Will McCarthy have us better than 8-8 or worse?

Anyone else think this is pretty hard schedule?
Cowboys Home: Commanders, Giants, Eagles, 49ers, Cardinals, Steelers, Browns, Falcons
Away: Commanders, Giants, Eagles, Seahawks, Rams, Ravens, Bengals, Vikings

Sounds plenty difficult enough to me.

If he doesn't use Garrett's Magic 8-Ball, we're good.

Sure, make every excuse on the book for your failed hero for over a decade and then make immediate demands of the new head coach. Put your hypocrisy on full display, in case there's anyone out there that still doesn't know.

Stop. God, stash. If you can’t even string together a coherent argument, that’s fine. Just don’t post then. Either have the courage of your own conviction, or don’t. That’s fine. But don’t try to make it my problem.

Either “coaching” was the issue all these years, or it wasn’t. You don’t get to try to have it both ways and then call *me* the hypocrite.

I don't need an "argument" for calling you exactly who and what you are. You do the legwork for me with your blatant hypocrisy and double standards. A decade of excuses for your failed 'hero' while "McCarthy needs to win immediately".

What's amazes me the most is that you still show your face. Thankfully much less, but still, that takes either a heck of a lot of nerve or a total lack of self awareness.

Nobody's trying. I'm not the guy who's double standards on on full display for the world to see. That's you.

What's the talent going to look like in September? We already know the CB1 is gone.

Is the WR1 going to continue his disappearing act? Because that's been his MO since he entered the league.

Interior of the DL going to be the same?

And the biggest ? of all isn't the Cowboys, it's the opposition. They seem to be better at picking the right FA's.

If I were a betting man, without all of the necessary info available yet, I would say better, 1 game better at 9-7.

You're in a bad mood today. Must be Monday.

I'm big on calling out hypocrisy and obvious double-standards where I see it. Especially from the few remaining Garrett holdouts that still can't accept the fact that he was nothing but a decade long waste of time and a failure.

That's his legacy.

For some people, none of that matters. McCarthy has to do better in year one than Garrett ever did. That's their double standard on full display. It doesn't matter that he has 25 free agents and the big contracts to worry about after Garrett squandered it all.

Certainly your choice. I tend to take a tempered opinion of Garrett.

Some things were certainly his fault.
Some things were put upon him unfairly by Jerry.
He certainly wasn't the worst Cowboy coach ever.
He may be the hardest to judge fairly with the conditions he worked under.

From that standpoint people should have mixed feelings about Garrett. That doesn't make the hypocrites.

I don't intend to "discuss" this. It's my opinion. You are the most unreasonable person on the board when you think you are right. You may not agree with that.

Nobody ever said he was "the worst Cowboy coach ever". Let's talk about what is actually being said without Strawman arguments.

And as far as "conditions"? Nobody ever had it any better than Jason Garrett did, if we're going to talk facts.

Excusing his failure while trying to hold the next coach to higher standards does.

I'm fine with that being your opinion. If you think that making excuses for a failed coach while trying to hold the next one to higher standards is 'reasonable' and not hypocritical, it says much more about you than it does me.

Good we agree! We can both get on with our day!

Now for the definition of hypocrite. Go read the Nick Foles stuff.

I agreed with you.
Then you disagreed with my agreement.....
I laughed, but I went along.......laughing all the way.

How do you disagree with a person who agreed with your post?
What do you call a person who does that?

Don't reply. Just think about it.

And exactly what does his size have to do with trust and ability?
.
You are taking this much too seriously. Tangle Foot, who you first responded to, was joking, as was I. Tangle Foot even had a laughing emoji to show he was joking.

Is that what's upset you? Where did you get the impression that I "disagreed" with you there? I wasn't disagreeing with you, but the author you quoted. If you got a different impression, I'd be more than happy to discuss it.

Omer, if you're looking for a sense of humor from that one, look elsewhere. I joked with him in my first ever response to him and he still hasn't forgiven me for it.
