Gerald sensabaugh ?? - Page 3 - Dallas Cowboys Forum

He needs to go, he has not made any plays that I can remember in his time here.

Chappy · 01-01-2013

Can't believe this guy got a contract extension as well.

He is nothing more than a witches hat out there on D.

Blue Eyed Devil · 01-01-2013

Sensabaugh sucks and he's our best safety. He'll be back.

It's funny several weeks back I said same thing about Sensabaugh and everyone bit my head off. He's a below average safety who doesn't excel in anything other then a high vertical jump lol. Misses so many tackles, takes awful angles and is never makes a play

That's exactly what's wrong with this team. Constantly hanging on to scrubs because "they're the best we got". This bum should've been let go after escorting Sidney Rice into the endzone in that playoff debacle in Minnesota.

Only Cowboys fans would consider keeping Sensy while thinking about cutting Romo, TRat, Miles, and such.....this fanbase is absolutely unbelievable sometimes.

Lolololol at the guys on this board who were defending Sensy preseason. Saying he was an 80 on a scale of 100....hahahahahaha 80?!? How about 63

Even if we kept the gang together (which I doubt), Sensy would be the worse starter on defense and its not even close.

Yet some try to justify keeping him around, I just don't get it at all.

TheCoolFan · 01-01-2013

No clue. Maybe he's great in the locker room so that buys you 5+ years. Ken Hamlin was better and he still got the ax after 3 years

I can think of 3 plays Sensi made this year and that is it. Seems like a nice guy, but overpaid and a liability on the field, sorry.

He made a nice, important open-field tackle on Richardson in the Cleveland game. His only good technique tackle I saw him make all year.

He broke up two passes in the end zone this year, by hitting the receiver just as they jumped up and caught the ball.

Otherwise, he is a step late, and shows ZERO anticipation in the passing game. He takes terrible angles.

His tackling is some of the worst for a safety I've ever seen - he shoulder tackles, often closing his eyes and completely missing or bouncing off. Unfortunately, that has now transferred to a number of our other
DB's as well.

Other than LineBackers, your safeties should easily be your best tacklers on the team - not even close.

WAY overpaid. I also don't think he's super smart calling teh defense back there either.

Easy upgrade or at least similar production from a much younger/cheaper/tougher tackling player please!

I've never understood why anyone would want him out there, and the 'we have bigger problems' excuse is lame. He is our worst player on defense if you look at our lineup next year, there are problems that are equal but none are that much bigger than the need to upgrade the talent at safety to support the CBs we spent so much money on.

Keeping a 30 year old below average safety will haunt us all next season if we keep Sensy in a starting role.

Man, I cannot get that play out of my head. I was complaining about it again, after he whiffed on a tackle in Sunday's game.

Tenkamenin · 01-01-2013

sensabaugh is really an undersized linebacker playing a position that requires athleticism, speed and ball awareness, unfortunately he lacks in all 3 areas.

lane · 01-02-2013

gerald is not quite as bad as some on here would think.

he has been serviceable.

had church not got hurt.... it would have been showtime back there.

Has been servicable doesn't mean he is presently serviceable, although the 'has been' part might be right.

The truth is noone knows what would've happened with Church for a full season, his lack of speed among other things could have gotten exposed later in the season for all we know at the moment. And now he has a horrible injury for a DB, and he is our hope for the position....yeah right.

I'm sure it would've been showtime up front if Kenyon stayed healthy.....not. Sensy is about like Kenyon, very mediocre at best at this point. A 30 year old should be journeymen that we continue to give a check to for some odd reason.
