You should call TO the invisible man -you can hear him, but you can never see him around!
It looks like his antics for attention will make him another Duane Thomas style Cowboy. What a total waste of so much talent…….another head case. Too bad really…..
What is old Bill Parcells and Jerry Jones thinking about with their ancient ideas. Mr. Jones needs to get a more up to date offense minded coach in the style of Norv Turner. Did you learn anything under Jimmy Johnson, Jerry. Why did you let the coaches under Jimmy go else where and bring in the out of date Tuna. You guys are unbelievable. Bledsoe needs to go on and retire or come off of the bench. The “Dallas Cowboy Nation” has suffered long enough. Oh Emmitt, Troy, Michael and Jimmy “where fore are thou”?

This should be a great hard-hitting football game. Both teams need this game bad, and they are very similar teams. The Redskins will try to run the football with Clinton Portis, and then take shots deep to Santana Moss just like last season when they played. The Cowboys have a very good defense against both the run and pass so Brunell will have to be efficient and not make any bad throws.
The Cowboys will need to keep Redskins out of their backfield on passing downs. Drew Bledsoe tends to panic and make bad throws. If he gets time, Bledsoe should have his way with the Skins CBs who had a little trouble with the Jaguars no-name receivers. Terrell Owens and Terry Glenn will stretch the field and make it a little easier for Julius Jones to run.
This should be a great game that could go either way.
