After the Cowboys victory Monday night, the sports world was buzzing about two players: Tony Romo (cracked ribs) and Sean Lee. Lee was present throughout the game, making plays and recovering the game winning 4th quarter fumble.

On Sunday, Tony Romo showed that he can be as tough as they come while playing through a broken rib and a punctured lung.

But there have been a lot of knocks on him as an NFL quarterback over the years since he busted onto the scene.

Dallas is about to run into some interesting times. ESPN reported last night that Miles Austin will likely miss 1-2 games with a hamstring injury. Dez Bryant is still questionable for next week. There goes your #1 and #2. Who does that leave? Let’s take a look at the current depth chart:

Wide Receiver 1

  • Miles Austin
  • Jesse Holley

Wide Receiver 2

  • Dez Bryant
  • Kevin Ogletree
  • Dwayne Harris

Let’s see that catch one more time! How Miles managed to catch, land, and lunge forward into the end zone is beyond me. Incredible effort. Check it out below.

Sunday night was an emotional night in the Meadowlands.  To be fair, it felt a bit like the Cowboys and their battered secondary/inexperienced offensive line were running into a buzz-saw. They were. If you listened to the local media today you’d think the Cowboys world as we know had ended. Just SO typical of Dallas media, but that’s for another day.

You need a good chuckle to loosen the nerves. Nothing like pre-game jitters. Check out this Kanye/Jay-Z remix dedicated to all the Cowboys enemies.

It’s time. The 2011 NFL Season has begun. Are you ready? The Cowboys are.

If you missed Tanner’s helmetless run in Sunday’s , here it is again.

Unfortunately, the new rules state that as soon as a runner loses his helmet, the play is dead. On top of that, the Cowboys were flagged with a five yard penalty. The announcer made a classic statement: “That’s the best five yard loss the Cowboys have had in a long time.”
