Cowboys @ Cardinals: Final Injury Report

by Dave Halprin on Dec 2, 2011 4:55 PM CST in Dallas Cowboys News

The injury news is what we expected. Miles Austin and Tony Fiammetta will not play this week in Arizona. Also out for the game are Jon Kitna, Phillip Tanner and Josh Price-Brent. As ESPN Dallas notes, with Price-Brent out, Sean Lissemore will have to back up Jay Ratliff. Last time that happened was the Eagles game, where their running game killed us. Lissemore has been great at defensive end, now he'll need to hold down the middle with the Rat.

Mike Jenkins. Kyle Kosier and Gerald Sensabauh are listed as questionable but all are expected to play. Bruce Carter, Sean Lee and Mat McBriar are probable and will play.

Full injury reports:

DALLAS COWBOYS

Out WR Miles Austin (hamstring), RB Tony Fiammetta (illness), QB Jon Kitna (back), DT Josh Price-Brent (knee), RB Phillip Tanner (hamstring)

Questionable CB Mike Jenkins (hamstring), G Kyle Kosier (foot), S Gerald Sensabaugh (foot)

Probable LB Bruce Carter (knee), LB Sean Lee (wrist), P Mat McBriar (left foot)

ARIZONA CARDINALS

Doubtful LB Joey Porter (knee), S Kerry Rhodes (foot)

Questionable TE Todd Heap (hamstring), LB Reggie Walker (hamstring)

Probable CB Michael Adams (hamstring), TE Rob Housler (groin), QB Kevin Kolb (toe), KR LaRod Stephens-Howling (shoulder), RB Chris Wells (knee)

uhmm no Miles.... but we need him healthy to play against the G-men

D-Ware= sack master

Let Miles rest. If a win in Arizon , let's start getting him ready

for the playoffs. He has a secure spot on the team, unlike Choice. I want to see that 3 headed receiving monster out there, but no rush. Robinson is proving more than capable.

Really want to see how Chapas does in Fiametta's place

Another chance to see how well the college scouting department did its job.

He won’t be as instinctive, but maybe he can lay out a LB or two.

"Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?"

Also a chance to see how well Mike Wocik did his job

It ll be interesting if he shows any progress from preseason in his power in driving off

This is of course speculation, but could improved conditioning from the Wocik program have been a factor in Dallas s ability to finish games these days?

Mike Woicik

…imagine what he’ll accomplish with a real off-season!

Shaun Chapas

Did a little reading up on him and he was touted as the best blocking back in the SEC before his injury and ankle surgery last year. And he is a good target out of the back field as a receiving threat. He has good hands and speed. If his ankle is truly healed up and in 100% condition he should be a really good asset for the Boys on Sunday.

by Aaron Burtram on Dec 3, 2011 4:18 PM CST up reply actions

yeah I know

I thought he was going to be good after reading up on him too

Let’s hope his ankle is fully healed and he lives up to all that potential.

by Aaron Burtram on Dec 3, 2011 9:27 PM CST up reply actions

I am worried about the running game for the first time

I hope the Oline is healthy and Chapas works out. I see the production going down and hope JG gets it into the head of Romo, that this is the month to stick with the run, because it will pay dividends into January.

My other concern is for the special teams.

Lastly, I hope we don’t come off of this long rest period like we did against the Eagles off of the bye.

by sanhoo on Dec 2, 2011 6:13 PM CST reply actions

good test vs Cardinals though

Phillips is getting better but how will Chapas do? Maybe he was a little overwhelmed and wasn’t blocking the right guy in practice? I like the idea of Chapas being out there with Murray though.

I’d like to see how often Chapas is out there vs Phillips.

by scraig on Dec 2, 2011 8:53 PM CST up reply actions

this doesn't make any sense

Lastly, I hope we don’t come off of this long rest period like we did against the Eagles off of the bye.

I think it's confusion about who was coming off a bye that week

Of course it was Philly not Dallas….

Don't believe everything you think.

by dunkman on Dec 3, 2011 9:15 AM CST up reply actions

Unless he means the game after our bye.

The game where we took the Patriots down to the final drive.

Oh wait, we played pretty good up until that drive. Holding the almighty Tom Brady to a 82.3 QB rating with 2 INT’s is pretty good for coming off one of those dastardly long layoff things.

Yeah I have good hair so I don't need hats.

People get me hats for gifts, I always thank them because I don’t want to feel like a tool but they always end up sitting on my shelves. I also kinda stopped wearing team gear, always feels like I jynx the team when I wear their gear. I always buy a ton of it, I just rarely wear it. I mainly just wear some pretty loud stuff. Occasionally sweats and a band t-shirt, but usually I dress pretty garishly.

by TARHEEL PAUL on Dec 2, 2011 9:25 PM CST up reply actions

my opinion?

I have a theory that Romeo is working with someone from the clubs past or is working with Hale or the police, its just weird because he said Otto didnt snitch and he did, so something is up there

I think Jax may not kill Clay, he may do something nuts that screws Clay over somehow

I think Jax might stay in Charming now

something could happen to Tara, like the dude from the Niners rolls up and gets Tara killed maybe

idk a lot going on, gonna be crazy

I feel real bad for Bobby

Bobby wanted to straighten that club out and he is the one who gets snitched on, thats wack

Piney man was original 6 and gets done dirty like that? I hated that

I need to see some sort of vengeance for Bobby and Piney next week and I want to see this federal RICO thing disappear somehow

I can't believe Clay didn't die.

They’ve got some twist coming up with that. And I can’t believe Tara told Jax to kill Clay. That’s gonna keep them in Charming.

If Clay dies AND Jax moves up north, the show is over.

right now

I feel bad for Chibs, dude feels all upset and sad over something he didnt know the truth too and now he just started some unnecessary beef with Oakland

Chibs is a good guy, very loyal friend to a dirtbag of a man in Clay

I feel bad for the Irish guy, he is caught up in some crap with Juice, Juice is a straight snitch and should have been dead weeks ago

that DA is such a tool, cant stand him at all

I actually like the sheriff and his wife, feel bad how he got screwed over too, he might help the club actually

I feel real bad for Opie, Opie is a straight rider for that club and he constantly gets screwed over

I love Jax, I wish he could just get in a car with his girl and kids and drive away, but that aint happening, Jax IS THE SHOW

someone from the past his going to show up in this last episode, could be Zobell or somebody

Every year that a team is undefeated this is just about the time they lose one, then get back on track and run the rest of the games. The assumptions that the boys have locked up the division is a little too premature for my liking, even though i think we have a better team. Like i said, not probable, but wouldn’t be surprised in this wacky NFL. If i was a betting man i wouldn’t touch that game.
