IRVING, Texas (AP) -Imagine how many yards the Dallas Cowboys would be running for if they could keep their running backs healthy. Even with starter Marion Barber missing the last game because of an injury and backup Felix Jones leaving two games with injuries, Dallas has averaged a whopping 193.7 yards rushing per game, 23 yards better than any other NFL team. OK, three weeks into the season, league-leading totals are pretty worthless. But here's a pretty significant statistic: The Cowboys have run fo |

Iowa State and Kansas State? They are simply meeting in the middle to play their Big 12 opener at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo. As nearly half of the Big 12 takes the week off, much of the focus will be on the two games being played at neutral sites and what kind of splash they make. The conference h |

IRVING, Texas (AP) -They were solid against the pass, weak against the run in the opener. Then the roles were reversed in the second game. So Game 3 was a biggie for the Dallas Cowboys defense. Would they manage to stop both - or neither? To the delight of Wade Phillips, their head coach and defensive coordinator, it was a very definitive both, especially in the second half of a 21-7 victory over the Carolina Panthers. The Cowboys kept Jake Delhomme and the Panthers without a first down their first f |

Atlanta gets no breaks after the off week, as it visits the San Francisco 49ers before an even tougher three-game run versus the Chicago Bears, Dallas Cowboys and New Orleans, with the last two games on the road. In addition to getting their offense back on track, the Falcons will need to address a run defense that allowed the pass-happy Patriots to carry the ball 39 times for 168 yards. "That was definit |
