Clinton Portis 50/50 for the Dallas game, injury updates

[GMScud]

Pass pro has been a big issue for Dallas, and with Portis looking like he won't play and Betts still not full go, we're gonna have to pass first in this one. I hope all the assessments the coaches did during the bye week have some plans to compensate when 26 can't get on the field.

Last week I was pumped for this game. Now I'm a little more worried.

You know the funny thing is, this is the WCO, we're SUPPOSE to pass first. I think we kinda got away from that.

Well, I think we've been using a lot of WCO passing schemes, but Zorn has been smartly playing to our strength so far, which has been downhill running with a great run-blocking line and pro-bowl RB. With Portis out it certainly changes things. Although with Moss nursing the perennial hammy, I'm not too thrilled about the idea of throwing a ton either. Time to learn the play book Devin Thomas. We need you.

I agree, and the simple fact of it is our WR minus Moss is mediocre so we have had to rely too much on Clinton. If our WR corp(Moss excluded) doesn't step up to the plate our season is toast!!!!!!
