Who's got the better Offensive Line/RB backfield Dallas or Philly?

The start of the NFL season is still more than 90 days away but the energy surrounding the Dallas Cowboys couldn't be higher.

However, there are those with serious doubts that the surprising upstart Dallas team of 2014 will be able to duplicate that same offensive success this season without workhorse DeMarco Murray who fled the coop for greener pastures in Philadelphia.

A recent NFL.com article by NFL writer Marc Sessler strong suggests that without DeMarco the Dallas run game is among the worst in the league despite adding former Oakland Raider Darren McFadden and securing another dominant lineman for the future with the signing of La'El Collins from LSU.

Yet the noise in the crowd gets even louder if you ask some players and Twitter pundits.

Philadelphia Eagles veteran tackle Jason Peters offered up his two cents a few days ago. Let's just say he is less than impressed with Dallas. "The Dallas offensive line is good. We’re just better."

Infidel Castro offered up his thoughts as well: The "jury" is still out and there is a ton of time between the start of the season and where we are today in June.
The Cowboys begin mini-camp today as well as other NFL teams so let the preparation for the games begin in earnest.

Just be sure to mark your calendars #CowboysNation week #2 September 17, 2015 it all comes to a head in Philly.

You say the devil is a lie and the truth ain't in him. But, every time you turn around, you still F*ck wit him. Drinking, doping, & messing around, you better let that 'ish go if you wanna wear a crown. No more time for playing the fool, it's time to stand up straight. Give your heart and mind to Christ before it's everlasting too late. This life here on EARTH is not the end you see, so stop focusing your heart & mind on negativity. Fussing over nothing and crying to sleep. Just give your life up to God and your soul he'll keep. Instead of hanging your head down or running away. Stand up with conviction and finally say, "My God is the truth, the light and the way." - RD "Take care of yourself & don't hurt nobody else."

NFL SEASON KICKOFF 2015

NFL SEASON KICKOFF 2015



The dog days of summer are here and the start of the new NFL season is rapidly approaching but it's not fast enough for the frenzied football fans, particularly those down in #DallasCowboys country. 
The bitter, bitter aftertaste leftover from the debacle in Green Bay is still fresh in the mouths of the #CowboysNation.  With just over three months remaining until the start of the 2015 season many of the "true-blue faithful" believe in earnest  that this Dallas Cowboys team led by @TonyRomo will march towards and win Superbowl XL (50)in California this season.



However, there are still some very important hurdles to cross before the @DallasCowboys begin the journey to hoist their franchise record 6th Lombardi Trophy.



See the short list below in order of importance to the #CowboysNation:



1. <b>Sign @DezBryant to a long term contract </b>-  No other figure in the league today has the electrifying impact as Dez.  When he's on the field the Cowboys opponents are always at a disadvantage.



2. <b> Sign remaining draft picks and get to camp without any holdouts, long suspensions, etc. </b>



3. <b> Practice hard, play harder and stay healthy! </b>

Superbowl XLIX (49) is set

The 2015 calendar turns to February this Sunday and millions across the world will be consumed with football fever as Superbowl XLIX(49) is played in Glendale, Arizona.


The Superbowl is the National Football League (NFL) championship game between the champions of the National Football Conference (NFC) and the American Football Conference (AFC), respectfully. This annual event is held at different NFL stadiums across the country. This year’s contestants are the defending champion Seattle Seahawks led by quarterback Russell Wilson and the three-time champion New England Patriots led by quarterback Tom Brady.


An estimated 112.2 million viewers watched last year’s “big game” making the Superbowl the most watched televised sporting event in America. For the players and coaches, the Superbowl is the summation of the season’s long quest for a championship. To play in such a meaningful event, signifies reaching the pinnacle of a career for all involved from the owner’s box to the field. For the fans of the teams that play in the game the experience takes on an entirely different meaning.


Win or lose just making it to the final game of the season is a fantastic accomplishment for both teams and their fans!


The winning team and its fans will have supreme bragging rights for the entire off-season and beyond. Along with a myriad of endorsement deals for the players, the winners will make a visit to the White House to meet the President and also have a ticker-tape parade in their home city. Sadly, for the loser they will be relegated to only a footnote in defeat which is really sour grapes.
