The $85 million quarter back is woozy from his third con cussion in 10 games. The only thing worse than the offensive line that allowed five sacks in the season opener is the defensive line that gave up a fran chise-worst 306 yards in rushing. Now they are going on the road, where they have lost eight straight. Just one game into the season, the Dallas Cowboys and new coach Dave Campo are facing many more problems than an 0-1 start. Dallas plays Arizona on Sunday without receiver Joey Galloway or quarterback Troy Aikman. The Cowboys are stuck with most of the other players who looked complete ly lost in a41 -14 loss to Philadelphia. “We’re not what we were four, five years ago,” said running back Emmitt Smith. “You don’t have Pro Bowlers at every locker today.” Cowboys owner Jerry Jones tried patching over rough spots by shak ing up the coaching staff for this sea son, returning Dallas to an offense better suited for Aikman Lind trading chunks of the future to make Gal loway a featured attraction. Four quarters into the season, the plan has sprung a major leak. Galloway’s spot is going to James McKnight, a backup for five years in Seattle who missed last season with a knee injury. The new No. 1 receiver is real ly Raghib Ismail, who has always done better as a No. 2. Look at his numbers last sea son. In three games with Michael Irvin as the primary target, Ismail had two 100-yard games. He had just one in the 12 games after Irvin’s injury forced him to be Aik- man’s top option. The new quarterback is Randall Cunningham, an All-Pro two years ago who was benched by the Vikings after six games last season. In hindsight, they blundered by having Galloway in the game through the final minutes. He was hurt on the Cowboys’ third-to- last snap. If the sky-falling-quickly sce nario seems familiar, it is because a similar version played out last season in San Francisco. Years of poor drafting, risky salary cap management and devo tion to veterans past their prime caught up to the 49ers in 1999.

Call 1 WEIGHT LOSS Texas A&M freshman tennis player Ires Davis advanced to the semifinals in the juniors por tion of the U.S. Open Thursday. Davis is the United States’ No. 1 ranked junior doubles play er and the No. 2 ranked singles player. Along with partner Robby Gineprei of Marietta, Ga., Davis advanced through the quarterfi nals by defeating the No. 2 seed Todor Enev of Bulgaria and Joachim Johansson of Sweden, 3-6, 6-2 and 6-4. “What an honor it is for Tres to be representing his country and Texas A&M in the semifinals of the U.S. Open doubles,” said A&M coach Tim Cass. "The experience he is gaining this week is going to be a plus for our team, and the exposure that Texas A&M is receiving is excep tional." Earlier in the week, Davis lost to Brian Baker of the United States 2-6, 6-3, 6-4. Davis, a freshman from Austin, is playing in his fourth grand slam event of the year after seeing action in the juniors portions of the Australian Open, French Open and Wimbledon. Running Backs Continued from Page IB most likely be the one running the ball and burning the clock. Ja’Mar Toombs The Notre Dame defense was ready for Ja’Mar Toombs and limited him to just 1.3 yards per carry. But Toombs is bigger than ever this year, in size, and will be A&M’s weapon against defen sive lines, opening the ground game even more for Whitaker and Weber.
