The Rams are a model for the Cowboys

I'm sure the Packers would jump at that opportunity. :rolleyes:
We’d need to throw in some draft picks and or players. They have their future QB. They actually plan for the future with another 1st round QB in waiting.

I’m thinking someone like a Carr or Cousins might be interested . A chance to play with a better supporting cast on offense. Both teams getting a new coach might take the draft picks .

You're all for it now. And when it doesn't works you'll blame Jerry like you never liked the idea

OMG, how could anyone blame Jerry?

He's been doing things his way, for 26 years, playing fantasy football with his son and hasn't come close to winning anything.

It couldn't possibly be Jerry's fault. :rolleyes:

After Joey Galloway and Roy Williams trade fiasco, I think the Jones boys made a conscious decision not to do any mega trades anymore.
Frankly, I was surprised we actually did the Cooper trade when it was announced.

The Rams still gave up a ton to get Stafford. Obviously seems worth it if you win the SB, but I'm not convinced Stafford is that far ahead of Goff.

Hopefully Jethro will pay attention to how they turned this around by making bold moves in FA and blockbuster trades not satisfied with just a playoff team.

They took a chance mortgaging the future to win now. This is definitely a model our owner could follow . And could be the best path to bringing in more talent to get over the hump, now.
That model is not always a good one my friend. If Dallas does this amd it doesn't work then most will just over comain about that.

Well.....they have an excellent coach. And they have a QB that reads the field well and can make all the throws.....we have neither

Again ill say, its about being consistent enough to put yourself in position to win. If you get to the conference championship game every year chances are your going to win a SB. The rams expectation is to win a SB, the cowboys have become satisfied with just making the NFC title game. thats the difference.

The rams play in a tough division. We play in a division that is poor and can't take advantage.

How can they be satisfied with making the NFC title game when they have not made it that far in 26 years.:huh:

No, the Cowboys are just satisfied with making the playoffs and maybe getting lucky enough to win a wildcard game every now and then. That is totally acceptable to Jerry and his idiot boy, if it was not acceptable they would have changed the way they operate the team over the past 26 years.

Just saying

In my opinion they aren't and we shouldn't follow their path (risking your future for imminent success). Yes I know, after 26 years any way to win a superbowl is the right way, I won't argue that. But in my opinion I'd rather start from scratch, build a good team and then have many winning years in a row. I mean KC made it to their conference GC a couple of times now and won a SB, that's what I mean by success.

At the moment this won't happen though. I mean we have just as many highly paid players as the Rams, if not more, but ours can't produce. And the worst thing, we're stuck with a few of them. So that rebuilding process won't start any time soon. I had high hopes in 2016, that should have been the start to a great run that lasted 5 or more years. But as it turned out, those promsing players are either worn out and done or weren't any good in the first place.

It just sucks to be in this situation. In a hole dug so deep, that even by jumping you can't reach the edge, everything just looks a bit darker than it probably is. But to be honest, another winning reg season will only hurt us further, because then the pain won't be big enough for the FO to do something radical. I think we need another season like '89 in order to turn this (not sinking but) leaking ship around.

We have an Aaron Donald on our team named Micah Parsons. We need a Stafford, Von Miller and a Mcvay to put us over the hump.
Doesn't matter the players a team has, what matters is the coaching staff. Stafford was 12 years in Detroit & accomplished nothing.

McVay has taken the Rams to the SB twice now in his tenure w/two different quarterbacks. Jimmy G's been to the SB & one win from making it again. That doesn't mean he's a great quarterback. He has a great coaching staff. He's also done in San Fran lol.

Just be thankful we don't have to hear about how the team that kicked us to the curb in the first round at home made it all the way to the SB and won it. Like the Giants did in 2007.

Tiny miracles.

Very lofty for Beast Parsons. Beast Parson seems the favorite on this rookie contract. Can't dispute. He is currently outperforming his contract. Just wait until that rookie contract expires. A 180 on the love will begin. Wait for it.
