And that that last point can't be stressed enough. The defensive wretchedness has been obscured by the Brad Johnson One Man Circus, but I think this pretty much sums things up. Keep an eye on rookie cornerback Michael Jenkins, wearing No. 31 (irony not lost on Roy Williams, by the way):
That's almost as embarrassing as what Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was saying after the Cowboys drafted Jenkins in April:
"I told Adam if we drafted a corner it shouldn't be interpreted in any way," Jones said. "When you look at the possibilities we have with Jenkins and Adam, it's pretty exciting."In case there's any confusion, "Adam" is the currently suspended "Adam" Pacman Jones, who was as close to making a play on Derrick Ward as Jenkins. Feel the excitement! Jerry compels you!

That was an "OLE'!!" tackle! Whoops! Didn't mean to get so close Bro!
He must have thought Brandon Jacobs had the ball....
I was reading the article about Mike Jenkins tackling effort. I want to say all cowboy defensive coaches should be fired immediately. I say this for two reasons. Look at how the secondary lines up, giving wide recievers 8 - 10 yards cushion on each and every play is insane. What other team in the league does this. When was the last time the fans saw the secondary challenge a reciever from any team. Geez, in the words of the diet pepsi commercial," Wake up People. " What is this business of a special team that does not seal off the outside edges on a kick off or punt return. I was taught to seal off the edges and funnel everything back into the middle where you have more help, but whoever is in charge of the special teams continues to allow returners to get to the edges of the field without opposition. Brad Johnson is a disgrace, Bollinger is no better. Jerry Jones caused this mess by not getting a capable backup. I don't like Daunte Culpepper but at least he can throw the ball downfield which is more than I can say about the other two. T.O. needs to shut up and play ball. When he stops dropping passes that a high school player can catch, he can talk, until then he needs to shut up and play ball.
make a statement jerry jones. cut Jenkins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that was downright embarrassing to watch.
Ummm, didn't Wade take over the DC duties???
NEW YORK GIANTS BEST
thats embarrassing. That guy should be cut. Getting run over is one thing, but not making any effort.. that inexcusable. You could put some couch potato out there and he'd make more of a difference than that. They pay you millions man! get your act together, or quit the game
