    Is anybody else worried about Daniels? Will he be out for months, then finally reappear for the last three games of the season?

    Yeah, me.

    I figured they were resting big Mike to insure he'd play vs Dallas. Now I think the big boy is hurting and that's bad. Those big muscle injuries can last all season.

    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Yes. I'm also worried about Bakh and Bulaga. It isn't a good sign that these 3 players are not full participants at practice yet. Our tackles might also be out for a while.

    i think MM's been sand bagging. i think some of the guys who didn't play last week could have. he thought they had enough to beat the bears without using them. he knows this game with dal is big, home field wise, and they'll all be ready...except maybe Ty but it wouldn't surprise me if he played too.

    Adams still in concussion protocol, MM says. Needs to be cleared before they get on the plane.

    M3 has made mention many times about building their season every year so they finish strong. Part of that strategy seems to be that they are much more likely to give guys who are injured early in the season more time to heal. I don't think they look at it in terms of whether or not they can beat opponent X without player Y. It is just early enough that they are willing to let guys rest more so they are available later in the season.

    I think this is spot on. But I bet they thought they could beat the Bears...

    A bit of trouble believing that. No matter how soft he thought the Bears were, does anyone believe he'd endanger an opportunity to take the lead in the all-time series? IMO that game was bigger on the schedule than others because of that.

    Fans care about the all-time series. I definitely want that win and the all-time record, and I know you do too. I doubt Stubby cares at all - coaches are focused on the win and the season goal of championship. He might give it lip service, but that's something coaches maybe talk about after they retire as a sheepskin on the wall sort of thing.

    I'm reminded of the LeRoy Butler story from when he was a rookie. He was filling up his tank at the gas station and a fan said "Hey, you gotta beat the Bears this week!" Butler said "We'll do our best" the fan said "I don't want you to do your best, I want you to win" Butler said that's when he really understood how much the games mean to fans.

    Monty doubtful. So who gets the start? Williams, Ripper or Jones?
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Adams has cleared concussion protocol, should play versus Cowboys.
