The Cowboys didn't blitz much in last week's preseason opener against Indianapolis. But with Denver running more and starting quarterback Jay Cutler's quick release, the Cowboys blitzed. Denver was missing one of its offensive linemen and mixed in some second-teamers in the first half. But Akin Ayodele, Bradie James, DeMarcus Ware and Williams blitzed several times, forcing some rushed throws.
"You can see this is [what] this defense is predicated on, getting pressure on the quarterback," Ware said. "We want to make big plays earlier than first and second down to create those longer third- and-10s and third-and-7s."
