I have no problem with their drafts. At all. It's everything else they stink at.
And a lot of us are gonna tell you that people like you fans that overreact, you all use this for dramatic effect , by using words like everything else they stink at, you know it's bad as they stink how in the world have they won 36 games two division titles and going to the playoffs 5 and the last eight years that Prescott been healthy ????
I mean is this like an accident???? they somehow tripped into it?? I mean they're beating the Eagles for these two division titles who make all these amazing moves and you guys' eyes but how is it that they collapse so hard last year and can't beat the Dallas Cowboys regularly? you know this circus ,who are stinking at roster building but been top 6 the last 3 years.
Ohh wait a minute,
I know what it is there must be about 27 or 28 teams that stink far worse because they can't seem to put this kind of consistency together and yes I know it's only the regular season but there are a lot of teams and teams fan bases that would trade places with us in a heartbeat to be complaining about so many playoff exits, I mean early playoff exits suck but it sucks worse not to make the playoffs.
Here's why it feels like they stink,
because your expectations are we need every big time free agent and every blockbuster trade of players that you have on your list that say we should get those players or it's a failure....
I realize we're failing in the playoffs, so please don't come back with that I don't want to hear the 27 years of mediocrity because mediocrity would be a word where the Cowboys would have to be finishing lower than 16 every year because there's 32 teams in the league and mediocrity would mean somewhere in the middle so your definitions and your math are off
So yes, they are not one of the all-in aggressive teams they rely on the draft too much, but they are pretty good at other things besides the draft because they do pick some good undrafted free agents, they make them enough trades like with Gilmore hankins and cooks amari cooper and a few others, to keep this team competitive and when you make the playoffs, you are contending...
So they don't stink at everything because IF they suck at everything, they would be one of the bottom 10 teams in the league not one of the top ten teams in the league on a yearly basis this is one of the best runs we've had since the mid 90s and it may not be enough I realize we want more I want more but I'm tired of hearing these words and phrases that him you in they do not stink and everything besides the draft...
They are just not one of the aggressive teams that feel that they got to go all in and there aren't many of those I mean you're lumping in the Cowboys with a couple teams like the Rams only did it once and then the Eagles seemed to be always active but they only have one Super Bowl win in 60 years and yes the 49ers are the team that's dominating the Dallas Cowboys right now and making us look bad in every way possible from coaching down through the draft and free agency but guess what they lost to the Kansas City Chiefs who are doing the least in free agency..yup go fact check.. The Dallas Cowboys actually run their franchise like about 28 other teams in the NFL, it's pretty normal to do business and be a little worried and cautious about the salary cap and the future of your team not many of them throw caution to the wind.
But when you look at the New England Patriots and the Kansas City Chiefs those teams are not brought up enough when saying we should use a blueprint we should copy that team because you know why it doesn't fit your narrative and I realized they both had one of the best coaching slash quarterback duos in order to do this they never were truly that aggressive in free agency...... they didn't typically hang on to their players too long and overpay their players, they used the draft, they made smart trades ,and they were really good at designing schemes to fit the players that they can get ahold of in that given year.
You show me over the really long historic run by the New England Patriots how many years they literally were all in and how they were aggressive and got all the big name free agents and we're spending the most money and blowing up the salary cap and now the Kansas City Chiefs are doing the same thing from what I saw the last three years....
they have been one of the least active teams and they are doing the same things the Cowboys are doing and I know we can't be them we don't have Patrick mahomes and Andy Reid but I'm saying you keep bringing up the Eagles and the 49ers and the Rams are the only teams who have used this all in philosophy and it's only worked what's for the Rams in winning a Super Bowl the rest of them are losing to teams like the patriots and the chiefs who do it more like Moneyball, when we look at how Oakland and Houston have built their teams not using the old blueprint that the overly aggressive Los Angeles dodgers and the New York Yankees use, just like that sport and baseball who have a little bit looser structure to their salary restrictions, there are some teams that just spend a billion dollars more than the other team but is it always working ? that would be a resounding no, because you have teams in small markets or have teams with different philosophies that are also winning the big championship games more because where have the Yankees and dodgers been lately like the last decade using that philosophy that yes that the Eagles in 49ers have done..
So yes some of the NFL are just always active but most of the NFL's are like the Cowboys they do business normally they hardly go outside their comfort zone and I get it it's frustrating because we haven't won a championship and a Super Bowl but please don't give me this nonsense that they stink at everything!!
you know if the Cowboys suck as bad as our fan base say they do why is it that we're always on prime time?? why does the league not view us as a bad team our ratings are always the highest?? we have again one of the best win percentages over the last 10 years and over the last five years where our top 6, when you use the word stink or terrible and you say that they're the worst at everything except for the draft I'm gonna call you out because you're very wrong they just are not aggressive and they're not willing to sacrifice and get out of their comfort zone and I get the frustration with that but they really do business like most other teams in the NFL..that's a FACT..
So be jaded all you want ,say things that are not true or factual, be drama king, that's what seems to be this small section of the Cowboys fan base and using the word fan is using the term loosely want to do everything they can to bash the team, they don't like any moves, they don't like anything ,and yet they hang around even though you're not being held hostage,
if you don't like it you can go away...
