DeMarcus Ware misses Cowboys practice but will play

DeMarcus Ware missed his second consecutive practice, but don't expect the Pro Bowl linebacker to be missing when the Dallas Cowboys play for the NFC East title Sunday night.

Brooks: The NFL's scariest offense

The NFL's scariest offense is ... the Dallas Cowboys. Bucky Brooks uses All-22 film to break down why the unit is so effective. **More ...**

"You ask me that every week," Ware said Thursday when questioned about his health, via ESPNDallas.com. "I'm good enough to play on Sunday. (I'm) doing treatment and getting ready."

Ware was forced to exit last Sunday's loss to the New Orleans Saints after re-aggravating the shoulder injury that has plagued him this season. He said Thursday he'll wear an elbow brace and shoulder harness against the Washington Redskins.

Ware really has no business playing right now, but he knows it's money time in Big D. He might not be close to 100 percent Sunday night, but even 50 percent of DeMarcus Ware is better than most guys at full strength.
