The Film Don't Lie: Cowboys

A weekly look at what the Cowboys must fix:

The St. Louis Rams might not be built to run a hurry-up offense without Sam Bradford, but they should notice the success the Tennessee Titans had against the Dallas Cowboys' defense by speeding things up.

The Cowboys allowed only two first downs and 68 yards in the first half, but the Titans came out in the second half with the no-huddle and scored on their first two possessions. Tight end Delanie Walker scored on a 61-yard pass and caught 10 passes for 142 yards, which should raise concerns about the Cowboys' ability to slow a tight end.

The Rams had 11 first downs and 246 yards in the second half without huddling.

"The challenge is just getting lined up," Cowboys safety Barry Church said. "They do that mostly to see what defense you're in. You definitely have to show your cards more. It got us out of disguising things early and they were able to pick us apart a little bit. Once we settled down, I thought we did a better job against it."
