They better not cut Houston to make room!

Wouldn't be Houston. Would be Turner, most likely.

Here are the 2024 defensive starters we lost and who has replaced them:

• DE DeMarcus Lawrence >>>>> Marshawn Kneeland
• Slot Corner Jourdan Lewis>>>>>Zion Childress
• OLB DeMarvion Overshown >>>>>Marist Liafau
• MLB Eric Kendricks >>>>>>>>>Jack Sanborn

I may have missed someone. Are we better at these positions than last year? On a defense ranked 31st last year in overall defense? It does not appear to be better.

And they were top 10 the year prior.
Maybe it’s time to move on from some of those older players.
It’s a safe bet that neither Lawrence or Lewis are going to live up to those contracts. It wouldn’t be that surprising if neither one even made it through the season.
As for Kendticks it’s addition through subtraction. You could fill his production with an orange construction barrel!
We dropped a 2nd and 3rd on Kneeland and Liafau… time to play them to determine if/when to move on!

But if you know that you stand to get $200 million guaranteed vs. $21 million guaranteed, you are more likely to take the risk.

In regular job terms, that's like being willing to walk a tight rope for $2 million vs. $200,000. You know $2 million may set you up for life if something happens, but not $200,000, so you might be more motivated to do it. In a game with high risk of injury and high salaries, the stakes are different.

Where is 200 vs 21 coming from???

Jerry offered him a new contract, his agent passed. The new contract was not 21. That is what he is making now.

We need a running game. We don't have Kurt Warner in shotgun. I don't trust Dak constantly throwing into coverage.

Agreed.

Without strong running game only mahomes or Burrows can succeed. Everybody else needs run support

 

[5Stars]

Say what!?

Now that sounds like someone on drugs or drunk. Talks in the third person, too.

 

[Pass2Run]

Limited Diggs if he plays at all
Bland
Elam
Steward 7th rounder with very little actual game play
Bridges

I know many if you are upset about DT spot. But CB was my biggest concern and nothing to really improve has been done.

I know we have Diggs returning and Revel maybe coming. But this is pretty bad spot to be in.

Frustrating as a fan.

Let's hope for an injury free game there. Maybe after week 1 they add Gilly or a vet.

Will be Gilmore, most likely.

 

[CowboysFaninHouston]

Giants suck
Washington had an extremely soft schedule

It still comes down to the Cowboys and the Eagles.

Washington had similar schedule to ours.....

 

[Pass2Run]

Get him signed

Or make a deal

Just pick one. Anything else is a dumpster fire.

Nah, let him play on the contract that he's currently obligated to fulfill.

A resign deal is already agreed upon. They're just doing this for advertising..

Reading all the posts here indicates fans have turned their collective backs on Micah. If Jerry Jones was as good an owner, if he were as good a GM as Micah Parsons is a football player the Dallas Cowboys would not have gone almost 30 years with little to no playoff success.

If fans feel Micah Parsons is the problem he at least has expressed a willingness to leave. Cowboys fans would no longer be burdened with him. Jerry Jones can’t even figure out how to do that. And Jerry has been the Cowboys for as many decades as Micah has years. But now they’re supposed to think Micah is the problem?

Jerry has expressed no willingness to leave. He expects the sale of replica jerseys and logo key chains to continue to sell feeling every bit as bulletproof as he does after five glasses of Johnnie Walker Blue. He’ll continue as he always has hateful of anyone with the temerity to be more popular with fans than he is. He fired Landry and Johnson. Not prudent to jettison Micah without a decent return. He’s stuck with a mess he created. Like Dak, it is going to cost him.

The Eagles are beatable. Not just by the Cowboys, but by many teams. They face the Chiefs and Rams after the Cowboys. They know they have to win this one as they are not winning both of the next two. Jerry has the Cowboys limping in. It’s a shame.

I have not turned my back on Micah. Jerry just has all the cards and Micah can not win in this scenario.

Why would Jerry ever consider caving???

He has literally nothing to lose. If this was a SB bound team, he would have something to lose.

That is not this team.

The same thing happened to Dak twice. Does anyone recall this drama back then? No because there wasn't any.

It only became an issue when Dak had the no trade clause and they could not tag him anymore.

Washington had similar schedule to ours.....

Yes, there schedule sucked.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

If memory serves i don't believe you were around for those days. Its definitely less interesting in that case. I was in high-school and enjoyed getting a look behind the scenes and hearing from the players. Totally different connection there. If I was in your shoes Id probably not have any interest either, to be fair. Hopefully they'll give you something worth recollecting at some point.

Yeah, I was born in 92

 

[revospeed]

Seems like fraudulent conduct by Micah. Trying to manufacture an injury so he can sit out and still get paid. How can anyone defend that? Horrible.

 

[Jarntt]

And sand for Dsknig was playing for the colts Ged be out of the league

No respect, if hakgt h e QBs could do it you think half of those QBs play the game he's had in two super bowls?

That's just sad, give either Goff or mayfirkd anari and lamb and watch what happens. When Dak actually plays well in a big game ket us know, until then the next level or two down.

did you have an aneurism?

 

[Chasing6]

Clearly doesn't!! He's able to get down the field what WR can't especially if it's a 50/50 ball, exactly how much speed is needed to do that! Pickens ran a 4.47, CLEARLY there's many many wrs in the league that are faster lol

Good job Mike!!!!

So we don't need to be more physical, we need to be faster.

 

[5Stars]

No! Please don't get rid of Micah. Without him the team will never win a game again, or a SB. Please, Jerry if you read this, give him all the money he wants so he will go away. Micah is like the crybaby at night wanting his warm bottle and momma gets up and gives it to him.

Brat man...11.

 

[dacopacabana]

Pass. The NFC North can go any route with the right addition.

This puts them in the 20’s.

This would need picks and players.

 

[Whyjerry]

Hurts over Burrow? Ridiculous.

Well Micah is not the only one who can file a grievance.

 

[darthseinfeld]

Wouldn't be Houston. Would be Turner, most likely.

I doubt either. He will probably be on the PS

 

[Chasing6]

Yup
Couldve cut RB Sanders and re-signed without risk or remorse in my mind, in order to not risk Childress

Zion has not been picked up off waivers.
