Ware has 113 heading into Sunday's game against the Rams. Martin ended his career with 114.
Ware said he doens't know much about Martin but plans to learn about the legendary Cowboys pass rusher who was the co-MVP of Super Bowl XII.

Ware said the record will mean a lot because of the long list of pass rushers in Cowboys history. But he still searching for the thing that really sets those before him apart _ a Super Bowl title.
