Sean Lee and rookie J.J. Wilcox forced first-half turnovers for Dallas' revamped defense before the Oakland Raiders rallied past the Cowboys for a 19-17 victory in their exhibition opener Friday night. Lee flattened Matt Flynn on a delayed blitz on the opening drive of the game to force a fumble deep in Oakland territory in his first action since a season-ending toe injury last October. Wilcox intercepted an ill-advised pass from Terrelle Pryor in the end zone to thwart a promising Raiders drive. The Cowboys forced just 16 turnovers last year, contributing to the firing of coordinator Rob Ryan, who was replaced by Monte Kiffin as the defense moved from a three-man front to a four-man front. Dallas has forced four turnovers in its first two preseason games under Kiffin.

Wilcox really made a push to win the FS job tonight Leary solidified his grip on the LG spot WRs all but set already. Only question is do we keep Armstrong and 6 WRs. No one else is worth a spot Camp QBs looked horrible. Selvie was invisible after a big HOF game Sent from my HTC Vivid
wilcox showed some good and some bad, but you can definitely see a lot of potential there. i was a little disappointed in b.w. but he was playing on the outside when i really noticed him and i don't think he'll ever be that guy, so i'm not too worried about it. selvie will show up again, i'm fairly sure of it. our starting run d looked really really good tonight so i'm pretty happy about that.
