The Dark Secret to Why We Lost to the Redskins...

Dallas Cowboys defensive coordinator Brian Stewart during the first half of the game...

"OK ... here's the analysis. WAS has three light, speedy receivers who run quick underneath routes. None of them are very physical and can easily be pushed off their routes with the right personnel.

"Luckily, we have the right personnel. We have three physical CBs who are fairly good at man coverage and have great recovery speed. We also have a great pass rush, so if we can force receivers off their routes at the line, we can get a decent amount of coverage sacks, and maybe a pick here or there when they try to run underneath routes on us.

[The thrilling conclusion after the jump]

Interesting PacMan misprint

...at least I assume it's a misprint.

From Fanball.com's daily e-mailer (NFL Newsbreaks).

Cowboys not interested in Henry
The News
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said that acquiring troubled receiver Chris Henry is not in his plans, according to the Star Telegram. He was a college team-mate of newly acquired cornerback Pacman Jones (at West Virginia) but it remains unlikely they will be re-united in Dallas. Henry was cut by the Bengals last week after an alleged assault, and he could face a season long suspension by the NFL.
Our View
Henry holds no fantasy value until a team shows interest in him.

DJax waived by San Fran

49ers part ways with Jackson

San Francisco, CA (Sports Network) - The San Francisco 49ers waived veteran wide receiver Darrell Jackson on Saturday.

"I always had a great deal of respect for Darrell as a player in the NFL," said San Francisco head coach Mike Nolan. "I appreciated his dedication and work ethic during his season with the 49ers. He always had a positive attitude every day he came to work. While we are going in a different direction, I know he can still produce and be an asset to an NFL team this year."

Jackson was acquired in a draft day trade with Seattle last April and started 15 games in 2007, catching 46 passes for 497 yards with three touchdowns. The veteran has recorded 487 catches for 6,942 yards with 50 touchdowns and three 1,000-yard seasons over eight NFL campaigns.

SI lists the Top 25 Hardest Hitters of all time

... And Roy Williams doesn't make the cut.
http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/mul...

Ridiculous. One look at my favorite Roy Williams video should make him a lock for this list.

(There's some NSFW language on the video, so you may want to have speakers off at work)

But back to the list, I'm glad to see a lot of guys I thought of make the cut ... Ronnie Lott, Jack Lambert, Lawrence Taylor, John Lynch, Cliff Harris (of course), Mean Joe, Dick Butkus, etc.
