Are we the worst team in the game?

Well...

We did lose to the Jets last year. I wouldn’t feel good going into a game against the Jets right now and I thought going into the season the Jets were clearly the worst team in the league. Now that we’ve been decimated with injuries, I think we probably are the worst team in the league.

Based on the game this past Sunday it would be hard to argue the Cowboys aren't the worst team, but we need to see if that is confirmed over a few more weeks.

We couldn't beat them last year with all of our starters.
Obviously every year and every game is different, so that alone doesn't mean anything. What matters is this year, and what happened Sunday indicates things are pretty bad.

People need to chill.

We are terrible because of injuries. Without injuries we are a 6-9 win team. Smart moves, drafting and ridding ourselves of bad contracts go a long way.

When healthy, this isn’t a bottom 5 team in the league

Yeah, no. The injury excuse doesn't excuse the atrocious defense, which is mostly healthy. We weren't a good team week one, and we are the worst team now. Granted, if completely healthy, we could have beaten Washington. Hooray.

we have the worst DC in the game that has a history to justify the ranking
our OL has problems at every position
our RB has cashed in so and is now sandbagging or fumbling (stop getting high before the game jerk)
our starting QB is DiNucci (without us would have been undrafted) with no real backup
our DL has no DT's
our LB crew is old (Lee), made of glass (Lee, LVE) or overpaid/inconsistent (Smith)
we really dont have nfl quality safeties and probably worst duo in game
one starting cb is injured, the other may be released in next 2 days
our ST has a returner (Pollard) that somehow managed to down a kickoff from of the endzone at the 1.
we have no GM- who would be working on getting a new DC. Instead our owner backs the DC because the HC owes him.

our owner is in Al Davis late stages of senility-(hiring a HC after 1 meeting because he doesnt like to interview). His son is a buffoon. Jerry doesnt care if the team wins-only that he wins. Until Jerry retires/sells/dies we will stay like Oakland in Al's late years (a constant dumpster fire)

now I'm reading our joke of a coaching staff (minus a GM) told our senile owner about a 4 year plan. It looks like he's buying it. What then senile Jerry? Just keep blaming/replacing players because u dont want to interview?

this team as bad as it is may actually get worse and stay that way until Jerry is gone. Hes been horrible for 30 years (SB were all Jimmy)-why would that change now as Jerry just gets more senile?

Bum Bright really screwed this team up
The team being fielded on Sunday is probably 32 of 32 however the injuries are a major reason.
I am not a Dallas fan but an impartial observer and like to offer the following positional ratings with the full roster:
QB. B+
RB. B
WR. A
TE. C
OL. B-

DL. D
LB. C
CB. C
S. C

Kicker. B
Punter. D

A 8-8 to 10-6 roster but the major issue is the big $$$ guys are vastly overpaid (Elliot, Prescott, Lawrence, Smith, Cooper, etc.) that limits the ability to stock support positions and there is no way around it for 2-3 years

We are, but our offense when healthy is fine. We just have an unbelievable lack of talent/ effort /smarts on defense in the front 7 at this point. Then we have to address the safety positions. Our CB's will be fine when healthy but really the only group with any promise at this point in time.

Offensive turnovers are a coaching problem in my opinion in which coaching needs to be addressed as well.

It is like arguing about whose the least ugly woman. When you stink, you stink.

I do think we’re the worst because of our awful D. And I also think Zeke is getting too much blame. His second fumble was caused because he chose to punish that DT with his right shoulder. Zeke got paid and he still doles out punishment whenever he can. He just needs to address the fumbling issues and stop pressing. Backs like Zeke who run to contact will
fumble more because they are constantly fighting and drawing more contact.

Who’s worse than Dinucci starting in the league?

Can we even score with him?

Yes, without a doubt we are the worst team in the NFL right now.

Jets would put 30 on these beta males.

When you have as many injuries as the Cowboys especially at the qb position, we are most likely #32 in the power rankings....if not now, very soon. :)

Gotta roll with the punches. We are going to get a really good draft pick this spring. Most likely we will be 1st or 2nd pick. jmho if the trend continues. I don't see it changing.
not really, there are about 7 teams ahead of us 1 0 wins, and several with 1 win.
And if jerry doesnt tank on purpose, we could wind up with 4 wins or so, which isnt high enough to get a top pick.
We cant even tank good lol.

After we get completely humiliated this week the answer will be self evident
