    I like this move, but do they have to do it now? With only 2 rb's on the roster? :shock:

    Phillip Tanner is a stud, though :)

    The Cowboys and Eagles face off Sunday night in Philadelphia. Here is a look at the keys to victory for Dallas:

    Punish Vick
    This season, Eagles quarterback Michael Vick has been hit more than 30 times when he's dropped back to pass. He's suffered a concussion and a badly bruised right hand. As his body has taken a beating, his performance has declined. He has thrown eight interceptions, lost three fumbles and has posted a rather ordinary quarterback rating of 84.4. The Cowboys, who have collected 17 sacks this season, need to pressure Vick and attack a permeable offensive line.

    Stick with the run
    Last week, the Cowboys ran the ball ten times more than they passed it. Their strategy proved effective as the Cowboys scored touchdowns on three of their four red-zone opportunities while rookie DeMarco Murray ripped through St. Louis' woeful defense and rushed for a franchise-record 253 yards. Against a Philadelphia front that features a weak corps of linebackers, the Cowboys need to pound the ball again. The Eagles are yielding 123.8 rushing yards per game and have yet to find the antidote for fleet-footed tailbacks.

    Stop the run
    While DeSean Jackson, Jeremy Maclin and Philadelphia's speedy group of wide receivers steal the headlines and draw the most attention, tailback LeSean McCoy is accumulating some impressive statistics. He has already rushed for 569 yards this year and leads a ground attack that is the most productive in the NFL . The Cowboys, who have bottled up Frank Gore and Steven Jackson this season, will face another big test this week. But so far they have passed every one.

    Eliminate the big plays
    In a split second, Philadelphia can change the complexion of a game. With dynamic, explosive players such as Michael Vick, DeSean Jackson and LeSean McCoy, the Eagles can punish a defense in an instant. They have produced 35 plays of 20 yards or more this year - the third-highest total in the NFL. The Cowboys don't want the Eagles to add to that sum. And all week long, they have emphasized the importance of eliminating Philadelphia's quick-strike options.

    They are making room for a linebacker...I'm guessing the MRI showed his injury to be serious...can resign him after the season if available.

    I thought they had trade offers on him...if the injury is not serious this is stupid...why not that kicker Buehler?

    good luck to the eagles...i'm not very confidant in dallas especially with the eagles coming off a bye and reids record after a bye.

    hoping for a great game.

    at 4 Pittsburgh and NE to get all warmed up for Sunday nighter.

    I'm not worried about what the Giants do...this Cowboy team will not the division...and Jones proved once again by releasing Choice why they'll never win with him as GM.

    Why is Bennet even on the field...really...Philips should be the number 2 tight end...that pick is not on Romo. This D looks like the D I figured they'd be from the get go.

    The O line is just terrible...but the bottom line is through 1 quarter they've yet to complete or attempt 1 pass to Austin or Bryant.

    It's frustrating...I've said it before...this team will not win until Jerry is no longer in control.

    Just look...he releases Choice a few after being offered a trade for him...he keeps 2 kickers on the roster...Bennet, why he is on the Roster...the O line is horrible and has not been dominate in years...most years they are lucky if 3 of their draft picks make the team.

    This is not the stuff that championship teams are built on. And really did Jason do anything as the OC to convince people that he deserved to be head coach?

    The problems are just endless with this team.

    Where are the Dallas Sidekicks when you need 'em? They were the most consistently successful franchise Dallas has ever had, but they are no more.
