  1. It was a terrible call and should have given Dallas a new set of downs, but the bigger issue is it highlights Schotty's shitty game management in always being conservative and not understanding he was bringing his rubber knife to a gun fight. The end of the first half was another great example of this. I'm not always a "go for every 4th down" guy but sometimes you get in a game and it's obvious you need TDs and TOP and the risk is worth the return. Schotty is hardwired by his Dad and manages the game like it. Like he's still in the late 80's. Either he'll need to evolve this offseason, or we simply have another Jason Garrett on our hands. Pretty much. The back 7 is historically bad. The LB corp is historically bad. Williams is hoss, but he can only do so much. This defense is really like 6 players away from being good or good enough to be ship level. Their 3 top players are DT's. You'll have to convince Clark to bring down his cap number which probably means guaranteeing a later year on this contract. But beyond the 3 DT's, Overshown (who badly needs a better DC), and the rookie edge, the Cowboys don't have anything. Years of missing in the draft has come back to bite them. Maybe the rookie CB is something. Maybe Bland gets better with another offseason of health. Maybe we can keep Houston as a situational pass rusher, but that leaves the team needing 2 more LBs (at least), 2 CBs (at least), 2 more DEs (at least), and a couple of safeties. All of this is predicated on firing a terrible DC and getting a 4th DC in 4 years and changing schemes once again. Zimmer was a unbelievably stupid choice last year because of his age and ambitions. He can be better than CeeDee but that's like top 5-6 in the league when Lamb is healthy playing well. It's been shown that Jerrah without backing ass into a good QB to lead the franchise is lost at sea. What you posit here is for the Cowboys to pretty much be a bottom 10 team for a half dozen years. We've seen it before. The only reset which will matter is Jerrah dies and Stephen either surprises us and just does finances or he does shortly after and the family decides to sell. Otherwise, it's very difficult to want a hard reset because the Cowboys are so bad at so many things.... drafting included. I do think maybe letting Dak go so he can win elsewhere may be the biggest solid they could do for him. The good news on Pickens is he just brought down his contract value by like 3-5m a year this week if you do want to bring him back.
  2. Step away from the computer..... WTF. Guys, time to open your safe rooms or bunkers. Something is going down. Kerm, I know CP3 was okay for the Spurs, but remember how much you loathe him? Who? in..... who the fuck cares what some rando thinks. Latest Spurs rumors. This tracks...... Miami may be the choice for ole Giannis. The West may be more than he can bare....
  3. He's the worst OL we have and a below average OT and certainly starter. Press has tried to protect him because he's a good local story, but ultimately you are what you are. At the most basic level, the defense is still bad. Yes, they're not historically shitty..... just an every year bottom 5 squad and the secondary may be historically shitty. They gave up 44 points and 7.2 yard per play. That's like trying to be bad. Bland is terrible and being paid like a top 15 CB. Our safeties have been shitty in pass coverage for years now. Our LBs are probably the worst bunch in the league. A lot of work to do for this team to rise to a level where they can be anything but mediocre. And...... we need a starting OT too.
  4. Defense looking like butta..... against a banged up Offense.
  5. All QBs tend to stat pad against bad teams..... at least the good ones who are good enough to do so. But if you want to get technical, Dak had the best QB day vs the Raiders all season. That includes games against Maye, Herbert, Mahomes, and Nix. So, let's not get too carried away with not getting too carried away.
  6. Petey gave nepo baby lil Schotty his big break. He's not going to embarrass him.
  7. They could have, but they didn't look like they understood it...... Just has to go 10 yards. But when Pickens waived for fair catch, then they have to allow Dallas to field it..... so in that instance, no.
  8. The rookie has a good future. He's not Micah but his upside could be DLaw.
  9. Run, run, passive..... enough? Turpin is not a WR..... Stop trying to make him one!
  10. Defense is better..... but they still suck on the back end. Back 7 still can't cover.
  11. Is he getting a full scholarship? Interesting signing.
  12. Good gutsy win after a couple of losses because this was not the beautiful game. Ugly basketball with a ton of turnovers but a nice home win over a good playoff team. Wemby doing his thing. Castle with 14 and 13. Despite all the turnovers, we shot well. 40% from 3. Over 90% from the line. GSG!
  13. It was illegal contact by the defense and then Pickens stopped working..... He probably could have thrown it away but down 17, you don't like to give away downs. This embarrassment on national TV is hilarious...... Jerry gonna take it in the ass here soon by the media.
  14. That was a total tire fire. CeeDee was jogging around not even looking for the ball. I think Dak expected him to sit in the empty space in the zone and Lamb just with his head in the clouds..... Doesn't matter. This game was overin the 2nd quarter.
  15. He needs to be fired tonight..... And I'm dead serious. You have a winnable game next week and then a BYE. He's fucking terrible.
  16. Turpin is not a fucking WR!!!!!!! He's not a fucking WR!!!!
  17. Agreed. Really valuable depth piece. Could be a mid-grade reg starter..... But he's a dude.
  18. Jayden...... meet the bench. You will be on the bench until you can learn not to put it on the grass.....
  19. Turpin may have just killed our drive..... He's not healthy. They need to sit him. If he couldn't get upfield on that play, he's worthless..... If he just gets what's blocked then its' 3rd and 6.
  20. It's pretty hilarious..... Denver is running the ball at almost 9 yards a pop. Their receivers are running open by yards and yet, they have a couple of unforced errors which is why they don't have 40 already. Sutton just dropped that one on 3rd and 14, they get almost 30 with ease, he's just drops it. Same with the first int. That was just a badly thrown ball, the guy was open. This defense is epically terrible and if you can just accept this is 6-7 win team, because the offense is the best we've had (arguably) in 30 years, then it is quite hilarious to watch. It's like the Varsity playing the freshman team when our defense is in.
  21. Terrible..... Dak. It gets way too greedy when they get down big. I get you want to make a play..... but it's just a terrible decision. Just get the 3 points.
  22. There's nothing good when Jerrah is is charge. It's a terrible place to be. Even when he gets it right, his miss rate is so much higher, just not much you can do......
  23. Elam is so fucking bad!!!! He sees the WR screen. Diagnoses it..... but freezes and then can't react and then helps with the tackle 7-8 yards down the field. He's just awful..... Tarzan, man.
  24. Man.... Kneeland started well his rookie year and just gotten worse. He didn't set the edge yet again and run defense was supposed to be his plus skill. They probably just need to cut him in the offseason or maybe they just have a really bad DL coach and D Coordinator and it's hard to really judge anyone under their tutelage??? Could be....
  25. They did try and got no yards. But I do think you probably run it again or if you're going to pass, be prepared to go for it down 10. I know field position was bad, but your defense can't stop a tonka truck.
