Five things I expect to see Sunday

1. The Cowboys use some misdirection plays against an overly-aggressive defense. It wouldn't surprise me to even see them try a fleaflicker or a reverse or two. Heck, I wouldn't even be surprised if Terrell Owens attempts to hit Terry Glenn deep.

2. The Cowboys offensive line commit at least five penalties, with Flozell Adams getting flagged at least twice.

3. Pat Watkins play like a rookie. Make no mistake. I like Watkins and applaud Bill Parcells' decision to start him. But there will be a lot of his friends and family in the stands and that's sure to be a distraction for the fifth-round player from Florida State.

4. Shaun Suisham miss at least one field goal. This team just can't seem to shake its kicking problems.

5. Roy Williams have one of his best games as a pro. Something tells me Williams is due for one heck of a season. He'll feel more comfortable with Watkins at free safety, and Parcells hinted this week that defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer has finally figured out how best to use the former Oklahoma star.
