How far are we away?

A galaxy far far away

2016 was closest. We’re not gonna be. Ack around there for a second. Dak and receivers can’t take pressure off of Zeke. Lee can stay on field. Tyron has a CHRONIC back issue. Team

As long as we have this version of Dak the defense will have to be at least top 10 to compete.

To me I would draft

1st round - MLB
2nd - 1 Tech (6’4 320 LBs)
3rd - RE (Keep doing it every year until you find a keeper)
4th - Speed WR
4th - RB
5th - Another Hitchens type LB
5th on down - BPA

I don’t know which FAs will be available but i wouldn’t mind doing what NE does and trade a 2nd or 3rd rounder for proven vet.

No issues, whatsoever with this whole layout. Lee is so detrimental that you have to start replacing him NOW. This team can’t pick D LINE to save its life.

True. Was proud of myself for not watching tonight. Jerry deserves EVERY piece of this.

I think that's a Marinelli issue.

.5 get rid of Jason Carrot.

.0001 Find a real GM

If fans turn and start hurting Jerry in his pocket, AKA Wade.. things might change,

 

[ilykdrama]

I think that's a Marinelli issue.

Agreed. But since Jerry won’t fire Marinelli, you have to draft Luke Keuchly’s across the board.

The ONLY way things will change, and this is INARGUABLY the most accurate take on this team.

 

[Blackspider214]

They ALL have to go. Garrett most of all.

Every other position outside of Witten's has changed with the same disappointing results.

There only one thing left to change.

It's time to move on from Witten or vastly diminish his role. We need a TE that can stretch the field. Witten can barely move better than a corpse. Sure he can catch anything but his value to this offense compared to his salary is not doing much anymore.

 

[Cmac]

Miles away....no playmakers, no depth, no coaching. 13-3 was strictly off talent and surprise.

Miles away....no playmakers, no depth, no coaching. 13-3 was strictly off talent and surprise.

We also have no speed.

This has been an issue for 5 years now and the only way Garrett and company sought to address it was by playing Lance Dunbar.

[Staubacher]

Well we went 13-3 and decided to go into rebuild mode; mishandle free agency; hope the NFL would go light on Zeke, and do nothing to build upon success.

 

[waving monkey]

This is a legitimate question. How far are we away from contending? What do we need at a minimum to have a chance of winning a super bowl?

I think we need:

1 starting lb, 1 backup lb.
2. RT-- move Collins back to guard. Keep Cooper as depth
3. Get rid of Dez -- high cap, low performance, head case, problematic
4. Get rid of Witten. Either make Hanna the answer or draft one
5. Draft a TRUE 1 Tech
6. Get a backup RB.
7. Draft or get a safety--After today I'm ready to move on from Jones. I haven't been on that wagon until today.

I follow you drift I'm still not selling Bjones.
Our big three needs D1,TO,[LB [Rogoun Smith] is very interesting.]

 

[JW82]

A coaching staff away.

It's not about the players, it's about these coaches.

Agreed. You shouldn’t need a probowler at every position to be a contender.

 

[Section446]

We're far away, we need four new starters in the secondary, gotta replace Lee and Smith sooner rather than later.

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

Actually, there is something we can do about it. Who would have thought 3-4 years ago that the NFL fans as a whole, would stop going to games and watching games? I would have told you that you were nuts. It's happening and the NFL is feeling it big time. If it can be done on an NFL level, why can't it be done on a team level here in Dallas?

 

[Cowboy_Shawn]

A coaching staff away.

It's not about the players, it's about these coaches.

Bingo.

You can tweak the roster all you want but at the end of the day if Jason Garrett and co. are still calling the shots then all those roster moves pretty much equate to shuffling deck chairs on the Titanic.
