Are the Cowboys about to enter a dark decade?

I totally need a rambo2 counter to this OP.
Haze can post all the facts he wants.
Regular season banners still rule! But now even those are less likely considering the Eagles and Commanders management, direction and rosters.

And the dark decade(s) of Cowboy mediocrity will continue.

Cowboys!
 
Windows open and close unexpectedly all the time in the NFL. I dont have much faith in Jerry but Philly and Wash could go south any time, that's how it works.

I don't expect to deal with the injuries we had this past season for starters. Look if you guys choose to stay down and pout that is on you I think Cowboys will be in post season next year.
 
We are in the dark universe like that Warner Bros. thing they wasted 100s of millions on.

Even if we don’t have the large amount of injuries, they’ll still be injuries. Injuries happen every year. Even when we were pretty healthy we STUNK! The HC hire was the most uninspiring since Campo. That certainly didn’t bring any optimism. You’re saying the Cowboys will make the playoffs next season but that’s nothing more than wishful thinking. The Cowboys are going to have to be much more active in free agency than they’ve been and have a much better draft than the past two years or they could be worse next season. Our last two first round picks have been duds and Dak’s best years are behind him. Our OL and DL are not good. We’ll likely end up overpaying Parsons who never shows up in big games. I see nothing to be encouraged about as we sit here this very moment. We’ll see how the offseason plays out.

Decade is a long time and things change FAST in the NFL so no, not a decade. If we do have a 3 win season, a top QB, DL 2nd round can change things quickly.

That said, I reckon we are in for a bumpy time, the roster seems miles away right now so 3 years, maybe 4 sub .5 would not surprise me 1 bit.

You are correct. Things changed really fast after Jimmy left.

and that is your opinion, sorry not joining in on the pity party. I don't expect you or anyone else to feel as I do. Yes injuries happen to all but injuries along the DL, the LB and secondary was a killer. You see nothing to be encouraged about again that is how you see it. I'm not here to change anyone's mind or to join in on the attack of anything the Cowboys do.

I’m just telling it straight. What encourages you that makes you believe the Cowboys will make the playoffs next season? It’s always possible but they have to get past Washington and Philly. Currently the team is in the dumpster. That could change if the Joneses stop sitting around looking for bottom tier free agents and make some solid signings. They also need to have a much better draft than what they’ve had the past couple of years and have to stop using high draft picks on projects.
 
Philly will have a bad season or two and we will get back on top and back and forth

No you are telling it how you see it, again I am not telling you what to think. Dallas beat Washington this past season and damn near beat them with a 3rd string sorry if I don't think as highly on Washington as you. Philly clearly are the better team in large part the addition of Barkley. As for this off season I do think the Cowboys will be a lot more active in FA

Super Bowl(playoff) teams FA's typically get picked up by other teams, or force them to over pay to retain them.

It takes a real GM to navigate through that. Something Jerry can't seem to figure out. So we can make some progress, here and there, but we will not get passed hanging out at the rim.

NFL network just graded this year's draft class. We were ranked 26th in the league and signed one decent free agent. Dark decade indeed and staying dark.

Keep Jerry out of the War Room.

When is the last time we won a war.

Keep in mind we lucked into getting both Parsons and CD dropping in our laps.
