“Coach Zimmer, he’s never missed a game and I know how hard this is on him”. However, one of the risks of retina surgery can be blindness. We have to look out at what’s best for you, and that’s the number one concern that anyone is anxious about.
“This morning I think Coach Zimmer finally realized how significant this injury is”, Spielman said earlier in the day. Elliott finished with 86 yards and a touchdown on 20 carries.
The Dallas Cowboys (10-1) are the team to beat in 2016 after ripping of a current ten-game winning streak.
“Well, he’s one of the better backs I’ve seen in quite a while”, Zimmer said Tuesday. “He’s really an all-purpose guy that catches the ball very well out of the backfield”. The Vikings will throw a variety of looks at Dak Prescott he hasn’t seen before.
The Cowboys: We’re not sure who the offensive rookie of the year will be, but we he wears a star on his helmet.
When he returns to the job, Zimmer could wear a patch if vision in his right eye is still blurry. Thursday’s meeting is a matchup of strengths.
Dez Bryant scored a fourth-quarter touchdown one play after the Cowboys’ first takeaway since October 30, and Dallas (11-1) won its 11th consecutive game to tie a franchise record. “Across the board they’ve got some tough matchups”.
Elliott had a fumble on the second drive of the game, seemingly setting up the Vikings at the 15. But there is a third phase of football, and if the Cowboys aren’t careful, it could play a major role in the game. Led by two rookies, their offense has been elite all season long. “Typically that gives you a good chance to win”. We had a good battle.
Both teams come into the game with a full week’s rest and preparation.
For some reason, the critics continue to place barriers up for Dallas, still not convinced this team is for real.
DEFENSIVE SHUFFLE: Cowboys safety Barry Church will be back after missing four games with a broken right forearm, but his replacement, J.J. Wilcox, is likely out with a thigh injury. Dallas is the third-highest scoring offense in the National Football League (28.7 points/game), according to ESPN’s Team stats.
Even though Romo’s base salary drops to $14.5 million in 2017 to be supplemented by a couple of million dollars in roster bonuses, Romo will count nearly $25 million against the Cowboys cap next year as a Cowboy, and just over $20 million against the Cowboys cap even if he’s no longer with the team. Let’s discuss those as usual, starting with the things that made us happy! “Then, I watched those two rounds pass by, and it woke me up on Saturday a little anxious and a little pissed”. Last night he went under emergency surgery for a detached retina, which I know everyone knows about. After the two almost ended up in a postgame fight following several testy exchanges, Bryant yelled toward reporters on his way into the locker room that the Redskins should ask for their money back. He was back at practice on Wednesday in full and hopes to play on Thursday night against Dallas. Versatile backup Mike Harris has spent the season on injured reserve with an unspecified illness. Keep an eye on crafty slot receiver Cole Beasley (three TDs in past three road games), as well as veteran tight end Jason Witten (second all-time among TEs with 1,072 receptions and 11,768 yards). By NFL rules he can’t communicate with coaches and players during the game. As of Tuesday, he was considered questionable.
