Parcells Shaking Things Up

From the latest Jaime Aron article.

Bill Parcells said the Dallas Cowboys went through a practice Wednesday that was structured differently from all the other midweek workouts they've had this season. And, he volunteered, things are going to be different on Thursday, too.

"I wanted to try to do a little something that I thought would help us in dealing with Kansas City's offense and defense," he said. "That's all. No big deal. Nothing major."

I don't care what they did as long as they are trying something. We've been saying it all week, something needs to happen to snap this bunch out of their offensive funk.

From a Doug Tucker article on the Kansas City beat.

Perhaps just as importantly, good health has returned to a team that a month ago was hobbled at key spots. Left tackle Willie Roaf, who missed much of the season with a hamstring injury, has not only returned, he's regained the dominating form that took him to 10 Pro Bowls. Right guard Will Shields also has shrugged off back problems and is playing the way he did while earning 10 Pro Bowl trips himself.

Why, of why, can't they be saying stuff like that about our line. Imagine the above paragraph read this way:

Perhaps just as importantly, good health has returned to a team that a month ago was hobbled at key spots. Left tackle Flozell Adams, who missed much of the season with a knee injury, has not only returned, he's regained his Pro Bowl form. Right guard Marco Rivera also has shrugged off back problems and is playing the way he did while earning Pro Bowl trips himself.

How sweet would that be right around now?

I think Rivera's comment in the article sums it up the best, "there is no magic potion, we just got to go out and do it (meaning sustaining blocks)" Bledsoe also sounded confident so I guess we'll see. But Grizz is right, it would be sweet to have a few guys on the line playing at a pro bowl level. I could definitely see a long winning streak coming if that was the case.
