Another thing we can all see coming. 8-8

Look, I'm no fan that quits on my team, but if it gets bad enough and we're, say, 3-8 or so, I say tank. If you aren't in the playoffs you might as well get a top 10 pick.
We're not there yet and could still turn things around.

Maybe 7-9, perhaps 9-7. Much like the outcome of the GB game, we all see this coming. Search your feelings, you know this to be true.

Neither 8-8, 7-9, or 9-7 would do us any good in terms of making a playoff push, or be a serious contender coming out of the NFC (not with this defense). Moreover, it gets us a middle round draft pick. Whoopee!

We've got a young nucleus on offense with Dak and Zeke in the fold. I honestly shouldn't complain about losses from here on out if it gets our inept couching staff canned as well as a top 10 position in each draft round, and a softer schedule for 2018. That's where I'm at now. We've seen this script before.

But...in true Dallas Cowboys fashion, we'll win *just enough* to hang on to faint wild card chances (until we're knocked out), and win *just enough* for JG and Co. to come back next year.
Does JG ever get mad a players or coaches?

Only scared in the context of this team trying to beat them. Giving up the first 10 yards free is exactly what those teams want to do.

So on D, we won't hold them took few enough points to allow the offense anything but a perfect effort.

And as we see every week, this offense if pretty damn good, but not perfect.

Denver was an anomaly. LA was a beast rb meeting with a Sean Lee less defense that was playing well until Switzer fumbled. Then there's Aaron Rodgers. It's obvious we need to draft a real linebacker unless Jaylon gets back 100 percent because we can't afford to lose Lee. On the flip side, Carolina fell apart without Luke and Seattle was flopping without Earl Thomas. I'm just not as worried as y'all are. The future is bright. We have a great gm (Mclay) and great young pieces. Coaching?

It will take a scandal of some sort to get Garrett fired. Does he have any skeletons in the closet? Maybe someone can hack his emails and see what kinda shady stuff he's got :eek:

Now here is a guy who is THINKING. We need more of this people

8-8 is the worst case scenario. Right now, im hoping for 2-14. Top pick and new coaching staff

Not getting a top 10 pick unless Dak goes down and Kellan takes over. We will get a middle of the pack pick. Hopefully it’s enough to draft a good prospect at MLB

I agree that if we don't get in the playoffs the worse record we have the better. There have been years we fought like hell to get to 5 and 11, for what?

This isn't a year to tank. At least not at this point. I think we will Right the ship.
