Wade Phillips Press Conference: 12/8/08
The summary of Wade Phillips' press conference today is below with updates on Montrae Holland, discussion of the Marion Barber ‘controversy', comments about Anthony Henry playing safety and other stuff. Follow the jump to read it all.
The game, after looking at it on tape, we saw the same things we saw after the game. We have a lot of guys banged up and I don't know the extent of the injuries. Montrae Holland seems to be the worst with a sprained ankle. Some guys went out and came back in, we have to see on the injuries. We had to had to change a lot of people in and out of the game. Tashard Choice was outstanding, he got the most yards against the Steelers this year in rushing and over 70 yards receiving, he accounted for over half the offense. He stepped up and did a good job. Every time he's in he produces, he blocked well, did a lot of things for us, a real plus.
Marion Barber, I don't think the headlines represent the story, there is no questioning his toughness. We did think he might play, but it turned out he couldn't and we hope to have him this week, he's a good possibility for this week. I don't know what Jerry's comments were, and won't speak for him. Sometimes the headline writer writes something different than the quote. (But that's not the case here, Jerry questioned him?) Anyway, I don't think we question his toughness, he's carried the load for us this year. You've got your slant and I got mine. Originally we thought he could play then found out he couldn't. (Did the team or Barber determine that?) We determined he couldn't play. I knew before we left he couldn't play, the trainers said he couldn't and it was better for him to stay home and get treatment instead of flying out there. (Did Jerry know?) I'm sure they had communication with Jerry. He will try to practice this week, he's feeling better. (Was the calf more of the issue?) The calf was a big issue. Yes, this was an injury situation. The calf became more of an issue than the toe, it popped up after he ran on it. He was favoring the toe, not putting weight on it and it gave him a problem running with his calf. He can play without practicing, it might be this week.
(It looked like there were receivers open that didn't get the ball on a lot of plays?) There's always plays where guys are open, or sometimes looks their open after the ball is thrown because the DB changes his run, but I'm not saying they weren't open. Witten did slip on the play with an INT. (Even so, the pass looked too high?) I couldn't determine if it was too high, but Witten might get a piece of it if he doesn't slip.
I think the weather was a factor for Romo, it looked like he threw too high, he was not as accurate as usual, he'll tell you it was not his best game. (More questions about the receivers and specific plays.) It comes back to the coach, the loss is mine, things I got to get straightened out. There is no use discussing every play and individual players. It was a team loss and we go forward. The only good thing was it was an AFC team. We got three games and an opportunity to be where we want to be.
Anthony Henry played in the sub-packages at safety, we wanted to get all our players on the field, and that was an opportunity to do that. (Will you move him there on a more permanent basis, starter?) We play a lot of sub-packages, it's dictated by the other team and how many WR's, etc. In our base stuff Keith Davis did a good job, he helps in run defense, he's getting better and better, he along with the front guys have played well on the run. That's what you want on first down and second downs.
Keith Davis got banged up, twisted knee, but he went back in to play the second half. We'll check it out today, see if he's OK. Tra Battle went in and played some for Keith, he's only been here two weeks. You have to change things around to put Henry as a safety on first and second down. He's a FS, we already have a FS, Hamlin can play both, but it would be a change for two players to do that. We wouldn't do that in terms of changing the FS unless the need comes.
I think finishing is a key thing. Finish the season to get where you want to be it's right there for you, you preach that, here's the opportunity. It was a tightly fought game but we turned the ball over too much.
We replay challenged twice in the game, we got one and the other was close but they didn't think so. I would have challenged the fourth and inches if I had another challenge, I thought he lost yards. Maybe they wouldn't overturn the spot but he didn't get any yards. I never did see that one on the punt during the game where we touched it and turned it over, I couldn't tell from the tape whether it hit a Steeler first, maybe on the TV replay you could see it.
Roy Williams is another guy injured, he started out feeling good, he's got the plantar fascia or sprained foot and it got worse during the game and it was noticeable in the second half. He felt good the first half but the second half it bothered him. He's not having problems with routes, knowing what to do or any of those things.
Miles Austin probably won't go this week but Mike Jenkins is a lot closer to being ready this week.
Now we see what Choice can do against a really good defense, we are comfortable using him more (even when Barber returns). He made good plays. Good blocking, he picked up the right guy and even knocked Harrison down one time.
Adam Jones played pretty well, the pass defense he played real well. He broke up a couple of passes and didn't let his guys open. We ran some zone and some man with him, but he fumbled a punt and kickoff that threw off the timing, but he just needs to play more. I think we'll stick with him on returns, he makes people miss and that's what you want.
(Has anything you've done since more involvement with the defense helped the front six play better?) We've had the same rotation throughout with the front six on defense, they've played well recently, they are a strong group. Jay Ratliff is a monster, he makes plays everywhere. They've done better recently yes. Ware came out of game OK, he said he was fine. He played well, but I didn't see the extreme burst he has, he got a sack and pressures, but he looked a little limited. But he'll get better, it might have been the brace but he played really well. He says it didn't bother him.
On special teams, we did some good things again, but we had a punt that was supposed to go left and we punted it down the middle and it bounced right and the gunner slows down, and it bounced to their guy. They had a 20-yard punt that hits our guy, then we had one we kicked bad but it hopped right up to the guy. They made two more yards on the drive after the return and kicked a FG. I think the special teams have played better and better. We played pretty well the last several games, but there can be something every week.

Please tell Mcquistan or Berger gets the start at left guard next week
if Holland cant go. Anybody is better than Proctor….
by Deke on Dec 8, 2008 2:15 PM CST reply actions 0 recs
my money would be on berger
but yeah, I can’t imagine someone being more soft than Procter. It’s not that Procter has mental problems; it’s just that he doesn’t have the physical capability.
by quincyyyyy on Dec 8, 2008 2:18 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
I meant Proctor
had his best game as a Cowboy. He got pushed back for a key sack in the 4th quarter that killed the next to last drive but before then he was run blocking very well. I hope Holland can be brought back at some point because Proctor has breakdowns even in his best days — like yesterday. That sack came on 2nd and 9 after Dallas started at their 40 because of the kickoff out of bounds.
Dallas was pushed into 3rd and 16 and made, drumroll please, 9 yards on the 3rd down pass to Witten.
Little things like that get you killed in a close game.

Procter also
makes it so Romo doesn’t feel as safe in the pocket. You could see after Procter got bull rushed a couple of times that Romo got a little more skittish in the pocket and was really trying to escape the pocket too early to compensate. Procter just inspires a lack of confidence and for that reason alone should not see the field.

I don't know why
Berger was nothing special in camp. He had a good day one afternoon, Wade said so and the next thing you know he’s “pushing Kyle Kosier for a starting spot.”
Right. Kosier goes down and Proctor and McQuistan get 1st and 2nd cracks at the spot.

coverage has been better
since Polk joined the unit.
If Paulescu punted away from the coverage he’s setting his guys up. If they’re running left and the ball outflanks they the offense is handed a ready-made wall.
That’s exactly what happened on Holmes’ return. The wall was there once he beat Ball.

I give Palescu some props
for coming up on coverage, but he needs to realize that he is the safety and not a wedge buster on punts.
George Teague did it all.
by Aaron Novinger on Dec 8, 2008 3:16 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
He's playing for a job next year.
He knows that McBriar will be the punter here, so he’s doing what he can to get noticed by other teams. I think the wind affected the punts big time, so I don’t know that it was his fault that the ball went awry a couple of times.
by Baked Potato Soup on Dec 8, 2008 3:30 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
I still struggle to think that Paulescu is the best punter out there.
I know the wind was bad yesterday, but I sat there and watched him hit shank after shank in warm ups. It’s funny that you don’t realize what a weapon having an awesome punter is until you lose him.

we have a great chance of beating the giants
our fate is in our own hands so i will be extremely pissed if we blow it now

No new info yet, but I think it had to be something somewhat serious to keep him
out for the rest of the game, if it was minor he would have come back in. Jacobs injury is something to keep an eye on. From the WP PC it looks like there might not be a M Austin return for this game but hopefully barber and jenkings can come back for this game.

This is what I read
Jacobs (knee) told Newsday that he would be able to play in Week 15. He said that his knee was more painful than damaged.
Spin: We’re a little skeptical of Jacobs’ proclamation of health as he said earlier this season he’d be good to go before sitting out with a knee injury. We’ll closely monitor his workload at practice this week to getter a better idea of his status.

Special Teams might be getting better...
but when you play like poop I guess playing bad is getting better. However, It’s hard to blame them for the one turnover, that was just bad luck and our replacement punter is below average at best, hard to believe there isn’t anyone else out there they could bring to punt.
Besides Special Teams Tony Romo really struggled. It’s funny how when he has a bad day he goes all out and has an awful day.
by staubachfan on Dec 8, 2008 2:59 PM CST reply actions 0 recs
That punt turnover was a total fluke and
it turned the game.
That punt landed at the Pittsburgh 30. After the second three-and-out the next punt landed at the 8.
That’s 60 yards of field position. The Cowboys were going to start in Nick Folk’s range with the wind at their backs and a 0-0 game.
That play and Newman’s giveup of the bomb were the two biggest plays of the game.
by Rafael Vela on Dec 8, 2008 3:16 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
the irony is that
the punt worked out for them because it was Pop Warner class. If it is just a bad punt it sails ten yards farther or goes out of bounds.

Wind was blowing no real shots last game, but he should have fair caught a couple of those. During the Seattle and SF the punter out kicked the coverage, but Crayton was to slow to take advantage. I want to see what will happen in the dome vs NYG before we take him off..

LG Montrae Holland: Sprained right ankle. The worst of the injuries suffered during Sunday’s game, according to Wade Phillips.
FS Ken Hamlin: Sprained ankle. Wearing a walking boot on his right foot.
SS Keith Davis: Sprained left knee. Undergoing MRI today.
CB Adam “Pacman” Jones: Pain in the neck. (Insert punchline here.)
WR Roy Williams: Sore plantar fascia, didn’t limit playing time.
TE Jason Witten: Sprained right ankle. Got X-rays on chest during game.
CB Mike Jenkins: Could return this week after missing two games due to pulled hamstring.
WR Miles Austin: Probably needs another week to rehab knee before he’ll be ready.

Hope not
Let’s not jump to the dreaded high ankle sprain— those are 3+ weeks, usually. Since Wade didn’t focus on the injury in his press conference, I’ve got to think that it’s a mild ankle sprain.
Otherwise, you’re looking at Henry at FS and Davis/Battle at SS next week. Not comforting.

I could see Henry prolonging his career and potentially thriving @ that position. His range as a FS in providing help coverage could turn him into a better free saftety than corner — once he gets used to it.

Hallelujah...
I’ve been asking for this ever since The Thong went down. Hamlin to SS and Henry to SS gives us by far our best defensive backfield in terms of pass defense, but I wonder if we’ll ever see it. Guess that depends on how serious Hamlin’s ankle is. But Henry has the skills to be an excellent FS.

Newman, Pac, Scandrick and MJ
…make up four athletic corners who can play both press and zone.
This is a MUCH better alignment for the defensive backfield. Next year, I see Hamlin moving to SS and Henry taking over the FS spot permanently.
the thing to watch will be Henry’s tackling and whether he can bait Eli, Flacco and McNabb into some INT’s.

wow
anthony henry could also be a good ss imo
but fs is a great idea too
he’s a ballhawk and he’s a bit slow which alot of free safeties are lacking the super speed most corners have
i wonder how we’ll hold up though and i hope he does well
with jenkins coming back i think our secondary will become a great unit along with the amazing way our defense has been playing
also scandrick is a beast i love the kid…he goes out and gives 110%..same with tashard too

Then the Bucs play the Falcons next week, and as long as we beat the Giants we’ll be in good shape. If Falcons beat the Bucs next week (and Dallas wins) Dallas will move into the 5th seed. If Bucs beat the Falcons next week (and Dallas wins) we’ll still have the 6th seed.

When the steeler special team player ripped Pac Man from under that dog pile by his legs shouldn’t that have been unnecessary roughness?
