There’s a lot of pressure to be a Dallas Cowboy and I think that pressure significantly increases when they get in the playoffs, and they tend to start big games way more nervous or I think tense might be the better word.
I don’t think that’s on the coach(es) but you can have your own opinion on that. I’ve played in big games and if you have too, you probably know the feeling. The bigger the stage - the more you don’t want to make a mistake/fail/lose and it really magnifies if the other team gets a lead & that lead starts to build.
Nevertheless, the season is over and it is what it is. Here are my thoughts regarding the roster. You can critique it all you want, but Dak is a top 10 QB PERIOD. I’m not debating that with anyone because if you don’t think he’s a top 10 QB you’re just flat out wrong.
QB - Top 10
HB core - Top 10 (Pollard needs to take over primary duties - Zeke can block on 3rd down)
WR core - Top 5 (hope to retain Gallup or Wilson but we might draft a cheaper option)
TE core - Top 10 (Schultz is a good TE and we can cut Jarwin to retain Schultz)
Oline - Top 5 (key pieces are getting up there in age)
Dline - Top 10 (this unit got significantly better from last year)
LB Core - Top 10* (best all around LB in the league)
DB Core - Top 15 (must keep Jayron & either draft a really good CB or hope Bossman develops into a really good #2 or maybe even a #1 - he certainly has the speed for it)
P- Top 5 (hope he stays)
K- Replace immediately
Special teams - Top 5/10 (4 or 5 blocked punts is insane)
