Biggest mistake of off season? Name one only

[waving monkey]

Why do you have to support him?" That is the most ridiculous thing I have every heard. Supporting ineptitude doesnt make you a good fan, it makes you a cheerleader. And your signature does more than support him. It implies that you think he is equal to the two greatest coaches in Cowboys history. And by saying that Garrett is the "the cowboy way" you are saying that ineptitude and poor coaching is the "Cowboy way".

because you make up comparisons doesn't make them accurate and true

he was gone

I hate it...but your right...he is gone and not coming back...Why in the heck did they think a failed EX-Raiders OL coach could fill his shoes.....Pollack is a big JOKE...and has set this OL back big time....another misguided belief from the Front Office that anyone can coach this OL, and any RB can run behind this OL.....what a hard lesson to learn....


Perfect example between Calahan and Pollack.....is when Romo broke his collar bone for the second time.....3 Cowboy blockers on 1 DLmen and the DL breaks through and sacks Romo to end his season. Pollack is a joke of a coach

Weeden. It was the worst last season as well and they were extremely lucky it did not blow up in their faces.

Extending Garrett was the biggest mistake of the offseason. Its not even close IMO.

 

[yesfan]

Bigest mistake this year imo is not having a quality backup at QB.

 

[CyberB0b]

Not hiring a real GM

Jerry is the reigning Executive of the Year.

Who said anything about the last 10-15 years? Why do you continue to make stuff up? Are my arguments so solid that that is your only chance at rebuttal? No, I know better.

You said,

"I never said it was what it was last year. Last year was lightning in a bottle. If can't be duplicated, not even with the same ingredients."

I am saying,

Yes, it couldve have been duplicated, and here are some examples from other franchises.......they duplicate what has worked for them; time and time again.

Im not making things up; read your posts. And, what exactly is your argument?

Callahan is a worse OC then our present OC. When he was demoted back to
line coach he was gone there was nothing the front office could have done,bad blood

I think you are probably correct.

I still think it had possibly the worst outcome for us given what we have seen

Anyway..water under the bridge.

You are wrong so wrong. Teams evolve, they don't stay the same duplicating what they did the previous year.

They find something that wins, and they hold on to it, for as long as they can............... which is a very difficult thing to pull off....if they have to change, they do. but if its working, they stick with it.

for some reason, i guess due to money, and lack of other options. we decided to change and go back to what produced 3 8-8 seasons.

make no mistake. The blame is on the Jones Family. And I love JJ. I really do. But he has failed.

 

[DC Cowboy]

I am going with not making a deal happen for Adrian Peterson.

You?

Not bringing back Murray

 

[CowboyRoy]

I'm sorry, I missed your post complaining about all these issues before the season started. Maybe they weren't so glaring at the time so you didn't bother. Surely your complaint isn't hindsight driven because anybody can do that.

Yah, you definitely did miss it. I'm not sure how.

Maybe you are misunderstanding me. I'm not saying they don't want to duplicate success by doing the same thing. I'm saying they rarely do because too many other factors come into play, so they evolve. You mentioned a few reasons this happens... money, change in personnel. Jerry Jones is the Owner/GM so of course the ultimate blame goes to him. He can not claim the credit for the good times without taking the blame for the bad. I bet he doesn't fire himself.

I don't want to hear it. You did not say a darn thing about those issues before the season started or you would point them out.

that was a no brainer

 

[bonafidebanter]

Naming Joseph Randall the starter.

I Agree.....and there have been more bad times then good. At first, I gave them the benefit of the doubt. They gambled a little after the dynasty to try and keep it going. And then got caught in a salasry cap switch by the NFL(cant remember the details), but they sort of got strapped for a few years. Then, I gave them the benefit of the doubt on some contracts and not being able to find a QB. But it started to go down hill for me, when they traded for Roy Williams......it was then I started to think............."What the heck are they doing?"........ I didnt like the hiring of Wade. And, they have had a franchise QB or awhile now, and have done nothing.............Romo has had his "times" but I dont blame that on him. He is outstanding........top 5-7 QB for a long time now...


And I absolutley love JJ. I really think he wants to win more then other owners. He just............cant. His ego has hurt this franchise. And that is my problem with it all....Stephen, while slowly taking over, has shown some real change. But the results are the same;

But , Im off track and this probably needs to go to rant zone at this point. My apologies.

Too funny. You say it like there is no way that someone could possibly know all that. They are all common sense. And there were plenty of people on even this site that hated what we did with the RB situation. Fans have been complaining about Clappy the clown for years. And many have also hammered the franchise for passing on young QB's over the years. This is not genius stuff my man. These were all common sense, simple concepts.

If you had no clue about them, then that is your own issue. Dont bash others for having a clue. Feel free to look through the archives its all there. I have no need to point out it out to anyone. Those that I argued with know full well who was right and who was wrong.

After an exhausting search through the archives... other than not bringing back Murray, nobody was complaining about those issues before the season started so yet again you are wrong but that's not really a surprise though is it. I mean , that's pretty much what you do. Make things up and captain obvious complain. But it's all funny to you so keep laughing, Joker.
