THE EYE IN THE SKY DON'T LIE. We all saw his lackluster play. The entire group in fact. Joe Thomas was the best of the worst.

we like handicaps at LB. Hammy, glass neck and the gimp.

Lee is still our best LB and it’s not even close, can’t wait for the 4 games he’ll come back for before getting hurt again. LVE might never be the same as his rookie year and Smith is always out of position

all in all...a trash unit. Time to bring Francis Bernard up.

For the record Jaylon Smith is my least favorite player on the team... clear eye view my behind.

...in hindsight, I thought Jaylon was worth waiting for. Seemed like freak athlete. Boy, was I wrong.

Man...I’m embarrassed for supporting Dlaw when he held out. I didn’t mind him holding out, he was tagged and never once complained but I severely over estimated his worth.

I was also really happy for Jaylon but thought the contract was premature and Jerry was just trying to flex his wallet muscle in front of zeke. Then Jaylon not only became one of the biggest dbags on the team but one of the most over rated.

I am 0-2 in supporting those two clowns.

Another fun one....taking Murray at 17 is ridiculous because he wont start.

LOL.

Or it's an undervalued position and doesnt matter.

Not sure why this is a topic in that case. We should be fine.

Safeties dont matter. LBs dont matter.....

Yeah....they kinda do folks.

I think the answer to our line backing problems is steroids.

I feel like the answer to most problems is steroids.

Wait but he makes a lot of tackles.

He is solid.

Could swear I heard that around here not all that long ago.

not from I. Dude has never been a good tackler or shown any instincts. Relies on his speed.

until Jerry is taking a dirt nap, this wont change.

First, Jaylon may be the most over hyped guy at his position that the Cowboys ever had. Maybe more than Hollywood Henderson, but at least he made plays and was actually very good,all for a short time. When is it fair to say the Jaylon Smith story should be over here in Dallas? What has he actually done to make plays in crucial moments? Lets have this debate. Should we trade him..cut bait?LVE...CAN WE ALL just be real and say this is a failed venture? He is always hurt...he is Sean Lee junior and that is not a good thing. Can we all admit our linebackers stink? LVE when healthy is our best..but key phrase...when healthy. Lee is all but toast. and when Thomas is your best LB, you know we got issues at that position. When is it time to start Francis Bernard and go with new blood?Lets have a real conversation about this.

I wanted us to draft Rashaan Evans over LVE

KEEP Francis Bernard and build Around him. AGREE.

Not sure about building around a dude that hasnt taken a snap yet....

But I DO want to see him on the field sooner than later.

If he is simply overmatched in the league, fine, but I'd like to see it...because frankly, I'm having trouble trusting this staff and what it is they are doing on several levels.

JakeCamp12 · Sep 14, 2020

For being such a big dude, Jaylon does not like to stick his nose into contact. He is always tacking from behind or on the side of the player. Looks like Tarzan, plays like Jane.

Rayman70 · Sep 14, 2020

its clear as day, the entire defense is horrid. Just play the youngsters at this point. Cut Poe...he was awful. Aldon was good...and did Griffen even play? lol.. and our dt's were MIA. Our db's , same thing. Imagine what Atlanta will do this week. Wont be a pretty sight.

Experiment is over, its a big fail. This team needs to spend a high pick on a linebacker.

Lber, DT, DE, Safety, Corner. Basically taking BPA available at these positions the first 3 rounds of the next two drafts. We really cant afford to take any more offensive players in the first two rounds.

bodi · Sep 14, 2020

I wanted Darius Leonard called for him early the year we drafted LVE

the 36th overall we could traded down from 19th overall

or picked up Terrell Edmunds

...lol... no biggie bro. I'll admit I was on the fence with Dlaw getting that contract. He only had one good year under his belt, big red flag. Adding to the fire with holding out. Jerry, just cant see straight with all that money.

Too worried about his pretty looks. Doesn't want to get dirty. Guys wears sunglasses at interviews. Cares more about how he looks then getting the job done.

yeah...I am quickly starting to not trust this staff. Bernard ...yoru right about him. If he isnt ready, lets find out now, put him in. We have nothing to lose the way I see it. The group we have now cant play...they just cant.

Redsfan_83 · Sep 14, 2020

we rolled the dice for both, and they came up snake eyes each time

I'm afraid the All 22 is going to look really bad. Bob Sturm must be licking his chops.
