Pretty much a ho-hum game. Nothing exceptional to write home about.

Few decent plays on defense. Not much at all offensively other than a couple of plays here or there. Its not much, but the one play offensively I was really pleased with was the 3rd and 1 running play where they banged it right up the middle and got the first down. We had a short yardage offensive set against a stacked front, and they made a nice physical run to get the first down. We've struggled a ton with those exact same plays for several seasons now, so that was one positive.

Hopefully alot of the injured guys can return vs San Diego and for game three.

Will post more tomorrow.

Best thing about this game is if nobody got seriously injured. And a couple of the kids looked okay.

Yep arkin had no bad snaps,only Wilber got injured and a number of young guys played well.

Hanna, Albright, chappas, Crawford, Hamilton...

Albright is now two years removed from his knee issues and looms to be a better player than last year already.

I am happy to see szcerba play well and hear that the staff really likes him. If he makes it, looks like we will have four good tight ends. Reminded me of the ravens tight end we picked Up in 05. I forget his name...Brett...something....

Jerry reached for the another big splash with Claiborne in a year that they were just as good CB"s in the later rounds

Note to you, crack is bad for brain cells and brain function in general. Pretty stupid comment. The guy was the concensus best defensive player in the draft.

Brett pierce that is who I was thinking of.

Pierce was 6"5 250 and szczerba is 6"6 260.

Looked really similar.

I thought szczerba was a power guy at the line. apparently broaddus says no.

Szczerba not the strong part but can get up field. More athletic then you think. Productive hands.

Listening to all three local sports stations and they are all killing the team.

Excellent.

I hope San Diego beats us 27-0.

2012 pre-season Cowboys-Chargers game thread

I think the final count is 7 starters out tonight. Austin, Livings, Costa, Witten, Ware, Ratliff and Spencer.

A number of key reserves also still out.

Claiborne expected to start and play the majority of the first half.

Cowboys have an open roster spot after releasing that scrub RB, probably sign a veteran C tomorrow or Monday would be my guess.
