The Cowboys plan to play third-string quarterback Richard Bartel the whole way in Thursday's final "tune-up" for the regular season against the Vikings. Local media has sort of ignored Bartel in its haste to bring in Chris Simms and John Beck as the third quarterback. But internally, quarterbacks coach Wade Wilson and Jason Garrett have been pleased with Bartel's progress. For him, Thursday represents a huge opportunity. Bartel has a strong arm, but he'll need to make better decisions against the Vikings. The good news is that he'll have some huge support at Texas Stadium. He grew up playing high school football about 10 miles away in Grapevine.
I'm told that the family of legendary local pastor Jimmy Draper has purchased at least 17 tickets in support of Bartel. Unlike Jim Zorn and Andy Reid, Wade Phillips won't let his starters anywhere near the field Thursday. And that's the way it should be.

Sounds exciting...

Unfortunately, college football is in the way of me wanting to watch this game. It should actually be pretty competitive with Dallas, Wade Phillips announced there are only 5 to 6 roster spots available, so those players that are facing Cut-Day are going to be giving it their all.

So far Sam Hurd is all over the field.

I clicked over just in time to see the reverse. Boy if he could just fine-tune his skills, he'd be a hell of a slot reciever for us.

It's a shame we've lost Miles Austin, him and Romo have been getting some mad chemistry playing together supposedly.

Jones is looking good. (Felix) I think he is gonna be something special.

**SouthernWebb04** · 08-28-2008, 07:21 PM

Definetely. He'll be exactly what Julius Jones should've been, and that's a great change of pace back. Only difference being that Felix Jones is fine with contact, Julius just folded when he got tagged.

LOL @ tagged.. More like touched.
