Week 1 Win

Felix Jones

The kickoff to the 2008-2009 NFL season for the Dallas Cowboys started off with a bang! With the team looking like they picked up right when they left off last year the Cowboys defeated the Cleveland Browns in a week 1 win of 28-10. Other then having around a dozen penalties called the Cowboys looked sharp on both sides of the ball. One area of concern that can be taken away from the game is the injury to starting running back Marion Barber. Barber left the game with bruised ribs but it does not look like a injurt that will keep him out. Back up rookie running back Felix Jones came into his first career game and was very impressive that included a rushing touchdown. With a positiive performance from both sides of the ball the Cowboys look good moving into week 2 were they will meet division rival and Terrell Owens hater Philadelphia Eagles. This week I will be keeping up with the media and seeing how the progress of Barber and his ribs is and also Quarterback Tony Romo who got stitches in his chin after a hit to the face.

Media surrounding the Dallas Cowboys 2008-2009 Football Season

I will be following the media surrpunding the Dallas Cowboys throughout this coming football season. The hype for the up and coming season that kicks off on Sunday is at a all time high. The cowboys are picked to be a Superbowl contender and have hopes in meeting that goal. This sunday they play the Cleveland Browns in week 1. With both teams expected to be playoff contenders the game should be very exciting and interesting. One aspect of the game that is going to be looked at is the play of Tony Romo and Terrell Owens. Both players were all star selections last year and are expected to start right where they left off last year. If the cowboys defense doesnt come ready to play and put pressure on the Browns offense the season of high hopes for the Cowboys could start off in a week 1 loss.
