Game Day ***Cowboys vs Jaguars Postgame thread***

[MikeB80]

They going to sit the entire starting offense in Tampa? but I do agree the players you just watched would not score 21 on the Tampa starters..

I am speaking specifically to the starting offense. Can they score 21 on Todd Bowles defense in Tampa in two weeks?

 

[CowboyFrog]

No, give me 21 points...the Bucs have to win by 22. I figure the offense is good for some FG's and maybe one TD.

For the record, the Bucs got thrashed last week by a bad team. Is anyone backing off them as a SB contender?

No way I heard Brady was playing.....

 

[Mannix]

With good health, I think even the worst coach in the league could get this team to 7 to 9 wins. A good coach could get them to 10-12. Where do you think McCarthy will have them?

Yes our starters can...I missed where people around the NFL didn't like our offense...

 

[Fla Cowpoke]

Well, after witnessing some of today's game, all i can say is i did not expect much from the Cowboys scrubs.....and they did not disappoint.

It is disgusting that our backups got smashed by the backups of a team that went 1-15.

season ticket holders who own every seat in that stadium have to pay for the tickets to these preseason games by may 1st. You don't have a choice. You have a choice to buy the playoff tickets but not the preseason.

I should’ve said anyone who buys those tickets on the secondary market lol. Preseason games are awful.

I don't see why anyone would back off Tampa as nfc favorites this year.. Brady actually playing like his age or injuries would be only the only reason to think they have slipped. Maybe complacency. They have a complete roster and a great coaching staff. The nfc is not really very good top to bottom.

Only if the Bucs are leading by +30 pts at the start of the 4th Q.....we are in trouble....

 

[mmohican29]

I'm never like this, but I fear a total **** show this season.

This team showed so little effort and made so few plays over the course of the pre-season that quite honestly, it's difficult to envision any modicum of success at all.

 

[Fla Cowpoke]

SF ready to up 14-0...starters vs backups.

 

[CowboyFrog]

And when we come back and win you can STILL call it garbage time because I dont want to break tradition...

Live your dream as it's a free country.
Reality is almost here hope you're ready for it......

How many players were really backups?

 

[Buzzbait]

Hopefully the Giants let us re-sign Jason Garrett without asking for a draft pick.

No thank you. On 2nd thought, just NO.

 

[Fla Cowpoke]

In the second half...it was our bottom tier against theirs....and they spanked us.

 

[cowboyec]

from the little i saw...jabril cox looked good.

 

[Risen Star]

Nobody has a better feel for this team than I do.

7, 8, 9 wins this year. Not a real contender.

 

[Bizwah]

In the second half...it was our bottom tier against theirs....and they spanked us.

And those players won't be on the team come next week.

 

[TheCoolFan]

I fully expect one of the first moves we hear about will be that DiNucci is put on the practice squad. Can't let the young Romo get away

In all honesty, there were a few of our "backups" in the game.
Offense:
Steele
McGovern

Defense:
Cox (possibly)
Hooker
Wright (possibly)
Bossman (possibly)

The other players may make the practice squad....or special teams.

The Jags played many of their actual starters on offense and defense.
