Thatās how baseball go. Itās always funny how the haters come out the minute thereās an easy punch to throw. Erod was like, hmmmmā¦take a showerā¦or get these easy likes.
Theyāre not. That GB blowout in the playoffs was way bigger. This game though, just another L. Early in the season to a gimmicky offense with a hackish qb. Just one loss. On to Baltimore.
The sky is NOT falling yāall. Clearly the Chiefs and the Cowboys are two VERY different teams with two VERY different QBs, but the went on a horrible losing streak last year and still won the Super Bowl. The point is, stop with the full season predictions off of ONE gameš«¤
We go into the playoffs saying weāre keeping our expectations low while secretly saying to ourselves āwhat if it finally is our yearā¦I mean look how consistent theyāve been since that horrible 2nd week!ā Then they lose. Yeah this sounds about right š„²
They wonāt be the Championship Boys unless that incompetent rascal Jerry Jones sells the franchise and lets a sensible owner run the ship! š¤£šš¤·āāļø
he's not it. And are we paying for it for four more years or is it 5 total? Was the new contract tacked on the end of his current contract? Wow, I posted a reply to a Ticket hosts tweet and got excoriated for expressing the same opinion there.
You have pat on a island. You have josh and lamar underneath. Bills can't beat kc. Lamar is not great in the playoffs. Besides those 3, everyone else is lumped in the same tier till the starters start getting bad like caleb, young, fields, watson etc. who exactly is that much better with the personnel and coaching staff we got? A competent qb is gonna be 50 a year going forward. If you are statistically in the top in the nfl expect 60 plus. Anybody cheap and getting results are qbs having a career year outta nowhere, or retreads on a prove it deal like mayfield or minshew.
Ill take this over watson, tua and lawrence any day of the week.
Not defending dak blindly, but he didn't play defense today. That was mike nolan bad.
I donāt understand the thought process of accepting the flaws of someone who is good but canāt win, rather than playing the market and hoping you find someone that can.
Mediocrity isnāt as bad as it seems, we already canāt win a playoff game, so what difference is it going 4-13 if that means we have a chance to find someone that can get us over the hump?
If you play and have a serviceable season, then lose postseason, what difference is that from losing in the season and not even having a postseason?
We all know Dak canāt make it happen, sure he might be a top 3rd QB, but unless youāre a top 5 team, or a top 5 QB youāre not gonna make a splash in the postseason, and unfortunately thatās not the Cowboys. Really disappointed we extended a guy, when we could have ripped the bandaid off and started the rebuild earlier.
Open market, a rookie, Tannehill on a budget play so we can pick up free agents for cheap to bulk up the roster. A bargain quarterback is something you can build on, a max contract mid quarterback is the worst thing you could do to your roster.
Iād put him in that rather large āKirk cousinsā tier where theyāre certainly not bad but heād have to be a lot better to be one of the really good ones.
Certainly not āhighest paid player in the leagueā territory. That was a bit of a stumble.
Youāre right, you canāt pay a guy the majority of your cap if heās not āthe guyā and Dak has never been it. When you can get a bargain guy and build up the rest of your roster with the savings from an overpaid QB you actually stand a chance against the elite QB teams.
Agreed. Canāt remember the last time one of these Jerry Jones blockbuster deals was a good idea. He won the news cycle last week and now the cowboys are stuck with that contract for a guy who clearly not top tier
The issue imo is who leads the rebuild. Talent isnt the issue. Teams that win have top 5 coaches or hall of fame level QB. The GM picks coach. I don't believe Jerry will ever hire a top 5 coach and get out of the way to let him do his job. Finding a hall of fame level QB is luck.
Thatās true. Jerry ultimately is responsible for the situation weāre in. Constantly overpaying on questionable contracts, holding out till the last moment. But if his goal is just media coverage heās been successful thus far.
Iād think even Jerry would have to see the writing on the wall with Dak or at least have the ability to look around the league and see the formula for success is nothing like what heās trying to do, or has been doing for near 2 decades.
Itās a really frustrating situation to be in for fans, which is part of the reason I care more about my fantasy team than Cowboys success, which is honestly a bit sad.
Since dumping them in say 2018, my life is so much better. The air feels cleaner, food tastes better, and goading the 50 year olds wearing Elliot jersey after the game is really, really satisfying.
To the uninformed obersever he might look like a stuck-up, rich asshole that's totally full of shit. Clearly it's just an act. No human being could really be such a cartoonishly evil ghoul. Just because it walks like a duck, quacks, and has a explosive, nine inch, corkscrew penis doesn't mean it's a duck ykwim?
I know the offense did amazingly with that 4d chess of move of not scoring TDs and going for field goals. The defense played poorly, but its not 100% their fault.
If you seen anything they have been always burned by the run the past couple years and Mike is an offensive minded coach. This defense is not good and gets bullied a lot unless they have a lead where they can rush
how dare Dak let the saints score 40+!!! what a trash quarterback!!!! what do you mean Dak canāt score on 6 straight drives like the Saints did with one reliable receiver!!!! what a bum!!!!!!!!!!!

Everyones argument (justifiable I will agree) is that who else is there. And if Dallas didn't pay him. Someone else happily would have.
But still. Jerry keeps tying this money to 4 5 guys hoping for the glory days of the 90s and that just isn't going to happen
