Week 4 Analysis: 4-0

Eh...It's just the Rams.

This week and next week are weaker points in our schedule. Although, when the schedule first was released, it looked like Big D had it tough. But teams that were "supposed" to be good have fallen off the chart. It's kind of funny how how a tough schedule turns into a weak schedule after 3-4 weeks. So, here's the review:

Offense:
Romo not only did it in the air, he did it with his feet. He rushed for 24 yards which includes one of the craziest plays of the year so far. The snap went over Romo's head, he ran back to recover it (most QBs would have fallen on it, but Romo picked it up), picked it up and ran it for a first down. Not bad for a 3rd and 3.

Patrick Crayton!?!?!? led the team with 7 catches for 184 yards (2 TDs). Jason Witten was 6 for 71 with 1 TD. The player was held to 3 for 33.

Julius Jones got the majority of the handoffs. He managed 52 yards in 13 attempts. Marion Barber III was right behind him in yardage with 50, but did it in just 8 carries.

Again I stress, it's just the Rams.

Defense
Newman played. I hope he's at 100% now. If not, rest him up. I'd rather him be 100% at the Patriots game than at the Bills game next week. Henry was injured yesterday. The diagnosis was a sprained ankle, his status next week has not yet been established. Maybe one day we'll get Newman and Henry in the same game.

Ken Hamlin had the lone INT in this game. Jacques Reeves led the team in tackles yesterday, although I'm always more comfortable when the tackles leaders aren't DBs. The defense surrendered a total of 187 yards. But hey...it's just the Rams.

Stat of the game:

3rd down efficiency
St. Louis 3-12
Dallas 8-13

Next week we're on Monday Night football. Big D @ Buffalo.
