    Thinking about the interveiws after the game:

    Romo was good. Owens said they were still a work in progress. He was complementing the defense, but knows the ship isn't completely tight yet. This is good. I think they're all beleiving in themselves, but know they are still needing a few steps to be that great team that wins superbowls. (how mature is Owens, btw)

    The way I see it, they need DBs the most. two 1st round picks next year......
    I'd be tempted to take a corner and a saftey. I think they should add one or two more skill players too. I like the rest of the D. Like the line, maybe get a future development for Adams. Def like the two tight ends. But spend the big bucks getting a corner, safety and either a young GREAT receiver and complentary rb to Barber or over the top RB and 4th amount of money on WR. I like the 1st idea better.

    Yeah, they are going to need a corner (Henry is getting up there) and a receiver soon. They are talking about signing Ken Hamlin to a long term deal. I would be OK with that. He's not the best cover safety in the league but he has become a vocal leader on the defense and they've been better since he's been here. Plus he is only 26.

    Julius Jones is gone after this year so they will need a RB if they want to continue with this two back scheme, but they can pick up someone in free agency to take his place. Jones has become a very average RB.

    Word is Roy Williams (the receiver) wants out of Detroit. Maybe Dallas can do something there.

    ..and Cleveland's new-found ability to win games has probably cost us a chance at McFadden. :(

    Definitely. But I have never been a fan of using a high draft pick on a RB anyway. And the Cowboys will probably make MB3 the starter next year. So they just need someone to compliment him.

    Biggest need will be secondary and wide receiver I think.

    They also need to lock up Flozell Adams, or franchise him. He may make a few mental mistakes with false starts and such, but when he plays, he is dominant against the other team's pass rush. He can make an opposing pass rusher a non-factor.

    but what if the high draft pick on a rb would be another emmitt smith?

    that would be incredible wouldn't you think? witten, romo, owens and a superb rb.... i believe marion barber can get better. he's only 26. then we wouldn't only have triplets (aikmen, smith, irvin) but this time we'd have quadruplets.

    don't forget the cowboys have terry glenn to come back late this year/early next year and that he was a romo favorite. i guess the key is whether or not crayton is really good enough to be the #2 and then slot glenn like troy brown or something...maybe glenn could even play nickel.

    we'd call it a more well rounded offense than the Pats without as good a QB...reminicent of the old Cowboys (Aikman, Irvin, Harper (my fave), K-Mart, Novachek, Smith, and a fat o-line that all loved their mary-j). They could have scored 50 against the Packers the other night, and just did stupid stuff to hold off.

    Yeah, it would, but I think defense and receiver are going to be bigger issues. TO and Glenn aren't getting any younger, even though TO is having a career year.

    a receiver can be found in free agency (randy moss/roy williams perhaps), we can use our two first rounders on defensive players or parlay them into one nice pick...we'll see. It's kind of funny that we gave up #21 last season after not getting Reggie Nelsen and we'll get that this year.

    So...are we gonna keep it up against Detroit this week? They always give us trouble, and I'd love to knock them out of the playoffs.

    Yeah, Detroit has kind of been a nightmare to Dallas over the years. But this Lions team is on the way down. They have given up an incredible number of sack this year. The Cowboys are more focused than I have seen them in a long time.

    Dallas 30
    Detroit 10
