I didn't see Tank out on the field all fourth quarter after it looked like he got off under his own power and was OK after running into Sam Williams on that play the Rams OG got hurt deep in their own territory. Wonder if he's out next week.

Given that it's a bye after next week, I'm wondering if Parsons will take off next week to heal as well.

So no Parsons and no Lawrence for next week... is that the consensus?
Let’s see how Micah is mid week. The way he was rushing the passer at the end of the game, he might have a Sports hernia.

He should see a trusty personal doctor before he sees team doctors regarding that. Because he's a gamer and won't personally deal with a season ending injury. He's the type of GOAT that would play through a torn ACL like Brady. He'll be like... give me surgery and a nice long rest in mid February after we hoist the Lombardi.

Dallas team doctors are known to be some of the best in the league. And I am sure they would welcome a second opinion.

No, it was in the next to last series, the play immediately before the Hooker INT... long after he suffered the groin strain in the 2nd quarter.

See post 124 on page 7 in the post game twitter feed for the interview.

They'll both be ready to do a sack dance up and down on J Hurts next week. This is one game that I'm sure has been circled on their calendars!

Parsons said after the game...he can pass rush, he just can't run all over the field like normal. I think they will spot him as a designated pass rusher. I don't think Tank has an injury that would keep him out.

Didn't they have him drop back in coverage one play towards the end of the game too?

Because Greg Olsen kept yammering about how soft tissue injuries like the hip/groin muscle area get worse with rest and not better. When the adrenaline is going you can push through it for a quarter or two if necessary, but when you cool off after the game it gets worse long before it gets better. My guess is he's held out next week, heals up at the bye and comes back fresh and healthy after.
Greg Olson is no Tony Romo.

Did you just materialize this whole idea in your head and then say, “is that the consensus?”

Are you ok?

This is a valid point, I hate to see Lawrence and Parsons miss the Eagles game. Their long term health should be their prime concern, and a healthy combo of those two late in Dec is a must with the way it looks in the NFC east. This is all about the playoffs, nothing else matters.

Greg Olsen probably thinks Scam Newton's a good quarterback. Lol

Yeah, based on recent history, I don't think it matters getting a home game in the playoffs or not. If we don't win the division, we don't get a home game, but we'll still get in as a wild card and get a lot of fan support wherever we go except for possibly Green Bay because of the cold. But we'll get plenty of fans @ the 49ers, Tampa, Minnesota if they win their division [since they play inside], and even yes... Philly at Philly has a lot of Dallas fans. We are equally as likely to make the Super Bowl by winning 3 road games vs. 3 at home or 2 at home 1 away, etc.
