Ferguson's injury creates big void in Big D

Dallas Cowboys got off to a good start with their 45-35 victory over the New York Giants. The 45 speaks for itself, but the 35 will need to be addressed quickly.

Based on what I saw and who was playing, the Cowboys need to get CB Terence Newman back on the field as soon as possible. They also need one of their backup cornerbacks to emerge as a quality No. 3 option. The sooner players such as CBs Jacques Reeves and Nate Jones are able to function effectively behind the starters, the better the Cowboys' defense will be.

Also, the season-ending injury to DT Jason Ferguson is going to be an issue. He is the most experienced inside defensive lineman on the team. His absence will definitely hurt Dallas.


Looking ahead to Week 2, these three games stand out to me.

I wonder if Parcells really wrote this (vs. being ghostwritten by some ESPN intern). It isn't insightful at all.

The funny thing, if you click on the link, is that he commented on three games that stood out to him, and ours wasn't one of them. Guess he just wanted to talk about us.

But the rest of the commentary does look like his style.

I look forward to Friday nights at 6:00 now so I can hear his show with Mort. I only wish it were two hours instead of one.

I doubt he wrote it as much as dictated.

So I guess the sky is falling?

The Cowboys have alot of youth. They really just played the young guys and won a strong game.

Let's see what they do on the road...

Seems to be that he went out of his way to be vague so that no one would have any fodder, smart on his part.

Ratliff played very well Sunday night.

You would think with his intimate knowledge of the team that he could give us something a little more than what everyone and their dog knows.
