Just a question but other than getting one marquis Wide Receiver, which proven aquisitions now propell them ahead of the Eagles and Skins who both picked up free agents and draft picks?
IMO, our season is going to hinge on the run game. Lets see where that takes us.
aside from drafting inexperienced rookie Tyler Booker, what makes the offensive line significantly better?
LOL, I might have well written this myself. I agree with every word. We have to hope for the best. Athletes compete. Ordinary people compete in sports, games, what have you. They're trying to win. But that's not always the case with team ownership. They're not always trying to do everything they can to win. That's what is frustrating with the Cowboys because we know our front office is half butting it. We have to hope things turn out well, given the level of effort put into improving the team.
And apparently hope is mostly what's left for us. I can buy hope
I voted buy ,let's see what these coaches can do with this new group of players. I believe Dallas makes the play offs and surprises in a positive way.
well i am factoring Dak being healthy, if nothing else he can beat other NFCE trams.
are the cowboys improved? yes, adding Booker, Eze and Pickens. but have they plugged all their holes? most probably not. we had way too many holes. we went cheap in FA again. we filled up a few holes with JAGs and journey men. the eagles, coming off superbowl domination, added similar nice pieces in draft. so did washington. we are still 3rd best team in the division. now again, compared to last season this team maybe improved. but so did everybody else and everyone can claim the same. we may have slightly better record, but this team will beat last year's team for sure. may not be fully reflected in the record. with that said, we may sneak into playoffs, but unless every move, every player, every pick and every trade and FA works out perfectly this is not a superbowl team by any stretch of imagination.
7 to 9 wins keeps you from drafting a high potential QB too. I’d rather go 2-15 than 7-9.
perhaps, and Jerry will ruin him too. we had parcells and Jerry ruined it. that's what jerry does. if things go well, he will hog the cameras, take credit for everything, will meddle to no end and just screw it up. just wait and see.
better does not equal good. and you are guessing. or should I say deep inside you are hopeful because you are a cowboys fan
Fair statement. With the current roster i can see us going 1-3 against the Eagles and Skins.
that's what I said last year. let lance play because with Rush we know what we got and going nowhere, but we traded for lance, so let him play it out.....playing rush was utterly stupid.
Agree. It was the perfect time to see why we gave up a 4th......but that delusional owner probably actually thought we had a chance of making the playoffs.
Since you defined it...Contend for what exactly? They are absolutely in the playoff picture with the offseason moves after Pickens, but if you mean contend for a SB it's a big no. If you mean contend for the playoffs it's a yes
Pickens is a conundrum imo. If he has a fantastic year he’s gonna want 100 million right when Micah’s deal is up.
