 Dallas Cowboy coach Wade Philips said today, that backup Brad Johnson would start his third straight game Sunday, when they take on the division leading N.Y. Giants in New York this Sunday.  Johnson who was booed at home Sunday in a 13-9 win, has shown signs of why he is a backup. His quarterback rating is now 60.3 compared to starter Tony Romo`s 103.5, which is second best in NFL Football this year.

 

Brooks Bollinger also took some snaps with the first team, and he may see some action Sunday, if Johnson continues to struggle with the offense. Terrell Owens said that “we are going to go with whomever is back there”.  Whoever is under center may not have star tight end Jason Witten to throw to Sunday, as he watched practice Wednesday in a sweatshirt and shorts. His ribs are still bothering him pretty bad for him not to be out there. If he can not go, then rookie Martellus Bennett will play in place of him coach Wade Phililps said.
