Cowboys Week

[Joemailman]

Nick Perry's contract drive is in reverse. Hayward's is stalled.

Hayward just hasn't been the same player since his hamstring problems. Too bad about Perry. Pretty good player when he's healthy. Still wouldn't mind bringing him back if his injury problems make him affordable.

[Patler]

I can see them being more interested in Perry than Hayward. I don't think either one will be very expensive. When healthy, Perry gives them things others don't, except maybe Jones if they continue playing him there. While you never have enough DBs who can cover, Randall and Rollins look like guys who deserve to be on the field a lot. Goodson and Gunter seem to have potential.

[ThunderDan]

A TD favorite, so what? How much were they favored when the Bears and Lions beat them? If they lose this one, it's not a let down, just more of the same.

I don't look at the last game as a typical emotional win. They played poorly for much of that game, and won more or less by accident. I don't think there is much to come down from.

If they play poorly and lose, it's not from a let down, its because that is who they are; a team that loses at home to bad teams, teams they are expected to beat.

The D has been playing well since the Car game
You can only hold the other team to around 300 yards per game and not expect to win.

The D hemmed ages yards for 3 weeks but no seems,to be fixed.

Ya, I agree. I almost limited my earlier response to just the offense. Their two wins and two "almosts" were largely due to the defense giving the offense a chance

[gbgary]

they better snap out of the spell they're in and kick the boys' asses back here to dallas. that should put jerah's playoff fantasy to bed...unless the rest of the nfc east decides to cooperate and loses.

Right to the heart of the matter.

What will a win mean? Another week to figure it out while the stakes are high.

Well, by gum, I think the Packers COULD pick up a notch (their first) on their 2015 belt by knocking off the Cowboys and scoring a load of points on them.

Might push Jerrah over the edge. He is getting more clever. Nowhere is he quoted as saying they have his full confidence.

Practice Status
DNP = Did not participate in practice
LP = Limited Participation in Practice - Less than 100% of a player's normal repetitions
FP = Full Participation - 100% of a player's normal repetitions
Out = Player will not play
(-) = Not Listed = No practice status available

Game Status
Out = Player will not play
Doubtful = 25% chance a player will play
Questionable = 50% chance a player will play
Probable = 75% chance a player will play

Bach and Randall good bets to play tomorrow with full practices and probable status. Matthews and Lang are probable despite limited practice. Bulga and Monty, with limited practice all week are good candidates to be inactive tomorrow as questionable.

Don't think we see Perry or Linsley.
