3 more days to get T. McClain, R. McClain, Melton back....let's hope they make it back, need to get healthy and stay healthy. Why couldn't we have the bye week early for once, like this week, like so many times before..LOL...

He must have been watching film of Brees and his head discombobulated. I have a feeling a lot of defensive players are going to come up with phantom injuries so they don't have to face the Saints offense.

Lmao!!!

I've been saying this all along : Crawford needs to be a DT . He's playing out of position , he has no pass rush moves or speed but he's excellent at bull rush and point of attack . Hatcher said it himself before he left . This front office needs to make the switch .

Be a lot easier to do that once Spencer and Lawrence are back in the lineup.

He may do just that for this game because we are thin at the DT spot right now. Hayden, Bishop, and then ___________? Everybody else is hurt or suspended, etc.. I can't think of anybody else on the practice squad...

And if they do he'll never be moved back. Watch and see . He will have a good game from his natural position .

I dunno at 6'4" 284 lbs he needs a couple biscuits to take on those big guards play after play. He may wear down when they start to lean on him lol
But as a 1 tech he may cause some havoc for a while...

Not for this team .... when you put lambs on the field instead of lions ... these are the results.

even free agents pick up this disease.they are perfectly healthy in their previous gigs but pick up multiple injuries the moment they step in dallas,we really are cursed.

I don't know... I just don't like laughing about head injuries.
It's a personal sore spot within the family so I admit I'm sensitive to such things, but Head Injuries are always serious.

I never got to know my own father because of a head injury when I was 3.
I had to get to know someone who didn't believe I was me.
I took care of him for 30 years and not one day did he ever know I was his son.

I don't wish that upon any person to suffer through-
or their children.

I'm sure McClain isn't going to that extreme and my post may seem a bit dramatic, but like I said:
It's a sore subject.

Carry on!

Wow. I'm sorry to hear about your situation. I lost my father when I was 12.

I wasn't joking about head injuries, I was more making a joke about my immunity to any bad news about the Cowboys these days. When I hear of an injury or a player missing practice, it doesn't come as a surprise.

Apologies if I offended you or anyone else.

I'm definitely not looking for a pity-party (not saying you're throwing one).
I hear concussion and I immediately worry about the player's long-term health.

They do continue their lives after Football and some I'm sure would trade every dollar they ever made to be a whole person rather than a rich half-person.

I apologize for bringing the thread down.
