This is Stephen Jones being an accountant. It is not about talent acquisition.

Unfortunately, it's hard to buy a Super Bowl anymore. The cap looms

 

[cowboy_ron]

Why oh why couldn't we have faced Brock when we played them

Watching Brock and Savage play we should be to fleece Denver OR Houston out of a couple of #1's for Cooper rush............oh, wait.....we have "trader Jer"..............we would be the ones getting fleeced.

In 1992 the Cowboys had an elite franchise QB who was about to usher in a dynasty playing flawlessly in the post-season.

He should know better.

I’m well aware of that. This FO doesn’t value the most critical positions on a football team.

Quarterback being one.

And Safety. And defense in general. It’s maddening.

 

[Tabascocat]

Ah my bad.

I will say that Jim Harbaugh will be coming off a very disappointing year at Michigan,...maybe he'd be interested going back to the pros...?

Maybe but it won't be in Dallas. Garrett is entrenched in this organization

 

[CF74]

Don’t worry, he will be awesome next week

The crazy thing is they are due for some success again....

 

[Aven8]

The Cowboys went from aggressive spending to frugal. There's a whole void there in the middle which is probably where you want to be but even then you have to make the right decisions.

That's Jerry and now Stephen.

Maybe we should try Jerry Jr or Spaulding next?

Who's this Mr. Peanut Butter?

Why isn't there a Mr. Jelly?

We ain't never got two things that match.

We need a Fallen Star then.....

And Ryan will be unstoppable. That's how it works for us.
The Eagles come to town and all of a sudden the home team looks like they went and got Keanu Reeves and his entire crew of replacement players.

And that is why we fail.

 

[haleyrules]

Garrett never runs out of those.

I bet he is praying for Elliotts suspension

 

[Alexander]

Can't tell if you're serious.

 

[Zordon]

All the more reason we should have done it. They don't have to worry about their jobs.

I'm in a weird place. Zeke Elliott may be my favorite player of all time but Carson Wentz should be a Cowboy. That position is just much more important.

Carson with our defense and trainee HC is not the same Carson you see on the Eagles.

If the Cowboys front office could find a clue about building a defense similar to the Eagles, hell just give me half what they have, then you will see that Dak/Zeke is sufficient to win a Super Bowl.

 

[ghst187]

Even Red Zone isn't worth watching today these games are so bad.

Papa Johns will go out of business if this keeps up.
Lesser teams, lesser football

 

[MrPeanutbutter]

Maybe this is why the NFL ratings are down

 

[cowboy_ron]

I bet he is praying for Elliotts suspension

yea, Jerry would probably extend him again.

 

[Sydla]

We spent well over a decade swinging for the fences in the draft and signing big free agents and it got us nowhere.

And not spending a penny on any quality FA instead shopping for the Nolan Carroll's and Demontre Moore's of the world isn't working either.

They better change how they approach FA this offseason or they are going to be staring up at the Eagles again and again and again.

QB is not the problem in Dallas. Wentz wouldn't have changed this team around. The problem is that garbage defense

Right. I think Wentz in Dallas would look more like Romo in Dallas than Dak and Dallas, but empirically the results are still the same.

Cleveland is paying $850K to Brock Osweiler today. And Cleveland is something like $40M under the cap.
