**********2018 DALLAS COWBOYS**********

Nice. Going into halftime with a lead would be sweet. Don't give up any cheap points in this last minute!

Good first half. The d played well. Tony played well after the pick.

When they came back from commercial did anyone notice the dude behind Jerry cleaning Jerry's glasses

Jerry clean your own glasses .

Nice play and control by Romo on that drive, some good runs by Murray, looking good!

Wow, I know everybody is always tough on Romo, but can he get some credit when he plays well? Great job tonight after that early INT.

Yes I will give him credit...especially as bad as this o line has played...that last drive wow...impressive...now the D has to do its job...we were in this spot last year as well.

Murray...no doubt in my mind we make the playoffs if he's healthy and playing down the stretch.

I agree, they were a different team last year when Murray was healthy. Already tonight the defense looks better than it did last year. Even still, I won't feel comfortable until the clock hits all zeros.

I am impressed. Romo was just fantastic after the INT, Murray seems to have picked up where he left off last year, Ogeltree, Austin and Bryant play well, especially the last 2 considering they missed all of camp.

I thought Jason called a good game. The defense looks much better than last year.

The O line is terrible though...waaaaay too many penalties. But considering they've hardly played together and the Giants have a great pass rush, I'll take a wait and see approach.

Now 10 days off till we get Seattle. Starting 2-0 on the road sure would be special and could really go along ways toward the playoffs.

Great way to start the season! The D looked good and will continue to get better. I like the Lee and Carter combo.

Offensive line needs to improve and limit the mental mistakes but I think they will.

And what else can you say about Romo? He led this team to a victory amidst all the mistakes/penalties. Great seeing him step up as the leader of this offense.

Ogletree, Austin and Bryant all played really well too.

Good win on the road in a tough environment.

big statement win on the road. it's gotta feel good beating the champs on their turf.

I agree...any reason to put Costa back in...I think Cook deserves a shot at starting centre, he had very limited practice and looked like the best O lineman. I think as the season goes on they should get better...limited time playing together...Witten won't commit penalties like that in the future, he was very rusty.

The giants have what might be the best front seven and they survived so thats a bonus.

plus they come away for the most part injury free...especially Austin and Bryant.

Felix Jones seems like he's on his way out...I wouldn't be surprised he's traded at the deadline.

Now ten days off to prepare for Seattle...starting 2-0 would be huge...especially 2-0 on the road.

Still it's only 1 game and they have a tough schedule ahead of them.

It does for 2 reasons...1. the way the giants beat them twice last year...especially blowing a 12 point lead at home with 5 minutes left.
2. the cap penalties that were levied against the Cowboys from a committee led by the giants owner. Is that not a conflict of interest? What kind of league lets one of your biggest competitor lead a committee investigating you :fp: :fp:?

Well that went about the way I thought. Maybe not the outcome but I knew that defense would be a lot better and they were. The OL struggled but they have to improve over the course of the season. Romo cannot be expected to play at the top of his game every game like that.

What a difference Murray makes!!

I know it isn't last year anymore but I just think the Giants are not that great. They got a lot of lucky breaks and got hot at the end after going 9-7 and barely getting in thanks to a dropped pass by Austin.

If the Cowboys don't blow all those big leads last year then who knows what would have happened.

I know what will happen this year though: they will not be blowing those leads.

Impressive road win. Little bit of Super Bowl Hangover on the part of the Giants but still impressive.

One more takeaway: Last year's Jason Garrett would have called a running play on 3rd down at the end of the game. This year's Jason Garrett trusted his QB to make a play and he did. End of game.

I also thought Jason called a good game...after one game he even looks improved . Only call I really questioned was the handoff to Vickers on 3rd and 1.

Exactly! I thought for sure he was going to run it 3 times and punt it.

I agree...well i was hoping for a 1-1 start, now i'm hoping for 2-0.

No love for Pete Carrol I see.

Giants blaming refs for the loss? I didn't think the replacement refs were all that bad. The normal refs wouldn't have helped the Giants lack of a pass rush last night.

Good win. But a million things to work on. Happy to get it but the coaching staff needs to get all over these guys.
