CB situation just ruined our chance to get the key WR in FA

AT you bring up a great point; Why was MT out there in the first place. Was it really that critical. I would like to hear Payton's reasoning on that one with our best player.

You want your best hands on the field for that play. Thomas misjudged it plain and simple. He’s also dropped a pass or two. Should we consider replacing him on passing downs?

You talk like we have a high school or college sized active roster. We can only dress 45 players on game day. Thomas in on the "hands team" which is where he belongs. They were talking about this very subject on Monday on Moving the Chains on NFL Radio. Kirwan and Miller both stressed that you can't simply sit out players at the end of games when you already have a few already banged up. It's more dangerous bringing in a player not accustomed to filling the role. It can result in injury to himself or others. Football is a violent game and injuries can happen at any time, even if you are simply standing on the sideline.

Why was Dez Bryant "practicing" when he got injured?

The players with the best hands are on the hands team. It’s been like that for as long as I can remember.
