Dallas (2-0) win, endures another bad break
The Cowboys lost Weeden’s only start previous year to the Arizona Cardinals after Romo suffered two transverse process fractures.
In the 3rd quarter of the week two game in Philadelphia Romo took a hit from an Eagle defender leaving Romo laying on the field holding his left shoulder.
One of the most widely known rivalries in the National Football League is that between the Dallas Cowboys and the Philadelphia Eagles.
Whatever Marinelli is doing to the Eagles will be studied by others, but it won’t be executed any better than the Cowboys did Sunday as they scored a huge victory. In fact, DeMarco Murray finished the match against the Dallas Cowboys with a measly two yards on 13 carries to show for his efforts.
Like it or not, Cowboys fans, this is the lineup you have to work with for the next few weeks. Second-year wide receiver Jordan Matthews has been noticed more for his drops than the 16 receptions for 182 yards he’s had through the first two games.
It is just about the worst case scenario for the Cowboys.
BUCCANEERS 29, SAINTS 19: Jameis Winston passed for a touchdown and ran for another, and visiting Tampa Bay (1-1) held on against mistake-prone New Orleans (0-2). It wasn’t a very hard scheme; they ran four down linemen, three linebackers. At one point they had 9 carries for -14 yards. “Nobody on this team is deterred or in any way giving up in any way”. “I’m the first one to look in the mirror and say I’ve got to do better”.
In the immediate aftermath of Romo’s injury, Jones said the team hadn’t considered signing a backup to Brandon Weeden yet.
Bradford threw another interception in the fourth quarter when the ball bounced off Zach Ertz’s hands and J.J. Wilcox intercepted it.
The Eagles (0-2) were favorites to take the NFC East title away from Dallas, but look more like a team that will contend for the top pick in the draft than the playoffs.
That climb starts next week against the Jets.
Kelly didn’t have a lot of answers or immediate solutions for what’s ailing the Eagles. That comes down to the offensive line executing.
“Offensively, we weren’t in sync”, Murray said. “I don’t think the running backs even really had time to assess if there was a hole”. Bryant is expected to be out for more than a month with a broken right foot. Cutler was stiff-armed while trying to make a tackle on an interception return and landed on his right shoulder, though the team said he left the game because of a hamstring injury. Romo would end up going to the locker room, escorted by medical personnel, and would later come out with his left arm in a sling. He lost a fumble when center Jason Kelce snapped the ball early in a shotgun formation.
Tom Brady passed for 466 yards – the second-highest total of his career – and three touchdowns to lead New England to an extraordinary 40-32 victory in Buffalo. “Surely we’re not going to have to go in and reinvent our techniques on our blocking, because of this football game”.
“All I’m anxious about is winning”. He gave up a near-touchdown to Gavin Escobar that put the Cowboys on the one yard line.
