I have no respect for the guy. I'm sure he will fail there like he has failed elsewhere in life.

He had every opportunity given to him to succeed. Yet, nevertheless, he failed himself and those that believed in him. And instead of owning up to his shortcomings, he tried to blame everyone else and avoid taking personal responsibility. The interview he had on the Hardline cost all remaining goodwill I had for him to be immediately excised.

As a moral person, I don't want harm to fall him and I wish he could straighten out his life. But I can't wish him well. He doesn't deserve it.

How do you say "what's my role" and "I'm trying Coach, I'm trying" in French??

Is Chad Hutchinson heading to Canada too?

Troy Aikman and defense took us to our last playoffs.

The Great One himself, Mr. Quincy Carter....am I right?

 

[Sasquatch]

Bonne chance, Queu. :laugh2:

I don't think Canada will let Chad in the country...they have a law, I think, that says your eyes have to be at least an inch apart!

Besides that, Horseface would drive them Canucks(sp) crazy with the guitar of his!

I disagree about him being given every opportunity to succeed. He and the rest of the team were not given chances to win. That is the fault of Jerry Jones. He drafted players that should not have been drafted or grabbed them too high. He hired coaches that should not be head coaches and re-tread offensive coordinators. There was a lot of trash on the team. Quincy certainly didn't make the most of his opportunities, but those opportunities weren't great. The most idiotic thing I saw was Coslet giving the starting QB only half the snap in practice during the season. No other team does that. Like I said, it wasn't only Quincy, it was the whole team that Jerry put in a bad position. A poorly run franchice that started from the top.

IMO, there is absolutely no way anyone can honestly deny that post Joseephus.

I hate to admit it, but, yeah, that was pretty much it! Man, those are some bad memories! And, JJ must take the blame for that mess!

Remember when he said on Hard Knocks that he will make a bronze statue of Campo outside of Texas Stadium?

No wonder JJ stopped drinking! (i hope)!!

Whats your point even a blind squirrel finds a nut every now and again. QC had less to do with the playoff appearance then you think, it had more to do with BP and his DISCIPLINE, something this team hasn't had since JJ. A QB no matter how talented has to be looked to for leadership and direction and neither of those qualities are in QC. Look at all the failing QB's in the NFL, none of them have IT, the leadership and the respect from their teammates. You could never count on QC to do that one thing that needs to be done to get the job done. Just look at his personal life he couldn't do what was needed to stay away from cocaine so how can you count on him do what needs to be down on the field. Before you throw out LT, he is a different animal all together, he played defense and personality attibutes for defensive players is different from a QB's attributes.

And Carter was one of those guys drafted too high. Sorry the guy is not that good and I don't think it is a given he wins the job in the CFL for the Alouettes where the current QB Anthony Calvillo appears to be a fan favorite up there and has been very successful for the last 9 years.

 

[Glenn Carano]

Quite the impressive list there

But you left out the current and most important one:

DREW BLEDSOE...the man that's going to lead this team to an NFL record 6th world title.

:zzz:

Answer the question. Are you A Cowboys fan or just a Bledsoe fan? If Dallas wins and Bledsoe goes 10-28 for 125 yards and 3 picks do you cry yourself to sleep? If Dallas loses and Bledsoe goes 25-32 for 325 yards and 3TD's are you elated?

 

[Hostile]

List of QBs to start since 8ball left

Carter- CFL bound

Leaf - Nada

Wright - Back-up Ravens

Stoerner - AFL (I think)

Chad - Nada

Henson - NFLE

Doesn't it make you want to bite the bullet and go after a QB high in the draft.

Vinny?

Romo?

Banks?

You missed some corpses C.

No argument from me, my man!

Thats pretty much like excuses that Quincy put out. Sorry, sure, he didn't have best of chances. Just like Chad Hutchinson wasn't either. But that has nothing to do with what he did and all the issues he created for himself. Its one thing if failed as QB, like maybe Stoerner did or Chad did. Buts its another thing on all other issues he had, and don't think its just the team issues.

All in all, Quincy never proved to be a real good human being. Either way, its not Cowboys problem. Good luck to him, but I have no sympathy for him at all. And I don't for Chad Hutchison either. Or Stoerner etc. They were all given oppurtunity and didn't succeed. End of story.

That has nothing to do with his drug use and conduct off the field! I think its fair to say that he wasn't cut so abruptley due to his on field performance even if he was surrounded by a weak cast. He turned his back on his team by doing something that would get him expelled.

 

[jrumann59]

You can't count banks he barely was here long enough to let the ink dry on his contract

 

[LittleBoyBlue]

You know, since we are on the subject of QC, I still wonder what happened to that grievance that the NFLPA was supposed to file against the Cowboys?

Anyone know what happened to that?

My researched turned up a dead end

Als sign Quincy Carter


Globe and Mail Update

The Montreal Alouettes have signed former Dallas Cowboys and New York Jets starting quarterback Quincy Carter to a one-year contract plus an option with the organization.
Carter, 28, was chosen by the Cowboys in the second round of the 2001 NFL draft. In eight starts that year, Carter completed 90 of 176 passes for 1,072 yards, seven interceptions and five touchdowns. He had his best season in 2003, starting every game for the Cowboys and completing 292 of 505 passes for 3,302 yards, 21 interceptions and 17 touchdowns.
He went to the New York Jets in 2004, playing seven games.

''I'm proud to join the Montreal Alouettes," said Carter. ''This is a great opportunity for me to do what I love best, which is to play football."
Over four years in the NFL, Carter completed 56.5 per cent of his passes (542/960) for 6,337 yards, 37 interceptions and 32 touchdowns.
At the University of Georgia, Carter completed 483 of 853 passes for 6,447 yards, 25 interceptions and 35 touchdowns.

No doubt. I always thought QC was drafted too high. Was he good? No. Did he have a chance in 2001 and 2002 to succeed? No. A healthy Aikman would have struggled during those years.
