Dallas Cowboys are the youngest team in the NFL; when will youth movement pay off?

Qb? Guess you aren't sold on dak?

I can't slip anything past you.

 

[Jipper]

I can't slip anything past you.

Well you could have been referring to the backup situation as well...but that's easier to deal with than a starter.

Out of curiosity what would dak need to do to get you past your concern?

Billy Beane, general manager of MLB’s Oakland A’s and protagonist of Michael Lewis’s Moneyball, described the issue succinctly in an interview with the Financial Times a while back.

”Nothing strangulates a sports club more than having older players on long contracts,” explains Beane, “As they become older, the risk of injury becomes exponential. It’s less costly to bring [on] a young player. If it doesn’t work, you can go and find the next guy, and the next guy. The downside risk is lower, and the upside much higher.”

Awesome!,,, &,,,I always kinda' enjoyed WATCHING that rapid fire MONEYBALL DUDE on my T.V.

Retire.

QB depth is nice but hard to get. The Cowboys are like just about every other team in the league. They can't win with their backup QB.

 

[Jipper]

Retire.

Come on you can do better than that.

So SEZ' yer' last hairy legged cross dressing dates TOO!,,,I'll wager a fat wad upon

uh oh
here it comes...

young requires better coaching. our achilles heel to date. hoping Richard, rod's replacement, and lal do a better job than their predecessors. I suspect they will. linehan will be given autonomy to scheme the offense instead of just running garrett's inane plays.

 

[DiResta]

Come on you can do better than that.

just fyi since you are a newer member
@Risen Star is not particularly fond of young Dakota
he is also quite enamored with Mr. Wentz

That's unfortunate, there's going to be a lot of crow for him to eat for the next decade

 

[glimmerman]

Good to be young.

Apparently the #7 C-rush hasn't filled the vacuum of yer' void with the departure of the #9,,,#9,,,#9,,,,,,Numberrrrr 9

That's straight from my draft guide.

Cmon, bro. Who doesn't like cheesesteaks?

 

[Cowboys22]

The only way this youth movement will ever pay off is if they get a head coach that is actually capable of winning a super bowl before all the guys are too old or gone. As long as Garrett stays, this group will be squandered as well. Yeah, he might average 9.5 wins a season and make the playoffs every other year but he will be out coached by the first team they play with a real QB and the season will be over. That seems to be good enough for the Jones’ and the apologist style fans.

 

[Jipper]

Cmon, bro. Who doesn't like cheesesteaks?

Well I guess you got me there

 

[Vinnie2u]

Ok so why does it take some teams 3 years to completely gut out their roster. Get rid of bad salaries and be competitive again. We’re going ion how many years with Garrett and it took this long to realize you weren’t going to win with veterans with bad contracts?

 

[Melonfeud]

Young doesn't always mean good.

Especially in the " wimmen dept",,,ya,Sure? You might " think" it's the next best thing to that single barrel updraft carburetor Henry Ford slapped on his MODEL-A's,,,till you actually gotta' hang around & listen to them fer' prolonged periods of time,,,it ain't all that GROOVY ,,,of that ,I assure YOU
