Cowboys coach Wade Phillips revealed Wednesday that OLB DeMarcus Ware has been playing this season with a stress fracture in his foot. "It will get better with time," Phillips said. "We don't expect it to be a problem." It certainly wasn't against the Chiefs. Ware notched his first two sacks of the seasono in Kansas City. "It's been bothering him for a couple of weeks," Phillips said. "His foot was sore, but he played last game and did all right I thought. He's been playing well. It's not a major injury. It's one he can play with." Phillips also said RB Marion Barber has an injured thumb. More details on that injury to come. (UPDATE: An X-ray after the Kansas City game revealed the Barber fractured his left thumb. It's the same injury that RG Leonard Davis has. Both players will wear casts against the Falcons on Sunday.

Time for a Quality Win

I'd like to believe the Cowboys have figured a few things out over the last few weeks. They have had two weeks to prepare for a team that is young but very talented. The Cowboys have three wins but they have all come against teams that aren't exactly spectacular. They had a real chance to beat the Giants and the Broncos but they didn't get the job done down the stretch...
