Straight cut him....

Why i am sure the new coaching staff will get the most from him

CowboyStar88 · Dec 22, 2019

Don’t know what happened to this cat he was good in college... This staff just ruins players imo

This team is not good 2nd round of draft.

So if the best player is a qb for 5 straight rounds you will take a qb every time?

no. Dont be ludicrous. And again you’re missing the point. The cowboys FORCED the taco pick because they wanted a DE and they planned on taking a corner later.

They then whiffed on both picks. But EVERYONE knew they were going to draft DE in the first round. We all saw it coming.

Benching players 15 games in is comical. Almost as bad as keeping a coaching staff that has allowed an embarrassing performance week in and week out.

Not sure if anyone noticed but he was benched after the first quarter for poor play. He is exactly the kind of player we need to get rid of and figure out the flawed thought process that lead to the decision to draft him. He is a quitter and a loser.

Saw that. Bout time. But, too little too late. Sad. If Garrett did stuff like this years ago he would be fine.

Need a whole new D

it has to start with the DC. our style of defense will never be elite. we play too far off. we go into every play saying we can give up the pass. just tackle them afterward. Think about that for a second. play off and tackle after they catch it. Id try to not give up anything. Id also play bump & run every play. I don't want to hear you need to switch it up because Al Harris was an elite corner for a decade. He was even good into his 30s when he lost speed. He plays bump & run his entire career other than the pro bowl. Our biggest problem is coaching. You have a cb with the size and skill set of Charles Woodson, but he won't play him that way. He needs to press on almost every play. Awuzie also needs to jam the receiver on very play. he should also we in the slot on 3rd downs.

Then you have a TE Like Jarwin with the athleticism of Dallas clark. Why not use him that way. Clark was smaller and was terrible at blocking. They found a way to use him.

Richard stunk this year.

Captain-Crash · Dec 22, 2019

they should have been looking for a better back up QB, and pulled the farse out.

cern · Dec 22, 2019

in fairness, the players shouldn't be judged until they have a new hc. garrett's uninspired leadership eventually gets to everyone.

looked like the glitch who lost Christmas.

Just remember. The cowboys reached for Taco in the first. Because they believed they could get a cornerback in the second, which ended up being Chido.

That draft looks freaking horrible right about now.
Got cute and it bit them.

Add to that they had to go for Taco because of the boneheaded decision to take the pothead Gregory the year before.
Mistake after mistake trying to make up for the previous mistakes.

Let him walk. Byron too. These guys don’t make plays.

Yes one big cluster *****.

Should have benched 54 for back peddling into empty space, running parallel with ball carriers, avoiding contact, and jumping excessively.

SwagSurfer · Dec 22, 2019

Too late in the season to bench guys imo. Especially when the coaches are screwing up throughout the games.

TheMarathonContinues · Dec 22, 2019

Ok that first quarter is a blur......I don’t remember him looking bad enough to get benched. He’s looked worse in previous weeks.

But the long jump champ is our cover corner, right. :laugh:

And people made fun of Larry Brown for doing the turtle.

This is what good team do. They hold players accountable for performance and bench guys playing poorly. JG unfortunately just discovered the concept today. This is was the quickest hook i've ever seen on a JG team and it was well deserved. Awuzie would be cut tomorrow from a lot of teams.

He's been getting torched all year.
This is nothing new, unfortunately.

I'm just wondering why it took so long to bench him...
