Cowboys 27, Jags 20
(game story)

Cowboys finish off the preseason at 3-1 with win over Jacksonville. Some thoughts:

*RB Tyson Thompson nailed down a roster spot with another strong performance (57 yds rushing, 2 tds). Hard to believe he's the first player raised in Irving to ever make a Cowboy roster.

*The whole 1st-team offense looked pretty good...but remember, they were playing against Jacksonville's 2nd-team defense (the Jags sat most of their starters).

*Our first look at rookie defensive end Marcus Spears was positive. He had a sack in the 3rd quarter and seemed to be fitting in nicely despite all the time out with his injury.

*As for the quarterbacks, nothing spectacular to talk about. Drew Bledsoe did have the 40-yard TD pass to Terry Glenn in the first quarter, but other than that, a pretty average night. Drew Henson got a break when he came in in the 4th quarter. On his first pass, he was intercepted...however the play was reviewed and ruled that the ball hit the ground before the pick was made. I'm sure Drew still got his balls busted by Bill for the less-than-accurate pass.

Cowboys now have until Sunday to get the roster down to 53...interesting to see who stays and who moves on.

Regular season starts Sept 11 at San Diego...
