So for the past week or so, we have not heard anything from the Mothership Pilots and Navigators.
No quirky comments or draft misdirections. No secret sauce or shiny new toys comments.

What is going on with this new FO this season. Has MM put his foot down and influenced Jerry & Son, Inc. to be quiet.
Is the big boat lost at sea? Heck we have not even had any juice rumors lately.
Or are we missing it, because the front page is loaded with same topics going no where about a certain player. :laugh:

So do you like this new FO approach? We have 11 days until the draft. I do not remember it ever being this quiet before from the FO. Not for this long of a period.

They are doing things differently this year...they got a taste of what consistent success could be last year and honestly I think they are believing in both MM and wil mcclay...

If they do what they have been doing in the drafts as of late and hit this one out of the park plus grab a FA or two after that can help, then there is no reason this team shouldn't be in contender conversation...for real not just bc the cowboys are popular.

It's a new day

I wouldn't read anything into it and it is amusing to even think McC would influence the Joneses and their magpie imitations. They say what they want when they want.
You've got to have a little pre-draft optimism for post season success.

and yet fans and media believe MM is on the hotseat LMAO.. right, get rid of HC that has brought a taste a little sample of linked together success not seen since the mid 90s, not quite there yet, but hey blow it up he cant get passed the 2nd round. NFCCG or bust. now get a new HC , QB, lets tank and start over because this is just horrible!! because a new HC, qb, and even new shiny Gms, we've seen other teams just instantly get better like the cardinals, browns and jets... works like charm, blow it up start over it equals instant success. ..LOL


Last time we seem to get traction that weak hearted quitter named Parcells quit before the job was done, we lost peyton and now lets let MM walk before he gets to complete his job. look if we are 8-9 miss the playoffs, sure but another 2nd round early exit , umm i dont think the best move is to fire MM.

It's silly...back to back 12 win seasons plus first road playoff win in nearly 30 years...no hot seat

I do have pre-draft optimism because they've become pretty damned good with the draft and UDFA's.

I may argue with their draft positions but not with their picks.

Booger finally learned to listen to the people he hired to scout and help him instead of trying to prove he was competent on his own. He is still a potential wild card in that 2nd round so we'll have to hold our collective breath past that point.

Depends on the Joneses' expectations.

For a HC and a team to have accomplished that, they sure as hell have a lot of heat coming down on them. The emphasis is on the playoff loss, not the season.

The tell will be when the Joneses state "we've done our job". That will crank up the heat on McC's seat.

It beats the yammering of years past. Set your board and don't let loose lips sink the ship.

After 28 years of mediocrity, finally the sports world has realized the Cowboys are nothing special. They shouldn't command any attention.

This is wonderful news. Now the FO will be forced to create a SB team to make themselves relevant.

I wouldn't put too much thought into that. Jerry and son just hopefully just taking a break from hearing their own crap and MM taking advantage of it to make it seem he is the HC. oh well, enjoy it while it lasts. We all know what happens later. :flagwave:

They usually give you a pretty good idea of who their pick is before the draft.

So far I’m not sure.
My point of view is it had better not be a TE. A DT and OG will be optimum in rounds 1 & 2, especially if Bijan goes to the Eagles.

There is no question at all that MM is head and shoulders better than the hapless Garrett. Runs the team better and has Jerry's ear.
