Later tonight, the Cowboys and Texans will square off at AT&T Stadium to end the preseason with a bang for both teams. For the Cowboys, the game will serve as another showing in front of their home crowd before it counts against the Giants.

The Texans will be fighting for state supremity, and enter with a defensive line that should be fired up to face the immovable wall that is the Dallas line.

The Cowboys’ offensive line has not had much playing time as a full unit this preseason, and have also not had the opportunity to block for Tony Romo and Joseph Randle on a consistent basis.

They will likely get this task against the formidable Texans’ front of Vince Wilfork, Jadeveon Clowney and J.J Watt.

Many games are won and lost at the line of scrimmage, and I expect this Texas showdown to continue the trend.

Let’s just hope Romo, Randle and McFadden come out before things get chippy – we all know a preseason win on the road against the Cowboys would be the crowning achievement of the year for Houston.
