I thought I’d do a series of breakdowns of the different spots on the team. I’ll be looking at last year’s players, players recently taken in the 2011 Draft, free agent prospects, and sound strategies for next year. To begin this series, I’m looking at easily the most stable group for the team right now; the quarterbacks. KEY PLAYERS Tony Romo –
The NFL continued their series of The Top 100 Players of 2011, as voted by the players themselves. Tonight 80-71 were revealed. The first Dallas Cowboy has made the list, and its Jay Ratliff landing the #75 spot.Tom Coughlin narrated the Ratliff piece and gave some high praises. Good stuff! There was another Cowboy making tonight’s list and it was Tony Romo landing the #72
The 2010 season was a colossal disappointment and no other unit received more scrutiny at season’s end than the offensive line. Fans wanted the Cowboys to draft some offensive lineman and sure enough we drafted three of them. This confirmed what we already knew, meaning, the offensive line needed help. This was the first phase of what needs to be a year when we revamp the
The NFL Network came up with a Top 10 unluckiest plays in NFL History, to mark today’s Friday the 13th silliness. So, sticking with the theme let’s look at some of the most unluckiest plays in Cowboys history. Let’s go down memory lane, from worst, to the very worst: 4th and Dumb. Barry Switzer. December 10, 1995. The Cowboys were playing the Eagles in Philly,
By now you all know the heart touching story of Ron Springs, and the ultimate sacrifice of his friend and former teammate, Everson Walls. Walls donated one his kidneys to Springs who had been battling diabetes since 1990. Ron Springs has passed away at the age of 54. From Cowboy fans everywhere, we offer our condolences to the Springs family. Since 2007, Springs had been in a coma
Cowboys All-Pro TE Jason Witten, has joined the new iPhone App called Gridiron Grunts. Its free to install, and there are some .99 cent subscription options too. I joined up, and subscribed to Witten’s channel. The app itself is easy to use, and there, are other NFL players on there as well. At the moment, Witten is the only Cowboy on there; however, Im sure more will join. Fans
In 2005, Jay Ratliff was drafted in seventh round as a defensive end prospect. An injury to then-starter Jason Ferguson in 2007 forced Ratliff to play as an undersized nose tackle, but the result was something no one saw coming. Three Pro Bowls and a First Team All-Pro selection later, Ratliff goes into 2011 as one of the staples of our defense and a veteran leader. That said,
Before the NFL Draft and especially now in its aftermath, Cowboys fans have been speculating what 2010 players will not be with the team next season. My CowboysBlog colleague gave his thoughts on Roy Williams’ future in a post yesterday (link). I actually disagree with Joe and think Roy will still be with us next season, but we’ll get to him later. For now, here
Jerry Jones has said that four or five players are in danger of not coming back this upcoming season. So, who’s on that list? Marion Barber and Marc Colombo are the two given, especially after drafting Tyron Smith and DeMarco Murray. Common sense and speculation point to, Terence Newman and Roy Williams being the other two players. Newman’s status will be effected with
May be a little late with this news; but like myself, I don’t think many fans were aware that the UFC actually tried to help out DeMarco Murray win the NCAA Football 12 Cover for EA Sports. Ultimately Mark Ingram snagged the coveted cover for the game. The UFC even had an ad at UFC.com endorsing DeMarco Murray; the ad has GSP, Arianny, Lorenzo Fertitta, and Dana White asking
DeMarco Murray already has a rookie endorsement deal, and its for Adidas. Adidas started a new ad campaign dubbed “All In” and they’ve added 5 top rookie prospects to don the three stripes. The 5 rookies are: DeMarco Murray RB Oklahoma, Titus Young WR Boise St, Prince Amukamara CB Nebraska, Kyle Rudolph TE Notre Dame, and Jerrel Jernigan WR Troy. “Our
