I agree with you that Jerry will spare no expense to get to the SB. The question is: Does he even know how he plans to get there? No identity.
So true .

Wow you sound like me .

I started a thread about the same thing and nobody agreed with me .

NO TEAM IDENTITY !

Gotcha.

Norm has always stated that he loves Jerry the owner. He has also stated that he hates Jerry the GM. I think most of us would agree.

This move makes no sense.

1) You guys need to beef up the d-line and generate a pass rush out of a 4 man front

2) Who is the cover MLB? Is it Lee? can he stay on the field?

3) The safeties

4) The 2 deep scheme, barring a Warren Sapp/Simeon Rice/Derrick Brooks front, or having an offense with Manning at QB, is begging to be run on with only 7 men in the box. I think Alfred Morris had his first 200 yard game against the Cowboys on December 30th

If he can manage to get 11 players on the field that know what they are doing before the snap, I like the move.

I am not happy about this ,we never really implememted the 3-4 properly after ferguson got injured and Rat came in and had success at NT.We just created more problems and holes in the defense and our average safdties will be exposed brutally.

Let's hope for a bang-up draft. We need some ballers !!!

Heck, we players all over this team.

If this is the level of excitement Jerry is generating this off-season, it's going to be a serious snooze-fest. Why am I not excited over a 72 year old DC?

Lol, sad thing is. I think Kiffin would win.


Looking spry at 70+.


Goofy, uncoordinated, talenteless, ugly. Advantage Kiffin.


Incredibly average, has a pedo-smile. Advantage Kiffin.

Skins just got dominated by this scheme in its last game.

But you are correct in saying that Dallas needs some personnel upgrades. Lee is not one of them though.

I think we all agree to some extent that this team has no direction. Jason Garrett was my hope that the Cowboys could build an identity. My hope is fading...again.

As long as Jerry keeps changing his mind about the direction of his team every time he changes his underwear, they will never have direction. As long as Jerry keeps looking at other teams for inspiration, this team will not develop an identity. As long as Jerry keeps listening to his so-called advisors, this team will never have a solid coach.

Because Dallas hired him. I am fairly certain that if Philly had you'd be talking about how our Offense should be cowering in abject fear and touting his accomplishments.

This is actually the only part that makes sense to me. Couple of seasons ago Lee had more INTs than our entire secondary, and getting him out of the muck against OGs as a 3-4 ILB will help him stay on the field.

Carter can actually do it too.

In fact these two I suspect are the impetus for the whole decision.

If Philly hired him, I wouldn't even have batted an eye.

Skins got dominated once RG3 was on one leg or else a 60% RG3 was running over the Seahawks in the first quarter.

Also Seattle has far superior personell on D. Dallas has a ways to go to reach that level.

Seattle played a 1 FS man under D. 1 FS up top, 8-9 in the box.

Monte calls for the 2 deep with the MLB racing backwards, essentially vacating the box. IF the Redskins choose to continue to utilize the read option scheme, it'll be easy pickings to give the ball to Morris and have him gain 7-9 yards a carry.

Essentially what Oregon did to USC over and over and over back in November

I actually think this will help cost Garrett his job after 2013.
