Good. I need points from AB to win my fantasy football game and if they man up a FS on Witten AB will be very open.
But I still don't know what any team saw Thursday night that would have made them comfortable with waiting a round or two for the offensive lineman they wanted. ---Todd McShay
We just converted half our LB to DL. We have a 30m starting DL, it better be pretty friggin good.

I'm sure he'll be sucked into some play-action.

But don't you have to actually run the ball for play action to work? Cowboys haven't exactly done too well in the run to really scare anyone with play action.

I agree!

It will be like faking to Hambrick. Not too effective.

Excellent. That's exactly what Bill wants you to think. Everything is falling into place...

From what I have seen our running game has been pretty good,But penaltys and Parcells being possesed by a passing demon[most likely explanation to me}have not allowed them to work.

Our running game has been fine. We ran the ball fine vs the Vikings, but abondoned it cuz we got behind. We ran the ball fine against cleveland till they started dropping 1 or both of their safeties in the box. Why do you think our passing game worked so well? Cleveland went all out to stop our run and it opened up our passing game. If the Skins go all out to stop our run we'll burn them with the pass too.

Minnesota game -- got behind, no choice but to pass.
Cleveland game -- Passing game was very effective. Stupid penalties put the team in passing situation quite often.

I don't think the running game has really had a chance to establish itself. It could stink again, but I don't think there is enough info to say for sure.

Witten is going to burn Taylor all night, this will be great for my fantasy team. Rookie against the beast, doesn't bode well......

Taylor will eventually be a big time stud in the NFL. Think Ed Reed with more height and weight. Lets hope we can take advantage of the rookie tonight. Although with the ball in the air he is about as good as it gets going after it.

Exactly Rack. Why all the "experts" in the media keep saying Dallas doesn't have much of a rushing attack is beyond me.

We have yet to see Parcells really committ to the running game this season. We may see it tonight.
