League of attrition. It's about who you have left in December and January.

If he misses significant time this season due to injury it wouldn't surprise me in the least. Backs have a hard time after a season with as many touches as he had last year. Honestly, the fact that we gave him the ball so much last year was probably a pretty good indication that there wasn't any intention of bringing him back unless it was cheap enough to limit our risk.

.. and that's what I've been saying .. I like Murray and completely understand why he went for the money in Philly. I would have done the same thing if I were him. However, I don't blame the Cowboys at all for not overpaying him either. Running backs are too likely to get injured and their decline is usually without warning and abrupt.

I have a feeling that whenever a player doesn't finish his smoothie, Chip takes it.

Holy crud! You guys got me laughing today! Lol!

Props, guys. I've been smiling all day...
Finally got my PC back from repair, Dez is healing, we're 2-0 and we just ate some fowl last week and I believe I'm looking forward to a second avian meal this coming week.

I read on Philly.com that Ertz said he was the leader of the team and the most vocal! Huh?? If Demarco is your leader and most vocal and he just got there you have issues. Murray is a quiet guy and shy so I found that strange!

It's pathetic that people are cheering Murray's injury. I am disgusted. Those of you who cheered are no better than those Philadelphia fans who cheered when Irvin was injured.

This is player's livelihood. He has done us no wrong.

You saw him out on that field on Sunday? He was a raging maniac three quarters of the time.
He looked like he was barely holding himself back from committing multiple personal fouls throughout the game.
He even got in one of his monster blocks by cold cocking a blitzing LB towards the end (I know that made him feel better for about 15 seconds).

It was indeed strange...

I don't see a lot of people cheering the injury.

I think he was just embarrassed in front of his old team.

I haven't seen anyone cheering. More like told ya so. His lively hood? Yeah he is guaranteed 21m, so I think he is set. Lastly not being upset because a guy pulled a hammy is 1000 light years removed from cheering when it looked like a guy was paralyzed.
