Just face it, if we win this game, we will DOMINATE the cumgirls this year. Nuff' said. By the way, Terry Glenn and TO are too fast for ST to cover 1 on 1, so don't go sayin' if TO beats our secondary that it's his fault. You guys may beat us this week, but when our secondary is healthy, Springs is faster than T.O., and won't be a problem.

I would let Taylor try and send a message early to him or Glenn that they are not catching the ball around him. If it means a 15 yarder early, so be it. We need that toughness, that strut back.

This is exactly why I miss Shawn Springs. As long as he and Taylor were near T.O. (when we played the Eagles), the man wasn't very effective. They had the ability to intimidate him with ferocious hits. Hopefully, G. Williams will have something up his sleeve to contain Dallas' receivers. I'm especially worried at the prospect of a Witten-Archuleta matchup. Reminds me of Jay Novacek versus Alvin Walton. We would do best to have Marcus Washington or one of the other linebackers covering and use Archuleta to beat the stew out of Bledsoe on blitzes.

what's all this jive talk about Alvin Walton?

I believe whoever wants this game most will win it. If we're in disarray they are in no better situation at this point. We sucked in week one and guess what so did Dallas. One of these team will show they are alot better than they played last week and one wont...lets hope it's Gibbs guys who show up.

Bledsoe is a statue standing in quicksand...Brunnell is alot more mobile than he is as is Johnson...hammer Bledsoe...blitz him...dont give him enough time to look around for much of anything and we win this game. Let him stand back there and we're toast. Their O-Line isn't very good either....not anything near Minnesota's O-line IMO. If you pressure Bledsoe you can beat Dallas...if you dont he can beat you. It's kind of simple even if our secondary is banged up.

Brad Johnson and Mobile in the same sentence.

WOW.

Johnson is not mobile.

He has a World Class O line is what the deal is there.

Johnson isn't mobile, but I'd put my money on him in a race against Bledsoe.

And which one of us is young enough to see that race finish?

Who has that kind of time, really?

The key to the game: Throw at anthony henry deep! Do it often. He might be the worst corner in the league at playing the ball in the air.

He does have a tendancy to look terrible for a game.

Last year your new WR Lloyd lit him up in SF, but he was solid before and after that.

Regardless, he's the weak link in the chain. If I'm going to pick a DB to throw at on the Cowboys, it's him.

One key is: replace Portis!

ASHBURN, Va. (AP) - Washington Redskins coach Joe Gibbs has ruled running back Clinton Portis out for Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys.
Gibbs says Portis didn't practice today and -- quote -- "If a guy doesn't practice, he's not going to play."
Gibbs says Ladell Betts, T.J. Duckett and Rock Cartwright will be the running backs against the Cowboys.
Portis has been downgraded from questionable to doubtful on the injury report, with Gibbs citing soreness from the pounding Portis took from playing in the season opener against Minnesota on Monday night.
But the announcement by Gibbs took Portis by surprise, saying that he thought it was a game-time decision and that his "bag's packed and ready to go to Dallas."
Last week, Portis spent several days downplaying his chances to make the season opener, but rushed for 39 yards and a touchdown against the Vikings.
