The Dallas Cowboys now have two dominant outside linebackers.
While sacks leader DeMarcus Ware has been to four consecutive Pro Bowls, coach Wade Phillips says Anthony Spencer, the linebacker on the other side, played as well as anybody he's been around the second half of last season.
Spencer didn't have a sack until the 11th game last season, but then had had six in the last six regular season games and added one in each of the Cowboys' two playoff games. He had 77 tackles in those same games.
Ware says Spencer is starting off in camp where he left off last season when the 2007 first-round pick finally became a full-time starter.
Spencer, though, says he still feels like he has "got a long way to go."
