Before the 9ers before they were good were horrible, it seemingly happened overnight from year to year.. Cowboys have lots of new players and coaches to assume that it won't come together and they all suck is nut rolling at it's finest.. All defenses are giving up big plays and yards for the most part, it's because they're behind right now... I actually believe the defense is going to get better as the year goes on because we have some very good players and positional coaches at play here...

Also, In terms of what Jeff said on Twitter about Griffen, I think he was wrong actually. To say Griffen hasn't been good at all is not factual. The guy has gotten a sack and has clogged up some running lanes. He also has been motivated and has played hard. You can't say after two games that Griffen hasn't been good at all, this is just an ignorant statement this early in the year. If you're going to put that stuff up on twitter, expect some backlash.

Very good players? Who are they? You mean a couple? Problem is the few that we have are at DE and they cant play other positions.

If your offended by my reality, then you should be offended by our defense. The secondary, as easily predicted might be the worst in the NFL. Lbers bottom 5, DT's bottom 5, safeties the worst in the NFL.

Unfortunately for the coaches, they don't have much to work with. As far as the DE's they were supposed to be great. Still waiting for that to happen.

And FYI....…….Aldon and Griffin are one year rentals. So the problem go really deep.

You can cry if you want to, but it wont make our players any better.

So they can either be tough/good at the beginning or end of the season? Not both?

I guess it’s too much to ask/expect a professional athlete to actually be productive for the entire season. So sorry
Oline gets paid too

he didn't. He simply posed a question and EG responded all butt hurt. MAYBE thats good medicine for him.
a lot of pro athletes have fragile egos. they've lived in a world of adulation since their teen years.

wow IMO this is good, fire up our players,..
I actually kinda like that EG is butt hurt. It shows me he cares at least. He took it personal and he should have. JEFF was doing his job however. He did not make it about him one bit. MAYBE he hit on a nerve with EG? Truth hurts.

now only if DFLAW would act like he cares about his craft.I would give anything to see him respond like EG did on twitter. It would mean the dude takes his game seriously. I just have my doubts about DLAW..

BINGO^ That is like 95% of it. Then when JJ placates the team and tells them how awesome they are, they think they are above reproach. Its time the local Dallas media calls it as it see's it like Jeff did. He did his job. Kudos to him.

Didn't Griffin get our only sack? Wouldn't that put him on a pace for 8 sacks this year? What is his cost? 3 million? Sounds like a deal to me.

I love Cavanaugh hahah. Brutally honest.

He'll probably say something in his YouTube segment today about this.
Cavanaugh is an idiot. He thinks you should always draft WRs and doesn’t believe in a running game. He’s a coaches worst nightmare because he’s a PFF analytic nerd that doesn’t take things in context like why a player is struggling out of the gate with no offseason and just signing a month ago. Dude played WR at Abilene Christian. He’s not exactly Cris Collinsworth

Of all the DL to be hating on it isn't Griffen. Although he is absent too. For me it is our fake elite pass rusher D Law. Now, he is the guy to be ripping holes in. That dude stole Jerry's money and seems to not care at all. Now he is hurt lol. Griffen at least is new so he has that excuse. DLaw has none. He has turned into a major disappointment.

some of the football “experts” on here would say otherwise.

While Cavanaugh isn't "wrong" , criticizing Griffen who makes $3 million while ignoring Lawrence making 7 times that amount doesn't make a lot of sense......
I'm gathering that he was talking about several players, and Griffen is the only one who got testy about it.
