Cheer up, Cowboys fans: The Alex Barron era may be over

Relief is coming for the beleaguered Cowboys offensive line.

ESPN’s Matt Mosley wrote Tuesday morning he’s getting “strong indications” starting guard Kyle Kosier and right tackle Marc Colombo will return to the lineup this week.

That means sports radio pinata Alex Barron will likely be holding a spot on the bench for a while. At least the Cowboys hope so. Colombo has a long history of injuries, and we hope the team doesn’t rush him back to the field because they are desperate. The team doesn’t appear likely to release Barron.

The Cowboys have been installed as 8.5 point favorites against the Bears. So they’ll probably have to score more than seven points this week to cover.
