And this is a team that lost wide receiver Ernie Mills to a season-ending abdomen injury and played the second half last week without Michael Irvin. We've just got to work harder and concentrate a little better and execute. Its not one particular thing. It's a breakdown here or there at different positions. That stalls drives.
Injuries are a factor.
Offensively, tight end David LaFleur suffered a sprained knee in the loss to New Orleans. LaFleur, a key blocker and receiving threat, is doubtful for Sunday's game, but should return for the regular-season finale. Defensively, the Cowboys have started inexperienced cornerbacks in recent weeks. As a result, strong safety Darren Woodson has been used less to support the run. This week's opponent, Philadelphia, is 30th in total offense but ranked 14th on the ground behind Duce Staley's 901 yards rushing.
