The Cowboys 34-3 Thanksgiving beat down of the New York Jets give them a 10-1 record for the first time EVER. Steven recaps the turkey day game and hands out not one, but two Game Balls! One on offense to RB Marion Barber and one on defense to CB Terrence Newman.
In Cowboys news, Owner and GM Jerry Jones talks about the Thursday Night Game on NFL Network and his role in trying to bring the Network and the cable companies closer together. I think he takes a shot, but he covers himself pretty good.
The Good:
RB Marion Barber: 103 yards on 13 carries and one touchdown gives him a game ball. Not just for running over 100 yards, but for running the ball effectively in the second half when the Cowboys were trying to run out the clock.
The Good: Part II
CB Terrance Newman: I believe that Newman is almost at 100% with his foot and is starting to play like the corner we know. That interception he returned for 50 yards was a thing of beauty. Newman had a perfect break on the ball and he showed his speed and outran everyone to the end zone. Something he could not do in Week 5 during the Buffalo Bills game when he intercepted Bills QB Trent Edwards. Healthy is good!
The Bad:
2 minute defense: Right before the half, the Cowboys allowed the Jets to march down the field on a 13 play drive that setup a 40 yard Mike Nugent FG. I know I am being a bit picky here, but that drive should never have resulted in points.
The Ugly:
4th quarter defense: Are you kidding me? No ugly this week, as the Cowboys dominated the game from start to finish.
