What a load of BS. He obviously doesn’t watch D-Ware since he would know that he is as good against the run as he is the pass. So many times it is him running down a RB from the weak side or tossing aside a TE for the tackle. I will never forget three years ago NY when on 4th and one he took Brandon Jacobs and threw him to the ground. That was not a fluke. I assure you of that.

The fact of the matter is that he is a three-time pro bowler with the potential for many more barring injury. In fact, he has a real shot at the single season sack record and maybe even the all-time sack record. I will be extremely shocked i he is not a HOFamer in about 15 years (he already has 53.5 sacks!!!).

and cant agree that a TE can be our most valuable player next year. I would rank Romo, Ware, Ratliff and Davis ahead of him.

Also how can Austin be considered above RW?

That article was nothing but a thinly disguised way for a Redskins fan to take shots at the Cowboys.

For example, he says that Felix Jones “entered the midseason point as one of Tony Romo’s most valuable receivers.” Really? With his 2 catches for 10 yards?

Here are some other key points that were made in the article:

DeMarcus Ware is over rated,
Roy Williams is over rated,
Tony Romo will never improve,
Bradie James is at best the #3 MLB in the division,
and the Cowboys are the worst team in the division.

Give me a break. Even the players that he compliments are then downgraded with the next sentence, such as saying that Newman is one of the top 10 CBs in the league, but that he’s not one of the best cover corners in the conference and that Dallas only extended his contract out of need because they are weak at the position, not because of his skills.

Let’s not ignore how good of a player Romo is. He’s 29, so this is as good as he’ll ever be, but if he plays until age 37 at this level, we’re talking about a hall of fame type player. Not a player who “can’t.”

So this tool says Romo wont improve but hes HOFer?. I would think Romo would need to improve and win some playoff games but I guess hes giving Romo props here

That’s besides his flat-out lying about Ware’s ability against the run. Also, Ware’s only 26 and has already been to three pro bowls. Unless Ware’s spine gets pierced by one of Schwapp’s throwing stars, there’s no way in hell he only makes a mere 5-6 Pro Bowls (or only 3 more). This ’Skin skank is out of his mind. After all, LaVar Arrington somehow made 3 Pro Bowls and he only had 23.5 sacks HIS WHOLE CAREER.

wow …. it’s stuff like this that just makes me laugh. Lost complete respect for the writer. If you wanna bash the Boys, go right ahead, but at least know what the hell you’re talking about before you hit the “post” button. Good lord.

Every non-Cowboy NFC East fan hates on the Cowboys and are unable of being objective because we handed their asses to them for years. I can live with this if it stopped with the thuggy fans, but unfortunately, media realizes that they can make their viewers/readers happy to espousing the same uneducated viewpoint. They don’t even bother to mask their lack of objectivity (case in point: any ESPN coverage on the Cowboys).

With the proximity between Philadelphia and NYC, I’d expect the rivalry between them would naturally become bigger than that with the Cowboys, but somehow it doesn’t materialize that way. I tend to think the North eastern mentality breads disdain towards Texas.

Bottom line, we should Ignore Greg Trippiedi and not go to his site unless you want to help him.

but the best part of d.ware’s game is not run defense. he gives up his outside too easily, doesn’t shed blockers well consistently and often depends on his quickness too much. he is a stud and an absolute beast. but there are still areas of his game that are improving.

i do think the writer shows serious anti-boys bias though. i might rate d.ware that low just because he is a known quantity, and i can appreciate rat being ahead of him.

He’s like the first writer to say D-Ware was weak against the run. Apparently, that beeyotch hasn’t watched DeMarcus play.

Ware is a COMPLETE defensive player.

I’d put the writings of Grizz, Raf, Raul, Glory, JV, and Big over that asinine douche bag any day.

Man, the lengths these idiots will go to try to make a name for themselves.

“Hmmm — how do I get recognized as a sportswriter? How about state something derogatory, yet untrue about the Dallas Cowboys? Yeah, let’s try that.”

Prick.

If Demarcus Ware ends up getting into the top 5 pass rusher category of all time, that’ll be enough right there to get him into the hall of fame.

How can a guy get 20 sacks and be deemed more valuable than he really is?

Pass rushers are the biggest commodity in the NFL. IMO it IS the most important thing to have on a defense in a pass happy league.

that article is a joke, ask any GM if they would like to have Ware and I bet all 31 say yes. Also Rat was not a UDFA but a 7th round pick, this type of articles make me sick, they don’t even have the facts and start writing.

Jason Witten is an elite blocker and Ware is outstanding against the run.

You missed your calling as a lawyer, as you know how to make a case.

Here is yet another variation on the list:

A top-10 of “Who needs to step up this year”

10> Newman – All we need is our regular ol’ healthy Newman back and this secondary looks GREAT.
9> Scandrick and Jenkins – these guys are the definition of “rising stars” … so almost expected
8> Buehler, Folk and McBriar – The starting point for ST improvements… Buehler hits will fire up the D.
7> ANY Rookie surprises – The starters are set; a Rookie surprise will be a HUGE bonus
6> Brookings and Sensabaugh – our FA signings need to solidify the middle of this D
5> Hamlin – a return to ‘07 form with the departure of Roy will be GREAT for this D
4> Roy Williams – show that ol’ Longhorn style of catching everything in site!
3> The other WRs – Hurd, Stanback, Crayton, Austin – a Big year from them spells success
2> Romo – a 94+ passer rating isn’t good enough in Big D – my bet is Romo thrives on this pressure
1> Left Side of the O-Line… Flo and Kosier are the key to another offensive year like ’07

NOTE: Witten, Ware and Rat don’t make the list because of their consistently high level of play. Same goes for Columbo and Bigg… and the Running Back Trio as well… they don’t need to step up, just keep doing what they do!

but there were some games I felt that he wasn’t a disruptive player. He’d have a sack to pad his stats, and that’s it.
I was upset, too, when Ware didn’t win the defensive MVP award, but after I saw Harrison score that touchdown in the Super Bowl, I asked myself if Ware has done anything like that, and I thought, Harrison probably deserved that award.
And Newman was terrible last year. He got toasted by Santonio Holmes and Desean Jackson at the end of the season, when he was supposedly healthy. And I won’t forgot his first game against the Redskins last year.
