Someday, we'll learn what really happened behind closed doors.
Until then, I feel like we're missing something.

I was tough on him but he clearly is showing some talent now in Miami.
He may have been a headcase and had an issue with Marinelli, but sometimes, you cant be sooooo stubborn with guys like this.
It's not going to be a good look if Taco finds himself in another city. That's a direct reflection on how maybe it's time Marinelli needs to move on. I wouldn't get too excited yet with Taco. He could nosedive shortly.
But if he keeps this up, not a good look for Sir Rod.
Taco has 3 sacks in 4 games with Miami. Quinn has 6 sacks in 5 games with Dallas.
Pretty clear who I'd rather have....
They definitely cut him too soon. I always thought the guy could play. Rod clearly is a meathead judge of talent but the reality is Taco must have been a terrible clubhouse guy. That is the only explanation.
Sure, try to make it an 'either/or' so you can try to feel better. Truth is, it's not.
and yet there was no mutterings or evidence from the other players that he was a terrible anything.
Don't agree, but hey! how much fun would it be if we always did?
I don't know, maybe because of his preseason play?
Blossom is a strong word, but he is clearly better than Hyder and Armstrong, and that was obvious in preseason.

Tell me where it wasn't possible to keep both guys? What is it that you're "disagreeing" with?
Not looking to start an argument, just trying to understand your mindset and reasoning.
Which means either the coaches are idiots (not an unheard of opinion here) or there were personality conflicts.
Either way it's obvious the coaches didn't want him in Dallas, and since we're not on the practice field/locker room/meetings with him, you can pick either one....
It is, or rather was, to keep both, I never said it wasn't. But one less DE means space for one more DT, or S, or whatever, and DT is in need of an upgrade more than having one more DE on the roster.
Just a choice by the team, which I happen to agree with...
Exactly. Some one in Big D was not a fan. They would rather see Crawford get washed out every snap.

He wasn't terrible but he wasn't better than Dorance Armstrong, which is the whole thing. If Armstrong was getting 50 reps a game in Miami he would have better stats than Taco.
And DLaw said before he was cut that "the training wheels are off and he needs to be on his own". Then after Taco was cut he said they didn't have to carry him anymore. There is clearly more to the story we don't know, but the players did comment.
Sorry if this sounds personal, it isn't intended to be, but that sounds like homer talk. "Whatever they do, that's the right thing by me"
There's certainly no substance behind it.
