Talked to a bunch of #Cowboys who REALLY want to get on that London-bound plane and get back at this. @1053thefan
Short version of @DezBryant week: He's a grown-up. Runnin his football. Runnin his biz. Runnin his life. He needs advisers, not 'handlers'

Todd Archer‏@toddarcher 4h4 hours ago
Other than saying he would make the trip to London and see how he feels as week goes on Tony Romo did not comment

David Helman‏@HelmanDC 4h4 hours ago Arlington, TX
Jerry says it doesn't look like Ro McClain has much to worry about re: injury. More concerned with T. Crawford. MCL injury.

Calvin Watkins‏@calvinwatkins 4h4 hours ago
Jerry Jones said he expects Joseph Randle to make the trip to London and his roster status isn't in trouble.

Jon Machota‏@jonmachota 4h4 hours ago

Dez: Being a Cowboy for life makes sense. "I love Cowboy Nation & they love me. Gonna try to make it right & bring that Super Bowl here."
Dez Bryant on missing Tony Romo today: "Truthfully, of course, I missed him. But I believe in Weeden, too. I believe in him."
Dez Bryant on situation w/ Randle: "I had my talk with him. There are certain things you just don't do. We’re good. That’s my little buddy."
DeMarco Murray on Arizona putting so many guys in the box: "That was probably the first time we have seen it. I'm sure it wont be the last."
DeMarco Murray on the 100-yard streak and what it meant to him: "Nothing. I'm just worried about winning. We didn't get that done today."
DeMarco Murray on Tony Romo's absence: "Brandon led us. He did a good job. As individual players, we've just got to make more plays"

Josh Brent will travel with Cowboys to London, Sean Lee will not
Jerry Jones: Josh Brent has been "very diligent in his return. ... we've got a chance to get the benefit of a changed man in a lot of ways."
Jerry: "Some of those seats [on plane] really make out into a nice cot...Gene will sit up in the bulkhead. Romo will lounge on the way over"

Arizona coach Bruce Arians: Patrick Peterson "erased" Dez Bryant for most of the day. "Up until the end, he was not a factor in the game."
Fighting words RT @michaelflorek In Arizona locker room, somebody yells, 'Hol up, Hol up...' Peterson: 'We dem boyz! Hell yeah, we dem boyz'

Larry Fitzgerald‏@LarryFitzgerald 3h3 hours ago
@dallascowboys @JasonWitten Have the utmost respect for him. A true gentleman, HOF player and brand ambassador for our league.

Dez on if he wants Randle on the team: "of course. He's a great player. You live and you learn. I've made my mistakes"

Dez Bryant on decision to change agents: "It ain’t about a contract. It’s about me branding myself and being an icon for these kids."
Joseph Randle on relationship with Dez Bryant: "I think it’s the same as it’s always been. We can’t let the media break us apart."
In 63-second interview Joseph Randle said "keep grinding" or "grinding" seven times. No mentions of process, though.
Jerry Jones did rule out cutting Joseph Randle.

Calvin Watkins‏@calvinwatkins 4h4 hours ago
Several players said Joe Randle-Dez Bryant issues are over and done with.

Dez's nose grew a full inch there.

That means it is about the money.

 

[revospeed]

That makes me feel better abut Crawford if it's just a sprain. Can Okoye play this week or is there a certain week he can return?

Jerry always provides the quotes

It should be. I was baffled everytime he said he'd be a Cowboy for life no matter what. This will probably be his only big payday with his back issues.

 

[Staubacher]

Nice to hear Dez talking branding and contract right after a big home loss.

 

[CowboyStar88]

Nice to hear Dez talking branding and contract right after a big home loss.

I'm sure the questions were asked and he answered. No big deal he is going to go home and think about the loss. They don't ever put the questions in the tweets just the answers come on now

 

[windward]

Nice to hear Dez talking branding and contract right after a big home loss.

he was asked about it most likely. Big whoop.

 

[anava]

he was asked about it most likely. Big whoop.

He was asked about it and it isn't really a big deal. BUT when you are in the middle of a 2 game losing streak and dropping balls left and right you should decline to discussing it. Especially when you previously said you didnt want the in season distraction and are done with it until the offseason. All about timing

 

[big dog cowboy]

Arizona coach Bruce Arians: Patrick Peterson "erased" Dez Bryant for most of the day. "Up until the end, he was not a factor in the game."

That simply isn't true. Weeden was more responsible than Peterson.

I want ARZ in the playoffs in there place with a healthy Romo.

I don't think it's affecting his play at all, so I'm not going to worry about it.

You and me both.

Yeah they are funny. I want them with a healthy Romo too.

Not me -- if the Cowboys play Arizona in the playoffs I'll take the game in Dallas thank you very much.

You underestimate the Cardinals.

They beat the 49ers with a career >%50 passer journeyman QB in Stanton. I have MUCHO respect for Arians. They find a way to win.

To wish to play the Cardinals IN ARIZONA is just false bravado to me.

I would agree but there's been a lot of rumors out there about it. So I'm glad he discussed it

I would welcome it no matter the venue. Arizona didn't put us away until the 4th quarter with the way our offense played that game should have been a lot worse than a 4 point game. I'll give them credit for winning thus far but to act like they are some invincible team is ridiculous.

I don't think they are invincible at all...

What I am saying however is they find a way to win. Example: they won a couple of games with Drew Stanton who is right there with Weeden in terms of career QB rating. The Cowboys on the other hand when in the same position faltered.

I chalk it up to Arians being a REALLY good coach.

And I'm saying is I wouldn't mind playing them again no matter where it's it with a healthy Romo.

Drew Stanton is two hundred million times the QB Brandon ******* Weeden is so please, don't even go there

 

[perrykemp]

No he is not.

Stanton has a career QB rating of 67.

Weedon's career QB rating is 72.5
