No surprises on the Cowboys' part, but Michael Vick is the Eagles' No. 3 quarterback, which means he cannot play until the fourth quarter if Philadelphia wants to use Donovan McNabb again.

Vick practiced during the week after missing last week's game with a quadriceps injury and the Cowboys prepared some during the week for Philly's Wildcat offense. No need to wory about that now without Vick but DeSean Jackson could take a snap or three.

On to the inactives:

Cowboys - Safety Patrick Watkins, cornerback Cletis Gordon, linebacker Jason Williams, guard Montrae Holland, center Duke Preston, tackle Marc Colombo and linebacker Curtis Johnson.

Eagles - cornerback Geoffrey Pope, safety Quintin Demps, tackle King Dunlap, center Jamaal Jackson, tight end Martin Rucker, defensive end Darren Howard and defensive tackle Trevor Laws

Cowboys Stadium update

Here we are about an hour or so from kickoff and the roof and doors to Cowboys Stadium are closed.

Maybe Jerry Jones listened to his players. Some of the players publicly asked for the roof and doors to be closed so as to contain the crowd noise to make it difficult for Philly's offense. We'll see.

For as many people the Cowboys can jam in here, the stadium does not get that loud. I think part of the reason is people are awestruck by the surroundings. Or maybe the rich folks don't feel like cheering all that much. But then Texas Stadium wasn't viewed as a truly difficult venue because of the crowd noise either.
