Reading McClain back, Hayden and Crawford and i think Brent playing. Free out and can't find anything good on Hitchens, but can't find anything saying definitely out either. Really hoping somehow Hitchens can play. With our regular LBs I feel like it reduces the need for the safeties to play up and lets them help out in the passing game more, plus with Wilbur in there he isn't the cover guy Hitchens is. If we double Calvin we will need a lot of help with everyone else, especially with Tate in the middle of the field.

Anyone hear something more definitive on Hitchens either way?

Last report on Hitchens was questionable, now considering he hasn't practiced all week I don't think we'll see him on the field today. Crawford hasn't practiced either but it was due to an alergic reaction. Not sure what the reaction was to.

I haven't seen a Dallas player play all yr that missed every practice. The playoffs are different though.

I thought McClain played one week after not practicing. But, you are right. The rules change a little in the playoffs

Inactives come out 90 minutes before kickoff I believe.
