Spears hurt already

Parcells said he will still get atleast 3 preseason games in, so dousnt sound that bad.
 
Lots of questions regarding TO- Parcells isn't too worried what might happen with TO and to Bledsoe blowing up. All his worried about is getting TO into assimilated and finding out what he can do. Parcells said he doesn't care what TO did in the past. Maybe it was the other guys that was at fault he says. All he wants to do is get TO into the flow of things and allow him to be the player that we signed him to be. Threat him with respect and make him feel part of the team is all that I'm worried about Parcells said.

I thought Parcells handled all the TO questions pretty well.
 
Spears is a bust. He really has not impressed me yet. I was excited for the Demarcus Ware pick, but for Spears, I was more excited when the Cowboys got Canty in the fourth.

Couldn't agree more. He is really trying my patience. Two years in a row with this horsesh**. He's as brittle as Julius.

Knee sprains occur all the time. He's not "brittle". If anything, he is a victim of some bad luck.

Spears hasn't missed a game, and he was starting by mid-season... But he's a bust...:rolleyes:

And did he miss any games due to injury in the reg. season last year? When it counts?

My lord, I need to loosen my collar. I can't believe what I'm hearing.

Are you serious? Spears missed ZERO games last year, and will not miss any from this injury either. If anything this gives us a better look at Ratliff and Hatcher in TC and preseason.
 
There's nothing "brittle" about falling backwards on his leg like what happened in the last camp. It was gruesome looking, and its amazing he only missed a a few weeks of camp.
 
Parchy, what has Spears done to impress you? He seems injury prone. I'm sure he's a nice guy, but that doesn't do it for me. I really didn't think he was worth a #1. And yes I have watched every Cowboys game since the late 80s. Also this bad back that he has will linger on him his entire career.

People want sacks. People want six tackles a game. People have unreal expectations.

I'm not sure how much you know about 3-4 linemen, but their job is not glamorous. It isn't supposed to be. Their primary job is to eat blockers and plug rushing lanes so those behind them, i.e. the linebackers, can make the plays. If they happen upon a blown assignment and make a nice play in the backfield, great. Kudos for them. But it's a bonus of the job.

Marcus Spears earned his starting job because he's good. He's damn good. And it would be impossible to find a rookie 3-4 end who did better (ever) than Spears did last year. Ever. I mean that.

And how in the hell is he injury prone if he makes it through a 16 game season without so much as a hangnail? If somebody rolls up on you or you step on somebody, there isn't a whole lot you can do.

Most people who know draft picks thought Spears and Ware could have been swapped. The fact that we took him at #20 was an absolute steal. I'm sorry if you can't see that, but I think you're looking in the wrong places.

Fans that can tell a player is a bust in his second year amaze me.

Oh prognosticator of prognosticators!
 
Starting at DT is impressive for a mid round #1 draft pick? Sacks and tackles impresses me, not being a starter.

Now if this was Demarcus Ware or Chris Canty getting injured, I would be pissed.
