Perhaps my memory is hazy, but isn't this the first time that Henry and Newman will be starting together against the Giants this year? I believe that when Dallas went to NY, that Reeves got the start with Henry coming in on Nickel situations due to his ankle still having issues.

I believe this is correct. Newman was hurt in the first one and Henry in the second.

I wonder if Newman is actually at 100%. The speculation on his injury was that it would not heal completely until after the season was over and it got extended rest.

I doubt neither is 100 percent, but I believe you're right. They should both be able to start.

It's a good angle for a solid, strategic story about the game Sunday. I'm not sure how they could work in the Jessica angle though.

Newman and Henry have not been as helathy as they are now at any point this season. Should be an upgrade for us.

Converesely on the oher side of the ball:
A. Ross is starting now, and if Madison is healthy, he plays in front of of Webster. McQuarters has been the nickel in the slot with Madison out. With Madison back in the starting lineup, and foloowing T.O. all over the field to press him up, might be considered a serious upgrade from where they were on Week 1. It will be identical to what they had when Dallas played NY in NY in November.

I'm sure it could go like this...

Terence Newman, elite CB extraodinaire, missed the first game with a foot injury. Anthony Henry, very solid CB in his own right, missed the second game with an ankle injury. With the pair finally lined up in their right spots, they should be able to cover the Giants big receivers like the paparazzi covers Jessica Simpson and Tony Romo.
How's that?

:starspin I agree, I don't think either one is 100%, but it will be nice to have them both on the field though.

It's missing a TO slam. Otherwise, I'd swear JFE wrote it.

Newman was inactive in the first game.

Henry played a little bit as a backup in the second game (he broke up a fourth-and-goal pass to Burress in the fourth quarter).
