When Dallas Released Carter they took the heart of the team out of the players
Imagine for a second your a Cowboys Player from Last season , you felt good about the things you did last year, you liked the momentum you had going into this year.
You go into training camp one morning and you find out that the guy who lead you to the playoffs , your starting qb ,team captain and leader has just been cut .
Rumors abound.
After getting over the intial stages of Shock , You then realize that the starting qb is the NEW old guy your team just signed. Some guy you remember when you were 8 years old . You look at him at training camp and you say ...man is this guy going to lead us to the super bowl? Quickly the old qb gets the name GRANPA , many players make fun of his age . Its hard not to , this qb plays old , throws old and moves old . But your stuck , your Qb from last year who had the great throwing arm , the atheltic moves to get out of trouble and to pick up first downs with his legs when needed is gone .
Now you got some old guy , some NEW old guy calling the shots out there .
You have your doubts . nOW YOUR 2-2 , AND YOU cant help to think how things would be different if you still had Quincy .

I'm one of the few that doesn't think that this is much of an upgrade if at all, but prepare for the flames.

I think players dont care who the hell is QB, as long as we are scoring points. We didnt with Carter and we are not with Vinny.

How about a whole separate forum?
I'll bet that forum would probably be close to equaling this one with posts.

Which is what I think everybody's problem is.
We now have a veteran QB, who shouldn't be starting the game off with an "almost" INT. If this "bus" wasn't very good last year and we still got 10 wins from it, this "bus" seems alot slower.

If that former player was the heart, it spent a good deal of the second half of the season in arrythmia and went into cardiac arrest against Carolina. He's gone, it's done, get over it, move on.

As it was before Carter got released, the vast majority of those starting these threads are the Carter supporters. They start these threads to get a reaction from the other side.
