Why are we so Obsessed with People No Longer on Our Roster? - Dallas Cowboys Forum

Sportsbabe · 08-24-2006

We have more dialogue about the Skins, Denver, Atlanta, etc, than we have about Carpenter, Hatcher, Canty, Fasano, Crayton.

With TO not playing Saturday, who should we work on getting the long ball to? Should we still work on ball control with the running game? Lord knows it needs plenty work. But just in case TO isn't health enough (which I doubt), we need to find out how we're gonna make our passing game a threat.

It's only natural for there to be a buzz about things that are happening now. Look how much interest Owens has generated all over the country.

We've already talked Fasano to death (the pages of 2-TE offense stuff) and Carpenter has also chewed up massive bandwidth. For now those guys are struggling and not doing much.

When Fasano, Carpenter, etc. make their first real play, you'll see things pick up again.

I have a suspicion that the coaches are working on it.

Is this a Quincy vs. Hutch thread?

Does Hurd or Rector have cross the middle, catch the ball in traffic, yards after the catch speed? And won't Witten become a more prominent part of the passing game? I don't think his role should be diminished anyway.

Good post !

I hope we can finally say the 5 starters for the OL play on Satruday, this mixing and matching is driving me nuts.

I hope Green does well returning punts cause with the defense we will be putting on the field the other team will be puning to us.

Skyler, poor Skyer. I think his butt is too big. I've never seen a return specialist with a badunkadunk like that

I haven't seen anything from him that tell's me he's gonna be the next "Dante Hall". Bill said some positive things about him but I just haven't seen it. I thought every time he touched the ball would be a possible big return. I'm very disappointed. I thought this was his area of expertise.

I'm sure we'll get some more continuity Saturday for the O-line. Looking forward to it.

I don't think he is the next Hall either, but if he is half of Dante I'll take it.
