I've said this 10 times and I'll say it again.
I challenge anybody to watch Zeke in 2016 vs today.
If I didn't know better I'd swear it was a different person.
You cannot deny your own eyes.
There were warning signs everywhere with this guy, yet Jerry plowed ahead as usual.
Now we'll be paying till the end of NEXT season.
We are now paying a JAG for 2 more years, along with jaylon.

Just for the heck of it, I think we should start Rico Dowdle at RB vs. the Steelers -- he couldn't be much worse than Zeke! :grin:

I'm going with Jaylon Smith on this one. Never seen his combination of gutlessness, cluelessness, and exuberance.

I'd wonder how you felt before the OL went crappy and the OC became Kellen Moore?

Agreed. DLaw is not far behind in the I got my money so I no longer play hard
Thanks for letting everyone know you didn't watch the game tonight. Also Tank's effort has been there all year. The sack numbers aren't there but he's played his but off.

Yall keep directing your hate at individual players instead of hating the ownership. Why is Nate Jones still on the team? Why do we have open roster spots? Why is the roster been mismanaged? There are 10-12 quality QBs in the league and you have one of them and you won't even sign him.

Aikman wasn't a particularly charming guy either. Am I super wrong for never liking him?

He would not make my list. Aikman was a little bit vanilla but I don't think he was a terrible guy. I mean, I guess it depends on how you measure this thing. He was highly motivated, I don't really see that as a negative thing. Aikman drove this team to a great extent, in the early 90s. You don't have him, you probably don't have three championships.

DLaw has been playing his arse off all year. People ignored the fact that he got his knee rolled up in the Rams game and played 3-4 games on one leg. Of course had he shut it down and sat out those games the same people claiming he sucks would have been killing him for taking the money but not suiting up. You can't win once people get a narrative stuck in their heads. Collinsworth said it a half dozen times tonight.. when he watched tape Lawrence's hustle and effort jumped off the tape.. But folks will keep up the "he got paid and no longer cares" noise. To which I say, whatever..

Of course, the other side of that story is that if you demand top money to play, then expectations are great and you deal with that, as a player. You want a fan base to give slack, it helps to give a bit of a hometown discount a lot of times. You don't do that, you don't get slack and that's understood. That's what Lawrence did and so, he deserves all he gets. It's always something there. It's a shoulder that he waits on or an ankle or whatever it is. Bottom line, you gotta show up in games and you gotta win.

I dislike Taco and Jaylon more than Zeke but he's down there as well.

Funny to me that the most unlikeable Cowboys I've ever seen were drafted so closely.

Pollard has been a better back for 2 seasons now..change my mind.

Not gonna try to change your mind, since i know you aren't interested in anything like that.

However...I will say our #2 RB's always looks good...until they have to take the #1 beatings.

I challenge you to name the 2016 OL roster and then the 2020 OL roster.

I won't say it again and again, tho.

Individual skills have diminished, surely you can see that.
