IRVING, Texas -- The trash talking has started between the Dallas Cowboys and the Philadelphia Eagles in anticipation of their Thanksgiving Day clash at AT&T Stadium. On Monday, Eagles defensive tackle Bennie Logan didn't seemed impressed with the Cowboys' offensive line. "They’re OK," Logan told CSNPhilly. "Yeah, they’re OK. I don’t really know what’s great about them." The Cowboys have the NFL's leading rusher in DeMarco Murray and an offensive line with three first-round draft picks, including Pro Bowl left tackle Tyron Smith. Starting left guard Zack Martin, the Cowboys' 2014 first-round selection, is getting consideration for the offensive rookie of the year award. "The running back’s having a good year running, but I don’t see anything spectacular about them," Logan said. "Same offensive line we faced last year and they have one new guy. We faced them [before]. They’re OK linemen." Cowboys center Travis Frederick, like Martin and Smith, a first-round pick, didn't take the bait. "I'm not really a big bulletin-board guy," Frederick said after Tuesday's practice at Valley Ranch. "For me, if you can't get motivated to play a game, this is your job, this is what I do, this is what I love. I'm motivated to play every game. People say things sometimes to the media and sometimes the media spins it a little bit. It is what it is." Frederick was made aware of Logan's comments by fans on Twitter and Murray didn't know what was said until a reporter told him about it. "Let's find out Thursday," Murray said with a smirk.
