2. Rob Ryan's Defense - in his second year with new players, will we finally see why he is a good defensive coordinator.
3. Offensive Line - can Romo be protected.
4. Wide Receivers - with no Bryant and Austin, who will make a strong case to be the 3rd option.
5. Running Game - is Murray really the answer.
