Exploring their options

Look for the Cowboys to use more two-tight end, one-back formations in 2005 because Dan Campbell, one of the league's best blocking tight ends, will return from a foot injury that sidelined him for the final 13 games of '04. Julius Jones proved he could be a dominant back last season, and the team wants to take advantage of his ability and also use much more play-action. Most teams probably will commit an eighth defender to stop Jones, which should create one-on-one opportunities for WR Terry Glenn deep or TE Jason Witten down the seam.
