McCarthy did two things I like. He took a chance playing LB Brandon Chillar instead of Brady Poppinga. Jason Witten caught 7 for 67 yards, but didn't kill us. They took T.O. out of the game. And the Packers pressured Romo. With three sacks and two intentional grounding penalties.
It was a loss to be sure, but the Packers did some thing right. The second long pass to Miles Austin was the "dagger" and that's Tramon Williams. It was 3rd & 20. Tramon is going to play a lot now with Harris hurt. Brian Griese is without his #1 WR Joey Galloway so Williams will play against against reserve veteran WRs Michael Clayton, Ike Hilliard, and Maurice Stovall. Clayton had 5 catches last week and Hilliard had 6, so they do get the ball. Last week Griese put the ball up 67 times against the Bears so Tramon will have his chances. I have a little more confidence in Williams than Bush or Blackmon, but not much at this point.
