:facepalm:DLaw has been getting double and triple teamed because no one respects the other Rush men. Once Quinn comes back you’ll see a better player. Not sure if you remember but Ware didn’t do much his last 2 years for the same reason. Once he went to Denver, he dominated.

DEs don't get great pass rush numbers without some rush up the middle. Cowboys have zero sacks the first two games from the DTs, and only 11 all last year, and Crawford had half of those (5.5).

Now Woods is out, really curious if Hill will get a start or play significant snaps this week, what better time than playing a sorry team that has to go on the road after a 43-0 shellacking?

Good point. Perfect situation to get Hill in there and try to get some confidence.

Stephen maybe smoking form the same pipe as Randy. Last I heard he hasn't even filled for reinstatement yet. (anyone know otherwise?)
And that process can take 6-8 weeks so if he has any plans to play this year he better get his butt in gear.

If we're going to be patient with Gregory, why not Irving as well? This team needs David Irving way more than Gregory. The middle of the defense needs more push.

Completely different scenarios.

Gregory fails drugs tests but does everything else as requested by coaches and stays in excellent shape when he is out.

Irving was difficult to coach and was in terrible physical condition the last time we saw him practice.

Looks like that article is from August 5th and I think it was correct, he hadn't filed by then. I thought I heard he had filed a few weeks ago, at least I hope so.

The original reports that Gregory was about to file for reinstatement were in July. Then the report came out in August that he actually hadn't done it yet. I haven't seen any news since.

You mean the guy who is getting his legs back under him after not having training camp, OTA’s?


Yeah that guy who held off on his surgery to hold the team hostage for his mega deal.

Remember? He could have been at all of those if he didn't play games with the team about his surgery.

Gregory Drafted in 2015 and thus far has played 28 games and missed 38 games. Should he return when is the next suspension? I don't wish ill on him but on the other hand he can't be relied on. With Gregory you have to worry if he were to return does he screw us over in the middle of the season leaving the team scrambling to replace him once again. Myself I just would not take that gamble on him


His talent is too great and investment too high to give up on him when there's zero negative to keeping him around. As long as we have him under contract there's zero reason to boot him.

If Gordon is reinstated, there should be no reason Gregory isn't. Why its taking so long is plain stupid.

He smokes weed big deal. He hasn't been accused of rape or anything!!!!! But that guy is still playing this past week.

Telling you the NFL is bogus when it comes to how they deal with players and their off the field antics.

Look at the NHL, a player in Washington got suspended for 3 games for getting caught snorting coke!!!! Coke people!!!! 3 games of an 82 game schedule. But the NFL decides to suspend Gregory and others for simply smoking weed indefinitely. Its a joke and NFL players should sue the NFL for taking their right to work away. In a 16 games schedule it should be a slap on the wrist for weed with counselling. Crack down on steroids and personal conduct incidents like Rape, Abuse, Murder etc.... Not smoking weed.

He was drafted in 2015 and can't be counted on. He had 6 sacks last year sorry but he was not setting the NFL on fire. It is Dallas call not mine, all I can say is he has been a waste of time and I would not bring him in and count on him, if you do and he screws up yet again now it creates problems because you are forced to look on the streets to find someone. I think he has been given ample opportunity and has failed over and over.

He used his health for leverage you’d do the same.

Studgory is the key to defeating Brady in the Super Bowl.

I've said it before and I'll say it again - wish RG all the best, but I'm tired of the here-one-day-out-the-next roller coaster.

He's an experiment that hasn't turned out well, time to move on...

All he needs is one game changing sack on Brady in the Super Bowl to justify the draft pick

he just said when “quinn and Gregory are back, they’re both true RDEs that will help us”. Just now on the fan.
Never a fan of Gregory.
Yet, he on defense could put us over the top.
N.O., L.A. and Vikings and Hawks stand in the way.
Let OC. and Pats get bloodied.
We can meet and greet both.
