I write marketing ads for businesses.

But I think I might have to reassess my style of business or add a new service to my repertoire.

I bet I can make a good size fortune on writing "game lost" interview scripts for these players.

I'm trying to figure out how any of these quotes are excuses, but let me tap out so I don't catch the wrath of an angry fan.
The village idiots are in full rage mode tonight. They are gathering in town square. I heard the mass grave is already dug. How many cowboys bodies will be buried by sunrise? So far they have executed Dak, Zeke, Cooper, D Law, Chidobe, Gallup. The list is growing my the minute.

Saying Dak missed some throws is a huge understatement.

He hasn't made many well-thrown passes the last few weeks. Everything has been behind the receiver, high or underthrown.

The team has quit. They just ran into a team last week that came in lackluster, while we had 10 days off. This is the same team we’ve seen for weeks now. Dak didn’t practice all week and it showed.

And the list should grow...smile

Who knows, really? Just say you played bad. What a joke. “I missed some throws” is all he can say. He missed more than a “few throws”. If he wasn’t so selfish, he would’ve tried out Cooper Rush. I know Rush sucks, but see what he can do. We were already losing, so what’s the worst that could happen at that point?

a bunch of big misses

Forgot these excuses from Amari and D-Law. There were so many, it’s hard to keep up with them all.




I am getting sick and tired of people saying how talented these guys are. They really aren't. They are a bunch of millionaires collecting pay checks and every, now and then, they give the fans hope by playing hard. They have no heart, or passion, just like the puppet coach. Zeke is out of shape, Dak is merely a game manager, Cooper has little passion and D Law is the most overrated DL player in the NFL. They are a mediocre team with mediocre talent.

When will they take accountability? These are quotes from our “Triplets” (which I believe are lies. No way you take yourself out of a game with huge implications like this. Especially on big downs).


If he got hit in the head that hard, he’d be in concussion protocol. Lie.


Really? Nothing to say about yourself or your team? The Iggles did not play “good”. You guys just played bad.

Completely ignoring their performance less than 5 minutes ago. Like it was nothing. They wouldn’t have to have a “must win” against the Commanders if they handled business like they were supposed to tonight. But no. What an idiot. He probably doesn’t even know the Eagles have to lose next week to go to the playoffs. No accountability here. Just riding on false hope and faith.


Really? A team that scores no TD’s played hard? What an idiot. This truly shows that the terribleness starts at the top. How dumb can you be? On what metric did this team play hard? Jones must’ve watched form an alternate universe.

I know everyone likes to say, “Our coaches suck!” “We lack leadership!”. There is NO WAY you ignore the lack of accountability, effort, and will of our players. I know Bill Belichick said “No player can overcome bad coaching.” However, one can obviously see this team lacks the effort and will. The fact that these players need motivation from their HC speaks volumes. They are grown men who have played football for basically their entire lives. Relying on the coaching staff for that is ridiculous. I’m tired of these players getting off easy. This team desperately needs new coaching, but to say the players don’t need changing as well is asinine. Rant over.

This exposes the lack of Game and mental preparation. It's all coaching and culture. Every one of those statements has a "There's always tomorrow" mentality.

I can't complain about Zeke. He takes some hits. He's the only tough guy on the offense.

Dak's play and decision making was alarming. When you have a 3rd and 4, why on earth do you shoot for long ball. He did it a couple times. The underneath completion is there, you just need a couple yards. Wentz knows that. But he locks on and launches. He had 1 good deep completion that he underthrew to Gallup. Average QBs make that throw in stride. TD. He overthrows Tavon "one play a year" Austin by 10 feet from a clean pocket. Throws behind people all day.
Throws 6ft out of bounds to Gallup on 3rd and short right before his 4th down chuck to end that debacle. This is it. This is how it's going to be. Dak can't win a big game. Wilts under pressure. Coach killer. I saw progress early on this year. Footwork, ball speed, decisive decisions. What a crock. Sucked me right in. Not again though. I'm off the Dak train.

What did you want them to say? Dak said he was bad and didn’t use injuries as a excuse and Zeke said he hit his head. What did you want?
Zeke could have said “I’m a purse carrying diva who likes to bully women and people half my size but my over sized noggin had a boo boo and I really needed another breather so I took myself out of the game”. :D

Had he said that, it would have been the second time in my life I’ve agreed with him.

Overpaid, maybe, but not all of them underperform as consistently as the spoiled Cowboy players.

a lot of that is coaching as well. Poor game plan, no sense of urgency, Not prepared, no adjustments, wrong play calls.

entire team under performed all year ex pat a few games. Bit to me it still comes down to coaching.

And that would be helped you cope with this loss?

This staff killed us as much as the players effort. They judged. They judged the way they saw them play and assumed they would roll over them. Tried once again to play just good enough. Figured they would get that last TD and tie it up. You let a TE best you. You let them screen and run on you. ITS ALL THEY HAD AND YOU DIDNT GAME PLAN TO TAKE THAT AWAY.

I have been saying this since New Orleans and Green Bay...the entire organization has been one BIG EXCUSE. Hubris, arrogance, naivety, and excuses. Until the Dallas fan base decides that they've had enough of the vapid, vacillating vaudeville that the Cowboys are at present...the show will go on.
