Preseason Week 2: Titans vs Cowboys Fantasy Notes

August 22nd, 2009 · No Comments

The first NFL game in the new Cowboys Stadium, which has Jumbotrons I would die to have in my home theater, was a “fantasy” dominating performance by the 1st string Dallas offense and defense.

Here are my notes on the game:

Cowboys- starting offense had 4 drives (played the entire 1st half)

  • O-Line looked like one of the best in the league…Romo had all day and Barber/Jones had plenty of running room for many plays
  • Tony Romo was almost perfect.  His pocket presence, accuracy, etc. were all top-notch.
  • Roy Williams and Jason Witten got the majority of the targets.  Roy looked solid and Witten looked awesome.
  • Marion Barber showed off his repertoire of skills running strong, catching out of the back field, and hitting the right holes…VERY impressive
  • Felix Jones showed how dangerous he is in the open field was an awesome catch in the middle of the field, run to the outside, and even a goal line TD run

Titans- starting offense had 3 drives (played the entire 1st half)

  • Kerry Collins was stifled for 2 of the drives due to the swarming Cowboys D
  • Targets were evenly distributed b/w Nate Washington, Justin Gage and Bo Scaife got most of the targets
  • Rookie RB Javon Ringer had a few eye-opening runs and catches, AND outplayed Chris Johnson / LenDale White, AND it was against the 1st string Dallas defense.
