Listening to the post game show and the comments from Jerry, Broadus and others around Valley Ranch, that it's McFadden's job to lose. They just trust him more in pass protection.

How many are genuinely excited about that? To go from Murray now to McFadden, a guy who has terrible YPC over the years, only carried it 200 plus times 2 times in his 8 seasons. Can't stay healthy.

We are going from filet mignon last year to Taco Bell this year.

Which will have a big domino effect on this team.

I'm excited as hell about this season.Looking forward to seeing what Randle,McFadden or whoever the starter turns out to be,can do. And I think I'll wait until I get to the restaurant and the meal is actually served before I decide if I'm eating Filet Mingon or Taco Supreme.

Cowboys have taken a risk at RB and on special teams. We will have to wait and see if the rewards are enough to make the risks worth it.

I am concerned about both areas as our special teams hasn't looked so special this year. You can't judge the RBs completely without all starters on O as a healthy starting O line and Dez bringing a double team can open a lot more running room. But the injuries and pass protection concerns are troubling.

The uncertainty will make the season all the more interesting! Maybe if we can just keep our guys healthy by the first regular season game, we will have smooth sailing. Pre season has been tragic for a couple teams already.

I just drafted Joseph Randle in the 4th round of my money league fantasy draft last night and thought I got a steal.

Gonna be really upset if he's not the starter. Upset for my fantasy and my real team.

He'll be the starter and will get the bulk of the carries. I'd guess somewhere around 1000 yards and 10 TDs.

Game 3 is the game for thestarters, and ST should mostly sorted out by then also with game 4 cementing the ST. Remember they have 90 guys at camp and while I am sure there are 20-25 sure fire cuts after this game the other 9 will be figured out by PS 3 and 4

I see nothing from this game that suggests that McFadden will be the starter. Do they trust him more as a pass blocker? Probably. But that doesn't make him the starter.

I do think Randle needs to add more physicality to his blocking style though. If he wants to win it out right.
