Playoffs Recap

It was an ugly finish to a very positive season and it will unfortunately be the last memory of the 2009-10 season. The Cowboys were crushed by the Minnesota Vikings 34-3 and what’s worse is that Adrian Peterson didn’t even run wild. The prolific Vikings back had just 63 yards on 26 carries, which means the Cowboys went through the entire year without allowing a 100-yard rusher, but the Cowboys could not stop the Vikings passing game.

NFL betting fans saw the Brett Favre-to-Sidney Rice combo rack up 141 yards and three touchdowns. Throw in a few Cowboys turnovers and you have your one-sided loss.

The Vikings did run up the score as they threw for a touchdown pass in the final two minutes of the game. That pushed the lead to 34-3 and players like Keith Brooking are already looking forward to the meeting with the Vikings next time.

Wade Phillips

The Dallas Cowboys offseason begun after their one-sided loss to the Minnesota Vikings last weekend and they have already made some key decisions.

Even though a number of people felt that maybe the Cowboys should think twice about it given how their season ended, owner Jerry Jones made the decision that head coach Wade Phillips will be returning to the team next year.

To this point, it is unclear whether Jones will pick up the option on Phillips contract or whether he’ll give him a legitimate extension.

When you look back, Phillips is technically the winningest coach in Cowboys history. He has also produced two NFC East titles in three years.

Roy Williams

If you were making your NFL picks, you probably wouldn’t think that Roy Williams would return next year as a member of the Dallas Cowboys and while no definitive decision has been made, the early signs are that he will be back with the team next year.

Williams is clearly a diva. He voices his displeasure regularly (to the media) when he’s not happy with the offense and when he’s not happy with his touches. Granted, he doesn’t go to the levels of Terrell Owens, but he does poke and prod to try and get what he wants.
