Are the Cowboys ready for Chicago’s defensive front?

IRVING — The Cowboys’ offensive line hasn’t been the sturdiest bunch as quarterback Tony Romo could probably attest. Against the Buccaneers, the Cowboys yielded four sacks and Romo was hit four additional times, raising concerns about the team’s pass protection.
“At times it was good, other times it was too much penetration and we just got to continue to shore it up,” Cowboys coach Jason Garrett said. “There were some good challenges, some good matchups yesterday in the ballgame. They won some and we won some.”
Now, Dallas faces Chicago, which features a strong defensive front. In a 23-6 victory over St. Louis on Sunday, the Bears punished Rams quarterback Sam Bradford.
Bradford was sacked six times and as of Monday morning Chicago led the league with 14 sacks. Romo might want to take note of that. Then again, maybe he’d rather not know what he may face.
