I agree and if anytime needs to be made Jerry Jones needs to be aware that a lot of our problems stem from the fact that Mike McCarthy somehow forgets in training camp practices and in preseason this stuff was supposed to be worked out already he should have known that he was our back and there should have been no experimenting yeah you could use running back by committee but Rico should have been getting 18 to 22 carries from game one they should have tried to establish the run game they didn't he plays a completely different offense the first half of the year 2 years in a row with Prescott like some kind of spread some weird almost never under center literally almost no run game I mean it's just some of the worst play calling in game plans and schemes I've ever seen to be so different from your starters to your backups when I've seen the last five weeks would have made this team so much better from game one on had we used that type of game plan and philosophy why does it take a half a year for a coaching staff to finally wake up and decide how they wanna use their players and yes last year we did have our starters and he did wake up and offense did get better.
The problem is it shouldn't take that long for you to realize all this and in my opinion Rico was better than Tony last year and again he didn't get utilized properly yes Tony may have had more skills before his injury as far as speed and burst but he lost that and I don't care he was making $11 million you should have left him in that same role he had behind zeke and let Rico do the tough stuff and I bet Tony would have been more close to his old self had he not been dependent on as the primary back.
But hey that's just my opinion and now I'd like to keep Rico but if somehow some other team offers him too much money I'm letting him walk because running backs can be replaced guys like him can be found that's why he's an undrafted free agent you can get guys late in the draft which the Cowboys are really dumb 'cause even in the 5th 6th or 7th round there had been a better choice from what they may have picked to not getting any running backs at all in the draft was really dumb...
I think the guys worked about 4 million and now my opinion doesn't count but I'd offer him like three years $12 million and maybe make half of it guaranteed.. If not you have to wake up and realize that we may have to let him go because if he wants too much money many running backs are available that look like him for a lot less money than that contract would look like
but again I blame Mike McCarthy for most of our problems I like him as a head coach actually and if we had to be forced to have him here next year I get it it might be tough to find someone better but he needs his offensive coordinator duties ripped from him and I don't like this offense at all so I'd like a new offensive scheme and offensive staff because whatever it is they're doing for Cooper rush and the way they're running this offense with backups that looks better than our starters it's because that should have been being done from day one and the fact that it took them until most of our team was hurt to s....this two straight seasons it gets old....
I hope this embarrassment by the eagles, wakes up Jerry and any thought he had to bring his coaching staff back ended yesterday...
