We don't have the front office expertise to do what the rams are doing. I was just pointing out that the Rams are being run correctly. Goff got them them further than Dak has ever got this team but it wasn't good enough in LA. They went out and got a better Qb.

That organization not only has more expertise evaluating talent and managing the cap, but they also have higher expectations than the Jones boys who have been redefining front office mediocrity for 25 years and the bar keeps getting lower.
Stop the press....Jones' can't run football team..Shocker.:(;)

When you're one or two players out and don't have early round draft picks you're only avenue is FA. As @PAPPYDOG mentioned, it does help to be SB Champ's.

Unfortunately when your roster's short of: LG, LB, DT?, WR, T and relying on a number of untried rookies to step up you make the decision to either go all in on one player and hope or spread the risk. There isnt a necessary right or wrong, but lets not pretend we're in a similar position to the Rams.
All teams have needs and need upgrades in some or most positions but......QB is KING!
The Rams got rid of a top pick QB (Goff) and went out paid the price and picked up the missing link which was Stafford.
Now the rest is just window dressing......
YES, that's how important a quality NFL QB is for any team?
Now you can choose to listen to the cries of its a "Team Game" but in the end without a great engine that Car isn't going far!!!!!
GL with Dak........................

Yeah Stafford never won a playoff game until now, man was 0-3 in post season and now he is elite? lol Rams loaded up with talent, both sides of the ball because they know QB must have talent around them to have a chance. Hell Rams SB was a team win.

Thats what pisses me off! If you dont have a QB that is talented and can make all the throws your not winning anything. People say well Dak has intangibles which I dont agree with but even if he had the best intangibles without the physical talent he is worthless for winning a championship. You know who else has one playoff win but not given the chances that Dak has been given. Case Keenum! Jerry got fleeced signing him to top money on short contract. Dak knew Jerry was going to be knocking on his door to extend that to save cap money.

Strange response to a post that said we aren't in the same position as the Rams.

Rams striking while the iron is hot.

People do forget that lost some players too....like Von Miller and Andrew Whitworth, and Robert Woods. All three of those cleared a lot of cap space.

It hasn't been only additions for those guys, though there have been some good ones.

is this the rams zone did i miss hit a key an ended up in the wrong place???? feels like it.? who cares not me why is sg still out there? must be money vs age vs what hes got left.. the rams this season will be the lakers paper champions that will disappoint.

Book it..so hyped yet lakers won that ship then all the talk was how many could that team win in row..lmao what happened? what happened to TB with the returning 22 all these fans said book than some b2b ships..lmao.

i lie how all these alleged Cowboy fans stay over in the rams drool zone..

how the powers that be allow all these non cowboys posts in the zone is beyond me..theres an NFL section a off topic section and yet the front page is now the nfl zone.

this is easy GO BE A RAMS FAN we all know you are already. Thats to all of you who do nothing but post about other teams and make sure you take shot at the Cowboys.

Its not just this year, its every year there are players they should look. Instead they bring in players who are basically washed up like Gerald McCoy and Dontari Poe.

or like Hooker, Kearse, and neal, and kazee..sure looked to do pretty well last year..i guess we will overlook that to post another hate response huh..

when McCoy, poe, hardy and others were brought in fans liked those moves until they didn't work out.

here you go

wear it loud and proud.time to come out of the closet

What I find strange is stressing our position needs and stating we don't compare to the Rams when the Captian and the man who holds the Ball the most in his hands is a tier 3 talent.
We have surrounded our Leader with the best in the NFL and all we got is one playoff win!
Maybe it's time to consider changing the QB and then worry about our other positions!!!

Great team win. No doubt.

Having said that, Stafford led the NFL by a large margin in 4th quarter production and late-game winning drives.
He actually went the entire year without a 4th quarter interception vs something like 15-16 TDs

I'm in the camp that thinks he would have already had multiple deep playoff runs and possibly SB wins if he was with a good organization

Doesn't matter now.
We can just judge him now on how is now doing with a good roster and how he will do going forward.

Even Rodgers and Wilson only have 1 SB win, so it's clearly not easy. And they have played on many good teams.

To be honest, the team other than Dallas that I'm really curious about this year is Denver.
Thats a great-looking roster on both sides of the ball, and now they have Wilson and a good OC

A team that wins it all and is still aggressively pursuing another one. I remember back when that was the Cowboys…

Yeah the good old days. They don't have that hunger anymore. Living fat off the hog that got them there.

Denver ya everyone remembers them and what they did to our offense???
In fact they felt so bad they let us score some PITY TD's at the end of the game......:(....in our house !!!
With Wilson, they are now a bonified SB contender!
Are we????

It’s frustrating going from an aggressive, winning team at the top of the league to a complacent one, happy about the money coming in.

They are a marvel.

They have a top notch coaching staff, and a supporting, clever and aggressive front office that is providing that coaching staff with
legitimate chances to get to Super bowls, ..to win Super bowls.

And they have now been to 2 SBs, winning one, ..while it's been over 25 years since we've last s

They compete for Super Bowl berths both on and off the field. They have blue print plans and they are cleverly aggressive.
They do not gamble around with dishing out FA contracts and trades for JAGs and serviceable players ala Barry Church, Damien Wilson Anthony Hitchens, etc.

You're just reiterating your one pet hate, Dak. The Rams got to the SB with Goff, realised he was potentially the weak link and went all in with Stafford. Odd top end FA's or trading draft picks is a decent way of rounding off an already good team.
We aren't a QB away from competing for SB's....as we appear to be doing this year, give tgd recent draftees a chance and we may find we are just that one or pieces away.
