It really cripples our offense to have to battle 1st and 15 or 1st and 20 every other drive.
Exactly how many penalties do you think Flo has a year? It's not as many as you think. That statement is a huge overexageration of the situation.

To release him without having a comparable replacement is crazy. He's still a very good player. Having said that we do need to draft his replacement as soon as possible.

He has enough of them at crucial times that every Cowboy fan recognizes it is a problem that has been going on for years now. More than 1 is too many.

Having your 60 million dollar quarterback in the hospital is of far greater concern to most teams than the ability to overcome a 1st and 15. Especially to teams with no backup.

Pick your battles dude.

Show me what LT has no penalties for the entire season. I agree that he can commit them at the worst time.

I'm pretty sure he lead the league in false starts.

He did but it wasn't an astronomical # as you guys are making it out to be. Pretty sure it was under or at 8.

Oh I think we grossly overpaid Barber. However, the guy, to date anyway, has shown heart - a rarity of this team of "celebrities".

That is Jerra being overenthusiastic and wanting to lock in a player. He did it with Crayton and unnecessarily with Ellis for what he was paid and what he produced -- average play and keeping Spencer on the bench.
Bad Jerra.

Boy, I would be shocked if you are right. How can we find out? I would guess about two a game.

Hey just wondering..Let's say Flo decides to retire..do they still take a cap hit? or do they just pay him the guarenteed money? Will we save money if he retires?

That's what I'm trying to figure out. Who can help us here?

He probably won't retire, so how much do we get stuck with against the cap if we show him the door?

??? Are you referring to Flozell's regular false starts? If so, I concur! :laugh2:

ALOT..theres no way we can cut him..you cant just replace a LT. I was just wondering what the difference is if a player retires during his contract or if he gets cut cap wise.

Flozell Adams has gotten 9 False start Penalties the last two years that is 2007 and 2008 years (to clarify 9 false starts each year)

The team as a whole

By now, we all know the Cowboys led the NFL with 119 penalties for a total of 952 yards. Dreadful. Anyway, I figured you all would like a look at the breakdown of penalty by unit. Not surprisingly, the offense led the way.

Offensive penalties: 64 (NFL rank: 1st)
Yardage: 462 Defensive penalties: 40 (NFL rank: 3rd)
Yardage: 328
Special teams penalties: 15 (NFL rank: T-13th)
Yardage: 162
Overall totals: 119 (NFL rank: 1st)
Yardage: 952 (Only Green Bay had more with 984 penalty yards on 110 flags)

It was in a thread on here a while back. I'm too lazy to look it up though. I hate searching on forums. :mad:
