Ware was given a 91 rating in the 2006 roster update for ESPN NFL 2k5 for the Xbox. That's considered Pro Bowl material. Spears was listed with an 88 rating.

Well if they dominate in video games, the same must hold true for real life.



I wish NFL was like Madden, we'd win the super bowl every year. Henson would be a pro bowler each year, and Pete Hunter would be a all-pro

No doubt bro. A couple of years back I had Hambrick gain 2000 yeards on Madden.

I think it is funny that anyone would even talk about XBox in the same breath as the real game of football. One is for couch potatoes and the other is a extremely physical game. What takes place on an XBox game has absolutely nothing to do with the real game of football. Any moron can play the video game and make the worst team the Super Bowl winner

But after going 5-11, 5-11, 5-11, and then another 6-10 season ... all we have to enjoy is playing video game football.

Considering we had JJ run this team to the ground, at least we can enjoy beating up on our opponents on the Xbox ... since we haven't been doing it for real.

Nothing wrong with that but to make comparison of the 2 is too funny. I have played both the video game and the real game and they are not even close to one another. As for Jones yes he struggled for a few years but at least in my eye's I think this team is moving in the right direction and have fairly high expectation for the ball club this season as in making a legit run for the playoffs.

I liked when Eisen gave Ware some water at the end of the interview. Ware came across as a truly humble and likable young man.

Also liked the quick shot of the Cowboys rookies together doing sprints to maintain a semblance of their practice regimen during the Symposium breaks. Pettiti looked a lot lighter.

From the film clips you wonder that the Cowboys should just use their practice jerseys as away jerseys. They look great!

I agree. I have high expectations this year also. It's been awhile. I've tempered my enthusiasm for years and years. Always wound up "not as" frustrated with the result.

But I think the team is headed in the right direction. Everyone spoke about 2005 as THE year. I don't think so. I don't think we have Offensive firepower to be in the final mix.

Then again, injuries will play a huge role in our success or lack thereof.

But until then, I'll continue winning Super Bowls on NFL 2k5 with the updated rosters ...

I think you take one step at a time and again my expectation is to get to post season if the team can do that then I think they can look at this season as a success

Total Access is broadcasting from the NFL Rookie Symposium at Palm Beach Garden, Florida. They showed some video of the folks speaking to the rooks, including former Vikes receiver Chris Carter.

Demarcus Ware was interviewed by Rich Eisen on a patio.

Showed some clips of Boys running sprints today.)

Ware talked about growing up in Alabama, wanting very much to go to Auburn, but appreciated getting a free education via a scholarship.
Happy all his hard wok paid off.

Eisnen mentioned Bill considered him a mix of LT and McGinest.

Ware said it as unbelievable to be compared to those playres by a guy like Parcells.

Asked about the water, he was told after an initial weigh in he had to get water every break for Bill.

Said I am, fine with it, I will do it. Bil told him personally it was his job but also said Bill want ice and "no orange gator aid" he found that out.

A key part to 3-4... He will be one - need to get pressure on QB..mentioned Glover, Ferg, Ellis all will be "creating havoc , we will go BOTH 3-4 and 4-3 it "will be hard to tell who is rushing and who is coming frorm where."

After OTAs went back to finish up his degree and graduate. Business Administrations Systems. Mentioned some players who advised him to get his degree. His parents very pleased about it, more pleased than with anything else.

Very good recap Tuna! I saw it this morning. I like his demeanor and the way he carries himself.... Seems like a good kid. Did anyone else get goose bumps when he talked about the 3-4 and 4-3 alignments? I know I did. He kept emphasising CREATING PRESSURE!... also the line about not knowing who is rushing and where from... this is gonna be a fun season!

Oh yeah!

Thank God, the players, even the rookies GET IT - it's about creating pressure and "wreaking havoc" as the kid said last night (and he was excited about it) - not about how much is 4-3 and how much 3-4.

Those darn players, they just don't understand our agendas, tho.

That was awesome!

In case anyone missed the video, it's up at NFL.com now...

We sure have drafted some likeable players the last few years... What a nice guy Ware seems to be.

NOT to start something (like a flame war or a TheKey style freak-out) , but did anyone think Ware looked kinda, well, "baby fat". A little Pillsbury doughboyish?

I know he has had to add weight, as opposed to take it off, these last few years.

Not saying he looked like Willie Blade. Or Fergy. Or Tucker, or Spears.

Just pudgy as opposed to muscular.

I actually didn't notice that, Herms... He just looked like a standard NFL linebacker to me. If anything, it looks to me like he's got a little more room to fill out.

Maybe I was expecting a real tubb-o after the Leftwich reference.

Probably just me.

Whatever it was I perceived soft in Demarcus' appearance, is probably just due to age.

Mine.

 

[ravidubey]

LTN, I just noticed he was very young and applie-pie looking. His face seemed trim enough and his shirt would have hidden anything more. The film of him at practice was more revealing, and there he looked lean; very Haley-esque.

It's sounding more and more like Ware is the real deal. I can't wait to watch him in some real games!

I didn't see baby fat.. but he could use a little more "cut" or definition to him.. I think Bill will have him ready.
