How Many Cowboys Would Start on the Eagles?

[stilltheguru]

If this thread was made last year how would it go?

 

[sjmike]

Osi would start or be a top rotation guy

There is no way Osi would start over Carter or Jordan Davis

 

[stilltheguru]

Dak would start

Hahaha you trolling unless you really think hurts is wack

 

[Whirlwin]

Bell's not starting over C.J. Gardner-Johnson or Blankenship. Bland's not starting over Slay or Mitchell..

He is if you wanna play man defense

 

[Whirlwin]

Hahaha you trolling unless you really think hurts is wack

Jalen hurts is a choke artist he’s gonna lose another Super Bowl because of it

 

[Whirlwin]

From the Atlanta game until he went out for the season, Diggs was very aggressive and willing to tackle.

Not bad for three games

 

[TheCoolFan]

Parsons and Lamb and that's probably it. They already have a great OL and are fielding a top defense with those LBs/DBs so it's not like they really need anyone else from the Cowboys.

@Scottishcowboy asks a question on another thread....how many Cowboys would start on the Eagles? Take out special teams and I would say two, Micah and Ceedee. Doesnt that show how far away we are from competing with the Eagles? How many do you say?

Lamb
Bland
Parsons

Maybe Tyler Smith over Beckton.

Aubrey and Turpin.

That’s it.

 

[StarOfGlory]

Tyler S would.

He plays the same position as Dickerson. Both are about even.

 

[StarOfGlory]

The cornerbacks play a different system, for Man coverage. I would definitely take our guys.

I’d still take Mitchell.

Hurts has a 5-3 playoff record, lost the SB two years ago on a last second field goal to Mahomes and the Chiefs and had a strong game. But you go on believing he's a "choke artist".

 

[BoyzBlaster]

Micah of course. But after that it's iffy. Osa would get in the rotation some. Tyler it's hard to say. Ceedee but he might be #3 behind Smith who is very underrated and seems like he is willing to be the #2, block, etc. Which are not really things Lamb brings to the table.

 

[75boyz]

Lamb
Bland
Parsons

Maybe Tyler Smith over Beckton.

Aubrey and Turpin.

That’s it.

Cool.
Same ones I listed.

I said yesterday if you combined all the Commanders players and all the Cowboys players the Eagles would still be better by a good bit. They are loaded with talent.

 

[Hawkeye0202]

Dak would start

I know you are joking but did you notice the shot Hurts took at Sirianni about taking the straitjacket off him? Implying Sirianni didn't fully trust him. Perhaps his issue with turnovers may have something to do with it but it was obvious by Hurt's tone he didn't like it.

 

[J817]

Dak would start

He would start if Hurts or whoever his backup is (idc enough to Google him) was out.

Jalen hurts is a choke artist he’s gonna lose another Super Bowl because of it

The super bowl is a critical game for him. It's the last hurdle he can't seem to clear.

Sirianni is not paid anywhere near what Hurts is paid. Only has one year left on his contract, so isn’t guaranteed beyond next season. If he was going to go down in flames as Eagles head coach he should at least get to go down on his own terms.

I wouldn’t bet Sirianni will get an extension sans actually winning the Super Bowl.

It's not that simple.

Success in the NFL does not depend on talent alone. There are numerous other circumstances like coaching, opportunity, and timing.

We may never have known about Tom Brady if Bledsoe had stayed healthy. Brady might come in the following year and compete against a new 2nd round pick just to be the backup.

A player might be a great DE in a 4-3 but If the new coach switches to a 3-4 then that player's career will be affected.

Would Michael Irvin be in the Hall of Fame is Emmitt was never there to impact the opponent defense?

There are hundreds of such stories that illustrated how the nuances of a team sport impact each individual that participates.

When teams succeed, players gain recognition through their exposure in the games that are remembered.

However, many more players in the league could be Hall of Famers if their circumstances were different.

Archie Manning played for the Saints when free agency didn't exist. He was with them during some of their worst years, 1971 to 1981. Although he made the Pro Bowl twice, despite little to no help, he never played in a single playoff game for the Saints because they never went.

Manning's best record for a season was 8-8. Switch him with Terry Bradshaw of the Steelers and even Brady wouldn't have topped him.

 

[visionary]

Prescott still better than Jalen

LOL
