I would like to first wish everyone good spirits in lieu of Hurricane Sandy and say that I hope everyone out there is OK, and suffered little to no issues with this massive phenomena.
The Week 9 WR rankings have two immediate concerns: Jordy Nelson of the Packers and DeSean Jackson of the Eagles.
Jordy Nelson is dealing with a hamstring issue, but could’ve played last week according to coach McCarthy while Jackson is dealing with an ankle issue that isn’t as serious as immediately thought—both players are expected to play as of now, but if anything changes I will let you know here.
Keep in mind that Kansas City and San Diego square off on Thursday Night, while Philadelphia and New Orleans square off Monday Night.
New England, St. Louis, New York Jets and San Francisco are all on the bye week, so the WK 9 WR rankings will reflect this as usual. As always, you can brush up on all of your other rankings here.
ONE VERY INTERESTING NOTE: The Lions acquired WR Mike Thomas from J...

Cowboys VP: Romo right guy going foward
Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo has thrown nine interceptions in his last two games at Cowboys Stadium with four coming in Sunday's 29-24 loss to the New York Giants. The franchise quarterback that has never tossed more than 19 picks in a season is on pace to throw 30 this year.
At 32, critics are wondering out loud if Romo should be the Cowboys' quarterback of the future...

Brandon Carr was the Dallas Cowboys’ big free agent signing during the offseason and expected to become a shutdown corner for their defense. The fifth-year cornerback did a good job against the Giants last weekend despite New York having some of the top wide receivers in the league (New York also didn’t pass that much). How does Carr account for his good showing in Week 8 compared...

Tony Romo's Inconsistent, Lack of Clutch Play Will Never Lead Cowboys to Super Bowl Victory

October 29, 2012
If you look at Tony Romo's statistics, you might wonder why the Cowboys aren't Super Bowl contenders every year. To cop a phrase from Bill Belichick, sometimes "stats are for losers." And the Cowboys will be losers for as long as Romo is under center.
The problem with the Cowboys' quarterback is that you have no idea who you're getting...

Cowboys don't want season to slip out of reach
The Dallas Cowboys now must try to keep their season from slipping out of reach.
They were so close to being within a half-game of the NFC East lead and having a vital tiebreaker. But they missed a season sweep of the division-leading New York Giants (6-2) by the length of Dez Bryant's fingertips.
Coach Jason Garrett said Monday there's a tremendous amount of urgency for...

Last week: 16 (-1)
Record: 3-4
The good news for the Cowboys is that they rank 8th in yards per play differential and 7th in rate of sustaining drives differential. The biggest issue, by far, has been turnover differential so far for them, as they have a turnover differential of -11, 2nd worst in the NFL. The good news is that turnover differentials are incredibly inconsistent, as...

The return of DeMarco Murray in Week 9 is far from certain. Murrary has been hobbled with an injured foot and did not play in Sunday’s loss to the New York Giants.
“It seems like he’s moving around a little bit better,” Garrett said. “Again, that’s an injury you have to be patient with. We don’t want to rush him back then take any backward steps. We’ll see how he...

Its unlikely that linebacker Dan Connor will be able to play Sunday night against Atlanta.
The Cowboys were still awaiting the results of an MRI late Monday afternoon. But since Connor has experienced a stinger in consecutive games, the club will be reluctant to put him back on the field so quickly.
I dont have anything specific on Dan yet, head coach Jason Garrett said...

He is also in the last year of his contract and is playing in a backup role so far. Contending teams need cornerbacks and Jenkins might be able to bring some in return, but his contractual future makes a trade a...

Dez Bryants days as a punt returner arent necessarily over. The wideout, who made a questionable decision to retrieve a punt, muffed the catch and then fumbled the ball away in the first quarter of the Cowboys loss to the Giants, may still handle that role.
I dont want to make any definitive statements about how were going to use guys, head coach Jason Garrett said...

October 30, 2012
The New York Giants beat the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday by five points because Dez Bryant couldn’t move his hand about 3 inches. In actuality, the Cowboys lost the game because Tony Romo threw the ball to the Giants 7 million times. The effort by Bryant was spectacular. It was a great catch, but unfortunately his hand landed a couple inches out-of-bounds.

Dear Tony,
I tried my best to avoid writing this letter, but at the end of the day I just couldn’t help it. I have two issues I’d like to address. The first has to do with the picture above. This was right after you rushed for a 1-yard touchdown. You celebrated as if you just won the Super Bowl. At that point in the game, the Cowboys were still losing and you had already thrown...

Expect an exciting tight end battle this Sunday night between Jason Witten and Tony Gonzalez. Both of these players are the star tight ends of the league. Witten just came off of an 18 reception, 167 yard game. Gonzalez is a little inconsistent, but you can’t risk benching him. Coming off of a bad game last week and with an opponent like Witten this week, Gonzalez will...
