Rob: I think it's just a matter of getting enough pressure, being aggressive and getting in the right position to make those types of plays. This defense is certainly capable; last year after four games the Cowboys had 11 takeaways (9 interceptions, 2 fumble recoveries) that led to seven scores. Here's what Wade Phillips said on Monday: I think we all think this defense is way better than last year's, but I'm getting concerned that there's too much hype going on. Isn't defensive coordinator Christian Parker going to have issues like all new coaches do?
"They usually come in bunches but we just haven't had them. We started off really well last year, but it hasn't happened yet. But I think it will come. We have too many talented guys that have ball skills."
