We're doomed, Cowboys fans. :(
I do not think we are doomed.

We have to get well in the off season and bring in some new faces.

Of bigger significance is replacing Beasley in the offense..

finding a TE for DAK that is a receiving threat

and resigning our FA where possible.

I never really thought he was leaving.

Not after they went 9-2 at the end and won a playoff game.

It solidified the entire staff in the FOs eyes.

Everybody had to have learned alot this year.

Even Linehan and Garrett.

I remember when we were 3-4 and Jason said he wanted to fire Linehan but couldn't.

Between that idiot HC and his big chief pencil play drawing moron OC, they are both the living examples of the definition of insanity.... I'm going back to sleep now, nothing new to see here, we are a soup bowl of incompetence.

I wouldnt expect any change until at least after the pro bowl the "current staff" is heading up for the NFC. Although it wont surprise me if NOTHING happens after that now...

I posted yesterday that we would not see major changes. In my eyes Garrett would look terrible if he fired Linehan because of ignorant fans. So if true, this is a plus in my eyes. If Garret ultimately goes down, it should be his way.

The Rams managed to run it down our throats with the following OL (not to mention, CJ Anderson ran all over us):

LT Whitworth, 37 years old, 2nd round pick by Bengals, signed by Rams in 2017
LG Saffold, 30 years old, 2nd round pick by Rams in 2010
C Sullivan, 33 years old, 6th round by Vikings, signed by Rams in 2017
RG Blythe, 26 years old, 7th round pick by Colts in 2016, signed by Rams in 2017
RT Havenstein, 26 years old, 2nd round pick by Rams in 2015

Basically the opposite of our OL. Average age of 30. No 1st rounders. 3 of them were signed as free agents in 2017.

Meanwhile, we need all 25 year old 1st round picks and the best coaches to go with it or else we crumble to pieces.

True, but in fairness, that's a decent OL.

Further, as has been reported, the Rams coaching staff did a fantastic job in their game plan against us, using formations and motion to confuse the front 7, and get the LBs moving out of position. Also, our DL apparently had "tells" that gave the OL and coaches for the Rams an idea of our defensive calls on given plays. For example, based on where our DT might line up and how he used his hands in aligning, they could guess we were running a particular stunt, so they would audible to a run which could take advantage of us being out of position with a stunt.

We got outcoached Sat night. We can argue talent was a factor as well, but we got out coached.

I'm done... How is this possible ‍

I'm guessing they are thinking the broken down offensive line was the real problem since they couldn't control the game with the run. Get the O-line back in top shape will be their priority.
