Lee will be back out within 3 games

I was wrong ....... it took him 4 games.

I'm not that concerned about missing Sean Lee. Maybe that makes me wrong or a bad fan. But, Dallas played all last season without him. I am more worried about the injury to Hitchens in conjunction to Lee being out. If Hitchens were a full go, I'd feel ok with him at Will and #52 at Mike.

I think Butler would've had a tough time being active if he was healthy. I liked what I have seen from him on the field but with Dez back---Dez, Williams and Beasely are easy actives. Lucky will be active as a returner so it would be between Street/Butler and the team seems to favor Street for whatever reason.

Remember, we never would've made the trade if Dez didn't go down.

That means a Wilson-Gachkar-Wilbur trio if he doesn't tough it out.

This year he has been questionable on the field and off

Whats the record for a WR playing full time and having only 3 catches? I think Street might own it now!!

Ive seen WR'S catch more balls in the wishbone then this dude!

It's not just Street, it's TWill and Lucky Whitehead as well. Either they stink or the coaches/playcalling just doesn't know how to take adavntage of what they can offer. That 2nd one is most likely.

it always seems to take Dallas a long time to get guys invovled in the offense in a way that takes advantage of their skillset.

Look at Lance Dunbar. I think 99% of Cowboys fans saw him as the odd-man-out coming into the 2015 season. Then they used him as a pass catcher and holy cow, this guy can contribute!

I don't get it. We heard so much about Christine Michael fitting the scheme, but we haven't seen much of it on game days. We heard the same about Rod Smith and now Trey Williams... let's see what we get there.

Great point about Dunbar. So if we are going by that math Cmike and Escobar have a couple more years until they can produce for us!

Maybe its time to see what Nzeocha can do. Not crazy about Wilbur in coverage.

I think Hitchens plays. I don't think Nzeocha gets any PT on defense. We tend to slowly work players in.

Unleash Trey Williams. He's the only guy with RAC ability in what's left of the backfield, especially in passing game. Need a Dunbar replacement and McFadden is running well but injury history is a concern, let's get another contributor.

I'm sure both Hitch and Ro will play, problem is how well or more importantly, how long. Aggravate those injuries, which they are both known to do, and Cowboys are looking at nickel or dime all game long instead of plugging in another true LB. Just get the guy ready is all I'm asking. This team is brittle.

I'm with ya. I'd want to see him and Wilson see plenty of PT. Think about it the Giants used the rookie Unga against us on opening night. We need to take chances with abled bodies vs gambling on hurt ones.

He is listed as questionable, but I still expect to see him a little limited in the game. You will see the other three quite a bit I suspect.

In think he's limited at full health. He hasn't been the same guy this season.

Ro knocked lee out, and caused the hitchens injury, and took himself out too ! So he took out all our starting lb's single handed !
Glad we resigned him!

it is part of the process !! takes years to evaluate and figure out how to use a player effectively .

it is a business decision on his part. A journeyman like him cant take chances on a late-season injury.

Staubacher · Nov 14, 2015

Gotta blame mgmt building the heart of your defense around a guy always hurt and a head case.
