Do you think the Cowboys can make it all the way?

Answer 1

Good question, I have some points of contention that they'll have to address in order to do it.

1. Defense- Although Wade Phillips' version of the 3-4 will be run, there's a 2-pronged question that comes with this. What will become of the pass rush, and the secondary? After Greg Ellis went down in the Arizona game last season, Bill Parcells' version of the 3-4 went right behind it. It was no wonder why Parcells was banking on Ellis to make the transition from 3pt stance defensive end to 2 pt stance outside linbacker. He was the secret ingredient to the pass rush opposite Demarcus Ware. Although 1st founder Bobby Carpenter showed some life towards the end of the season, it still shows a glaring need of a pass rush. Maybe, just maybe, Wade's version of the 3-4 may do just that. As for the secondary, they need to look at safety. Pat Watkins may have learned a thing or two after coming out of the burn clinic from getting burnt in several games, but that still remins to be seen. Hey, at least Mike Zimmer can't be blamed this time if the defense falls apart.

2.Offense- Tony Romo's back, this time for a full training camp, preseason, and season as the de facto starter. The addition of Brad Johnson provides much needed experience and depth in the event that Tony Romo has a meltdown. The offensive line to me even though they made some news by signing Leonard Davis, is still a question mark to me. I wouldn't care if it was "market value" I still don't fathom how you could pay $50 million to a guy that came from a team that couldn't block a tic tac toe game? I hope a return back to his lone star roots will serve as incentive to play at the level he did when he was playing for the 'Horns. Julius Jones and Marion Barber formed quite a tandem last season. Once rushed for over 1,000 yards, while the other rushed for 15 TD. If you figure in the local boy Tyson Thompson(which I'll talk more about in #3) I don't know about you, but I see a 3-headed monster coming. The last season of the "T.O. Show" ended up leaving most people wanting a refund. Now he's recuperating after having major surgery on his hand/finger. Now, the $64 million question: How many balls will T.O. drop this year? I have the weirdest feeling that he won't drop a single one.

3. Special Teams- The Cowboys did themselves more than just a favor by re-signing Mat McBriar, they solidified a key weapon in the battle for field position. After being seleced to his 1st Pro Bowl, expect an even more stellar year for the aussie from Hawaii. The return game should be interesting next season when Tyson Thompson rejoins Miles Austin. They both had high averages, leaguewise and with his kickoff return in the playoffs, Austin should garner as much, if not more attention when the ball is kicked.

Answer 2

I think they will, this past season they did below their expectations because of the team chemistry (T.O.). Now they have a year together under their belt. I think T.O. is going to realize that if he mess' this up than he is going to be unemployed for good!!! Romo is going to bounce back from his 3/4 of a rookie season! Like it or not the Cowboys beefed up their OLine by adding Davis (keep in mind he is 6'6" 366lbs) and by resigning Columbo! Romo will have over 1600LBS blocking for him upfront! The Cowboys will make a strong push for the SuperBowl!!!!!!!

Answer 3

the cowboys will be a threat this next year, but i cant see them winning it all no matter what happens in the near future via free agency and draft. they have to learn a new system that their new coaches establish. TO will continue to drop passes, possibly cause headaches if he hasnt matured by now, and might even be injured cause his age is catching up. they will be good though, there's no question about that.

Answer 4

I think so especially with the new coach he knows how to run the 3-4 defense which is great and our offense is only going to get better romo is a good Qb he knows what to do and with a healthy owens its Suberbowl time

Answer 5

This easily befell to me yet no longer with cowboy boots ... it replaced into ordinary boots. It particular does take a lot of God's grace to save your cool in this problem. yet God is sturdy to grant in abundance at the same time as necessary. Now i visit snigger about it in spite of the undeniable fact that it wasn't in the slightest degree humorous 50 years in the past at the same time as it befell because i replaced right into a teenager. favor I say more beneficial ... lol

Answer 6

The Boyz all the way now that Parcells is gone

Answer 7

i guess so.... Tony Romo must be solid and i guess that is it to go all the way. The defence was good indivisually but they have gotta work as a team.....

Answer 8

HELLZ YEAH !!!!!!! i think they would do better with parcells but it dont matter they are good enough without him to win their 6th super bowl in 07

Answer 9

Hell no they have Bum's son as the coach. Bum's son has never won nothing he get you to the playoffs and then get beat.

Answer 10

as long as Romo didn't lose his edge with that missed field goal than they should be fine
