Forecasting a high of 90! Normally low humidity in Dallas as you get into the afternoon.

I just can't watch the abortion that is SMU football right now so I have 2 tickets I can email to anyone that wants them.

I hope we hand cooper the ball 40 times. Let the big dog eat

That works for me.

Wait. I thought we didn't want to run the ball up the middle?

Not with a wide out. I even said in the Cincinnati game Craft was not good. Several 4 yard runs that should have been 15 plus. He does not have vision of a running back. He hasn't played the position since he was like 8 years old. Dorceus and cooper will be the two best backs in the league next year

90 degrees! ugh.

It won't feel like it. Dry air.

So let me get this straight..Sam Craft is AVERAGING 3.9 YPC, with no carry of more than 19 yards..had 38 carries for 170 yards against Cincy (averaged 4.7 YPC)...and that is "not good"

I strongly anticipate a heavy dose of rushing attempts by the firm of Hayes, Craft, and Cooper tomorrow. If Lynch throws more than 16 passes I'll be surprised.

Control the game on the ground and dominate TOP.

Plus, in all honesty, it helps keep the score down. Fuente does not strike me as a coach who will run the score up.

A running back would have doubled the yardage is what I'm saying. Craft is one of my favorites. He's a slot guy not a rb though

It's painfully obvious that Cooper is a far better option at running back than Craft and Hayes. Craft is as much a running back as Lynch is. Hayes is just too small for anything but screen passes and options. Cooper is as close to Dorceus as we can get right now. Too bad our coaches aren't seeing what we do.

Yeah, cause we see so much more of them than they do.

We see what matters. Games.

What about the weather? Any updates on the forecast?

Still the same.....high of 90...no rain in forecast...wind from the south at 5-10 miles and hour......and.....no ebola.

Dude, get a grip.

The game is at 11. It'll only be about 75 or 80.

How are the kids going to react to playing that early?
