Do not go out on Sunday and make any attempts to beat the Skins

I hardly ever advocate tanking a game on purpose but in this situation I feel a little different. If the skins start resting players and appear they are not trying to win, then we need to throw in the towel. I would not let a division rival affect my draft position on purpose. Who cares about winning a meaningless game when the opponent is not trying. In this game, neither team has anything to gain but one team, us, has quite a bit to lose. I get that they may rest players to stay away from injury, but if they do, then we need to follow suit and go as vanilla as is possible. In fact we can never take the lead because as soon as we do, I feel they will never try and score again.

should just punt and run backwards into the endzone and kneel down for a safety every time we get the ball.

You would think.

Watch for a go for broke, lay it on the line gameplan from Garrett.

It would be just like him to completely screw this up.

He is all about saving his own skin. When it comes down to that, you know who is taking the one lone life preserver when the ship is sinking.

the scrubs and bubble guys are more inclined to go all out and try to win and lay their *** on the line. they are auditioning for next year.

the vets that know they have work next year are already packed for vacation. those are who you want to be playing

basically, it's silly top deviate from the guys that got us to 4-11. they already showed the capability to lose

Can we sign Cory Proctor to employ his patented "dont move from your stance at the snap" or the Haynesworth' "lay and watch" when on defense? It could be comedy gold if both teams kneeled for every snap and then dallas ran out the back of the end zone for a safety on the final play.

:laugh:

Nobody in the Cowboys team will try to lose this game. They are professionals who are paid to win every single game, and going into the offseason with a win feels much better than losing for draft positioning.
Besides, there really isn't much difference between #5 or #8, in the previous drafts there hasn't been any extreme advantage in picking #4,5 versus picking #7,8.

I say we go out there an beat the crap out of the Commanders and sweep the season series, any other mentality or losing preference deserves no place in a Cowboys locker room.
You do mean beat the crap outta the Skins 2nd & 3rd stringers right? Because that what you're going to see.

:lmao2: what a great little silver lining. Will Garret get out thought yet again on Sunday?

Pulling for the Cowboys to really wail into the 'Skins. Fun to watch, and the whining afterwords will also be pretty amusing. I do hope they put a bunch of the young 'uns in, and they play their hearts out.

I don't know if I can handle another winter of your negativity.

All the Cowboys have to do is just keep doing what they've been doing, and 4-12 is assured. Not worried about messing up the draft pick at all.

I can't believe I have this attitude right now- I never did before- but this season really changed me. Since the 7 game losing streak I've mentally mailed it in. I've been thinking about starting over in 2016 for a long time.
