Now . . . can DMac follow big game with another?

Good read from the Dallas Morning News:

He was strong today...again. The rushing numbers weren't great, but he was the leading receiver (which isn't good for the team.)

I was invited to the game today, sitting in one of the odd field-level suites near a goal line. In the Cowboys first drive, they were on our end. DMac was really running hard, cutting sharp, punishing tacklers. At the end of the 3rd quarter, again right in front of us, he had a super run, down inside the 10. But a penalty scratched the play.

So for the second straight week, he had a winning TD or a run to potentially set up the winning TD called back. I'm sure all the sports stations will be talking about him tonight and tomorrow. I'll report back.

He's been a bargain for the cowboys the past 2 games. Too bad they don't have a QB

At one point during the second half Fox put up a graphic showing that Cassell had only thrown one pass more than 10 yards downfield.  97 yards passing, 3.9 per attempt.  Pathetic.

Darren has carried 49 times in two games, an average of 25 per.  Randle averaged 13 rushing attempts and never carried more than 18 in any game.  Darren is averaging 4.0, Randle was at 4.1.  One back is getting twice as many attempts lately than the other was getting on average.  Of course that is due to injury, but the difference in opportunities exists nonetheless.

It's hard to compare those two with ypc stats. Randale had two starts with a competent QB that surely helped ease the pressure he was going to see.

So far, so good.

He's having a good game tonight.

Wonder if the romo haters will finally shut up after going 0-6 and counting without him this year.

After 12-4 last year with the same team.

Dmac every bit as good Murray this year. No doubt about it.

Post game quote of the night, Lane Johnson on facing Greg Hardy: "I've faced better. ... When things aren't going well he's a guy that shuts it down."

The Cowboys' season is over.

I was there. McFadden was excellent. Not enough downfield threat (passing). Philly ain't that great, but we made them look pretty good. Our D has too many holes. Kinda like the Hogs' D lately.

I don't know how the Cowboys rebound from this. Our coaching staff can't figure out how to adjust to what the opponents' defenses are doing...which is NOT respecting the pass.

I was thinking the same things last night. It should be clear what a difference maker he really is.
