kept the Cows in the game, against better teams we are toast. It appears that's the way Browner plays and he becomes more of a liability.

It's a start. We still have to answer a lot of questions.

Snead's rapid improvement will help Cooks. I think Cooks will have a big second half of the year when teams realise Snead's threat.

I hate to be a debbie downer cuz I'm grateful for the win, but if romo and dez were playing even against our healthiest defense, it wouldnt have been close

Yeah and if we would have had the Dome Patrol on defence Romo would have crapped his pants. Coulda woulda shoulda.

You can only beat the team that you play everything else is just speculation.

Vaccaro struggles in coverage, he can tackle pretty well, but pass defense is not his strong suit that's for sure. -Captain Obvious

Well Pass Defense is none our DB's strong suit they all struggle Breaux Browner Swann Philips you name him he struggles Lewis too Struggle includes penalties

Lewis played pretty well considering first game back from the injury...

Like the dedication to the team at 4AM, lol.
I think the team is coming along, and starting to gel on both sides of the ball. I am concerned by the huge penalties on defense that kept giving first downs and the invisible defensive pressure.
Love the fact we got our first win, but totally aware if that had not been Dallas's 2nd and 3rd string, the threads would look a lot different.
We'll see if we can build some momentum against a Eagles team also in turmoil.
