Local time where you're at. ("Where you're at"?)

Denizens, say sayonara&#160 to Mssrs. Proctor, Stanback & Brown.&#160 Their days with the ‘Boys are most certainly numbered.

Arlington Heights 28, Birdville 35

You can see the Pats-Skins writeup here, and I’ll have one for Texans-Favres probably tomorrow morning.

UPDATE:&#160 Here’s the write-up on Texans-ViQueens.

I don’t know anymore whether Birdville is called the Hawks or the Buffaloes, but Heights gave them more than they were bargaining for.&#160 Still, the Jackets blitzed one too many times, and wound up paying for it.

Jimmy Genius would have blown a gasket by now.&#160 As it is, I saw more animation from Coach Stay-Puf one one play Saturday night than I’ve seen in the last two years combined.

Romo was pretty decent despite not having Roy Williams or Sam Hurd, even though he did throw one pick that didn’t wind up hurting them.

Here are the notes:

* Ogletree looks good. Caught a couple of medium-length balls from Romo.

Oglegree will be the fifth receiver on this squad.&#160 Austin & Hurd need to start looking over their shoulders.

* Proctor, Stanback and Courtney Brown have just played themselves off the roster. Already on the bubble and having a bad preseason, Proctor was caught holding on a Folk field goal from 49 – C’boys wound up punting.&#160 Then he mishandled a snap to Kitna in the 4Q, turning a field-goal attempt into a punt.

Stanback caught a pass from Kitna, them fumbled it – SF recovered and wound up kicking the FG, tying the game.&#160 Brown failed to intercept a pass on one play, then committed a grotesque pass-interference penalty on the next play that gave SF new life at their 35 when they were going to have to punt from deep in their end zone.&#160 SF eventually drove to the winning TD.

Enough said, I think.

*Dallas’ new emphasis on hurrying to the line has already caused SF to call two timeouts in the 1Q alone.

In a strange, bizarre way, my guess is that it will also cut down on the pre-snap penalties.&#160 We’ll see if that bears out.

*Mike Jenkins – good open-field tackle on Frank Gore deep in their territory in the 1Q to prevent a field-goal attempt. Dallas D playing well tonight.

Well, the starters did, anyway.

* Newman, Mr. Perpetually Injured, is returning punts again.&#160 GRRRRRRRRR!!!!! (On the other hand, it worked this particular time – he brought it back 50 yards or so.)

Coach Stay-Puf says he’s gonna be part of the regular punt-return rotation (according to this report).&#160 There goes our cornerback depth.

* Romo threw away four points when he passed on 3rd-and-goal in the 2Q instead of running the ball in like he should have.&#160 He needs to start running again if he wants defenders to not sit on his routes & receivers.

Else, they’re just gonna sit on his receivers and pick off everything he puts up.

* First down SF, 11 seconds left in the first half – Singletary goes for the field goal instead of taking one shot downfield.&#160 Why?

Not that it mattered.

* Backups let a fourth-string QB march down the field for two scores.&#160 Pray for the health of the starters.

Yeah, Nate Davis may be a keeper – but for now, he’s still a fourth-stringer, and Dallas let him beat them.&#160 Phillips should’ve been a lot angrier about that.

* Top draft pick Jason Williams went down in the 3Q with a leg injury.&#160 If he goes down, the C’boys basically have no draft this year.

And he’s out four to six weeks (link).&#160 We’d best hope 2010 remains an uncapped year, salary-wise.

This week&#160 0-1.&#160 Overall:&#160 0-1

I did&#160 say they started counting, right?

The PFW will return Thursday or Friday, depending on when the C’boys play the ViQueens.
