- Dez briefly talks to JJ at the HoF party about him and Dak having a prior conversation about winning the SB.
- Rewind to 2016’s draft, Stephen and Garrett were already looking to find Romo’s replacement in that draft. Stephen specifically says "lets be honest here, Romo has been hurt 2 of the 3 years". The fact the team was being reactive about it is telling. If the concern was there than why draft Elliot at all? Why not trade up before and secure the spot you needed for a franchise QB. (i.e. Wentz, Goff)
- The Garrett and Dak throwing sessions are a bit more clearer to me and I see the intent...Garrett is well aware of Dak's accuracy woes and is working with him at every opportunity with the friendly competitions. I like this quality about Garrett because he's connecting with Dak on personal and professional level. JG is very much a player's coach.
- The irony during Witten's scene about him talking about what he can do to help the team win championships is his failure to realize that he's a progress stopper. There is no doubt that Witten is a first ballot HoF player and his leadership is a big void to fill, but he also insinuates that Dak is the leader. Also did anyone notice as he's pulling up to the Star and turns in he's on the wrong side of the road?
- I've always maintained that the Zeke suspension was going to affect this team no matter what. You can find old posts of me saying Zeke looked out of shape to start the year out. What a huge distraction to start out the season and just kept lingering until he had to serve his suspension. Equally concerning is the coaching staff had no real plan in place if they lost him for the six games.
- The business meeting with all Jones' about jersey sales is concerning. They are talking about jersey sales of Dak and Zeke. GMs don't care about jersey sales...owners do. Jersey sales coupled with personnel decision makers don't mix.
- The Dooley scene is depressing...why is he even talking about the how good the Denver defense is in the first place? It's ******* week 2 and not one team understands how good/bad they are yet. That seems like a loser mentality to me or he doubts his own WR room. Clearly Dez is tired of hearing that and voices his opinion. I just don't get why spend the time talking the other team up, especially at Week 2 of the season. If the players get the sense that the staff has doubts than you've already lost them.
- It's obvious that the DEN game plan was to feed Zeke and dominate through the run game to win. However, we know that was about the biggest team loss because every unit had a bad day. No question Zeke lost interest in that game as did everyone else when the game plan failed. I blame that on the coaches and players but I have to wonder how many other coaches were giving the Dooley loser speech to their rooms about how good Denver was.
- In all team meeting scenes, Dak was always sitting in between Dez and Beasley. After the loss at Denver Zeke is snoozing when Garrett is talking about how ****** the team was. JG should have made an example of him.
