Not sure what to do with J Jones next year -- unless Dallas gets a major upgrade in the O-line and Barber ruptures something - I think he is second or third round material at best
Dallas really doesn't need a major upgrade as you say they just need all their key guys back from injuries. Flozell and Marco Rivera should be back in shape next season and then all we'd need is a RT and a little more depth... The O line hasn't protected Drew AT ALL today but remember those are backups playing, not our regular starters
The situation with JJ worries me a bit though. Barber has clearly looked superior today as JJ apparently hasn't been able to create any holes on his own. I think he is lacking some of that vision and quickness he showed last year.... I remember the seahawks game when he made a couple of guys miss in the backfield and then turned up and scored a long TD
Regarding the need of WRs someone talked about... I don't think its that much of a need. We got Glenn, who showed he can be the deep threat we need, two good possesion WR and TE in Keyshawn and Witten, and Crayton, who is very fast and showed vast improvement and potential... The problem with the O right now is the inconsistency in the running game and the injuries in the O line, two problems that are connected and can easily be resolved IMO
We had a good year, but inconsistency really hurt us. We paid the price against Washington the first time around, against the Seahawks and the stupid Bledsoe pick, against the Broncos and huge Ron Dayne, and against the giants the second time around... Of course we also got a few lucky breaks go our way (mainly philly

) so we can't complain
Hopefully Parcells comes back for next season because the Dallas Cowboys WILL be your super bowl champs
