Oh god!!!! You watch too much CNN!!! Is this our final football season?

And yah, a top 5 rookie can definitely come in and do it. In fact, with a top 5 pick they could get a stud CB AND a starting safety lets say.

How about starting next year with a secondary of Diggs, Top 5 corner, 37th pick safety, Wilson? I really like that. And who cares about NOW anyway? Think long term and think SB!!

Stop waving your pompoms for once. Its about the team not your personal temporary enjoyment.

Do you feel comfortable with this coaching staff long term? I am not seeing it being part of the long-term solution...

Watch too much CNN? I've LOST 2 people from COVID and lost someone due to depression...life happens. I get it. But I'm trying to get you to understand something outside of your selfish view. This team will probably get a top 5 pick regardless so it doesn't matter if we cheer for them or cheer against them they are going to do whatever they want. Get over yourself man.

No, not from what we have seen. Hard to expect them to coach up this injured trash. I do like Moore, but I wont shed a tear of any of them get booted.

Sorry to hear all that. Lets hope things get better for you.

But its not about me, its about whats best for this team. Getting a top 5 pick is more important then a couple meaningless wins.

I love how there's 3 players with top 8 level grades and the cowboys are eyeing to finish 4th

This team can't even tank correctly :facepalm:

Doesnt change the fact that this team sucks and isnt going anywhere. Commanders are putting this team together properly. They take lineman with top 5 picks instead of RB's. Gibson was the best RB on the field today and they got him in the 3rd round. In fact, the way I saw it, Zeke was the 5th best RB today.
I didn’t even know Zeke played today. It look like he was more concern about eating his Turkey dinner after the game than playing.

Here is the real problem..

Everyone makes mistakes.. Hiring McCarthy was a mistake.. I knew it immediately but hey.. Jones’s didn’t.


The real problem comes when they don’t make a quick decision to move on.. They will keep give him more time which will only cost us more seasons.

There is a lot of built in excuses for McCarthys failure but how many of those excuses had anything to do with decisions we have seen this year?


We will waste more time and years because it’s how they operate.



Trevor Lawrence was our 1 way ticket back to glory but they will make too many conservative moves to ever get us out of this mediocre cycle.

all up to the part about Lawerence,

we weren't going to lose less then one game. The jest and jags have that on lock..so fields does it for you? at best your argument holds water if we would have been 3rd and traded down for many valuable picks..actually sort of still in play, after this disaster tonight

im playing gilbert and nooch and start benching starters, full tank the rest of the way..

so again WE WERE NEVER GOING TO BE BAD ENOUGH TO GET LAWERENCE at ebst #2 but that also was a stretch we were destined for 3..maybe that still happens, trade down get Trask and a boat load of defenders,.

and pollard was better , seriously after Erving and Martin VERY EARLY when out and all the rest of the 3rd string OL came in against the DL , what exactly were they going to do?

the Ol was a disaster all year and all the rest of the injurys aside we lost this game because of coaching, horrible coaching, Not zeke..please come of the ridiculous narrative somehow zeke was the reason 2020 was a failure..

Agree but Zeke has also contributed to this disaster of a season with his crucial fumbles and poor productivity. This whole season has been a big failure.

He lost this game today, I don't need to explain why, you saw the game. He needs to fess up and take full blame for this loss or he will LOSE his players. If he hasn't already!!! Very disappointed! He shows zero trust in his players by going for it deep in his own territory, twice!!! We were in the game and he didn't have his teams back!

Or he trusts his players too much that they'll get the first down or hold to a field goal if they don't

I would try to move mountains to get him.

It would take some behind the scenes shenanigans going on with Lawrence and his agent as well as the Cowboys but I think there is a path to getting Lawrence to Dallas.

I think Darnold is so young and they know they have put nothing around him and could be sold on getting multiple picks to build around Darnold.

If I’m Dallas I would trade CeeDee Lamb if need be to move up or whatever else they want on this roster besides Martin.

If its that important why do you think teams like the Jaguars are getting top 5 picks perennially and they still suck?

We don’t draft top 5 perennially.

when was the last time they had a great qb? That’s been their biggest issue. Which goes back to dak. Sign him.

There is no tanking in Dallas while Cap'n J-hab is around. We just suck.

McCarthy is a tank wagon. he is a big part of this losing. Keeping him around and paying the qb is going to create lots of tanking situations in the future.
Great for this season... but has me worried about the future and Big Mac as a HC...

Thank goodness because the top 5 every year has busts in it.....you do know that there's a big chance that the best player in next years draft is taken outside of the top 5....

Its still early on the 2019 and '20 drafts but you see what happened in 2018? Baker Mayfield, Barkley, Darnold, Ward and Bradley Chubb were the top 5 picks. Outsidse of it you have Quenton NElson who's arugably the best player in the draft....Minkah Fitzpatrick, Tremaine Edmunds, Lamar Jackson......Nick Chubb and Darius Leonard were 2nd round picks....

In 2017, Top 5 is Myles Garrett, the GREAT Mitchell Trubisky, Solomon Thomas, Leonard Fournette and Corey Davis......outside of it? Christian McCaffrey, Marshon Lattimore, Deshaun Watson, Marlon Humphrey, Tredavious White, TJ Watt....Buddha Baker in the 2nd round, Dalvin Cook in the 2nd round, Juju Smith Schuster in the 2nd, Alvin Kamara in the 3rd, Cooper Kupp in the 3rd, Chris Godwin in teh 3rd, Kevin Golladay in the 3rd, James Conner in the 3rd, Eddie Jackson in the 4th......

I'm not even going to talk about 2016....we already know Dak Prescott was the best of that draft..........

This is what y'all covet though. These top 5 picks.......

I think there is going to be a lot of tanking situations in the future with how I feel about this coaching staff/HC.

Great so we will have a better shot to take those players then 27 other teams in every round. Simple math.
