Cowboys Terry Glenn out for the season. 

Post#1 » by Wizards2Lottery » Fri Sep 7, 2007 8:49 pm

Saw it on ESPN. I'll take it. Glenn had a knack for toasting the Skins (even though he had his share of butter fingers near Taylor). I think this seriously hurts there chances. Patrick Crayton is a decent slot guy who I think can be covered easily without safety help.

As of now he is only out for the two weeks.

Glenn is expected to miss at least two weeks, but the tests will determine exactly how long he will be out.

Two weeks is the absolute minimum, but it's Terry Glenn we're talking about. This is a guy who once missed 3 weeks with a infected fingernail. I'd bet the remainder of the bottle of Chianti next to me he's out until the middle of October at the earliest.

As a Cowboys fan I am not worried AT ALL. We still have numerous weapons without Glenn. Owens, Jones, Barber, Witten could all get over 1,000 yards this season. Crayton will fill in for Glenn greatly. He is a very solid WR, I have no worries about this. We'll miss you Glenn, get well soon!! Pussy.

Terry Glenn is a 1000 yard wide reciever. All Patrick Crayton has ever done is get single coverage by the teams third corners. Remind me when he does good against quality corners like he will have too now.

Your only good weapons on offense are TO and Witten. Jones and Barber are merely average players.

You just channeled Shannon Sharpe and Pat Kirwin's thoughts on separate shows on NFL Radio yesterday.

Expect a lot of 2 WR sets and Witten split out. You just don't replace Terry Glenn--he's still a darn good WR when he's healthy and focused.

I do like Marion Barber at RB quite a bit--he can become a pretty good feature back once they dump the generic Jones.

I hope this means more plays for Fasano. I think he's better than Witten anyway.

This is a huge blow to the Cowboys. I know when we played the Cowboys last year, Glenn was the first player I was worried about.* And if my memory is correct, he caught the clincher to end the game.

*of course that had a lot to do with him lining up across from Allen Rossum

why do think he's better? fasano hasnt done sh*t since coming into the league. he's had one meaningful play and that was a 3rd down catch vs. the colts that helped clinch the game, and he almost screwed that up by celebrating but thankfully someone touched him.

anyways high5 it was barber that clinched it for us, he ran all over you in the 4th quarter.

They still get more production than Portis. And we didnt have to give up possibly the best CB in the league for them. And TO is still better than all your recievers combined so im not worried.

agleed. Glen was very good last season, he reminds me of Joey galloway- old fast speedy recievers people never talk about.

:rofl: in a season when Clinton Portis was hurt. Our backup RB outrushed Julius Jones in 10 less starts. GTFO, the Cowboys are the most overrated team in the NFC. No significant injuries last year and you still stunk and only beat one team over .500.

The Glenn, Ellis, Newman injuries just make it worse for a team that was merely average to begin with. Now your asking Jacques Reeves, Sam Hurd, Patrick Crayton and Anthony Spencer to replace quality starters in the league :rofl:

Get ready for another dissapointing season. The longest playoff win draught in the NFC East continues...

You guys didn't have a chance. DeMarcus Ware's pick on Vick was NASTY. And T.O. WORKED DeAngelo Hall. He made him his bitch.

Averaging around 500 yards a season is average. His 4.8 YPC last year is a skewed stat because of the amount of third and longs he ran against prevent defenses.

But hey I'm sure you were on the Troy Hambrick bandwagon back in the days too when he looked as good as Marion Barber in a backup role :lol:

What does that have to do with anything? :rofl:

Losing Terry Glenn doesn't mean anything because Ware made a sweet interception last year!!!! (Vick threw it right at him, he'd have to have terrible hands not to make that pick)
