Dez Bryant: Preseason is frustrating, but ‘we got something good going’

Last night the Dallas Cowboys took on the Miami Dolphins in Sun Life Stadium in Week 3 of the preseason. Most commonly known as the dress rehearsal preseason game, both teams played their starters for most of the first half in order to get the crucial reps needed prior to the start of the regular season.

In the end, the Dolphins took home the 25-20 victory over the Cowboys, but the final score in not what matters at the end of the day. What is important is the fact that the Cowboys offense did not shine the way they would have liked to last night.

Although the Dolphins defense certainly hung tough, Tony Romo and Dez Bryant were not able to show off all of the work they have put in this offseason as they were essentially stifled from the start.

Romo finished the game with a solid stat line as he threw for 87 yards on 10 for 18 passing. 32 of those yards were hauled in by Dez Bryant, who finished the game with four receptions.

Although his playing time was limited because it is the preseason, Dez Bryant was optimistic after the game about the Cowboys’ prospects this season.

Dez won’t have to wait much longer for real game action as the NFL regular season begins on September 7th.
