Tony Romo is set to return during Week 11.
However, thanks to the rest of the East’s struggles, there is no reason to shovel dirt on the Cowboys’ grave.
Still the 3-4 Seahawks maintain one of the NFL’s top rushing attacks with 143.3 yards per game, and starter Marshawn Lynch notched his first 100-plus yard game of the season with 122 yards and one score last week after dealing with a hamstring injury last month.
Hardy’s rant continued down the sideline, with several teammates, including Dez Bryant, Tyrone Crawford, Nick Hayden and DeMarcus Lawrence, seemingly attempting to calm Hardy. The Cowboys have a minus-9 turnover differential. On Tuesday, Jones said his thoughts today are no different than after Sunday’s game, when the owner said Hardy was a leader and that he encouraged that kind of passion Hardy exhibited in verbal confrontations with receiver Dez Bryant andspecial teams coordinator Rich Bisaccia.
“I really do understand completely their perspective and they know, I don’t need to say it again, in no way is anybody anything but against any type of domestic violence”, Jones said.
At the beginning of the season, the Week 8 matchup was billed as a might-have-been showdown (nearly the NFC Championship contestants one year ago) between two of the league’s elite squads.
Sunday: Seattle Seahawks (3-4) at Dallas Cowboys (2-4), 1:25 p.m.
Following Romo’s injury, Cassel, a 12-year veteran, was acquired by the Cowboys in a trade with Buffalo.
His sideline antics in Sunday’s 27-20 loss to the New York Giants caused a firestorm across the National Football League and social media.
“I would tell him, “Listen, man, I hear your point, but here are ours”, Scott said”. Now his support of Hardy after the defenseman’s latest antics only makes the situation worse.
“I’ve suggested he apologize, but that’s all I can do”, Mincey said.
According to the NFL.com story, this is not about to happen any time soon, but there is the offseason and two backups who have shown nothing so far in Brandon Weeden and then Matt Cassel, it is certainly on the minds of a few, if not plenty of Cowboys fans. Hardy missed the first four games while suspended under the NFL’s personal conduct policy.
“We come from similar backgrounds, and he loves music”, Mincey said.
“We have guys who work hard individually but work hard also for the team to make it the best team we can make it. The guys who work the hardest and the guys who are the most productive have the most influence on the team, and that’s a good thing”. There are a lot of things to build on, hopefully we can this week.

“I’ll be better this week”. Head coach Jason Garrett has full confidence in McFadden. “I was standing right there, ” Garrett claimed. I mean why would that big family even think about going on another vacation the following year after leaving me at home the first time?
