Cowboys-Redskins Week 15 Preview
December 17, 2010 by Jeric Griffin
Filed under Uncategorized
The Dallas Cowboys will play the Washington Redskins at noon on Sunday in the final home game of the season. With the playoffs out of reach, Dallas will be looking to pass Washington in the division race, so you could call this a battle for last place in the NFC East. Redskins coach Mike Shanahan [...]

For those of you that tune into Back Sports Page Texas on Thursday evenings and have heard me talk with host Jay Maguire about the Dallas Cowboys’ quarterback situation, I’m curious to know what you think. Since we’re just making this a free-for-all, I guess I should share this with those who haven’t listened. With [...]
Cowboys Running Back Tashard Choice Makes Team Owner Jerry Jones Look Silly
December 6, 2010 by Jeric Griffin
Filed under Uncategorized
Dallas Cowboys running back Marion Barber missed Sunday’s win over the Indianapolis Colts with a strained calf muscle. To replace him in the Cowboys’ two-running back rotation, Tashard Choice was promoted from third to second on the team depth chart.

Since Peyton Manning became the Indianapolis Colts’ quarterback in 1998, he has beaten Dallas twice in his three meetings with the Cowboys. On Sunday, the Boys hit the road to Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis to try and even the record against Manning. Since the Colts are currently riding a 2-game losing streak, some might [...]

Cowboys’ Barber Breaks New Coach Garrett’s Dress Code

Filed under Uncategorized
Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett implemented a new team dress code for his first game as skipper. Before and after this past Sunday’s win over the Giants, Cowboys players were seen in sports coats, slacks, ties, and dress shoes. Unlike the past Wade Phillips administration (if I may use that term), players are now required [...]
Cowboys-Packers Week 9 Preview
November 5, 2010 by Jeric Griffin
Filed under Uncategorized
My, how the buildup of this game has vanished. Two months ago, I predicted Sunday night’s contest at Lambeau Field to be a preview of the NFC Championship game. Now neither the Cowboys nor Packers look like a team primed for a Super Bowl run. Albeit Green Bay has actually put together a pretty solid [...]
Cowboys Among League Leaders in Yards, But Not Wins
November 4, 2010 by Jeric Griffin
Filed under Uncategorized
Somehow the Cowboys have the 4th best offense in the NFL despite a 1-6 record. A top three passing attack combined with the 2nd-worst running game in the league statistically prove that numbers aren’t all that. The fact that the overall offense is ranked so high with such a contrast in the rankings of the [...]
