This feels pretty similar, we lost Romo for 7 games that season until he came back and got reinjured, but during that stretch he was out our offense was horrible, and we finished 4-12. I don't see a different outcome for this season

We'll be 0-8, no point in salvaging the season. Tank it and trade the #1 overall.

We started off 2-0 in 2015 before Romo got injured.

We scored 3 points last night.

This is not like 2015.

Need to go like 1-15 or 2-14 to get Young or Stroud

I say its not over until it is and not going back a decade to make point. this is a better defense, solid Sts, no need to throw in the towel. each years one off and 16 games will stand onits own.

17 games is tough for me to get used to also....

But yeah, like 2020, we will encounter teams that have lost their QB and are tanking and we will smoke them.....and Jerry and his kid can continue to swear how close they are.

Now begins once again the argument should we tank. If we can’t win a couple of games before Dak returns then I’m all for the big suck

Daks under a LTD mlytos of gaurateed money and NT and FT cluses..hes goig to be here another year or two..so tanking for QB is not smart..you go fill another important spot like OL or perhaps another position of actual need.. wake up Daks deal makes him our guy another season or 2 you cant tank to get a QB yet.. no tanking ever,,

if this happens naturally, sure maybe a qb falls to you you do that..if not just like most drafts you take BPA as to current needs.

If we're in a position to draft a top qb next draft, we'd be dumb not to. I'm sure some team would trade for him

I’m feeling more like Sept. 5, 2000.

Not going to happen. Jerry is a long way from admitting the Dak error. Drafting a QB in round 1 would be akin to admitting he botched the position. He will ride Dak and keep trying to shuffle the players and coaches around him.

The Cowboys schedule appears to be weaker and the defense is better. We can go 4-4 In those games without Dak. Tampa is probably the best team in the NFC.

Not purposefully tanking. sorry but NO..BTW those QBOTF dont always pan out .. you play 17 then see how it falls to you and go from there. BTW the legue is watching now see MIA etc you try and tank on purpose they might pull that pick from you ..they decided they don't want to see that nonsense and i agree with them

Im wathicmg lance and ouv and not impressed with these QB Picks of the future LOL

False. 2015, we won opening night. Looked pretty good. The Romo injury was what derailed the season. This season is completely different. This was the dark days of Campo. Absolutely nothing on offense. Dak injury is not the reason. Jerry and this front office destroyed any chance we had this offseason by getting rid of talent and not replacing it.

"We like our guys".

Does anyone have faith we can actually draft a QB? Remember the dark days between Aikman and Romo? That was all Jerry. Romo was nothing more than a fluke. He wasn't even drafted. But Parcells and Payton saw something in him. And even after all that, it took Quincy getting arrested to keep him on the roster. There was no plan by this front office with him.

Dak was not drafted to be our guy. They lucked into him and that he stepped in for Romo and we had a #1 seed run in 2016. And some other good years.

Don't forget, this front office really wanted to trade up for Paxton Lynch that same 2016 draft.

This franchise is doomed.

If Rush can beat the Vikings he can beat Detroit, Giants, Chicago, and Washington. Yes he can lose to them as well.
still rather have more experienced for 6-7 game stretch after cinci given the OL even further weakened with CM ankles etc...I DO NOT trust MOORE..
