Mat McBriar roughed up

Text messages from the field shortly after the blocked punt in overtime indicated that Cowboys punter Mat McBriar was pretty hurt on the play.


He was carted off the field after being hit while the punt was blocked.


Indications are that Bobby Carpenter missed his block on the punt, allowing McBriar to get laid out and injured, possibly ending the season for the Pro Bowl punter.



Stay tuned for more details.

it was curtis's man who blocked the punt. Carpenters man would have if curtis's man didn't.

Oh no!

Did not know this.......dang this will hurt us bad!


No it won't. Come on, we have much, MUCH bigger problems. This want matter at all. So what instead of pinning a team inside the 10 every once in a while we just give them the ball at the 20. Thats about it. This is sad becuase McBrair is a nice guy and consistent but its not going to cost us any games.

I listened to Norm on the post game and nothing was mentioned bout MM being out for the year... They just said he had a contussion on his foot. Infact, Mickey said that..

Its a weird play, both Carpenter and Curtis didnt even try to make the block and Davis didnt make an attempt either. Looks like the Cowboys were asleep at the wheel and figured the Cards were going to set-up a return and not try to block.

I thought Mickey said xrays were negative and it was just some right foot cushion which wasn't a major deal.

I think it was Tony Curtis...but Justin Rogers let his guy go as well.


But yes....Bobby Carpenter SUCKS! Is there any way we can sue Parcells for this guy????????

Inexcusable. Our guys play with no heart. They need to wake up and fight. Soon.

Someone failed to block worried about getting downfield. I refuse to look tonite at it so I don't know who is guilty. STs and the players are.

Even Bruce Read doesn't have the right tackle responsible for blocking the guy coming between the left tackle and left wing.
