Terence Newman questionable with groin injury
It's hard to believe, but we've got another injury problem. Terence Newman returned from surgery last week to play one of his better career games by shutting gown Santana Moss. Now, it's Newman who may be shutdown for this weekend's game. He strained a groin muscle but not the one he just had surgery on.
Terence Newman did not practice Friday because of a groin injury suffered in Thursday's practice, but owner and general manager Jerry Jones said it did not involve the surgery Newman had last month that knocked him out for six games.
Right now he is listed as questionable for the game, he didn't practice today and it appears he'll be a game-time decision.
What else can go wrong? Wait, I didn't really ask that because I don't really want an answer.
Hat tip letsgogetonefellas for the FanPost.

The NFL made it official, the Commish has given Pacman the go-ahead to start practicing Monday and he can play against Pittsburgh.
The NFL confirmed Friday that suspended cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones can join the Dallas Cowboys on Monday and that he can play again Dec. 7 against Pittsburgh - but only if he stays on his best behavior.
He must comply with his out-patient treatment for his alcohol rehabilitation as well as just plain staying out of trouble.

This is exactly why we needed Pacman back
Newman is basically unreliable this season so having as many healthy CB’s, especially one with Pacman’s talents are needed. If I were Wade I would sit Newman down until the Pitt game.

+1.....where's the Pacman moans now ?...
Who exactly are our staarting CB’s this week anyhow ??? Newman out ? , Henry hampered ? Pacman unavailable ?? Will we actually see Allan Ball and Mike Jenkins starting Sunday ??? with Scandrick in the slot ??
geeeez….who would’ve thought that going into this season ??

I'm so glad we replaced Reeves, Nate Jones and Evan Oglesby with Pacman, Jenkins and Scandrick
could you imagine how down the Sh*tter we’d be by now?

I think Evan Oglesby was replaced by Alan Ball
At least they were reportedly battling for the last roster spot. In my opinion, I would rather have Oglesby on the field this game than Alan Ball; at least Oglesby was always getting his hands on the ball in TC.

Ball was on the roster last year, the reason why we couldnt keep both of them like last year, was because we added pac and the 2 rooks...
ball was on the practice squad and then the roster mid season so he wouldnt get claimed… So we basically traded in Pac, Jenkins, and Scandrick > Reeves, Nate, and Olgelsby
Olgelsby wouldv’e been a RFA next year so we woulda had to tender him plus he’s 3-4 years older than Ball and Ball apparently has a lot more potential….That’s why we kept Ball, plus nobody expected Henry to be limping with Newman always hurt and Pac suspended…..

Pacman Moans
That movie was way better than the ads indicated. Timberlake gave a suprisingly solid performance and Christina Ricci? Well, you gotta see her chained up in Daisy Dukes to appreciate the true cinematic artistry.

Nice!
Never thought I’d see a Black Snake Moan reference. I thought I was the only one that ever saw that movie (I don’t know that I’m proud to say that I wasted 2 hours watching it though.)

Play to win
Dallas needs to stick with an agressive coverage package even if it gives up a few big plays. Letting RB’s like Gore bleed them to death slowly was not working.
The defense carried the team in Washington. Romo and TO can carry the team for two games. The Cowboys will need all hands on deck for Pittsburg and the Giants.

I find it hard to
believe his groin is not the one he had surgery on….but if Jerry says soooo……I really don’t care if Pacman comes back or not to be perfectly honest with you. If it cost us a chance to make the playoffs then so be it……..I’m tired of talking about off the field issues or listening to off the field issues whenever the MSM talks about the cowboys. Lets go out there with the guys who bust there butts every week, when can win with what we got.

Your in for a long wait
if you think the msm will stop using the boys as their verbal punching bag. WP is not good enough, redball is overrated, romo is not a leader, the owner is a meddler, etc. Follow my motto and you will feel better.

are you guys serious?
Jerry Jones signs some of the biggest named bad boys in football EVER, and you’re surprised that those chickens come home to roost, and when they do you blame the vast east coast liberal sports media conspiracy? REALLY???? REALLY?
Sweet J, fellas. The issues you have, have nothing to do with Pacman Jones’ substance abuse problems and anger issues, Tank’s brushes with the law regarding firearms and murders, and TO’s jawdropping ability to grab the spotlight in the most unseemly way possible. Let’s throw J Simpson in, and the same MSM’s annointment of this VERY SAME F’ing TEAM AS SUPER BOWL FAVORITES, as well as Red Ball’s insane contract, and Jerrah’s proclivity to grab the spotlight.
Given all that, you don’t blame the theater under the spotlights, but, you blame the spotlights. Whatever.
By the way, geniuses, those topics you raise, and condem media outlets and Joe and Jill America that discuss them… ahem… ARE THE VERY SAME TOPICS DISCUSSED DAILY ON THIS AND OTHER COWBOYS BLOGS.
Are you so thin skinned that any – ANY- non ass kissing comment in the media is a conspiracy against the Cowboys?
That’s what some people call fair and balanced.
Also, nothing you’re discussing has anyting to do with the game. So, you’re identically, and equally, as culpable as the people you loathe.

No I used those as examples, of why jvw should not wait for them to stop
criticizing the team. I follow the motto on my signature and do not overreact to unfavorable coverage. Most of the time I just have to laugh at all the drama, its just a game, a game that I love to follow and I follow the boys exclusively. I like sharing thoughts but I do not for one minute believe that my opinion has any bearing on what the team does or how they perform. I can understand your point, but do not lump me in as a person who worries about favorable coverage or hopes the msm will leave dallas alone.

don't know what law your reading...
but tank has never killed anymore….nor been charged with killing anyone or even shooting anymore…he’s best friend was killed…..that means i guess, the entire kennedy family has had a brush with murder….

Surgery was on the hernia
not the groin if I understood correctly.

Ok, I guess Dallas is just snakebit..
We’ve gone from a smash unit to mash unit this year to last. Thank goodness JJ/SOB were smart and picked up two quality backups in this year’s draft. Almost like they were prophetic though if JJ truly were he most likely would have passed on Pacman.

Balance + Depth = playoffs
Relax Y’all, We got the team to do it. we got balance on both sides of the ball, so we don’t have to rely on one side or the other (defense has won a few for us when the O was suckin’). Then we got depth with guys that wanna play, such as Scandrick, Jenkins, Ball, Brown, and Watkins. These “kids” would be starting on 15 other teams!!!
As the saying goes “no team plays in a vacuum” and this too will come to pass. The other teams are dinged up right now too. You will see many of them falter now due to injuries. It happens every season this late.
My question to you guys (hypothetical) is “How many players can the other contenders afford to lose?” Then remind yourselves how many we have lost this year, and we’re still valid contenders.

The good thing...
Is that Dallas has an offense that can carry them as well. Hell if they can beat Tampa Bay with a banged up defense and no offense, they can beat San Fran and Seattle.

Questionable?
Newman is out..
Man, I wish we Pac would have been re-instated for this game.. Would I let Pac-man watch my kids? no Would I let Pac-man cover Isaac Bruce? Yes Seems pretty simple to me..

What's up AirforceBat
I think they can sqeak by both these teams too. Not having Felix and Austin will hurt us later though. Hopefully Austin can get back soon. He was looking good. Both of these guys are our speed guys, it hurts to lose guys like them. Tony & Roy need to get it together soon.
