I noticed that Wilber and Hitchens were both on the field together before the injury to McClain. I think Carter was out when they were both in together.

They mixed and matched them too much for my liking. I don't know if Carter's broken finger has something to do with that. But I'd rather keep the same 3 and have Wilbur on the bench. Even though anytime I'm about to bury him he makes some plays.

I've heard people say that Wilber has been terrible, but to me he's been OK; however, I've thought since early in the season that Hitchens is better than Wilber and Carter's better at SLB which he plays when Hitchens is in the game.

Thinking the Cowboys' starting linebackers next year are Sean Lee, Rolando McClain, and Anthony Hitchens.

I would be OK with that; although, I expect Durant to return. His injury will probably keep him from getting any significant offers.

Hitchens at Will, Wilber at Mike and Carter at strong? Wilber is pretty physical and I'd like to see him more in running situations and let Carter/Hitchens handle passing downs.

Carter was beasting before the injury. Now, I couldn't even tell you if he played last two games.

We will miss Ro more than Crawford. We don't have any more decent LBs left on the roster. DL we can get by when Coleman comes back.

I'm waiting until tomorrow for the official word before I burn any brain cells worrying about either player.
