I guess it's easy enough to find on the play by plays at the NFL.com's game day reports. The yardage is always included, and typically the type of pass.

Oh, so now I've got homework.

:(

I don't think the report will tell me how far the pass traveled in the air. Only what the final result is.

Well, I have tapes of every game, so let me send them to you for the second part of the homework assignment.

And no, don't even think about suggesting I do it.

I'm on 'vacation'.

You folks have some good stuff going on here...once again, If we want to win a playoff game, we've got to get both TO and Glenn involved and keep them involved, imo....and that means we can't afford to have guys dropping what should be routine catches, neither of them.

I agree I think we have to be able to get all of our weapons involved. Crayton and Witten as well. Right now Crayton has shown himself as the best hands on the team and the line has to do a better job than they have been doing in recent weeks. They seemed to be getting back on track in the 2nd half of the Alt game only to turn around and play lousy this past weekend against Philly.

We needed him last week and he dropped the ball. I have no confidence that that wont change when we need him in 2 weeks. Get rid of him and bring in a true receiver that wont get bored out there.

Oh, I'm all for that come next season, but that's not even up for consideration right now...we have a team, and he's part of it, and if things don't get better for him in the playoffs (for whatever reason), we don't stand a chance...right now, he's the man we need to get going.

Honestly, I don't even know who T.O. is this season. When he was with the Eagles, this guy seemed to have wet glue on his finger tips. The Roy Williams injury couldn't keep him from coming back to play in the Superbowl ...even at 80% he was just as good as most wide-receivers.

Take note that I'm not talking about his antics off the field ..that would take two posts to describe. But on the field, this guy was an Eagles' play-maker!

When I saw the highlights of the Eagles versus Cowboys game, I saw T.O. get the required separation from the Eagles defender, I also saw a ball that was thrown perfectly from a "pro-bowl" quality quarterback, but then I saw what should have been a beautiful reception go right through the hands of a receiver that should have made a catch made in perfect stride ...dropped!

Believe it or not, while I was relieved, I also felt bad when I tried to empathize with Cowboy fans. This guy (T.O.) has developed ordinary hands. One ESPN analyst stated that "T.O." has a good player and no longer an outstanding player.

In one of the highlights, it looked Like T.O. was actually "bickering" at Romo?! That's something that T.O. has had a history of doing.

Man, we can win without el dorado. You think Glenn, Barber, Jones, Witten, Crayton and Hurd are just standing around hoping to watch el dorado actually catch one and hang on to it. Man, el dorado not made a single positive difference in a game tha mattered. Glenns had a way bigger impact on this team and I would wager a mcy d's cheeseburger Wittens made more of an impact on our year then el dorado. Why think our hopes rest on this better then average at best receiver.

and while I for one see no way in the world JJ will bring TO back no matter how this season ends, I know I'll never convince any of TO's fans.

The whole post was great.

The above made me laugh a little though.... is that the same as the (prior to signing TO) "no way will TO become a Cowboy"

Do you really believe that?

I am not busting on ya... I liked you post... I am just curious?

I believe he had 2 TDs against ATL...
