Chip Kelly can only guess how the Dallas Cowboys are going to attack the Eagles this Sunday without superstar receiver Dez Bryant, out with a broken foot.

It beats the alternative.

If the choice is playing the Cowboys with Bryant as opposed to preparing for their NFC East arch-rivals without him, Kelly would take “the latter.

“He’s really good,” Kelly said of Bryant, the media tent bursting into laughter. “So, put a little bit more on the coaches and a little bit less on covering Dez, I think we’d opt for that.”

The Cowboys have options without Bryant, who likely will be sidelined four to six weeks after undergoing surgery.

Tight end Jason Witten (6-6, 251), wide receivers Terrance Williams and Cole Beasley, along with tight end Gavin Esobar (6-6, 254) are at the disposal of quarterback Tony Romo.

In Kelly’s mind, Romo is the key.

“One of the best quarterbacks in the league running the show,” Kelly said. “What a dynamic football player Dez is but it’s not like there’s a huge discrepancy. The key to that offense is the quarterback.”
