Podcast: Cowboys' Crayton on training camp
July 24, 2009 2:13 PM

Cowboys wide receiver Patrick Crayton says meetings are the worst part

of training camp. He thinks Dallas is better without T.O. and also talks about Tony Romo and the rivalry with New York and Philly.

Audio link: http://sports.espn.go.com/stations/player?id=4353917 (7:31)

That's not what he said on NFL Live today. Funny how on the "nationwide" TV show he says controversial things, but then on a relatively obscure radio show he flat out says Dallas is better off.

As with most Commanders they dress in skirts for the game and share their feelings. However, I am going to have to hurt your feelings to inform you you are wrong!

Campbell sucks and you know it. Portis is becoming a cry baby headache, not to mention older. Springs is gone, so I dont see how your cb's will be better?

Fat Albert will be pushed around and tired out before he can make an impact. He got monster paid, so his hunger will be left at the dinner table.

Skins 8-8, BTW you will start 6-2 as usual and will bring big promise before the fall.

The Skins going 8-8 is very generous of you to say. I'd say 6-10 or 5-11.

the skins have been giving your team a run for your money or flat out beating your cowboys the last 4 years or so..we have a winning record against your team in that time spand,so we are very relevant..it would not be shocking if we swept you this year..SERIOUSLY!!

Don't get banned for making dumb statements....

 

[skinswin]

Nothing shocks me in the NFL.

I really thought we'd win it all last year. I'm typically very reserved as a Cowboy fan....Our talent-level was head-and-shoulders above the rest of the division last year.

But we tanked......

I can see us finishing anywhere between 4-12 and 12-4. This team is a mystery to me. When the Cowboys are on....they're as good as it gets. But we have too many games where we seem satisfied to go through the motions.

Until the effort is more consistent, we'll be an also-ran.

I think the Skins have a decent shot at being good. If Campbell continues to improve, they'll be as good as any team in the division.

glad to see a cowboys fan give a fair assement of his team and hated rival..I agree with ya!!!

 

[bayeslife]

SORRY to tell ya,but we matchup well against your team and the eagles to..i can see us sweeping the eagles again and added your cowboys to the sweep list,we do struggle against the giants..our D is better than yours,and if my O takes some steps forward we will be a extremely tough out for your football team..

I'll admit this: The Commanders' defense is a pain in the ***. BUT they are still lacking a pass rush.

As for everything else... eh. The Cowboys haven't been very good against the division as history shows, but it's a new year and we're stocked with talent and some pride, so we'll see what happens.

the teams in the nfc east all have a team they struggle with,its weird how the eagles can move the ball all up and down the field on your D,but can barely get a 1st down against my Commanders,and how my skins struggle against the giants but your team plays them pretty well..GO FIGURE!!

The idiotic post of the century. Washington's D is better than Dallas' D? LOL OK!

 

[AsthmaField]

dude we were very close of sweeping you last year,my D will be even better and my O should be very much improved based on playing together in the same system..AGAIN we should sweep ya this year..SERIOUSLY!!

Actually... we were very close to sweeping you guys. Had Romo not targeted T.O. 5,000 times trying to keep him happy and had they actually handed the ball off to Felix Jones (a player you guys have yet to see), the Cowboys would have taken both games without a problem.

Because it is a rivalry game, you never can tell (see the Cowboys 1 win in 1989)... but unless you switched out QB's this offseason, your offense is going to keep you down.

the skins D is better than your cowboys D..THATS not hard to see..wakeup!!

Last season, they are.

But we'll have to wait and see right now. The skins lost Springs who was the best corner they had next to Carlos Rogers, and then there's the awkward switch for Orakpo which teams are definitely going to target. Safeties are basically solid, though I'd like to give Horton another year to see if he's legit.

Cowboys obviously have the better pass rush, but with new starters in CB, LDE (actually idk which position Igor is), LOLB, ILB, and SS, I can't make a fair assessment on how they'll perform. I have to see it be done instead of reading stats and what's on paper.

dude,springs was injured most of the season the last few years and hasnt played much..but we still had 1 of the top defenses in the league..our secondary is better than yours with or without springs..

you are showing yourself to be a homer.

Even if that's true, that's only half of the team. Please tell us how the skin's offense compares to the Cowboys offense, and then discuss again how this will all translate to a sweep of the Cowboys. I'm sure we'd all love to hear your take on this.

WELL my friend its like this.1)Its hard for cowboy fans to face the fact the Commanders defense is much better than your D,the skins D comes to play more on a consistent basis than your D..2)my offense always seems to be able to move the ball on your D lately not counting the game at fedex last season.3)with campbell having a year under him in jim zorns system,i expect major improvements in his game.4)last but not least my team plays with more fire more passion than your cowboys when ever we meet in the last 4 to 5 years..I really expect us to sweep you guys this year!!!

And...what did that get you? What was your final record? What was your final standing in the NFC-E?


With Quincy Campbell throwing the ball...that won't scare anyone!

Seriously! No joke! (well, it guess it is a joke because it's your team)...



:dissskin: (good dog, Gibbs! Damn good dog...)

well, let me just say this..if you want to win a championship you better have a great D,my D is closer to being great than yours..once my O gets going more consistently in the passing game we will be very difficult to beat..my running game is already as good as any team in da league..bottomline if campbell improves we can beat anybody!!

Hmm...I don't see much praise for your offense here...probably because there's not much to brag about. When you've got a QB whose best year boasts 13 TDs and 6.5 yards per attempt, I can see why it might be difficult to win games.

Sorry, but your team doesn't impress me much. The might split the regular season with the Cowboys, but a skins sweep? Only in your dreams.
