Cowboys Starting Lineup... From My Eyes



I'm really excited about this up coming Cowboys season. By no means is this the most talented Cowboys team ever but they have enough pieces and hopefully a new chemistry to take the Lombardi Trophy back to Texas. Here's the break down of the starting offense with a few side notes for impact players who won't start.

QB- Tony Romo- The only question is if he will cut down on his mental mistakes with out Big-Play receiver Terrell Owens.

HB- Marion Barber- Hopefully this healthy Marion the Barbarian will truck stick his way to another big season. Speedy Felix Jones and all around Tashard Choice should round out one of the best running trios in the league.

FB- Deon Anderson- Not the best full back in the league but he is still a decent player and probably the best full back since the Moose.

WR- Roy E. Williams- Now the 'Boys No. 1 receiver, he should have a bigger year this year with a full offseason to work in the offense and more time to get a mental link with Romo.

WR- Patrick Crayton- Not a true No. 2 receiver but he should do very well in the offense while he is being left alone while defenses focus on Witten and Williams. Sam Hurd and Miles Austin are being looked at to round out an unproven receiver core. They have potential and may have break out years.

TE- Jason Witten- Arguably the best tight end in the league. I actually think he will have his first 100+ catch season. With a weapon of his caliber, the other offensive players should see alot more situations to help them accelerate this team.

TE- Martellus Bennett- A tight end who could be the most althetic player at his positoin to play for the Cowboys and should have a break out year as well.

LT- Flozell Adams- A great player of his position. The only thing anyone has bad to say about Flo is his mental lapses that results in False Start penalties.

LG- Kyle Kosier- A decent player at his position. The least you hear about him the better he plays. The only time his named is called is for a mistake.

C- Andre Gurode- Maybe the'Boys best offensive lineman. Really great at his postion and really started to shine after the Albert Haynesworth incedent.

RG- Leonard Davis- Possibly the most talented lineman on the starting line. Can play four positions on the line and is a great right guard.

RT- Marc Colombo- This position is up in the air for me and Colombo may lose this job later in the season.

That rounds out the offense. Tune in tomorow for my look at the defensive side otf the ball.

  1. Hmmm.. the list looks good. I know some of the positions on the game of football but not exactly depth details. I don't have a favorite team. I lean more towards basketball...
