  Whether you're at the end of your rope or merely the end of your week, welcome to Whitt's End: *I got $1 for the first person who can show me - like Tony Romo did last week - any time that Terrell Owens has ever uttered the phrase: "This one's on me." Owens has every right to be jealous of Romo and Jason Witten because they're both something he's not: Humble. And likeable. *Since 2006 no NFL combo has produced more touchdowns than Owens-from-Romo. They have 33, well ahead of Plaxico Burres-f

  A week into the healing process, how are your wounds? Mine are as raw and nasty as today's weather. Had lots of Cowboys-related thoughts while examining Dallas' autopsy and consuming Wild Card Weekend. Like: *Special teams coach Bruce Read was fired. Better late than never, I guess. *Jason Garrett and Ray Sherman are attracting interest from other NFL teams. Any other 9-7 teams with 0 playoff wins in a dozen years spawn such affection? Seems the league also drinks Dallas' Kool-Aid. *Rememb

• Jason Garrett: Red Jesus or Red-headed Stepchild?

  As you'll read in this week's dead-tree version of The Sportatorium, hitting newstands tomorrow, I think Wade Phillips should be fired. Immediately. No, actually, I think Jerry Jones should've walked down to the sideline in the third quarter of the Philadelphia debacle after Tony Romo unceremoniously stripped Phillips of his credibility/authority and yanked the coach right off The Gong Show. Offensive coordinator Jason Garrett? That's a different story. No doubt the Cowboys' offense - record-se

• T.O. Must Go?

  ESPN's Ed Werder says today that your Dallas Cowboys are seriously considering releasing Terrell Owens. Dallas' Only Daily's Jean-Jacques Taylor says if T.O. goes, then Jason Garrett stays. Me? I say that the whole fiasco could be fixed by getting rid of Wade Phillips and hiring a real leader. But what do you say: Can the Cowboys win with Garrett, T.O. and Hank Hill, er, Phillips, all returning next season? The arguments:

• Cowboys' Camp Questions?

  Home Sweet Dome.​A year ago at this time I was pegging the Dallas Cowboys for the "Super Bowl." Last time we saw them however - 44-6 losers in Philly on Dec. 28 - it was "or bust." Coming off 2008's 9-7 disaster, the Cowboys have shedded from their roster the leading receiver (Terrell Owens), second-best pass rusher (Greg Ellis), two best special-teams players (Keith Davis and Kevin Burnett) and the second-leading tackler (Zach Thomas). When the Cowboys open training camp in p

• Dallas Cowboys' Training Camp: Success Over Circus

  ​No Terrell Owens. No Pacman Jones. No Michael Vick or Brett Favre or Michael Crabtree. No drama. To which I say ... Yes! Last summer the Dallas Cowboys broke camp fat 'n happy and consumed with personal agendas. After a successful training camp at San Antonio's Alamodome in which the focus was football over fireworks and even included a blessing by a Catholic priest (in light of Magic Johnson's pep talk failing last year in Oxnard), it's safe to say the 2009 version is leaner '

But, alas, in the spirit of persistence, stubborness and doubling down, we're back at it again in 2009. I owe it to you and myself (and my bookie) to be bigger, bolder and, yes, better than a putrid 7-10 this season. Let's kick-off the year with an aggressive play on a conservative game.

  ​10. Fox's Pam Oliver stinks. While she was busy reading some shallow, pre-orchestrated featurette, we went three series before learning that Gerald Sensabaugh was out with a bum thumb. And though Marion Barber played just one snap in the second half, we never received an update. 9. Not only is Kyle Orton not a good quarterback, he looks like Foo Fighters' lead singer Dave Grohl. 8. Think pink. I get it. Breast cancer is horrible and awareness is necessary. But with helmet stickers a

• Dallas Cowboys: Witten's Whereabouts?

  ​Jason Witten will never say it, so I'll do it for him: Gimme the damn ball! Especially in the red zone!! I generally support Dallas Cowboys' offensive coordinator Jason Garrett, but this is getting ridiculous. When the red-head calls plays in the red zone it makes Cowboys' fans red-faced. Why? Because the Cowboys have scored only two touchdowns in their last nine trips inside the opponents' 20-yard line. And (hat tip to the Dallas' Only Daily's David Moore) in the last three games,

  Now he's got the grabs to supplement the groupies.​Turns out Miles Austin is Mr. Fix It. Who knew? Wade Phillips' job insecurity. Jason Garrett's credibility. The Terrell Owens supporters. Tony Romo's playmaking. Don't look now, but the undrafted receiver from Monmouth took care of all those and more the last two weeks of the Dallas Cowboys' season. And he's done it with a single Super Power: "Speed," owner Jerry Jones said of Austin before Sunday's 37-21 win over the Atlanta Falcons. W

• Wowboys 20, Beagles 16: My Top 10 Observations

  Even Philly fans liked Dallas last night.​10. Lots of heroes Sunday night in Philly, but the biggest - smallest - play was made by rookie linebacker Victor Butler. With the Eagles down 7 and facing third-and-10 from Dallas' 33, Donovan McNabb scrambled right into what seemed to be an open field for a good 10 to 20 yards. Butler, however, dove and clipped McNabb's right toe, sending him sprawling for a 1-yard sack. The Eagles settled for a field goal and never ran another offensive

• Rush to Judgment: Do your Dallas Cowboys Pass Too Much?

  ​Wade Phillips wants more balance. Jason Witten wants to get back to the "brand." Felix Jones and Tahsard Choice want more touches. You, the Dallas Cowboys fan, just want to win. I think Tony Romo is an elite quarterback and in the NFL you control the clock on the ground and you put points on the board through the air. I get that. But it's becoming apparent that offensive coordinator Jason Garrett makes me pass-happy sad. In last Sunday's loss in Green Bay, the Cowboys handed th

• Wowboys 7, Deadskins 6: My Top 10 Observations

  Back atcha, punk.​10. Fine, I'll say it: Offensive coordinator Jason Garrett is too quick to abandon the pass. I'll say it, of course, with tongue firmly planted in cheek. After only 11 handoffs to running backs in Green Bay, Dallas was committed to the running game today. The good: 33 rushes for 153 yards. The bad: No points until the final drive of the game. 9. On a scale of 1-10, I'm worried a 3 about Tony Romo's hip pointer/tweaked back. He was wincing. His passes were high. Bu
