We are still in the thick of the NFC Least race, but what’s the incentive? This team is going nowhere.

What do we need to do to get things rolling in the right direction? I’m at a loss

This team is a dumpster fire. I dont think anything can turn it around. Our best hope for the future is the high first round draft choice we will have.

FIre Nolan

Trade Cooper

Sign Kaep

Start Martin at RT

PAY DAK

If dak couldn't get us past .500 last season and he was able to only win one game by luck this season, how is that the solution? He's a good player, but he should've taken the deal that he was given. Can we afford to give him more where we can't afford to plug other holes that need to be plugged in?

Whatever the Seventh Circle of Football Hell is, that. Some say New York. I may beg to differ.

What’s bad is that even if we end up with a premium draft pick, I have no faith that the FO will select the “right” guy. There are just so many holes and question marks on this team. There are too many inflated contracts on this team that we cannot get out of. It’s scary

Trade Cooper, Zeke, Lawrence and J. Smith. Don’t resign any free agents, including Dak. Fire every coach and the GM. Draft Trevor Lawrence. Suck for the next 3 or so years and stack up top 5 picks. See what happens in about 4 years.

Agreed, nowhere, like the past 25 years. Fact. Until Jerry resigns. That fool has to realize that he's the problem for the failures of team. Man up and make the move. Insanity at it's best.

Till then we go in circles. 25 years ladies and gents. Zip, zero, nada.

You have to fire the DC. I’m not of fan of booting coaches mid season, but this just has to happen. You put your top players on blast and start benching them to send messages. Also, Noochie is not a NFL QB, you need to acquire a better backup. Something crazy should be done, move an DL to OL and vice versa. Possibly move a LB to DE. Something crazy to visibly show the team this coaching staff is desperate. That’s one thing I just don’t see, desperation...

All we can do is hope Jerry hires a GM and get out of the way.

That's the problem, any GM looking at that team (and lack of CAP Space) would say we bite the bullet for a couple of years until we can do something with Zeke, Cooper and Lawrence's contracts.

Do not make matters worse by restructuring the contracts of players already showing health concerns.

I'm for tag and trading Dak, because we arent going to compete and we need to improve that D-LINE and back up O-LINE (hopefully elongate the careers of Smith, Martin and Collins).

But we wont, we'll pay Dak, restructure the poor contracts as we dont have any cap space for the next two seasons and pray that we can draft at least two NFL ready defensive stars.

But the subsequent rounds will all be early round picks too, which could help, and if we were to trade away certain underachievers, we could possibly gain better positions and/or more picks...............What am I saying, we don't have a genius HC to carry out anything like that.

I don’t know. Jets gave the Bills a fight today. That’s more that can be said about our team. If the Cowboys keep playing like this, they won’t win another game.

I wouldn't mind seeing that entire O-line replaced, after what they did to Dalton, you cant trust a QB behind it. Its not like they were good with Dak in the back anyway.

Why are you using a first round on an OT. Certainly look at improving the O-LINE depth as the injuries are a concern, but not first round.

We need D-Line help. The No-Namers ran for 208 yards against us whilst going into the game with a league worst 82 yard (average per game).

Saying that i'd still draft a QB, if the player they want is available and JJ concedes that we arent going to compete in the next 2/3 years...otherwise i'd pick Micah Parsons as he has speed, pass rush and stops the run.
