Cowboy Tweets 10/14

[jazzcat22]

Why is most hyped up that Morris will be the RB. He really has not shown all that much. A few runs here and there. and a gaping hole he had let him go for 70 yards. You could clearly see he did not have the speed, and was slowing down the further he went.
McFadden would have had the TD.

They are keeping McFadden inactive for this very reason, in case Zeke is not eligible to play. For some miracle if Zeke is cleared to play all season. Expect McFadden to be active and Morris inactive.

Do you think it’s that easy just to “get him”?

First he is going to want to come here. If the 2-3 Cowboys call you or the Patriots or another contender...where would you go? What if he hates the Cowboys? He is from the northeast...maybe he wants to move back to the east coast.

Second the money will have to be right. If he is just looking for one last payday and a team like the Browns offers him a multi year deal with guaranteed money...do you match that?

Lastly, he is going to have to be happy with him role. Jaylon is only 5 games into his career after not playing for almost two years...he needs reps and Hitchens has earned playing time as well.

Something isn’t “wrong” with the organization if we don’t sign him...this isn’t madden, you can’t just sign any player you want.[/QUOTE

There is when you have zero impact players beside Sean lee at LB.

They need to sign Bowman. They let so many players slip by them, because they felt they were older and wanted to play their own picks, FA's or whatever. How has that worked out?

After seeing Peppers and Long make plays Thursday night. Freeney last year and the year before.

I was, and am usually against that, so I could see where the team was coming from in. a way. But not now, I changed my opinion. They need to bring in Bowman, he will not be a progress stopper. This teams reluctance to sign players is the progress stopper...it stops the progress of having playmakers to get to a SB.

i can't believe we didn't get after Chris Long in FA smh Paea and Carroll was their targets. That's why our defense is what it is today. I knew before the season our defense was going to be bad. How did the coaches and organization not think that?

So who is typically more accurate: Broaddys or Fish

Definitely not Broaddus. He was adamant that the Cowboys weren't gonna draft Zeke. Kept saying his sources were telling him they were drafting Ramsey.

Reuben Foster is also back for the 49ers. Bowman has been vocal about wanting more playing time and was angry about it per reports.

 

[cej757]

If the Cowboys are remotely serious about signing Bowman, they'd best abandon their bargain-basement mentality for a change!

It irks me how they've gone from nutty spending habits with Jerry to a penny-pinching one with Stephen around. No happy medium.

Yep. If it were up to Stephen the Cowboys would've never signed Deion Sanders even after Kevin Smith tore his Achilles and we needed Deion. He probably would've signed some average Jag and we would've never got that 5th Super Bowl. Stephen is cheap as heck and his penny pinching is gonna hurt this team for years to come.

Figured out which game I want to watch this morning. West Virginia vs Texas Tech.

My sources are telling me that Jaylon Smith can't run anymore, is afraid to take on blockers, can't cover anyone, and is not progressing.

Yikes! if Bowman is as washed up as some of these tweets say, maybe he's closer to finished than meets the eye!

Chasing after a former elite guy to one who's lost, not one, but a "few steps" doesn't sound like a wise deal after all.

Something definitely is wrong with an organization that hasn't seen a superbowl in over 2 decades. When's the last time we've even got to the conference championship?

You can't force the dude to come here, but you do your best to make an enticing offer. I find it hard to believe the Cowboys can't sign any decent free agents. You have to occasionally take a risk and make a splash in free agency. You certainly won't win with the scared approach to FA we've been taking. We've been singing these bargain bin dudes and these guys play like it. Paea is now retired and we cut Carroll. So how did those bargain bin signings turn out? Wasted money and a dumpster defense to show for it.

If Bowman is better than our other lbs, you need to tell those other lbs to accept their role and get Bowman on the field. If Jaylon Smith puts up more of the games he's been putting, he needs to see more of that bench. I'm for Jaylon getting reps, but not if he's a huge liability on the defense.

I would say there is a very real problem here since the FO turned what should have been a possible superbowl year into a rebuilding year. What exactly are we saving all of this money for? Is this the Dallas Buffetts? Has this turned into a mutual fund? We have Dak and even Zeke on relatively cheap contracts compared to what they will eventually get, and we need to take advantage of that.

I think it’s pretty much a guarantee that some team will pay a high price for a declining player here. People are getting too caught up in the name

He's not a answer by any means. He can help this team though on the first two downs.

You might be 100% correct, although I'm fairly confident that Jerry will choose to hang onto him at least another year, so as not to make his risky decision look more foolish than it already might have been. It's not encouraging at all at this point, that's for sure. He'll have to improve by leaps and bounds next year if he's destined to live up to his past.

I hate this narrative. A lot of teams build their offense around quick passes on the first two downs.

jerry jones will keep Jalen smith even if he is never more than he is now

I'm not saying cut the guy, I'm just saying he's not ready. He's playing way too much right now. I'm surprised his knee isn't swelling every week. It's getting embarrassing for him he looks so bad.

Hopefully Stephen or someone else will tell him in no uncertain terms that he gambled bigtime and lost. Gotta cut bait sometime.
