Injury bug keeps increasing and destroying Cowboys 2018 season

[jnday]

You think Tom Brady or Aaron Rodgers would play well behind this Oline and the lack of talent at WR and TE? Add in the poor playcalling, poor game decisions, injuries and suspensions. Do you honestly think Tom Brady or Aaron Rodgers would play well with this current team?

I know they would. They wouldn’t hold the ball and cause sacks and fumbles. Dak can not read the defenses to know where he needs to throw the ball, so he just holds it with a look of confusion on his face.

 

[jnday]

And why is that? Have you taken 5 minutes of your life to figure out why this team is struggling? Hmm? Or are you here like many others just to throw a hissy fit all day, every day?

It doesn’t take five minutes. It takes five seconds to see the poor coaching and horrible QB play. Everybody can see it except for you.

Garretts horrendous coaching has been in display for 8 years ...

How come Jerry can't see it ?

It's because this Garrett accomplice pulled the ol' switcheroo and gave Jerry the wrong pair of glasses back!

 

[blueblood70]

its already been said but THIS YEARS INJURYS HAVE NOT EFFECTED GAMES...last year vlid excuses with the suspension to Zeke, Tsmith twice, Irving twice, lee twice , bailey, Hitchens and many more all at the same time during at stretch run of 3 games in 11 days or whatever..it had huge effect..the Fredrick missing is sort of vailid only true piece that could have effected Line but really Looneys played well from what over seen, it s Williams and others falling apart at different parts of game..

Coaching, Penlatys, and Dak falling apart are the real reasons for us being 3-5 vs 5-3..

You act like those guys have been surrounded by the best offensive lines and had the best weapons in the game at their disposal. The fact of the matter is they both have had success with average lines, and a who's that rotation at WR and running back.

Brady sometimes has Gronk but otherwise makes his bones turning RBs into WRs and average dudes you've never heard of into household names. You don't even notice when he's not there. He would kill it here because he picks defenses apart mentally before the ball is even snapped. Better believe that Zeke and Beasley would likely have over 10 targets a game, dinking and dunking down the field. Difference would be the ball would get there as they came open instead of 2 seconds after, and it would hit them in stride.

Rodgers? Everything I said about Brady except he isn't as cerebral yet, can hurt you with his legs and has a cannon arm.

 

[PAPPYDOG]

But they've still got fans like this guy trying to make excuses for them. Failing miserably, but trying nonetheless.

He's on Dak's Payroll....couple of them here who are trying there best to tone down and shift the blame away from Dak.....simply wouldn't surprise me if Dak has his PR guy paying these guys for social media support.....and the "Hate" word thats there last resort when there cornered by reality....

We are no more hurt than any other team in the NFL. We just don't have the coaching to overcome ANY. Look at Philly last year. You think JG could have coached them through there injuries?

We don't have the players to overcome the coaching, even if every player were healthy.

In Hypothetical Land, play the full 16 game season out for the top teams with Linehan at OC, and Garrett at HC. How many losses do you think they would cost them? 4? 6?

 

[Pants]

It's Dak!
It's The defense (in past years)
It's Linehan
Let Garret be HC and give play-calling to someone else
It's injuries
(there are many that I left off of here)

It is the dysfunctional FO that keeps protecting their baby-boy for 10 years....if we get pounded by Philly (likely) on national TV, then Linehan should be the latest scapegoat and get canned, freeing up another 7 games for them to come up with yet another reason to keep Garrett past this year....see the trend? (1) Owner, (2) lack of "football" GM, (3) Garrett

This article doesn't include the loss of C Frederick. Injuries to key players keep multiplying that most likely have cemented a lost 2018 season.

Stop with this crap. Every team has to overcome injuries. The reason why 2018 is lost as has been the last 7 out of 9 years is Jason Garrett and his staff. Commanders have had way more injuries and yet are in 1st place currently. Eagles last year lose a lot of important players but win a super bowl. It’s always excuses for the Dallas Cowboys though. Zeke got suspended. Travis Fredrick is out so the whole o-line sucks. Ect... always excuses why this team underperforms

 

[JonesBoys]

Seriously?

Hey, we all know Garrett has not done a good job of surrounding himself with better coaches. He's even well known for making bad key game coaching decisions. But to state that key injuries to key players is not an excuse is just plain ignorant.

Are you saying key injuries and/or suspensions to players like Frederick, Sean Lee, David Irving, Gregory, Taco, Swaim, Austin, etc has not hurt this team this season?

What the hell has Randy Gregory ever done??? They have hardly ever had him on the field anyway over the last 4 years so shouldn’t they be used to it? LVE has been playing well so Lee isn’t as important and when he has played this year he hasn’t been the Sean Lee we know so stop with that old excuse. Austin?? You really using him as a big loss? He is a gadget player at best if losing him derails your team than you have problems. Taco has been average at best. The only big loss is Fredrick which the team should be able to overcome since they have invested a ton on the o-line. Besides Fredrick you’re acting like this team lost a bunch of all pros. I guess if it makes you feel better so you don’t have to deal with reality then yes this seasons failures are because of injuries. As was last years ect... damn injuries, if they didn’t just happen to the Cowboys man they would be in the super bowl

This team was not going to have a good season if everybody was healthy. That are bad with bad coaching and bad QB play.

Don't forget the GM. That's where it all starts. Until that changes, nothing will.

 

[JayFord]

The Commanders have 13 players on ir including 2 offensive line starters and theyre 5-3

We dont have the coaching to overcome this

 

[jazzcat22]

Are we really overexagerrating the injuries again? Frederick is a big deal but that is about all. Can't blame falling apart on Lee being out.

Just stop.

They were never were together to fall apart. So, yes, these injuries are nothing compared to all season long. It is up to the coaches for Garrett's "next man up" jargon to get them prepared. He fails every week.

We also don't have a football GM to hire good coaching to overcome this.

 

[Mr_437]

Facts: 2018 season was over before it started, when JG n Scotty was brought back mi hopes were dashed.

 

[Vegas_Cowboy]

It all starts at the top.

Jerry Jones absolutely, positively, completely, unequivocally SUCKS and has to hire a real football GM and step down!

Fixed it for ya.

Commanders are minus three starters on their OL and somehow could cope today.

Don't they understand how injuries work in the NFL????
