I tried to warn everyone. A lot of us did

[phildadon86]

Anyone who is expecting the Cowboys to have an easy win last night was delusional.

And this is the problem with our fan base. Like the players, they look at the record and not the team that’s going on the field.

Our fan base took Tampa lightly so did the team and here we are.

Nothing has changed. The culture is the same.

This team was unprepared unwilling and just simply not good enough.

I don’t wanna hear excuses about 11 days. I don’t wanna hear excuses about injuries. Tampa was missing it starting quarterback.. the injury excuses stop there.

Our fan base is embarrassing. And I’m not expecting to see any of the guys on here today who love calling realistic fans names.

I’m not expecting anyone to eat crow about how wrong they were about this team.

As it stands right now, we have one of the worst defences in the league after investing quite a bit into it, our offence refuses to run the ball because our head coach in over his head, and our owner sees nothing wrong because he did the work to put this team on the field and this coaching staff together.

I hope you guys are in for a wild ride because this season might be the worst one we’ve seen in a long time.

And this all starts at Jerry, thinking he’s the smartest man in the room, trying to prove to the football world that he’s a football guy when he’s not.

Jerry hired Schotty over Vrabel and Ben Johnson. Comfort over competence. We all suffer for it.

Dak the paint horse has never been the answer! I said that the day they have him all the cash! As long as people show up to Jerry world they do not care!

I will add that Jerry creates the issues for the fanbase (see last 30 seasons playoff results) because he is incapable of building a championship defense.

I don't believe that to be true at all.

It IS the worst!!!

I had decent familarity with most all of the defensive draft picks and FA acquisitions except maybe Barham who I hadn't really looked at.

I did not think any of them offered immediate positive impact type performance that I thought was needed for this short opportunity window while Dak is playing well and not too old yet.

There was and continues to be an extreme sense of urgency to win now. NOT wait on picks to develop.
Let me say that again. NOT wait on picks to develop.

Those that feel ALL rookies need 3 years before ever contributing to success are the fans here that I strongly oppose.

And here we are.
AGAIN.

 

[Flamma]

There is not a single fanbase that doesn't expect their team to beat a winless team with an undrafted free agent starting at QB. Even fanbases of winless teams expect to win.

 

[MarkP88]

I had convinced myself they'd win handily last night. I have no idea what the hell I was smoking.

You can’t play that card! The idiots that don’t listen deserve salt poured into the wound. The same ones that tout that Prescott is a top 5 QB but can’t move the ball against a Tampa 2 defense.

 

[JonesBoys]

Tampa Bay came in with the worst offense in the NFL and the Cowboys defense made them look like the greatest show on turf.
This has to be the most gutless leaderless team I have ever seen.

 

[CWR]

I felt pretty confident going into the game, but as soon as I heard JPJ was out my confidence took about a 25% hit. Its not necessarily that I expected such a massive impact from him but more so getting one of our scrub cbs off the field.

 

[jgboys1]

We have a lot of delusional fans on this board.

They are easy to pick out because they have Dak holding the Lombardi trophy as their avatar.

 

[Gambit]

No, its far and above THE worst defense in the league.

18.8% missed tackle rate last night
Over 100 yards from missed tackles alone last night
A secondary that looks completely lost. Can't consistently stop the run. 150 yards a game they give up.

Zero interceptions only team
Only 5 sacks on year

Prior to last 2 years specifically, Idve said a professional team would have to actually try to be this bad on defense.

If Todd Bowles gets fired, he needs to be our DC. He prefers his ice cream with sprinkles, M&M's, butterscotch, not just vanilla!

In his defense, there were a number of us who said all summer that the "changes" that took place during the offseason, was not going to make this team a consistent winner. Several people were convinced these changes would be our saving grace and argued that point all summer. Now, you have fans here falling all over their swords in disbelief on how this team is the same it's always been.

You mean they traded the only pass rusher and let the other one go to Seattle and now they can’t get to the QB?

Who knew….

Good thing we got all of those old players and draft picks…
