Hard Pills to swallow as Cowboys fans

[RustyBourneHorse]

Above all, I knew Jerry wasn't going all in. We haven't done much in FA for years. A large part of my anger is his dishonesty with that. I would appreciate not feeling like my intelligence isn't being insulted to him. I'm not 19 anymore when I joined the older forum. I'm not going to just accept stuff blindly. But, if I can at least get an idea of what the plan might be, then fine. I can accept it.

What i would LIKE is for us to get Jeanty and some run stuffers. I would LIKE for us to get some players in FA that can play online or NT. I'd accept free agent signings that just don't work. All I'm asking for is effort.

I, like many of you, love the Cowboys. This is the team that I've pulled for since I was 6, and I always plan to do so. However, every fanbase comes to that moment where they need to understand certain truths. In other words, there are hard pills to swallow as fans. Here are some hard pills to swallow as Cowboys fans. I think the sooner we understand these and take these pills, the sooner we can understand the reality of our situation. Then, the sooner as fans we can do something about it.

1. Quitting on the team and not filling seats won't fix Jerry. For those of you who think that not going to games will take money away from Jerry, that's not how it works. Most of the seats are sold to corporate, and those that aren't bought by our fans will go to other fans. That's why there were seemingly more Lions fans than Cowboys fans on Sunday. It may seem like a slap to Jerry, but he's getting paid regardless.
2. We are a soft team because we are a soft fan base. Do you think, as I tried to point out in a thread earlier this week, that our division rivals would be allowed to quit mid game like our team did? Of course not! The other teams, even if they're not good like the Giants, at least give their all. Why? Because you can't quit in Philly, New York, Buffalo, or Boston. Their fans will never let you hear the end of it. Instead, the team in Dallas is soft because we are more willing to quit on them and let them do what they do. What we should be doing is going to the games and getting as ruthless to them as our rivals would be to their teams if they give the effort the Cowboys have at home in 2024. Dak said he wanted the vibes, let's give them the vibes we feel about them. If we can rattle the players, there's a chance it rattles Jerry.
3. We are not America's Team anymore. Nobody outside of the Dallas Cowboys fan base or organisation actually thinks that anymore. And that's okay! It puts an unnecessarily large target on our backs. I know where it comes from, but it doesn't change the fact that nobody actually sees is as that. We need to actually win to re-earn that nickname if we want it back.
4. The Dallas Media is soft, bought, and paid for by Jerry. You saw in the way Jerry treated "The Fan" how he was quick to point out that he can replace them. He tripled down on it recently. Part of the reason he's allowed to exist in his world instead of of reality is because he's surrounded by an echo chamber that only tells him what he wants to hear.
5. Part of the reason we fans are disliked is because some of us think year in year out it's our year. It's not! We are not always going to be contenders. Especially not with the inactive offseason we had. The fact things are going badly for the team should be the least surprising thing this season. Maybe, if we fans can be more honest about our team and realise that we are nowhere near a championship as some might think, then, we can approach things with clarity.
6. Jerry can't handle true criticism, and it showed in his recent media interviews. This isn't exactly a hard pill, but it's a pill that is surprising. However, this is the best pill of the 5. Jerry is desperate. He can tell that we aren't happy. In his desperation, he showed his true colours. He's a narcissist who can't handle criticism. We, as fans, can use this.

When you take these 6 pills, you actually realise that there's something as fans we can do about our situation, and it needs to start in Dallas as many of us are outside of Texas. Jerry showed he can't handle criticism, especially when he's desperate. What we need is to flood Dallas media with our frustrations. At games, we need to be as loud as possible. I'm talking "Jerry sucks" chants, billboards to troll Jerry, signs at the stadium, the works. There are more of us than there are of Jerry and his boys. They can't ban all of us. The reality of the situation is that, we are 3-3 and have a brutal schedule ahead. If we miss the playoffs, it's on Jerry for his offseason inactivity. However, as fans, we can demand more, and it's time we take a leaf from our rivals and learn how to actually show true passion about the team. Not the deluded idea that everything will work out and we will win the SB. That won't happen anytime soon. When we look at the reality of our situation, we can approach things with honesty and clarity. In so doing, we can actually approach the games by holding our team accountable more. We can tell the media what we honestly think about our teams.

In other words, we can give Jerry an honest offer.

This is Post Of The Year material.

I've taken MY 6 pills, .... and it wasn't fun. But as the old saying goes:

"what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger, unless instead of killing you it simply leaves you in a permanent vegetative state, which is often worse than death"

Catchy saying.

 

[GMO415]

I've been with this team for over 54 years. We are now a team that can only compete with .500 teams and below. It is what it is.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

We have to look at the world as it is...THEN hope. You can't hope first and then try to be objective. Won't happen.

Right, but, even more so, I just want to see effort from the FO. If he signed Henry, for example, and it didn't work or if we needed more, fine, I can accept that. At least he'd have tried. I can accept effort that just doesn't work. I just don't like feeling that they're not doing everything they can, if that makes sense. We all have to give our all in what we do, and so should they.

 

[AtomicDog]

I still love them but I have long since adjusted my expectations. I'm definitely not hard-core like I once was.

 

[CowboysLakerBamaFan]

And this needed a thread?

Many Cowboys fans like myself have known all if this for a couple of decades and been shouted down by Jerry and Garret and Dak apologists

So, go on, make these threads but look in the mirror first

You need to take your 6 pills.

It's not fun I know. But just open up.....that's right...and here comes the Choo Choo train.

CHOO CHOO!!!!

now that wasn't so bad, was it

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

I still love them but I have long since adjusted my expectations. I'm definitely not hard-core like I once was.

I'm still diehard as it is, but I'm certainly highly annoyed with this offseason and the fact I could tell this season was going to be bad.

There’s a few thing here that make me wonder if you thought or researched what you said before you said it.

“The team is soft because the fans aren’t more vocal” is this a serious thought ? I can think of 15 reasons why this team is soft before I blamed their toughness on the fans.

The media is soft, and paid for by Jerry. Again, for the 50th time, Jerry doesn’t pay the hosts on the fan. He also doesn’t give the station a dime. Stop listening to Jerry. 105.3 The Fan, and 90% of their hosts aren’t Jerry lovers, and have always shot straight. Don’t be lazy, listen to the shows every day and you will know that.

The Cowboys fan base doubles if not more than that, any other fan base in the country. As much as fans come from other cities to watch their team, Dallas doubles that amount every away game they play. Stop letting Packer fans convince you we aren’t America’s team. If the Cowboys ever won, you’d see just how many people love them. It would make you laugh.

Honest fans don’t think the Cowboys contend every year. Again, you’re a national media and SAS guy so I see why you’d think they do. But in reality, only casuals believe we are contenders every year. We know we haven’t really contended for 25-30 years.

[Creeper]

Another retread with a nepo baby on the coaching staff and hot garbage OC decisions. No thank you.

Let me be clear. I do not want to hire Bill Belichick as the next head coach. My point is I think it is inevitable that Jerry hires him. And I think there is at least one benefit to do so if Jerry allows Belichick to do it. We are stuck with Dak at QB because of the ridiculous contract Jerry gave him. To make the most of that, we need to build a defense that is physical and effective. I think Belichick will be good in that regard. But I would much rather Jerry go find some younger more innovative minds to coach this team.

Oh trust me, I dream of the day I can see us win one. I don't know what it's like as I was 3 last time we won.

 

[blueblood70]

Right, and I also don't like feeling this way. Do you think it's fun for me to make these threads? For crying out loud, I just got the link this week to secure my Chicago room. I would MUCH rather be making threads about how excited I am for MFF. I would MUCH rather make threads about how I am excited for an upcoming game, or breaking down something in excited for. I was wanting to make threads breaking down weaknesses and finding areas we have advantages on an opposing team. Instead, much like 2019 or 2020, it feels like I'm back to this stuff.

You've seen me on here before this season. I'm normally a much happier poster. It's just been difficult because of what I saw and what's transpired. Heck, my anger would be heavily reduced or removed if we were positioning for Jeanty and some better run stopping options. If this was a case like 2015 where it just didn't work and we could build up, fine, I can accept that too.

I think you get the picture with where my head is. I can accept a lot of different things. If I see that there's a positive direction that can be taken, I would gladly be among the first to take that position. However, the facts are the facts with where we are, and I can't turn a blind eye to the facts and reality.

I do know one thing Jerry Jones has never went two years in the draft without picking one of the top running backs it may not be Jeanty but there's more than one great running back coming out.. And by the way yes this kid looks out of the atmosphere great but what if he comes to the NFL and against NFL competition it's just a regular good running back and not generational we saw it with guys like Kyle Pitts hell my guy from the Longhorns what is Robinson done I mean bichon hasn't done much people were thinking about trading the whole drafts for both these guys like the New Orleans Saints did for Ricky Williams or the way we got a Herschel Walker trade you have to be careful and what your eyes see and yes I see why he looks like the best player in college right now but he also plays for a small school and a small conference.. I'm not saying cannot pick him I'm saying there are other running backs there's gotta be probably 5 to 8 running backs every year that could be NFL caliber starters and we just failed to get one this year...

This feels more like 2015 where they tried the running back by committee they tried to clear the books after getting rid of DeMarco Murray Jerry didn't like what he seen and went out got Ezekiel Elliott they will go get another good running back in this draft they will not do this every year this will be a lesson learned like they did with their wide receiver by committee they're always a year behind but they will get a top running back in this draft guaranteed.. You could put the lead pipe lock on it I don't know who it is and what round but if you look at some of the guys have come out in the 3rd through 5th rounds and I wish they would have picked up one of those guys I don't think we should be upset they didn't get Derrick Henry I understand that he's older and they were expecting him to fall off the Cliff anytime soon and decided to stay away from paying a guy $9 million that might just be on his way out I don't think anybody really saw this coming I mean if so why did the Tennessee Titans not make a play to keep him...

So I'm not upset they didn't make a play for Henry I have no regrets yes I wish he was here but yes the draft not picking up a guy somewhere moving up into the late 4th round by packaging two or three of the ones we didn't need and at least getting one of these young players.

Hell I'm still not sure I know Jerry and Steven says they're not doing anything before the trade deadline we could end up getting a running back I know dalvin cook can be brought up and maybe he got something to offer that somebody doesn't but I believe The Jets or Miami or one of these teams that have a lot of young running backs or too many of them would be willing to let one go and maybe it happens maybe I don't know maybe something's gonna happen before the San Francisco game we don't know we've been shocked before Jerry made the trade for Mark Cooper maybe once it settles down and he sees the reality that something by Monday starts to brew and we bring in some kind of player that could help us besides the ones coming back...

 

[Typhus]

The fact that it gets shouted down makes this thread necessary imo. It's quite revealing those who don't want to believe the truth.

I know you are a young fan and understand the enthusiasm, but until fans quit filling Jerry's bank account the song remains the same.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

I do know one thing Jerry Jones has never went two years in the draft without picking one of the top running backs it may not be Jeanty but there's more than one great running back coming out.. And by the way yes this kid looks out of the atmosphere great but what if he comes to the NFL and against NFL competition it's just a regular good running back and not generational we saw it with guys like Kyle Pitts hell my guy from the Longhorns what is Robinson done I mean bichon hasn't done much people were thinking about trading the whole drafts for both these guys like the New Orleans Saints did for Ricky Williams or the way we got a Herschel Walker trade you have to be careful and what your eyes see and yes I see why he looks like the best player in college right now but he also plays for a small school and a small conference..

Sure, and there are a few backs in the second round or third round I'd be happy with instead. The point is, I can get behind a plan that leads to a better run game and a more physical team next year. As for the oline, I think a lot of that might be scheme. I think if we can get an OC here that focuses more on physical oline play like a Bill Callahan, then maybe we can really hone in on a better rushing attack, which would make Dak's life easier, and the life of the rest of the team much easier.

As for Jeanty, he ran well against a really good Oregon defence. His rushing style reminds me almost of a DH/AP. I think he's the kind of back that 1. Will take better care of himself than Zeke did and 2. Should last a while. I think, between him and a physical OC who can tailor a better blocking scheme for our oline, our offense is easier to fix in the offseason. Following that, getting a really good NT and some physical linebackers in the draft and in FA (yes, it means Jerry signing free agents), I think this team can get good next year. Or at least I hope we can. Either way, this would be a type of plan I could go for and sink my teeth into.

 

[spice]

and ? Does that make you feel better I'm trying to get an understanding here that if this really is all true and you think things are never gonna change and you really think all those things are 100% facts and while the Jones family owns this team nothing's ever gonna change why are you here why are you following this team why are you literally still a fan that takes extra time out of their day to type something that long at least we're not like about 20 other teams in the NFLI know I'm gonna keep saying that and why those things might be true above this clown show you call the clown show it could be worse the grass is not always greener on the other side do I need to remind you that we are top 6IN regular season win percentage the last decade or more we've been to the playoffs 5 at last eight years we have regularly won our division in fact we won two division titles in the last three years and need to remind you that you do need to be relative in the regular season and we're still playing in primetime then as bad as things seem around here there are some franchises that wish they did some of those things I just mentioned that they are actually as terrible as you describe our team I realize we want better I realize we want more I realize we want to get past the second round of the playoffs and that's our biggest obstacle but there are other teams like the Cleveland Browns who haven't even won a division title I think since 1986..​

Seriously,

as bad as people make things out to be for the Dallas Cowboys and the front office and how they don't do this they don't do that and regular GM would fix everything and we need a new ownership we need to move the team/!

I look around the NFL see none of those things are true they're definitely not true on a regular basis it'd be more an anomaly just like this whole all in attitude it works once a decade most teams who go all in have not been winning the Super bowls except for one once like I said an anomaly would be the Rams going get Matthew Stafford and loading up their team but the rest of these teams if winning the Super bowl is the goal they spent a lot of money in Philly and a lot of money even with San Francisco and yes I realize san Francisco's a better team the last decade than the Dallas Cowboys because they've done more in the playoffs but they still haven't won a Super Bowl since 1994..

So you can complain all you want, we can all complain all we want ,we can have our own opinions,

but remember the way you describe our team our team that could be the New York Giants and Washington that we beat on a regular basis the last decade we could be the Cleveland Browns or The Jets or the Broncos, they haven't done anything...

there are about 20 teams, I guarantee that wish and maybe it's only inside ,and they're not willing to admit it that our clown show GM in front office has been beating them on a regular basis as far as wins and making the playoffs and winning divisions winning 36 games and two division titles and going to the playoffs three straight years, it's not an embarrassment,

it's not being mediocre, it's not a clown show ,

yes it's falling short of where your goals should be and losing these games in a manner we've lost them at home is embarrassing and we should be upset but you all keep describing this team as if we are the Cleveland Browns and we're nowhere near as bad as them.​

And again,

I mean 20 other teams that we're better than almost every year there's a reason we're still talked about all over the Internet on every talk show all content creators all media outlets and the league keep putting us in prime time, you don't do that for bad teams.

Let me say it, better yes, we are a bad playoff team,​

​

we are bad at building a team that get us past the second round in the playoffs but we are not a bad NFL team in any way shape or form and I get it you want better,​

​

but you guys don't realize the old saying the grass is not always greener on the other side... We can blow this team up and start from scratch like some teams have I mean what did the Oilers do they moved they became the Titans and now we have the Texans and neither one of those three teams have a Super Bowl not one amongst all three it happens a lot we seen the Browns do it they created a whole new team and have done nothing we've seen the Jaguars start out pretty well but lately what have they done they come always are blowing their team up they're always starting from scratch I think they have a new owner don't they and what has he done the last five years?​

I'm just saying be careful what you wish for we all want better but the things you're asking for are not automatic blueprints for success yo are you watching a different NFL than I am?

We watch teams with regular ownership regular front offices that do regular things with regular GMs, constantly be bad every year make worse decisions than Jerry they pay their quarterbacks and a lot of their players that never end up ever doing anything in the playoffs either....​

I'm not saying what you wrote is all untrue, and you're not wrong for saying it,

but I think the way fanbase is described this team in this front office you need to compare it against about 25 other teams that are not better than us yearly we want to be the Kansas City Chiefs but so do everybody else maybe we want to be a little more aggressive like Philly but Philly hasn't done much either they have won Super Bowl and their entire existence and yes lately they got to another Super Bowl but we beat them in the division on a regular basis I mean yes the 49ers are super aggressive they have a great team and they haven't won a Super Bowl since 1994 and yes they are better than us but we're talking about 5 other teams that maybe are on a regular basis better than the Dallas Cowboys but the rest of them are you really that delusion that you think our team is really that bad you're calling our front office a clown show and that they don't know what they're doing and they're clueless or delusional they're out of touch and yet we're still one of the top teams in the NFL on a regular basis what by accident?

Feel better?

 

[Ranching]

Now I’ve got the song stuck in my head. Thanks coach.

Eddie Kendricks, 1974. I had the 45 and played it on my little record player. Had to put that plastic piece in the middle because the hole was too large. I was five.

I think it number 68 on my old jukebox. Salud!

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

I think it number 68 on my old jukebox. Salud!

I don't know who Eddie Kendricks is .

 

[starfan1]

Part of the problem. "Jerry I am upset with you, now take my money."

None of these suggestions hit Jerry in the pocketbook. Opinions and pom-poms do not move Billionaires.

Yes the laws of economics are in play here . Jerry is a crappy GM maybe even a crappy owner but hes a savvy business guy. someone going to a game once a year not going now has 0 impact on game. Now season ticket holder may impact it some but my guess is there's a waiting list

Jerry does alot through that stadium that isn't football related that generates revenue. If you think a couple thousand fans fans mad because we haven't won a SB in 30 and signed a QB they don't like boycotting things is going to make a difference I have some swamp land in AZ to sell you

skelator going to meet his maker is the only thing that may change things

 

[blueblood70]

Will take better care of himself than Zeke did and 2. Should last a while. I think, between him and a physical OC who can tailor a better blocking scheme for our oline, our offense is easier to fix in the offseason. Following that, getting a really good NT and some physical linebackers in the draft and in FA (yes, it means Jerry signing free agents), I think this team can get good next year. Or at least I hope we can. Either way, this would be a type of plan I could go for and sink my teeth into.

I get that I have all that information on this kid I'm just saying buyer beware sometimes they're not always deliver what is being sold in the draft we see it all the time...

Not that I wouldn't want him but I'm just saying don't be sold on one guy it's not about rolling all your chips into a running back and picking another running back in the top 10 I wouldn't be upset but we've seen lots of players disappoint what they were supposed to be we heard generational talent with Kyle Pitt some of this place said the Cowboys should give up their next three drafts as far as first rounders to get up and get this guy and he's not better than ferguson i'd say they're about the same. Maybe he's on the wrong team and like I said we've seen some running backs the last three or four years that were supposed to be the best hell in my opinion breece hall overrated how can you not look at breece hall as overrated he has all the talent in the world but he hasn't even had 1000 yard season they talk about this kid as if he was the next coming of Adrian Peterson...

When I watch Jeanty run he looks to me I gotta go further old school like Ricky Williams without hopefully the weed smoking problem for his anxiety I'm a Texas Longhorn fan and Ricky Williams had that kind of talent in college and in the Big 12 against tough talent and he did play well in the NFL given his circumstances so yes he looks like Ricky Williams and I would take him but I'm saying there are other almost as good running backs coming out as well... You might wanna get your defensive tackle another wide receiver or something like another linebacker an outside pass rushing linebacker slash defensive end in the first round and then get your running back in round two or three.. But my point is Jerry's gonna bring in another running back since when has he knocked we've always had one of the top running backs in the league around here, he will get another one..
