The Cowboys Tony Romo had a stellar year in 2009 and Miles Austin (1,320 yards) emerged as one of the best receivers in the league, the Cowboys went 11-5 largely due to a defense that allowed the fewest points in the NFC (250). Coach Wade Phillips' 3-4 unit features linebacker DeMarcus Ware, whose 31 sacks over the last two years are the most in the NFL. There's cause for concern in Dallas over the team's spotty preseason, considering Romo threw for one touchdown and two interceptions and was sacked five times. Starting right tackle Marc Colombo and starting left guard Kyle Kosier will miss the season opener after receiving knee injuries. Veterans Alex Barron (tackle) and Montrae Holland (guard) will start against the Redskins.
The Redskins six-time Pro Bowl selection QB Donovan McNabb as well as Coach Mike Shanahan will make their Redskins debuts, but it's unclear whether disgruntled tackle Albert Haynesworth will see action — or even be in uniform — on Sunday night. The question for Washington this week is how effective Donovan McNabb will be after he sprained his ankle in a preseason game against Baltimore on Aug. 21. "Yes, I will be starting this weekend," McNabb said. "And I look forward to it." McNabb guided the Eagles to two touchdowns and went 0-3 against the Cowboys last year. Washington also fared poorly in two matchups with Dallas, falling 7-6 on Nov. 22 and 17-0 at home on Dec. 27.
