Dallas Cowboys 2022 Regular Season Thread: Fuck Jerry Jones

[Texzilla58 4742]

They need to fix the playoff seeding , a sub 500 team hosting a playoff game is stupid

I don’t get why they don’t make a minor change. A division with a losing record winner forfeits it’s position and should get reseeded in favor of teams with winning records.

Nah keep the seeding system the same for matchup purposes, but add that better record hosts regardless of seeding. Should mostly affect the wildcard round, but could go deeper on occasion- and would incentivize teams to keep trying to win even after seeds are set.

So now Jerry is saying to stand by for a OBJ decision? Lol

[DougO 5256]

The NFL screwed it up when they went to 8 divisions instead of 6. But That's what they want. They don't care about the integrity of the game any more. They want the most teams to have hope of getting into playoffs so fans of shitty teams will keep watching and buying $50 t-shirts.

Except the Cowboys, whom the Bucs physically can’t catch unless they win out and we lose out.

The man can't say he's not interested in OBJ. He won't throw him under the bus. He loves to keep the leering press stirred up. I'll believe it when I see OBJ in a uniform throwing a block for Pollard.

Similar stats but why would you throw in a 1st round pick? Wait, Jerry, is this you?

I like the current line up. One bye. 3 WCs to line up with the other Div winners. What does a playoff structure or an odd ball 6 divisions for 32 teams have to do with integrity. Parity is good for the fans, the leagues, the money train. Same with the SEC with how competitive it is. In a 17 game season it’s good that teams can win late and win.

I thought we’d get the pick back. I misread the tweet.

A fancy way of saying “it’s the run game that really matters in Dallas” or “when we are up, we run the ball a lot to kill the clock”.

 

either one is accurate.

Even fancier way to say "Zeke gets more carries when we're up in the 4th".

Zeke getting carries doesn't lead to wins. Games with leads late lead to Zeke getting more carries. 

Still surprised it's 17-0. This team has been very good at not blowing leads late to lose.

So if Dallas wins tomorrow we clinch playoff berth right?

Yes.
They can get in also even if we lose with a few games going our way. But go out and win and clinch yourself.

Forget the run game! Forget the play action! We gotta pass! It's our only hope, up by ten!

We was ballin first half. Pounding the rock 

[Make em eat Taco Bell 1549]

trying to envision a playoff scenario where Dallas can wiggle to the top. 

1. Eagles 2. Vikings 3. Niners 4. Brady Bunch .  Those are the division winners right now. 

5. Dallas 6. anyone

Round 1 would be

3. Niners vs. 6. Anyone

4. Brady Bunch at home vs. 5. Dallas

Is that correct? 

Round 2 would be 

Niners @ Vikings  (if SF wins wc)

Dallas @ Eagles

Is that correct?

7 teams make the playoffs.  The 1 seed gets a bye the other 3 division winners play at home against wild cards 5-7.

[Loch Ness Monster 3533]

Wonder if LVE is out for the year as well now.

Was crazy how bad Kelvin Joseph was, will probably be out of the NFL before long. Huge drop off after Lewis and Brown went down for the year. Defense has fallen off a cliff.

2 best scenarios if Cowboys win would be Vikings getting 2nd seed and the 6 or 7 seed winning or the improbable happens and the 6 and 7 seed both win and Cowboys host the 6 seed. 

[Surly Bevo 25122]

More likely is Dallas dropping 2 of last three and somehow ending up getting dick punched by the 49ers in the first round.

But Olsen said during the game that Dallas had been really lucky with injuries this season.  How can this be?

How can Greg Olsen be clueless about a team he's called multiple games this season? I don't know, is he a dumbass?

This team isn't doing shit in the playoffs.  It'll be one and done, as usual.

Since they are officially in, i would rest all important players until the playoffs.

That's a 100 percent certified guaranteed way to lose the wild card game.

Parsons could probably use some rest, he looks worn down compared to early in the season.

[TornACL 7722]

I didn't watch the replay, but when Kelvin Joseph bit on the double move, the saddest part was that he reacted so late that he wouldn't have even been there even had the pass been short. Just terrible all the way around.

[Loch Ness Monster 3533]

Probably my fault for watching but didn't see any national talk shows talk about the piss poor play from Joseph. Just nothing but Trevor Lawrence looks amazing, Dak is terrible, and Hurts is the MVP. Storylines sell I suppose.

[Hate 20130]

Scoring 7 points in the second half of that game is inexcusable.  The lack of any kind of adjustments tells you everything you need to know about this coaching staff. 

[Pam Cummings 9654]

Good thing they scored 13 then.

[Hermanator 7129]

LVE right shoulder stinger. Not a neck injury. Should be back before playoffs.

Yeah, my bad.  I thought that they were up 27-10 at half.  Choking away a 17 point lead that far into the second half makes it even worse.  Oh well, Cowboys fans should be used to this.  I hope this first round loss is enough to finally kill JJ.

I was hoping that by now we'd have a picture of Chris Beard with the Cowboys logo on it, next to a picture of the former fiancee with the words "the lead" over her.

[Loch Ness Monster 3533]

34 points should be enough.

Jalen Hurts may sit in the Christmas Eve game based on reports. Minchew is the backup.

The Hurts MVP thing kinda reminds me of the year Carson Wentz was gonna win MVP before he got injured with a loaded Eagles roster. Then Nick Foles goes on to win the Super Bowl. Now I think Hurts is better than Wentz but good grief. He has the best offensive line in football calm down a little.

That's exactly what i think too. You don't even have to go back very far or even change the teams to see the obvious example either.

 

Patrick Mahomes is the best player in football, but the Eagles would take Burrow, Allen, and Herbert over Hurts all day long as well.

Super Bowls 1 - 30: Dallas has 8 appearances. 26.7% of these Super Bowls.  

Super Bowls 31 - 57: Dallas has 0 appearances. 0% of these Super Bowls.

Are enough old people passing on their following of the Cowboys for them to stay relevant when they’ve all keeled over?

When the Cowboys were in the playoffs literally every year, I get the widespread popularity. How does this clowncar manage to stay relevant when they’ve been in as many Super Bowls as the Lions, Browns, and Jets this century?
