Works both ways. However I am not constantly complaining about anything and everything. So you do have that blue ribbon over me.
you are just constantly complaining about who you call complainers who actually just have higher standards for the Boys than you do

Like anyone and their cousin gives a crap what you say,,,and that is no discussion. Just insult. Explain now, how a good player is measured. No ring tapper insults as explanation. Butt, butt, butt, butt...

All that is understood by your observation are pictures.

See if you can even figure this out...

This is a portrait of you and the input clung to....

There was no stuttering here and your ears don't overlap.

No, all you cling to is undiscussed insult...making you and your good buddies lame ducks.

Pure bread 'boy' in actions.

Couldn't even define a good player. Just shut the hell up, Lame.

Worst GM in North American sports.

A narcissist who believes the fluff his idiot son and everyone else around him feeds his empty brain and soul.
He's not really a GM.

All GMs but ours has 1 job and probably works at least 50 hours a week.

We have a part time GM that plays with his team when he is bored with his other toys.

Exactly what is he supposed to arrange at this stage of the season and missing 7 strong starters?

  • QB Dak Prescott
  • WR CeeDee Lamb
  • RG Zack Martin
  • DE Sam Williams
  • DE DeMarcus Lawrence
  • LB DeMarvion Overshown
  • CB Trevon Diggs

With two games remaining, the Cowboys are missing 7 of their starters. That itself, is disabling, and at the same time allowing for 'golden' time on carpet evaluations on quite a few potential laden players. The off season directions are being set now as we watch.
Very good chance 5 of them don't play very much or at all next season.

A bet here and now and not leading with just stereotyped doubt.

Exactly which 5 doubting Thomas. Not there!
DLaw and Martin will be gone.

Overshown has a long road to recovery. Who knows when Diggs will be ready. Apparently he is lazy with rehab.

I forgot Williams is signed for another year.

Do you know how Dallas became a dynasty in in the 1990s after sucking and being mediocre in the 1980s? They were terrible in 88, 1st pick in the draft, drafted Aikman. Brought in a Coach/GM Jimmy Johnson, and made an epic trade with a person the equivalent of Micah Parson's and CeeDee lamb in Herchal Walker. They were pushing forward, and the losing season was the catalyst. And what Jerry is doing now is so idiotic, it's like he doesn't care about winning Super Bowls, just winning games. We are in the middle of the pack, and at the lower end of the pack when we're good, which is mediocrity. Too good but not good enough to win the Super Bowl, and doesn't suck enough to get impact players.

A quality CB will not be dropped. Lawrence was rated with Parsons, as the top pair of defensive ends in the start of this season. This current set of defensive ends is very deep as well as strong. Williams and the players still playing will provide 6 very strong players for the defensive line.

Overshown will be back and there hasn't been a complaint on his commitment beyond loose lips sinking the fan ship.

Martin still is respected. Retirement is his call.


Consider this rationalization?

Current Cap $23 mm
Steele cut $14mm
Dak savings $36mm
Safeties cut $8mm
CD savings $20mm
Micah extention$15mm
Diggs restructure $6mm

Saved $122mm

Much more is very doable for the Cowboys. They aren't bound by some fan's pessimism.

This is a discussive element on context of players and projecting to the off season.

With them eliminated from playoff contention, they ruled Lamb out for their final two games against the Philadelphia Eagles and Washington Commanders.

When Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was asked if Lamb could play if the Cowboys had a playoff game this week, he confirmed that he would be able to but if he suffered more damage, he'd have to get surgery. Right now, he doesn't need surgery.

https://thespun.com/nfl/dallas-cowboys/jerry-jones-reveals-if-ceedee-lamb-needs-offseason-surgery

...and no, Jerry doesn't sound like an uninformed fool, here.

The Cowboys enter their Week 17 game against the Eagles with a 7-8 record and are trying to get back to .500 heading into their Week 18 game against the Commanders.

I haven’t really been excited about a hire since Parcells . And after awhile he had enough of training camp patrolling the sidelines he wanted to be kicked upstairs to “buy the groceries” and let Sean Payton coach . Jerry turned that down and here we are years later one coach after another ….:facepalm:

Three seasons of 12 wins and then a season without 7 legitimate starters...not as you picture here.

7-8 here and now. The team could still end with a winning season.

I’ll give you this 9 wins with the amount of injuries is quite a rebound from what 3-7 they were . However one more loss and you’re looking at 2 losing seasons out of the last 5 under MM .

I have not seen evidence this team is challenging the likes of Detroit SF Minn Philly Balt KC etc anytime soon . Not all MM fault but JJ isn’t firing himself .
