Whether he did or didn't want him, they're bound to clash sometime during the season. Again, Dallas is NOT on the cusp of winning the Super Bowl, hence the reason I don't think TO will do anything for them. They need a running game, they need offensive line help and they need secondary help.

Sandtrapjack beat me to the punch don't read to much to this speculations the media leaves from confilct it's just like all the reports before FA every year that says tah tyour team is in CAP hell and wil lneed to dump every player on the roster and every year nothing happens on contraire you're agressive in FA.
And with the line I believe we have upgrade even thought Larry has been a fundation for our team he has been slipping the past years and it's good to star getting new I just hope our FA pickups produce that's it.

As I'm sure you do. And I'm saying this completely objectively, McNabb is a far superior quarterback to Bledsoe and had a running game (at the time) to fall back on. This is why I'm not worried about the TO addition.
Now I'm basing this purely on opinion, but other than Witten, Dallas really doesn't have any other weapon. I know people want to say Glenn, but no one FEARS him or really is worried about HAVING to put their #1 corner on him.

McNabb yes is better Quarterback than Bledsoe we all know that but thatbdoesn't say Bledsoe is a bad QB we also being completely objective Bledsoe is far better QB than Mark Brunnell especially with protection, Now J.Jones and Barber are way better than Wedsbrook, and Glenn had an excellent year and that with KJ next to him and one of the worst olines and without jones for half the year, and we can agree that in pure talent and performance TO is an upgrade from KJ.
I believe we will have a more explosive offense this year as I also predict yours 2 because you wil have far to manny options for teams 2 cover.

Actually statwise and performance-wise Brunell was slightly better than Bledsoe, which actually was pretty damn good considering the type of running game we had. The Cowboys, with no running game to speak of, were forced to pass early and often hence padding Drew's stats while still not topping Brunell's.
Jones and Barber are better than Westbrook!? Please. Yes, your offense will be more explosive, but only marginally because the pieces aren't really in place for the REST of the offense.

if i'm dallas, i'd be worried about the sluggish secondary. one somewhat fast corner that's over 30, and a bunch of slow dbs vs redskins 4 fast WRs and fast RB = a bad matchup.

Lots of wishful thinking here.
1.) Dallas has a better O line this year. we all saw Daniels get 28 sacks against our CFL linemen last year. It could not have been worse. Really, that line wasn't as good as the Longhorns line -or the BC eagles!
I luv Larry Allen, but he can' t play four quarters anymore. We had our Centre pulling cause Allen could no longer get there.
2.) Newman isn't panning out? WHAT? Teams don't even throw his way.
3.) TO and Parcells. TO in the first year is always an angel. He got his money, and he has never played for a guy with two rings and a bust waiting for him in Canton. Gibbs would've handled TO also, and don't think they weren't interested in signing him.
TO opens the field for the running game. No more 8 man fronts every down.
McNabb is better than Bledsoe but Bledsoe is on a team that actually uses the running back out of the backfield!! Philly throws wayyyyy too much.
Signing TO and Fabiani makes Dallas the front runner in the East this year.

Signing TO and Fabiani makes Dallas the front runner in the East this year.
talk about wishful thinking... where are you getting the rest of your oline and how are your dbs going to keep up with the skins WRs? line up 20 yards deep and see if we can complete uncontested slants and use open running lanes?
