Something to be excited about

Zman5 said:
Why are you still here? You posted you were going to quit posting once Dak signs his extension. You also claimed @Rockport ran away. Why do you keep lying over and over again? I know it's hard for you but man up and stop lying all the time.

I don’t understand Mountaineer Cowboy. If I were that unhappy I would find something else to do with my spare time. Sounds like he is completely miserable being a fan of the Cowboys. I was excited about our draft. It may not translate to success on the field but at least it gives me some optimism. Go out and get a WR2 and stay healthy and we could have a fun year ahead of us.
 
If Micah goes down or regresses, the Cowboys are toast (wondering if I did that right?)…

(had to know if I could post that without laughing….I couldn’t)

Weird that you’re defending a guy who goes around telling people to find a new team to root for, or calling them a “hater” at every turn making it an insult on this site. You’re defending a guy who has also made things racial and how they should root for their team. @MountaineerCowboy does none of those things.

I'm not defending anyone. I'm just calling out MonutainOysterBoy for lying all the time.
If anything, you are defending a guy that just lies and complains about the Cowboys. Go look at his posting history.
 
Rockport said:
I’ve been around long enough to know that to reach the upper echelon’s of the NFL playoffs and to compete for a Super Bowl you’ll need to have very good offensive and defensive lines. You HAVE to have a legitimate running game so that late in the games with the lead you can pound away the time on the clock. Likewise you need a defensive line that can eliminate opposing teams running games. So when the new head coach voiced these same feelings I was immediately onboard with the hire.

And then the draft and they picked 3 d-lineman, 2 o-lineman and 2 running backs furthering Scotty’s vision. We all should be excited about this change in philosophy for the Cowboys. They’re trying to become a tough, physical team on both sides of the ball. The season doesn’t start until September so there’s plenty of time to address the hole at WR and maybe a CB. So win or lose, there’s something to be excited about after last year’s mess.

Nice post. I agree. You’ve been posting some very solid things since you’ve come back. Don’t let the trolls drag you down to their level.

Once the season starts is when he will go back to his old self. Dak's performance will be on full display yet again and will be even more difficult to defend since we fixed the O-line and drafted a credible RB threat

You’re defending a guy who made the term “hater” an insult on this very site. You’re also defending a guy who DM’s people and accuse them of things on this site. I know MC who he is and what he’s said. You may not agree with him, but he’s nothing like the poster you’re defending. I’ve been around here long enough to know both of their posting history’s.
 
Even if we win just 5 games, I'm still hopeful going forward. We have reason now to be optimistic. Shotty is pressing all the right buttons. I luv the fact his staff seems to genuinely get along well, and are all in the same page. Love how he's allowing Flus to cook and get the groceries for his defense.

The draft strategy was good imo and it does appear we want to run successfully first and pass second. I have my reservations with Shotty. Having a guy partly responsible for the culture issues on the prior staff now being promoted is questionable at best. An outside voice without bias would have been a better path, but here we are.

How was he supposed to override MM AND the Jones?

Point to my post where I'm "defending" anyone. I referenced Rockport because your buddy MountainOysterBoy lied about him. Another one of many lies told by him.

Why are you defending MonutainOyerstBoy? All he does is lie and complain about the Cowboys. For you to defend a poster like that tells me you must be just like him.
 
Let me start off by saying I'm a huge fan of this years draft class.....with that said though we need to be realistic about expectations for these guys. I say this not because I don't want fans to be excited about the Cowboys, but we do a disservice to the players every year by putting so much on their shoulders. Last year Tyler Guyton....the hype machine took him up to the moon only for him to come crashing back down. Similar with Caelen Carson after a hot preseason. 7th rounder Justin Rogers was labeled as a quick fix big body 1T to fix the run game....didnt even make the roster.

Last year in all the NFL here is how many players were regular starters by round:

1st round - 20/32 players
2nd round - 12/32 players
3rd round - 7/36 players
4th round - 6/35 players
5th round - 3/41 players
6th round - 1/44 players
7th round - 0/37 players
Entire draft class - 49/257 picks were starting players (Just 6 of those players were voted to a pro bowl)....Now I'm sure there were some guys not considered "regular starters" that came on late in the year to get some starts or were valuable role players as well, but on the flip side there were also some very bad rookie starters who were liabilities for their teams as well.

Really with the draft I think the number you want to focus on is 1.5....Can you get more than 1.5 multi year starting caliber players out of any draft for your team. If so its typically a pretty good draft. If you can get 1 along with some really solid role players its typically a pretty solid class as well.

To half these guys from the Cowboys draft class just making the team is going to be a success story. Be patient with these guys, enjoy the small victories when they happen throughout their individual journeys, but lets keep level heads when they get overhyped as well....not fair to these guys who really have the odds stacked against them for the most part.

He’s addicted to the drama. It’s his hobby.

Dude, if we win 5 games this year then there is no way in hell you can be optimistic with this team, especially if Dak plays all season
