Leaf to start against Atlanl

IRVING, Texas (AP) — Ryan Leaf
getting another chance as an NFL starter.
Dallas coach Dave Campo said Monday,
a day after Leaf made his first appearance
with the Cowboys, that Leaf would be the
starting quarterback next weekend at Atlanta.
“We feel Ryan will give us a little spark,
and he feels comfortable with the offense,”
Campo said. “This is definitely an evalua
tion process.”
Leaf was the No. 2 overall pick by San
Diego in 1998 and was 4-14 as a starter the
last three years. The Chargers cut him after
last season, and he did not make Tampa
Bay’s roster during training camp.
The Cowboys (2-5) signed Leaf on Oct.
12, and Sunday he will be their fourth dif
ferent starting quarterback this season. He
follows rookie Quincy Carter, Anthony
Wright and Clint Stoerner.
Carter and Wright are out with injuries.
Stoerner threw interceptions on four straight
drives, including two in the end zone, in the
second half of Sunday’s 27-24 overtime loss
at the New York Giants.
Campo confirmed the anticipated move
after team meetings Monday, when he had
an opportunity to speak to both quarterbacks.
Campo said the move was not based on
Stoerner’s performance Sunday, but rather
a desire to take a good look at Leaf. Carter,
who has played just five quarters, is
expected back from hamstring surgery in
early December.

“We want to get an evaluation of where
we are at quarterback,” Campo said. “If we
come out of this year not knowing what we
have, we’ve made a mistake.”
The Cowboys signed Leaf after Carter
tore his left hamstring at Oakland on Oct. 7.
Leaf had failed a physical because of a wrist
injury when Cowboys owner Jerry Jones

It was not that the Tech
defense was strong; it was just
that the Aggie offense made
critical mistakes when it
should have been making criti
cal plays.
Junior quarterback Mark
Farris threw an interception at
the goal line in the waning sec
onds of the first half that
would have put the Aggies up
7-3 at halftime.
Freshman wide receiver
Terrence Murphy coughed up
the football at the Tech 15-yard
line after converting on a
fourth-and-three. Convert either
of those attempts, and the
Aggies’ chances of winning the
game increase dramatically.
Now the Aggies have more
to worry about than will they
win a game the rest of the sea
son. The better question is,
will they score a point? If they
play they way they did

and Texas, two of the best
defenses in the Big 12, odds
are their point total heading

when they head to Shreveport.
Of course, if OU and Texas
do the same to A&M as what
Tech did, do not expect them to
behave the way Tech fans did.
Those two schools actually
