As if the Dallas Cowboys didn`t have enough to deal with in trying to make the postseason, they will now be without star running back Marion Barber. Barber has been ruled out of today`s game at Pittsburgh, with a dislocated toe he suffered in Dallas`s last game.

Barber has played in 55 consecutive games for Dallas, and this will certainly end his streak. Dallas really needed Barber for this game, with Pittsburgh having the number one ranked defense in the NFL this season.  But if you can`t run,  you can`t play,  bottom line.

NFL sack leader DeMarcus Ware, will be a game-time decision. He has a hyper-extended knee that he also suffered in Dallas`s last game. He has been sporting a protective knee brace all week while he has been at practice for the Cowboys.  Dallas will have their work cut-out for them without Barber and possibly Ware. Rookie Tashard Choice out of Georgia Tech, will start in place of Felix Jones who is lost for the season. Tony Romo must really work his magic for Dallas today! Hooking up with Terrell Owens and Jason Witten is a must, if the Cowboys are going to pull this off!
