Do you believe in this core?

i am ready to hear jerry talk about his disappointed but how the cowboys only were bad because of the circumstance (injures, covid, training camp, new coach staff, etc) and how much talent cowboys have next season every year the same thing with the talent. i dont think the cowboys do have that much talent! i have no faith in hardly any of it. zack martin, dak prescott, demarcus lawrence is all do i really think are dependible. lael collins if he is healthy and maybe tyron but tyron is always hurt and way passed his prime. i give credit to 2 player for showing out this season...schultz and donovan wilson but i can not say i really believe in them.

all they invest in wr and i do not really trust any of them. amari disappearing, gallup and lamb with dropping.

zeke and pollard? both could be replace with a late round pick or udfa.

the entire defense exept for dlaw, donovan wilson, randy gregory, and young player like diggs and gallimore can go and i would be happy. they all stink and need replacing.

jaylon smith is the #1 person who have to go. not just because he is awful at football but because he is one of the leader on defense and i do not want his stupid non sense to get into any one else on the roster.

i have said it for a long time now that this core is rotten and i do not think any thing will magicly change it. i think this team is needing a totle rebuild like the browns or dolphins did.

i think jerry is very overrating how good this roster is and if he keep doubling down on it he is just waisting his time and all the fans. i just do not see a super bowl core here at all and they have done nothing else but prove me right every season.

Does that include the guys on IR?.....Then, yes.

The defense needs an overhaul starting with the DC. If that's not the focus starting with the bus tide to airport, then this team is toasted marshmallow.

Which core? The one where Jerry thinks he needs a HC who stand on the sidelines and doesnt steal the spotlight from him?

Yep. We got it.

Offensively absolutely. On defense we need a core still. Diggs and Donvan Wilson, Gregory, Dlaw and Aldon are all pretty good players. Draft defense early and often.

The offense has some talent, and has proven effective with a good OL. Too bad the Cowboys OL is in serious decline. I'll take our 3 WR's any day.

The defense is an unmitigated disaster. It is miles away from being a championship caliber unit. The team could use every single draft pick on defense, and still not have a true contender.

Don't get me started on fatso....

Big changes are needed on both sides of the ball. And with the staff. And in the front office. That’s all I know.

You know more than most here.
But CZ wouldn't be the beautiful melting pot of shared opinions that it is if it didn't have at least a small measure of honesty.

Albeit few and far between.

We have the talent on offense with Dak at QB and our full complement of starters on the OL but we have virtually nothing on defense. Diggs has some potential but the overall talent on defense stinks!

Year after year, fans thinking all we need is to sign this guy, draft that guy and we'll SB contenders. Wash, rinse, repeat.

The organization is dysfunctional at its core.

Nope. We’re rudderless and our biggest contracts are going to declining (but good) players.

Honestly, no.

We have a lot of good players that are good guys but I don't see the killer instinct, competitive drive from anyone in this group. And that was with Garrett at the helm too. I thought that was him, but it's obviously the culture in the lockerroom and organization at large. This team is content to get press, get stats, and then go home in early January.

I think you have Dak and Zack and that's it.

The offense will be just fine with Dak and a healthy OL. The defense needs at least a half dozen new pieces though.
