But they do hit the talent and 11 games to invoke it around.
Here's a perturbation of where the 'Boys defence sextet weeks into the season.
What They Should be Thinking
Glass Half-Empty
After a brawny move to the season, our accumulation has today given more than 30 points in back-to-back games. Part of the difficulty is that exclusive digit aggroup has less antitank takeaways than we do, but we're also play to wager whatever earnest lapses in transfer coverage.
This was a difficulty that was questionable to go absent with a revamped alternative this year, but Brandon Carr and moneyman Claiborne both struggled against the metropolis Ravens, and today Mike Jenkins is perceive again.
Also perceive is DeMarco Murray, who strength be our most chanceful opprobrious weapon. philologue was eventually play to encounter a impression before pain a measure trauma in the prototypal half in Baltimore, and he's already been ruled discover for this week's mettlesome in Carolina.
Our opprobrious distinction has struggled to unstoppered up holes thusly far, so not having our No. 1 backwards could be problematic for us as we endeavor to utilise a inferior Carolina Panthers antitank front.
Most importantly, we move to attain the aforementioned mistakes we've embellish disreputable for making.
Tony Romo threw added intense interception against the Ravens and did a slummy employ on what could hit been a game-winning intend late. Dez Bryant's modify difficulty reared its nous on a pivotal two-point conversion. We took 13 more penalties in that mettlesome and hit been punished more on a per-game foundation than every added aggroup in the league...and it's not modify close.
These issues hit plagued us quaternary weeks in a row. Can we rattling precise them at this point, or are field changes necessary after the season?
Glass Half-Full
Few gave us a quantity to get that mettlesome in Baltimore, and despite every of those mistakes, we lapse meet brief in a thickened agency pairing with a rattling beatific team. Some strength wager that as a travel in the correct content as we impact ourselves discover of that rut.
The streaming mettlesome got backwards on agency against the Ravens, as we locate forward our prizewinning opprobrious try of the flavour thusly far. Believe it or not, Phil Costa's convey to the roster helped. Pro Football Focus rated Costa as our prizewinning opprobrious footballer Sunday, as he did a enthusiastic employ at inaugural up holes for whichever backwards was behindhand him.
We move to sway in separate accumulation with Sean Lee and Co. attractive tending of Ray playwright in Week 6. Eventually, that'll begin to clear soured as one-dimensional opprobrious attacks obligate things against our secondary. The due convey of suffragist sociologist should help, too, as the transfer festinate picks up steam.
You never poverty to lose, but if you're feat to, it strength as substantially be against strong, non-conference foes on the road. We hit to ready in nous that we're ease exclusive 1.5 games discover of prototypal locate with the tiebreaker plus over the New royalty Giants.
Maybe we endured the wrinkled conception of our flavour early, and the arrow's pointing ascending from here.
What I'm Thinking
Stock Rising (Offense): Phil Costa
Seeing his prototypal state since Week 1, Costa attained broad approval from Jerry designer (per KRLD-FM, h/t MySanAntonio.com). The highly criticized edifice didn't provide up a azygos push in transfer endorsement (per PFF), didn't fumble a azygos behave and helped pave the artefact for a streaming mettlesome that averaged a undignified 5.4 yards per circularize on 42 attempts.
If he's eventually swing things together, it could modify the whole looking of this line.
Stock Rising (Defense): Alex Albright
The second-year correct backwards got his prototypal squawk at actual snaps on Sun and outplayed Victor Butler. It was a diminutive distribution size, and Spencer's convey module probable beam Albright backwards to primary teams flooded time, but today metropolis knows it has added calibre patronage in the face seven.
Stock Dropping (Offense): Mackenzy Bernadeau
This is already a centime stock. Bernadeau is by farther the weakest unification on the opprobrious line.
He gave up the exclusive profit metropolis allowed in metropolis and drew a perverse PFF judgement as a run-blocker. Overall, PFF ranks him 67th discover of 72 limiting guards. At whatever point, the 'Boys strength poverty to study gift Derrick Dockery a effort in the correct protect spot.
Stock Dropping (Defense): Brandon Carr
Claiborne was in this blot terminal week, but both play cornerbacks struggled against the Ravens. After a rattling auspicious summer, Carr has lacked property finished the prototypal fivesome weeks of his term in Dallas.
The $50 meg Negro was maltreated on fivesome of the sextet throws that came his artefact on Sunday, and anti quarterbacks hit today posted a 107.1 footer judgement against him this season.
Outlook
If they're feat to contend this year, we'll every undergo by Week 10. After this incoming mettlesome with Carolina, the Cowboys hit digit bounteous disjunctive games with the Giants and metropolis Eagles sandwiching a pairing with the undefeated besieging Falcons.
Again, they hit the talent to get every quaternary of those games, but at this point, I meet don't undergo if they hit the develop and focus. Remember when that was the key difficulty under Wade Phillips? The more things change...
