ESPN-Werder: Cowboys uncertain Jason Witten will play vs Falcons

[punchnjudy]

Not a lock means he's playing. If they said "no bleep bleep bleep way he's playing," I'd figure it was 50/50.

 

[CxC1993]

He'll play.

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

If he's breathing, he's playing

 

[Miguelitomama]

Witten will play.

They won't sit him. Just grist for the rumor mill.

 

[Idgit]

has Witten ever missed a game?

Just the one, after the broken jaw.

 

[JohnnyHopkins]

They spent a second on Escobar, so now he gets to earn that spot.

 

[KingLerxst]

It doesn't matter either way. All the positivity in the world isn't going to save this season.

All the negativity in the world ain't going to save anything either.

 

[KingLerxst]

He'll play

He also insisted on playing in this year's season opener against the New York Giants after rupturing his spleen in the preseason.

Um ... I'll just assume Werder made a big typo here and he's not a total idiot.

has Witten ever missed a game?

Witten, who is known for his high pain tolerance, missed one game early in his career with a broken jaw. He also insisted on playing in this year's season opener against the New York Giants after rupturing his spleen in the preseason.

I've never seen a team hit as hard as this

 

[Boyzmamacita]

Has a team ever lost ALL of its best offensive players at the same time like this? Injuries are quite common in football, but this seems a little unprecedented.

 

[mattjames2010]

What next? Garrett out?

See that sun beaming down on his face in Philly Sunday? Dude probably has third degree burn.

 

[Junglist]

All the negativity in the world ain't going to save anything either.

Do you really get upset over a stranger's view on football? It's just the interwebz, dude. Take a Lamictal.

 

[Junglist]

You've been a member a month. Settle down.

I've actually been coming to this site since 2009. You calm down. It obviously upset you enough to make a comment.

 

[Romo_To_Dez]

This team is having some super bad luck with the injury bug to start the season.

 

[TheDuke]

If he was able to finish the game with those injuries, then he's playing in a game a week later. Only thing that will stop him is if he somehow makes it worse during the week of practice, and I doubt they'll allow that to happen.

 

[CATCH17]

At his age I would rather let him heal up and just go with what we have.

At this point... Why not?

I said settle down, there's a difference, and you are still not settling.

 

[Cowboy4ever]

What are the odds that even if he sits this game, he will still be called for illegal motion at least twice.
