Cowboys fear running back Dunbar lost for season
The New Orleans Saints feel a lot better about themselves after securing their first victory of this season, but they know they still face an uphill battle to climb into playoff contention.
And while Drew Brees did finish the game completing 33-of-41 attempts for 359 yards, two touchdowns and a 119.4 passer rating, he had played much of the game as if a quarterback with a bruised rotator cuff, choosing to dink and dunk his way down field.
Tony Romo is hoping to rejoin the Dallas Cowboys against the Miami Dolphins in Week 11 of the National Football League season.
Lance Dunbar had emerged for the Dallas Cowboys through three weeks, ranking among the team leaders in both receptions and receiving yards.
Of course, bringing in these players back on the field is going to help them, but not for the entire season.
Owner Jerry Jones said Tuesday more reinforcements could be coming soon, namely Bryant, who had surgery to fix a broken right foot.
After the game, Cowboys’ head coach Jason Garrett addressed the situation saying, “That is something we discussed with him and our other running backs how we want to handle that situation”. If his wide receivers are covered, he will throw it out of bounds or check it down to a running back.
The Cowboys had warned Randle about reaching the ball across the plane after he did it on a one-yard touchdown run against the Falcons a week earlier. Saints would answer with a long methodical drive ending in with a 29-yard Zach Hocker field goal to tie the game up again, late in the third quarter. “He’s gotten more opportunities this year”. Joseph Randle and Darren McFadden aren’t running away with anything at the top of the Cowboys’ depth chart.
But remember, the Buccaneers beat the Saints in New Orleans for their only win. The injury will rule out Dunbar for the rest of the season leaving a huge vacant spot to fill. “But we have guys in-house who can do different things and hopefully we’ll play to those strengths”. He’s a hell of a kid, and he’s got a great future ahead of him. We’ve got another game next week.
The best way for the offensive line and the offense to take over a game is by establishing the running game. The Cowboys have been playing not to lose.
And right now, the Eagles’ total of one win is good enough have them just a game out of the lead in the NFC East. “I watched them all the time growing up and they say it’s America’s Team, so anytime you get a chance to play the Cowboys, it’s always a big deal”. He sidestepped a pass rusher before firing a strike over the middle to Benjamin Watson for 21 yards and sold a fake handoff before flipping a simple three-yard pass to Josh Hill in the end zone.
