sounds like last year.


That's what I am trying to get people to understand. I am not saying Dallas can't win because they will but... what happens if T.O. or Crayton go down?

You can't put all your eggs in one basket thinking Felix Jones, a rookie, will just take is place. The more weapons Romo has the better.

Yes Witten is, Felix is rookie and how many rookies make that much of an impact right away? He needs to learn how to play the game at the NFL level.

This guy cries about us not getting Joe Horn and then has the nerve to call Jerry Jones dumb. :rolleyes:

Consider the source... by now, I expect to read something asinine whenever I see his name on the post...

You think we can have just two active wr?

Especially in this cleveland game. The whole game plan is going to be uptempo and throw it all over. They have the size to slow the running game down. Their weakness is depth in the secondary.

We have to have at least 4 wr active for crying out loud. Now that doesnt mean witten, curtis, jones wont go out wide or motion into the slot, but they are not wr.

The eagles have more starting corners than we do wr.

they need to figure this out super quick. Or we could end up in a hole in september.

Like your thinking but injuries are part of the game and some are just too hard to over come.

Thanks! That is what I have been saying the last hour now. Losing Hurd was bigger than most think.

By the time another "weapon" is brought in and gets up to speed, our wounded "weapons" will be ready to play again...

I guess you think we can sign a WR this week, and he'll be ready to produce in Cleveland...

So what do you suggesting stacking pro bowlers at every position??? We go out there and play and worry about injuries when/if they happen.

If Owens goes down, what available receiver will replace his productivity within this offense?

Answer: no one.

If Crayton goes down, Miles Austin and Sam Hurd's combined can replace Crayton's output when they're healthy.

What everyone must understand that
  • you have offensive options which are already on the roster.
  • you can't plug in just anyone in an offense and expect certain results
  • injuries which are not season ending are just that, not season ending so there is no reason to panic
It's not about eggs. It's about not messing up the receipe for success with the wrong ingredients.

Okay, what are our alternatives other than Jefferson and Amendola already on the roster? Who will we plug in for Austin and Hurd? With respect, will that be Terry Glenn and Joe Horn?

Defenses will double T.O. and Crayton will have to win One-On-One match-ups consistantly. :bang2:

You think this is something new? You think Hurd, Austin or Stanback would have changed that?

Sure those three are a better option than Jefferson, Amendola or whoever else can be brought in from the street but none of the guys on team or on the street would command so much attention to change what you just described.

No, can't have steak on every plate but you need more that Jefferson, Amendola to name a few.

Hurd played well last year and knows the offense. It is a big loss.

I'm not trying to be *****y, even though it probably reads that way. I'm just waiting to read some viable, REALITY type options because Terry Glenn and Joe Horn aren't season long or even half-a-season long alternatives.
