General thoughts

[ShiningStar]

You really came to your own conclusion here. I posted it to show where our running backs were compared to the running backs most people wanted at some point (though I forgot to add Peterson). My point mostly was that we made the right choice not resigning Murray.



I don't see a trade happening, but I think one should happen. I think this is our year and I would be devastated if we missed the playoffs before we could show that.




We've dominated the Giants the last few times we've played them. I feel like you're living in the past. Also if you think I'm using hindsight regarding Free and Carr, please ask someone to help you out.

This is me calling for Free not to be resigned back in December last year.

Here is me saying Carr and Claiborne don't fit this defense back in May.

Here is me saying we should have gotten Cromartie and Tillman back in March. Notice the lack of Carr.

nothing impressive, still picking the same guys everyone else is. Free, not impressive most cowboy fans saw that. So basically you wnt to pat youself on the back for having the same opinion everyone else had, wonderful kudos, take a bow.


as for your Giant comment, we own the series, thats dominant, the last win was more of an embarrassment than a win and i would hardly call the last 5 wins dominant. Wins, yes, dominant no.

I said it was a problem and many people suggested he was not a problem. Most Cowboys fans saw that? You aren't being honest here.

We've beaten the Giants 5 of the last 6 games, the score doesn't always tell what happened during the games. The Cowboys have consistently outplayed the Giants the last few seasons. Seems like you're unaware of this as well.

With the Giants likely to lose at this rate, we're certainly still very much in this thing, especially if we can pull out a win against them next week.

The Giants loss yesterday, I hope would compel Jerry Jones to make sure this team can make it through the absence of Romo. The Chicago Bears are now 2-4, I'm still hoping we can take some things off their hands. Namely Matt Forte or I'd like us to get some wide receiver help, but I don't see that really happening.

Players that need to go next year:
No surprise the players that I said needed to go this year: Carr and Free.

I'm trapped. Part of me wants to focus entirely on upgrading the secondary, the other part of me wants us to do whatever we can to draft Ezekiel Elliot. Really wish we had signed Cromartie and Tillman.

Running back notes:
Matt Forte - 507 yards (1st in the nfl)
Todd Gurley - 314 yards (16th in the nfl)
Melvin Gordon - 299 yards (18th in the nfl)
Joseph Randle - 289 yards (22nd in the nfl)
DeMarco Murray - 239 yards (31st in the nfl)
Darren McFadden - 129 yards (57th in the nfl)

One can always dream. That's all you seem to be doing. Cowboys aren't drafting a RB that you want because their model doesn't allow for paying that position. I know you disagree with the model but that is the FO point of view. So stick with upgrading the secondary... that's what's more likely to happen.

a few games Dallas got by, lets not go on a rah rah cheerleader here. 1 game was pure dominance and the others have been wins, with the first game of this season being a complete embarrassment.

omg fans have been harping on Carr and Clairborn except the cheerleaders on Clariborn until he proved them wrong. Come on, get off it you arent really laying down breaking news.

I don't recall calling it breaking news, but for my general thoughts I am re-establishing that they need to be replaced in the offseason as a priority.

As for the opener being a complete embarrassment...

436 yards vs 289 yards
37:10 vs 22.50 TOP
27 vs 18 first downs

It was a sloppy game, but that doesn't change the fact that anyone who actually watched the game saw the Cowboys dominate the Giants...

Why am I still responding to you?

how do you call that dominant? Sloppy,embarrasing, but not dominant

They dominated the play on the field and pushed them around on offense and defense. Not sure what else to tell you.

I haven't watched a game live since the DVR came out. I usually wait an hour or two, and then usually catch up to the game. It's very hard to watch all the flags, commercials, replays, reviews, etc. Ugh.

I do however pay attention to the game day thread...priceless.

Me same. Saves a lot of time and pain with the same ole commercials. Plus I get a charge FF through a halftime Bob Costas political rant or a Joe Buck drama piece when the game is not on.
