Time to digest
After having a bit of time to really take in everything from Sunday's loss, I'm not ready to throw in the towel just yet. I just hope that the Cowboys make some adjustments on both sides of the ball. Like I said before... I think the rest of the league knows exactly how to get to Bledsoe, and you can bet that Washington will bring the house Sunday night. We just have to hope that the coaching staff has something to counter it.
On the defensive side of the ball, QB pressure is the key. I was really surprised that secondary played so poorly, but there isn't a starting QB in this league that can't dice up a defense if they are given time. Put pressure on the QB and you will see a dramatic difference in the play of the secondary. Zimmer just has to put those guys in a position to succeed.
Maybe an opening loss is the best thing that could have happened to the Boy's. Hopefully it will serve as a wake-up call to the players and coaches entering division play. Let's hope so.

I agree, an opening loss could DEFINITELY be a good thing. All summer we (and Valley Ranch) have heard how incredible this defense is expected to be.
I think Zimmer et al needed a reminder that they're not top-3 YET. The talent is there, the scheme may need a bit of fine-tuning.
A slap of reality usually prevents complacency.
