Dallas Cowboys 2020 Offseason Thread -- 25th Anniversary of Mediocrity

[Vic Mackey 47953]

Here is what Gillmore said in text format on how easy it was for him to get a pick in that game last season. Example 99999999 of how predictable and terrible Garrett was

 

[Iceman 2978]

When knew that shit from watching the game. Then put it in a professional defense of backs hands to find tendencies…

 

lolz.  The Ginger, the football guy, will not be missed.

Fast forward to the 2 minute mark if you wanna see yet another example of how Garrett is an idiot.

That was also a horribly thrown ball by Dak. The weather was shitty, though.

[gernblansten 3259]

The weather didn't have anything to do with how horrible that ball was.  Bad snap?  Sure.  Argue it throws off Dak's timing?  Okay.  But, there was zero pressure with plenty of room to step into the throw, but for some reason he shifts his weight to his back foot and sidearms it weakly behind Cooper.  

[futureman 22698]

that’s a first down, maybe a touchdown, with romo behind center.  or any competent player at the position, really.  garrett wasn’t the problem. 

[Hate 20247]

I wouldn’t put Romo in that group. He probably would have thrown an interception or dropped the ball while winding up to throw. You’re right about a good QB would have thrown the ball where it needed to be though. That INT was on Dak. It had nothing to do with Gilmore being an elite QB.

[Pato del Muerto 53479]

Gilmore knocks a good ball down. He was in position due to game planning, tendencies, and simplicity from the Dallas offense. 

[youdunnf'dup 2147]

That was just a shit show of a game. Another example where our “#1 offense” couldn’t even make this game a sweat for the patriots. A day where our defense actually showed up for a change.

He won’t. If he doesn’t even take a minuscule step forward he’s more than worth that franchise tag.

Ezekiel Elliott sued over alleged dog attack

Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott is facing a lawsuit from a woman who says his three dogs attacked her while she was on his property to clean his pool.

The woman says Elliott’s three dogs all bit her on March 11, with a Rottweiler dragging her by her arm while two bulldogs bit her legs. She says she needed surgery for her arm injury and will likely be scarred for life, and she still has both physical and mental pain.

According to the lawsuit, Elliott’s dog previously bit another pool cleaner.

Elliott’s attorney, Frank Salzano, told TMZ.com, “Ezekiel was in no way negligent in connection with the alleged incident and intends to vigorously defend the lawsuit.”

Elliott is not the only Cowboy to face such allegations: Dak Prescott agreed last year to remove his dog from Frisco, Texas, city limits after the dog bit a woman, causing her to lose a finger.

also, the only reason dak’s agent had him sign the franchise tag was because it’s pretty obvious there isn’t going to be a football season this fall.  smartest thing that moron has ever done.

credit to Zeke and his team for forcing our hand last offseason because he might actually be the single dumbest player in the NFL from an IQ standpoint.

still can’t believe jerry caved in to that idiot.  that contract is just unbelievable.

Strictly for medicinal purposes, of course.

[Vic Mackey 47953]

Zeke has a word for you dorks who think this is some big deal. In fact, it would actually be better if he was "faded" off weed than alcohol as one is much more destructive than the other. Weed is now a non issue in the NFL so who gives a fuck?? Lmao

Dak Prescott has the NFC East’s number, and it’s not even close

If you want to win the NFC East, you’d better make sure you beat the other NFC East teams first. And Dak Prescott is doing just that.

Prescott is 7-1 against against the Washington Redskins in his four years in the league. The only loss came in the 2018 game in Washington, where a phantom false start penalty against longsnapper L.P. Ladouceur with three seconds remaining made a potential 47-yard game-tying kick a 52-yard attempt, resulting in kicker Brett Maher hitting the left upright as time expired.

The Giants are 2-6 against Prescott, and haven’t won a game against Prescott since 2016.

The Eagles’ record against Dak Prescott is similarly in Dallas’ favor: Dak Prescott has won five of the eight games he’s played against Philly. One of those losses came in the 2016 season finale, where Prescott played just 15 snaps before making way for Mark Sanchez and Tony Romo. Prescott left the game early in the second quarter, but as the starter, the eventual loss ended up on his record.

[Iceman 2978]

yet Dallas only won the NFC East twice in those 4 years.    

[Drew 2922]

Well you gotta do more than JUST beat the NFC East. That's only possible 6 wins a year.  It's a good start, but gotta beat other teams too.  Just like every other team does.  But that's why the Pats have had it easy over the last 20 years.  Easier to get to 10 wins when you're starting 5-1 every year.  

[C-Man 27779]

It is really, really hard to go 5-1 in your division in the NFL and still miss the playoffs. But the Cowboys did just that in 2019.

When you play in what is easily the best division in the nfc East and there has only been one other good team in the division every year, it’s honestly not that impressive at all. Last years team being the most glaring example. But hey, 5-1 against the nfc East, amirite?

So David Njoku is demanding a trade, and apparently we’re interested. I wonder what that would take. Former first round pick getting drafted to a terrible situation. Seems like a classic change of scenery gamble that we should take. When he does make plays, he flashes elite talent. It’s not consistent at all.

Issue is..... is there really going to be a season?  If they cancel it, does he not get his service time?  If they start and stop, then he's pricey for next year.  In a normal year, yea, go get him.

 

[futureman 22698]

look at that form, eyes downfield, like a greek god brought down from heaven to play quarterback for america’s team.  barrett .50 caliber rifle attached to his right shoulder.  he’ll always be the one that got away. 

[Drew 2922]

I'm assuming Futureman had nothing intelligent to say...probably just trolling, again.

But regardless...of COURSE the Cowboys are being brought up in another trade.  Feel like every report has the cowboys listed.

If mahomes can do a 10 year deal, Dak can stfu and do a 5 year deal. 

[Don Johnson 4847]

Mahomes deal guarantees that Dak will never - even if only on paper for a few months - be the "highest paid player in the NFL."

It most likely has an opt out and his situation is different as a first round pick, but you would have thought the two sides could have found common ground by now.  Mahomes gets 40 million per???  Going to be wild to see.

This contract on paper might be $50mm/.   It’s gonna be an enormous number

NFC East Standings for the decade of 2010-2019. Only one competent team to deal with the entire decade and we still couldn't get to one single NFC title game. Clap clap clap

Eagles: 87-73-0
Cowboys: 86-74-0
Giants: 70-90-0
Skins: 62-97-1

[Drew 2922]

Dammit Vic, that a bat signal to the Dak haters...it was all HIM, the ENTIRE time that prevented them from winning the east every year.

 

Also, if people can't see the difference between Mahomes, and what the chiefs are doing, and Dak and Dallas, I can't help you.  NO QB has signed a 5 year deal in recent memory, and you still won't see it.  Stupid for the players. 

Mahomes is a special case, and if they tied it to the cap, like most suspect...it makes perfect sense for them.

[Patrick Bateman 3966]

Have to see how structured but probably going to be worth 50m+ the last several years of the deal.

Our record for the decade is actually a lot better than I originally thought, compared to some teams. But i think that’s what made the Garrett era so frustrating. We have a better decade record than the 49ers, but we’ve seen them build a championship caliber team, tear it all the way down with new EVERYTHING (gm, HC, QB, etc), and build a new championship caliber team.

The Garrett era was much more frustrating than the era between Aikman and Romo. We expected to suck those years and stood no chance. This last decade we had some really good talent spread around. And not one single time did we make the NFC title game. I'm not even bitching about no Super Bowls. Just a fucking NFC title game appearance. But nope.
