Dallas Cowboys Host Carolina Panthers
We are inclined to say “no”.
The offense with Romo can compete with any team in the NFL. Romo didn’t throw any touchdowns in the game (one interception) but completed 19-of-23 passes for 226 yards in the 21-14 win.
Stafford tied a career high with five touchdown passes. Jason Witten needs six catches to join Tony Gonzalez as only TEs with at least 1,000 catches and 10,000 yards….
Oh, and for those counting – executive vice president of personnel Stephen Jones was sure everyone would after the Cowboys decided not to pay Murray’s big money – McFadden has 623 yards to Murray’s 515 with the Eagles.
Arguably the most anticipated game of the 2015 Thanksgiving schedule pits the Carolina Panthers against the Dallas Cowboys. For live streaming online viewing, CBS All Access, NFL Game Pass, Verizon NFL Mobile and Sunday Direct Ticket subscribers can use their respective websites or mobile apps to watch. However, some wonder if this Carolina team might be too tough to take down, or if they’ve shown their weaknesses. Carolina is also tied for third in sacks with 31. The linebacker looked a little winded on the return, eventually settling for a 17-yarder that led to the third of Graham Gano’s four field goals to put the Panthers up 23-3 at halftime.
“Cam Newton is getting better as the season progresses”. He will be that guy for them again this week against a fairly poor Dallas defense. They rank 11th in total defense and 15th in points allowed with 22.8. Bryant needs two touchdowns to join Hall of Famers Bob Hayes and Michael Irvin as only Dallas players with 60 career receiving scores….
This is the time of year Romo tends to get hot, mid-November right around the annual Thanksgiving game. Last Week, Carolina turned the ball over 5 times giving fantasy owners of Cam Newton giddy. If Romo and the Cowboys go off today, suddenly the National Football League has a new storyline to follow as the Cowboys get back into the NFC discussion. Defensively, the Panthers yield 234.6 yards in passing and 103.4 yards in rushing. “The best thing about it is the other guys on our football team are seeing it”.
Darren McFadden vs. Carolina front seven: McFadden has hit the century mark three of the last five games.
Lucky Whitehead averaged nine yards per punt return last week and Bailey made his only field goal attempt.
Romo will be better today and that spells trouble for a Carolina defense that has been rock solid this season.
In the meantime, receiver Ted Ginn is listed as active.
Dallas defensive end Greg Hardy had a quiet game against his former team, finishing without any tackles.
