Pelluer may start against Miami
IRVING (AP) — The Dallas Cow
boys’ backup quaterback Steve Pel
luer, who hasn’t seen action since last
year, is expected to start when the
team faces the Miami Dolphins Sun
day night.
Cowboys Coach Tom Landry
Wednesday announced that starting
quarterback Danny White would rest
his sore right wrist and will not work
out until Friday, saying it’s a “possi
bility” that Pelluer will take over
Sunday.
Both quarterbacks said they were
told by coaches that White will be
saved for a possible playoff situation.
The team plans to use Pelluer in
the Miami game and the Minnesota
game on Thanksgiving as the Cow
boys play two games in four days,
observers said.
“Given the situation with the team
we’re playing and the short time be
tween games, I feel certain they will
start Steve,” White said.
“I have a very sore wrist and the
only way to solve that is to change
quarterbacks.”
If Pelluer starts, he said, “I don’t
think I’ll play unless I’m needed.”
White’s wrist was broken in a
game last season against the Giants.
He said doctors told him cartilage is
deteriorating in his wrist. Once the
cartilage is gone, it will have to be
fused, he said.
Coach Paul Hackett said of the
change, “It was a great decision by
Coach (Landry) in terms of the tim
ing.
“This is an ideal time for the team
to rise above, and it can’t just come
from Steve. It’s got to be Steve and
the psyche and Herschel (Walker)
and everthing,” Hackett said. “Plus,
it’s money in the bank for us because
Danny’s resting.”
Also considered in the timing for
starting a new quarterback is Miami’s
poor pass defense record. The Dol
phins have sacked the quarterback
only 12 times in nine games.
Pelluer was sacked 47 times when
he started eight games last season
while White recovered from his bro
ken wrist.
Dallas’ offensive line has not im
proved since last year, and White has
been sacked 35 times in seven starts.
White’s passing rating has fallen
to 69.6 and he has thrown 12 inter
ceptions, compared with six touch
down passes.
