Dallas Cowboys coach Wade Phillips is confident that running back Marion Barber will do his best to surpass a knee injury and play in Sunday's NFC divisional playoff game at Minnesota.
"He's been mad at me the last two years because I didn't let him play in the preseason game there," Phillips said, chuckling. "So I know he wants to play there just from that." Barber has never played in his home state as a professional, but his knee injury hold him many times in last weekend's wild-card victory over the Philadelphia Eagles and forced him to miss practice Wednesday. It's upset that can't see him wearing the dallas cowboys jersey on the field.
Barber was expected to practice Thursday.
