News: BR: Cowboys Fans Lash Out on Twitter After Jerry Jones Fails to Trade for WR at Deadline

[Praxit]

OMG this fanbase

would i like a new shiny WR yes, but we're 6-2 lets act like it for once

just cry over everything

..Imo we dont need WR. We have Brown, CD, Gallup, Shultz, Henderson, Ferguson, other on IR.

 

[shabazz]

so a group of Lamb, Gallup, Brown, Washington, Tobert and Cooks would win the superbowl? This would have been Cooks 5th team. Doubt he is a difference maker.

I don’t recall mentioning Cooks name…there are many other receivers on many of the teams that could have been acquired. The Jets alone have a couple begging to get off that team and that’s just one example.

if you are happy with not making any moves while the stronger teams have all upgraded, I don’t want to change you’re mind. That’s what we’re here for. Exchange of thoughts

All the nimrods going to tell him like they did on La'el and Randy!

Get 'em guys, YOU KNOW BETTER THAN THEY DO! :0

Well, they actually did attempt to sign Randy to a prohibitively expensive deal but got lucky that they are so bad at negotiating they scared him off at the 11th hour.

Very disappointed that they didn't attempt to better this team in pursuit of a championship, but the roster we have got already is pretty dang good.

Smells like the NFCCG to me.

smells like you have freshly burnt crack coming from your pores

 

[shabazz]

They call this place Twitter now? When are Cowboys fans NOT lashing out?

…..when they are winning more than 3 playoff games in 23 years.

we are so spoiled with our quarter century success. Let’s keep the same winning philosophy and don’t dare criticize it …

 

[EST_1986]

Where did you get this information about deliberately ignoring?

It was reported that they were trying to make a move for a WR and it didn’t work out. I’m sure they wouldn’t have to give up too much in a trade before the usual crybabies would be screaming about that.

comes from seeing words vs action with this front office

 

[shabazz]

smells like you have freshly burnt crack coming from your pores

….beating the Powerhouse Lions and Bears has returned some of our fellow fans back to delusion world

it didn’t take long

 

[Cowpolk]

We are DOOMED

 

[shabazz]

We are DOOMED

we are no worse…but no better.

 

[Mannix]

At some point the FO has to gamble and go for the SB by adding pieces. How is it Philly keeps churning through the NFL but we constantly give Jerry a pass bc we always assume you can only get burned in trades?

Its puzzling because when we point out a certain players huge cap hit, we are told not to worry about a players salary but when we want to add players just to keep up with our competitors, we are being told not to break the bank.

the Rams have already proven it can be done and the Bills, Chiefs and others have learned from it

 

[Vegas_Cowboy]

I'm glad we didn't. Why were people so hell belt for the Cowboys to trade for a WR? There is only one ball per play and the Cowboys have many WR's already.

I'll never understand the WR fetish by so many Cowboys fans. Every trade deadline, free agency, and draft, without fail.

 

[Flamma]

Who actually expected Jerry to make a big trade? I was joking around in the other thread in regard to if LV had odds on this.

Dallas makes trade at deadline +500
NO trade at deadline. -950

If I recall, someone lost some money.

 

[glimmerman]

I see JJ yawning.

 

[Ken]

What top 5 WR did they trade?

PFF had him #22 before the season, that is close to 5!

Don't care about the receiver. Wish they addressed run d though.

We did make a move, trading for Hankins, but I agree that we could have gone for it by making one or two more moves. If you believe you have a legitimate shot at winning a Super Bowl, you've got to go for it IMO. However, I do find it funny that any fan thought we would make a major trade. That's just not this front office's MO now.

 

[LysleE]

As trite as it sounds…Jerry lives by these words…”we like our guys”. We had a legit #1 WR that we gave up for a measles 4th round pick

How do we even have a shot? I thought we had the worst front office in the NFL that has no idea how to build a team?

Everyone wants to complain about how terrible the FO is and at the same time we want to go all in now because we are so talented and this is our chance.

Wouldn't surprise me if we see Suh AND Beckham in Cowboy jerseys by the end of the week .
