Do it Jerry! Get Crosby!

I know we Cowboys fans get a lot of stick when we say we think we can win a Super Bowl. However, with the way Dak is playing, and with how our special teams has been, I think it's time to say this. Go fur it, Jerry! I don't normally like giving up first round picks, but our glaring issues are pass rush and linebacker. If we can get an elite pass rusher in Maxx Crosby, and if we have to give up one of our 4 firsts and maybe a few other non-first round picks, I think we should.

Besides, Overshown will be back soon. Can you imagine a defence with Crosby, Clark, and Houston up front, and then Sam Williams on another side? We might have something. I've also enjoyed watching Shemar James develop.

Additionally, making a move where you potentially give up a first and a mid round pick or two for Crosby sends a message to the team. It says that we think we can win now. With how our offense is, if we can get our defence quickly to being one of the best, we should. Plus, you think Crosby wouldn't be over the moon at getting a legitimate chance at a Super Bowl? You think the defence wouldn't be fired up? Think the Eagles wouldn't make this move if they think they had a chance? Of course they would, and so should we!

Furthermore, Crosby, aside from being great at rushing the passer is notoriously good at impeding the running back on run plays. He's a much more versatile player than Parsons in terms of his pass rush skills and his ability to help stop the run.

All in all, I think we should go fur it. I know the Commanders were without a lot of their top WRs, but that pass rush was better on Sunday. This move would boost the morale and the explosiveness of this team. If Dak can keep playing how he is, along with our kicking game, what do you think adding Crosby would do? You get an elite player like Crosby to compliment our offense? That's a team NOBODY wants to play. You get the offense the ball more. You get more opportunities. And Bland can probably get more pick six opportunities like he did on Sunday. Do it Jerry! Get Crosby!
 
Heck, even if not Crosby, maybe we can get a good Chubb on a discount to get a beast of a linebacker.
 
Lord. Ok, he's a good player, but not sure he helps us stop the run. We would still have massive issues

I think the run game looked better against the Commanders, and they have a decent run game. He's also very good at stopping the run. If we want to also add, maybe we can try to get James Williams from the Titans? He's not a bad linebacker, and he'd probably be cheap. Really, all we need to do is get the linebackers beefed up a bit and have a shot at a pass rusher, and I think this team can be in it as a contender. We just need to get a few stops, and this offense has been brilliant enough to where, why not try to win this division?

Did it look better because the top 3 WR's of the commanders were injured? and they basically had guys from the streets running routes? A poor passing game lets team stack the box more and blitz. Denver will be a much better test, followed by Arizona.

Crosby is one of the better run defending DEs in the league.

If you’ve seen my posts where I talk about edge rushers and list data, I leave him off of my “most edge are poor against the run” comments.

Trust me, if I could have dinged him when comparing to Micah, I would have. Micah is a more gifted pass rusher and puts more pressure on the QB than Crosby, but Maxx is a bit more well rounded player.

He’s the type of guy you would want from what I’ve seen you talk about.
 
One other thing I like about Maxx is is he is in recovery and vocal about it. People at that level of success who go into recovery, tend to have their feet on the ground. They’ve been through the wars in their heart and soul and often become grounded and resilient when dealing with adversity in something as simple as playing a sport.

Honestly, could be, but if we can get a guy like Crosby and Chubb or Devin White, that would undoubtedly make our defence much better.

In fact, I'd argue that Crosby might be the better of the two in general. Put Crosby on this team, and we have someone who is reliable, can help shut down the run, and is elite at pass rush. That's exactly what we need on Defense imo.

But he has a podcast.

Micah gave his up.

Crosby = Devil
