  1. Guess Bland doesn't need to tackle with his new contract.
  2. Elam sucks so bad...... How many trash recycle jobs is Dallas going to fail at?
  3. LOL..... Vegas ad because tourism is getting crushed because of the impending recession. Vegas is geting destroyed.
  4. Meh. The drive went off the rails because of CeeDee's drop on first down. A little late on 2nd and 3rd was just a jump ball.
  5. I think that's part of the point..... Would you rather have an elite talent or a good one who does something less valued players can do. Clark's a nice player, he really is..... but with what's up the middle, from IDL to LB to safety, this is a bad defense and the one thing they were elite at? Now, just mediocre.
  6. LOL!!!!! Eberfleus was supposed to scheme a pass rush. He sucks. Overrated as fuck.
  7. Cowboys pass rush is non-existent and they can't get off blocks. Should have spied.
  8. Get fucking Tolbert out of there. He fucking sucks!!!
  9. Hey guys, don't worry..... we traded Micah to stop the run. We're better because we can stop the run!!!! We just gave up 7 rushes for 37 yards and TD. So now we can't rush the passer or stop the run????
  10. Great start. Fuck Jalen Carter. I went from barely any emotion with this game to wanting Philly to burn..... Low class, dirty fucks!!!
  11. Some interesting inactives tonight. Blue is a healthy scratch. Going with Williams and Sanders tandem. Just like last year, going with some veteran castoffs. LOL!!!!! What a bust of pick. And this is what you get from the Cowboys when they pick in the 20's more times than not under this administration. Yuck.
  12. Guys, you aren't going to believe this but Kawhi's got himself in some shit again..... And he can't blame it on his Uncle this time since I think he's cut him off. Really this is a Steve Ballmer thing and we all know, owners don't do shit to other owners. He'll pay a small fine, give up a draft pick and then be welcome back to act like a total asshole at his new arena, BUT this is damn funny because it's so on brand for Kawhi. Good listen.
  13. This..... alway..... this. All hate should be directed at Jerrah and the Jones' family. LOL! I heard he asked Sam Williams to negotiate it for him. Agreed. Winning hasn't even come to be the focus for this franchise. When you define yourself by net worth or most valuable or whatever monetary accomplishment you seek to accomplish, then this becomes the culture of the organization. With other places, it's about winning. With the Dallas Cowboys, it's about money or monetary worth. That's it. Jerrah has more money then he could hope to spend and more money then 5 generations of his family could hope to spend, but they still want more? Why? Because it's what they equate to success. Monetary accomplishments, not on the field. Folks shouldn't forget this. No organization with a "GM" who has failed constantly and spectacularly for 30 years and kept him employed can really argue they're about winning. Sucks for fans, but the Jones' focus isn't about winning. If that helps the cause, then all the better, but it's not their goal.
  14. I just wanted to come back to this, because it's yet another thing the Cowboys media floats out there at the behest of the Jones'. Yes, the NFL comes out with the initial positional indications, but the club can correct them, especially up. Again, the Cowboys didn't do it because Jerrah felt is was leverage, and is an old, bitter, petty egotist. Just wanted to clear this up because I'm sure you heard correct from whatever source, but it was put out there by the front office.
  15. An amazing character actor who could do it all..... drama, comedy, thriller, etc. Love him in his small role in Maverick where he pokes a little fun at his immortalized role of Kicking Bird in Dances with Wolves. So funny in all the scenes. Here's one. We lost a great one. RIP.
  16. So here is Bland's contract. It's not as bad as previous thought because it's backloaded with money he probably never sees. It was also marginally misreported initially. Basically, this works out to be about 17-18m (if they don't touch it) guaranteed for 3 years. 18m is what I thought would be a good takedown for Bland and 16m AAV would be good for the Cowboys. It's not as bad as 23m AAV although they only get him for 3 years. If he plays out of his mind, they could just ride on the 4th year at 26.5, but he'd have to be so good, it would just be control to work out another contract. I think, while a bit risky with the guarantees for a guy coming off injury, it's not nearly the overpay as first reported. I can get down with this one.
  17. 100% this. He was sped up for no reason because he got solid protection most downs. But he sub-consciously sped himself up which led to him not turning his shoulders or feet towards the target. It's almost like he was trying to show he could make all these Matthew Stafford type of arm angle throws without his feet underneath him. It was very strange because the mistakes he was making in technique are extremely foundational and simple. It's stuff that he's been taught 1000 times, but it's what happens when you're confused, processing slowly and the clock in your head is so sped up, you cheat on your mechanics and make bad and inaccurate passes. He just needs to chill a bit.... slow himself down and process quicker.
  18. And..... this is on brand. I like Bland, I do, but his interception streak was fluky as fuck and last year when put in position to be the CB1, he failed miserably. Now, you've give him almost 100m and 24m AAV. But 44m for Micah was too much? Again, this isn't about economic responsibility, it's about Jerrah's feelings. Daron is a good soldier so he gets overpaid.
  19. Yes, that and the down before it were simply really bad throws. He didn't get his feet under him and make a good throw. Can't run from those throws. Have to get his feet underneath them. He was extremely inconsistent, no doubt and he will get better with reps.
  20. May have to bring in some different thought leaders. Self-evaluation. Re-adjust his tendencies? Again, we ran the ball well but things have to get better in the RZ. It's unacceptable.
  21. Ehhh.... He was pretty good, but I don't think they were elite schematically and he didn't recruit any of that secondary. 1 turnover Gave up 336 total yards 170 yards given up rushing with 4.5 YPC Texas was in the RZ 4 times. This wasn't some dominating performance. Texas really did a poor job in the RZ..... again. This is becoming a hallmark of Sark and he needs to solve it quickly. Gotta score TDs in the RZ, even against top 10 teams.
  22. Again, I agree, I want to play these games, but I would advocate from a scheduling perspective to work out some kinks with a patsy the first week. Play SJSU and then OSU. It's all good and I'm hopeful Arch will learn from this and get much better.
  23. I think he means in general. Michigan last year? 2nd game of the season. Bama in 23'? 2nd game of the season. There's reasons to resist going on the road opening weekend. Still, the game, while pretty ugly, was good for college football. Hope it's good for this year's team.
  24. Agreed. Rough game for Arch. His inaccuracy is extremely concerning. His slow processing is sort of expected considering his first big game on the road against an elite defense, but the game was there to win. It could have been taken, but ultimately Arch wasn't good enough and frankly, neither was Sark. His game plan sucked and schematically he played so conservatively, it was strange. Arch will get better, he has 3 chumps to get better on and then a daunting road game at the Swamp. He will get and be better but this wasn't the start any of us, including him, hoped for.
