Dallas Cowboys Preview Week 10

GO COWBOYS!!!


Week 10 Matchup: Dallas Cowboys vs New Orleans Saints (in NO - since they're the 2nd team listed) - GAME TIME - Sunday, 7:30 PM CST

Oh when the Saints come marching in... with Drew Brees. 

Drew Brees (Saints QB) - this guy is an Elite QB. To keep it brief, he is a top 5 QB - holds a few NFL passing records and seems like a stand up guy outside of football. He played all last season without his head coach and still went 7-9. He is a leader and someone our Defense will need to put a lot of pressure on! Similar to Romo, Brees always makes a play and finds his WR's.

Saints Offense - Darren Sproles (RB) - dude is playing very well - if he's healthy - he will play this week! Jimmy Graham (TE) - well this guy will tear up our Dallas D if we let him! Must stop Jimmy Graham! 

Tony Romo (our QB) - We know Romo can throw. He's proven that he can hit his targets (WR's, TE's, RB's). He will have a lot of pressure from the Saints Defense. The Defensive Coordinator for the Saints, Rob Ryan, was our DC last year. He knows Romo well and will use that intel to attack our Offense from every angle. This will be a tough test for our team! We really need Dez Bryant and Jason Witten to have monster game! 

DeMarco Murray (our RB) - He should play this week. He is still not as dynamic as we all hoped, but we have to have somewhat of a Run Game this week. If we use Randal more, I am fine with it. The Saints D is ranked 25th in the league against the Run. Sadly - this is a part of our team no one has faith in. 

Dallas Defense - DeMarcus Ware is coming back!!! (This is our "Sack Leader" - means he puts a lot of pressure on the opposing QB and tackles him before he can throw the ball) Our D has had a few great plays this season. They have kept us in the game for the most part, but they have also had some big mistakes. It will take perfection to defeat Drew Brees and the Saints. So, Here's to Perfection! :)

Standings... We are 1st in the NFC East at 5-4 with all the other teams in our division creeping up on us! This game is a must win! We have to stay above .500!

GO MAVS!!!

Mavs beat the Lakers Tuesday night, 123-104!! That's what I'm talking about! 

They did lose to the OKC Thunder last night, but that's because Kevin Durant is a beast. We have to find a way to guard him in the future! (near future

~ Dirk is still amazing, Monta Ellis is keeping it real with an avg of 24 Points Per Game, and DeJuan Blair is proving to be a great Center (we got him when we didn't get Dwight Howard - dude who passed us up to go to Houston).  

Mavs are 3-2 on the Season... here are the upcoming games.

Dirk Nowitzki ~ Dallas Cowboys Free Agency ~ Texas Rangers ~ Selection Sunday ~ Loveland, CO

GO MAVS!!! 27-36  (wins - losses) Dirk, Dirk, he's our man... if he can't do it... no one can!!!  Well, only 5 other guys can and have.  Dirk is now 6th on the all time list of NBA players to score 30,000 points . This is a crazy accomplishment. He's played over 1,300 games in his 19 year career with the Dallas Mavericks.  His commitment to this team and to our city has been life changing for many. He does a lot in our community through the Dirk's Heroes Foundation . Fundraising and giving grants to non-profits in our community and around the world that are making an impact in the lives of children and families in need.  Back in the day, the Mavs games were fun to watch with the " Three J's " - but we didn't win a lot, and we never thought we would make it to the playoffs consistently, much less to the NBA Finals. ( Three J's: Jimmy Jackson, Jamal Mashburn, Jason Kidd - here's a funn...

The Masters, in all its beauty ~ Texas Rangers ~ Dallas Mavs ~ Get Outside

The Masters The ultimate Bucket List item and one of the ones that exceeded my expectations. If you play golf, have a family member who makes you watch golf or take naps to golf, you understand that The Masters is the holy grail of golf tournaments. It is the only PGA tournament that is played in the same location every year, Augusta, Georgia.  Thanks to very dear friends of mine, I had the chance to walk through the azaleas, experience the serenity of Amen Corner and watch the players skip golf balls across the water at Hole 16. If they allowed people to sleep on the grass, I would have stayed forever.  We were there for two days of practice rounds, which is fun because the players are relaxed and cut up with one another. They cancelled the Par 3 Contest, which was sad, but just being there was the most wonderful feeling ever. You can't take phones in, so I even called my parents from the phones at Augusta, just to do so. We also didn't realize you could bring in a real camer...

Week 13: Dallas Cowboys vs. Minnesota Vikings ~ NFC East ~ NFL logo quiz

GO COWBOYS!!! 10-1 1st in the NFL 1st in the NFC EAST Thursday, December 1st 7:25 PM CST on NBC We've NEVER won 10 consecutive games. Ever.  We lost our first game of the season to the New York Giants, by one point. And oddly enough, they are still the ghost we're trying to run away from and secure our playoff spot with only 5 Regular Season games left.  Here is what the NFC East looks like going into Week 13...  The Minnesota Vikings... what should we fear?  The Vikings are in the NFC North Division. They currently trail the Detroit Lions for a spot in the playoffs. They have only won 1 of their last 5 games, which makes this Thursday night, showtime game, a must win for the Vikings!  4-1 at home, The Vikings meet the Cowboys who are 5-0 on the road. Oh how I love those odds! Forever in our favor this season.  Quarterback situation. Sam Bradford is the starting QB for the Vikings. A guy they got in the o...
