Mincey ruled out

[John813]

Jerry needs to hire some African Witch Doctors to reverse this curse.

 

[Zordon]

This is getting ridiculous. Cowboys need to win the next two games but these injuries are ruining our chances. Matt Ryan having all day with those receivers is going to be brutal.

 

[xwalker]

Edwards or Gardner still available?

Put a cast on Gregory's ankle. He would still be faster than most humans.

 

[RunDMC]

We suddenly are looking at a worse pass rush Sunday than we had for any of the games in 2013 & 2014. Not a good situation at all when you need the defense to carry the day, but next man up.

Even with these injuries the pass rush is still far superior. An improved Lawrence, Crawford is a beast at 3 tech, Coleman has been very disruptive with his snaps, and Jack Crawford has held his own playing as a backup 3 tech and occasionally at defensive end.

 

[cowboyblue22]

well their plan to let everyone with injuries through training camp and the preseason be put in bubble wrap worked really well

 

[Kevinicus]

You know, the fact that the injuries are not season-ending actually sort of has me hopeful. It's like how you'd write it if you were scripting an improbably story. If we get by the Falcons and the Saints (improbable, but not impossible), I'm gonna start believing, I think.

I think that's more probable than improbable, myself.

 

[xvendettax914]

Well it's a good thing we went soft in the PS and held out so many players to save them from injuries. It worked so well!

I don't see how playing these players in pre season has any relation to these injuries.

Ryan won't have all day. Mincey really hasn't made much impact this season. Other than nearly costing us against the Giants with his numb skull penalty.

 

[AzorAhai]

This is starting to get comical. It's starting to remind me of the Texas Rangers. I'm still trying to decide if its the 2014 Rangers where it completely derails the season, or the 2015 Rangers where they were able to tread water, get healthy and make a run to win the division.

 

[pugilist]

At this rate lets just play the practice squad guys and 2/3 stringers, get somewhat healthy and go full bore vs. NE

 

[erod]

So let me get this straight.

Our starting DE is suspended, his backup has a concussion, and the backup's backup has a high ankle sprain, and the backup's backup's backup was limited in practice with a groin injury?

This is not good.

 

[DFWJC]

No pun intended

Why is beating Atlanta and a New Orleans team possibly playing without Drew Brees improbable? The Saints looked awful even with Brees healthy. Atlanta is 2-0, but they aren't exactly setting the world on fire.

 

[AzorAhai]

I don't see how playing these players in pre season has any relation to these injuries.

Isn't it obvious? If Dez plays in preseason his bones would have gotten stronger. Same for Romo. If Mincey plays, his brain is better prepared for the bruising it would take.

 

[yimyammer]

Concussion.

Aw man, **** this bull ****!! its just one after they other and you know its not gonna stop here, unreal way to start the year, there's only so much a team can overcome. If they can somehow make it to the playoffs given this absurd and seemingly never ending string of injuries, someone deserves a ******* medal!

 

[Alexander]

I wonder if they have Wilber play some end this week?

Going to have to.

 

[erod]

Going to have to.

Wilber, J Crawford, T Crawford (he's played DE), and Russell if he can play. That's the only way.

But I'm sure Marinelli is on it. I just don't like the though of Ryan getting comfortable in the pocket. He's good when he is, and awful when he's not.

 

[Denim Chicken]

This really hurts.

 

[CF74]

Shoulda appealed that bogus rap....

 

[TheDude]

Whitehead, he is useless

Why keep him active roster if he doesnt return anything?
