    This is probably going to be exactly right, our offense looks like shit so far this year. Yeah its preseason and everything but they are not ready and it shows.

    Rex should be able to come up with a few blitz packages that will confuse the young Cowboys OL. The key will be to shut down Witten and the RB's catching passes out of the backfield because I think Cromartie and Revis will do a good job shutting down Austin and Bryant. I don't think the Cowboys will be able to run well on our D.

    Offensively; Sanchez will have to play as well and maybe even a little bit better than he did against Rob Ryan's defense last year when we played the Browns. Limit the mistakes and now with Burress hopefully some of those FG tries will be Touchdowns instead. I think our receivers match up well with their corners - who took a step back last year. We should be able to run the ball and have some success doing so against their front 7.

    I think it will be a close low scoring game with Sanchez hooking up with Holmes for the game winner.


    That being said, does anyone think its okay to start felix jones? I have him in one of my fantasy leagues and want to sit him, but I'm not sure if that opinion is overly biased

    Every running back against the Jets are not successful. See Adrian Peterson last year.

    Sit him

    I'm sitting Jones but then again I also have S.Jackson, Ray Rice, Beanie Wells and R.Bush, Not sure which combo I will use but not Jones.
    I am tossed up on Austin, I have Colston, Holmes and M.Thomas starting right now with Austin and Lee Evans on the bench.

    I expect the offense to start off slow, but I think the D is going to be in ballhawk mode and we'll pick Romo at least once or twice. That said, don't be surprised if Shonn Greene goes into rape mode and gets atleast 120 yards rushing.

    My prediction on Sanchez is that he'll have a pretty good completion precentage to end the game but probably won't throw more than 190 yards. He'll start off slow too, but we'll see him beast in the second half as usual.

    I think we win the game 21-10

    You have to sit Austin. Revis shuts down every single #1 WR. I sat Andre last year vs Revis and it worked out pretty well.

    On topic, hopefully the offense gets it going right off the bet with some quick throws, get Mark in a good rhythm. Like others have said, if the offense comes out slow, it'll be a very close game.

    I get stuck watching the stank-ass Cowboys every week. The only corner they have that really fits the Ryan-style scheme is Mike Jenkins, and while he's decent at jamming wideouts, he can't recover very well. Even if Newman is back for this game, he is never really ever back from injury and he's a terrible fit for the man coverage that Remus wants his guys to play.

    Elam being familiar with Ryan's scheme has helped them a bit in preseason, but their real strength is their front 7. Jay Ratliff is a beast, and Remus Ryan's use of Ware (moving him side to side) has been pretty effective in the limited time I've seen them. Bradie James and Sean Lee are average to above average in this scheme.

    As far as offense... well, people say they sucked last season, but they were able to win games with Kitna under center. Fact of the matter is, Garrett tanked the beginning of last season to get Wade Phillips fired. It was so obvious it was pathetic. An unfortunate result (for Cowboys fans anyway) was Romo getting his clavicle crushed during the tank job.

    But their receivers will give every defensive back we have, not named Revis, plenty of trouble. And Witten is still Witten, which means either Witten or Eric Smith or both will walk away from the game with a concussion. And if Felix Jones is really healthy for the game, he's faster to the edge than most runningbacks in the league - and Demarco Murray has shown flashes that he can be an immediate contributor. Their offense is no pushover, even if their O-line is extremely inexperienced. That rookie Smith is a fucking monster, and Doug Free surprised the hell out of everyone on the blindside last season.

    But Tony Romo is like Jekyll and Hyde most years. He can light things up both when he's got time and when he's under pressure, but he will also blow things up into a diarrhea dump just like his idol Brett Favre, it just depends on what day you catch him on. We will get pressure on him, that's without a doubt, but if we leave Witten in single coverage with a meat head like Smith or Pool(e) all game, they'll slice us up underneath.


    I'll say:

    Jets - 21
    Cowboys - 17

    Should be a good, exciting, close, first game of the season. Jets pull it out in the end.
