Dallas Cowboys RB DeMarco Murray: ‘This year is going to be a great year for me’

On Sunday, Murray agreed with the NFLs reigning MVP. I think hes right on, Murray said after the Cowboys first walk-through practice of training camp. This year is going to be a great year for me, I feel. Ive come prepared, physically, mentally and emotionally. Im definitely ready. Im excited about this year and what were going to do. Murray, who became Oklahomas lead back after Peterson declared for the draft in 2007, will be entering his third NFL season with a significant change in the Cowboys running game. Murray will no longer have a fullback in front of him. Dallas released fullback Lawrence Vickers earlier this month, a move made to put a greater emphasis on two tight-end offensive sets. A little different, but its something that Im definitely looking forward to, Murray said. I love running out of different type of personnels: 11, 12, 13.

Dolphins and Cowboys Start Training Camp

However this is changing as the Miami Dolphins and Dallas Cowboys have started training camp. Even though the Dolphins and the Cowboys are the only teams to start training camp (until Wednesday as several teams start theirs on the 24th), it is still a big deal. The opening up of the first training camps signal Check My Reference the beloved pre-season football games are right around the corner, the first of which being the Hall of Fame Game less than two weeks away. A month after the Hall of Fame Game, on September the 5th, the regular season starts. Now dont get me wrong, I absolutely love football. I enjoy everything from simple positional drills to the games themselves, but the reason training camp is exciting for many is more simplistic. It is for the simple pleasure ofsharing the game that we love with the ones that we love. Most of the time during the summer the little free time that parents get when they arent working, is usually spent on chores around the house or shuttling kids around to games and play dates with friends. When training camps start things change. By the time most training camps kickoff in late July, many kids sports leagues are finishing their last few remaining games. It is likely designed this way so parents and kids can start getting ready for school- beginning for many in September. However, it still often leaves a gaping hole for kids to pass time.

Cowboys mailbag: The battle at linebacker

Romo spoke to reporters Sunday evening following the Cowboys first day of training camp, fielding questions as far-ranging as his health to his involvement in the teams play-calling. I feel good. Ive been throwing, Ive been running, Ive been doing all that stuff, Romo said. I was excited about getting out here honestly, just the smell of the grass and being out on the football field is a great feeling. You never want to take that for granted. Romo went through a full walkthrough and a two hour practice on Sunday in his first team activities since undergoing a micro procedure to remove a non-cancerous cyst in mid-April. The quarterback was present throughout the Cowboys offseason OTAs and minicamp, but was unable to participate until the start of training camp. You gain a great appreciation just watching and not being able to be out there with your teammates and go through the grind. So it was great today. It was a great start, he said. During the wait for training camp, Romo said he got the all-clear to begin throwing and working out about a month and a half ago. That includes running and throwing workouts, as well as the week-long mountain running excursion Romo took this summer, which team owner/general manager Jerry Jones alluded to last week. Sometimes I was a little too aggressive with the aspect of wanting to be aggressive to get back fast, he said.

Jay Ratliff

He missed last season when he tore his Achilles tendon in training camp. So we’ll see how he’ll perform this summer given another chance. DeVonte Holloman moved from safety to linebacker in college, so his progress at this position, linebacker, is continuing. Q: Hi Calvin, it sounds to me that the (Dallas) District Attorney is out of the plea bargain mood with Josh Brent and wants to throw the full force of the law at him. Are you getting the same feeling? Is this a result of Brent failing to stay clean while waiting on his trial or do you think the D.A. has had this same attitude from the beginning? Sounds like it might have made him mad that he was overruled by the judge when Brent failed (two drug tests), and now he is not wanting to deal with him at all? Rod T. (Tulsa, Okla.) A: Rod, I view website do believe Brent will do some prison time, but not as much as you think. There are countless of cases in which a person was charged with intoxication manslaughter and didn’t get any prison time.
