Tony is our oldest player at 33, two years older than Witten, 31. Hard to believe.

15th place out of 32 teams is really nothing to have a comment about. You can't really be disappointed but you also can't be happy. It's just whatever...

That means you are better than half the teams in the nfl. We have made some great strides in the last couple years.

I think our team is even younger in reality, given that our qb is our oldest player, and our long snapper is one of our oldest players.

Will be a much younger team in the next year or two as well.

I think in 2010 we were the second oldest team in the NFL and through the first half of the season one of the worst at 1-7.

We will probably take a tick towards younger next season with the final release of Livings, Rat and the FA exodus of Spencer. The only truly older players left on the roster at that time will be Witten, Romo and Ware.

I wonder how our numbers would look like this year if we took our Livings and Rat.

It's an improvement. As late as 2010 the team was one of the oldest... and it showed.

Thats a good thing except almost all the impact players are old and almost done.

True. The team is headed younger.

Yep... 3 older guys you mention will be off the roster next season.

You don't want to be the youngest or the oldest... They have a nice blend of players. Nothing to be upset about folks.

Lee, Claiborne, Tyron, Carter, Demarco,Spence, Dez. Geriatric, huh? Then the guys that ARE older, Witten, Romo, Ware, Hatcher are in their early thirties.

Lee when he plays, dez, yes carter hasnt proved to be a huge Impact player just yet. Spencer is older and will be gone next year and out until like week 5. Demaro and claiborne im not sure they are impact players. I guess demarco is when he plays. This is the year foe claiborne to prove it but he'll be limited the first 3 or so games.

Dude, our oldest player is 33, that's still young for the NFL and our guys only get younger from there

This is the definition of Pessimism.

Well I guess Its not as bad as I thought then. We really only do have like 3 or 4 years with the main group though. Who knows how long itll take to get a decent qb after romo
