I am concerned for the future of this season

With the recent injury news to Micah and Lawrence, this defense is going to have a very difficult time getting to the QB.

Even with Micah rushing last night, the pass rush was near non existent. Even blitzes were ineffective.

Now they're are removed by injury for a few weeks (maybe more), I don't see anyone stepping up. Kneeland has done solid as a rookie from what I've seen, but he's still a rookie.

With the defense giving up more yards and more points, the offense that has only 1 weapon (besides Dak), is going to have their work cut out for them and I don't see them doing enough to win football games in the National Football League.

Schemes and good coaching are already non existent.

We very well could lose our next 4 games.

I hope I'm wrong.

It's not typically positive to take away talent from a unit still trying to find it's footing.

The only silver lining is neither player was having all that good of a season to this point.

Would be nice to have Armstrong or someone else to plug in.

This team has ZERO chance of winning a championship. Fact.
Absolutely, even with a 100% healthy roster. NO WAY, unless JJ makes some blockbuster trade or something, but even then, that would likely be for draft picks, not players.

Come on, Cowboys fans, just be happy if this team simply doesn't fold under the pressure and becomes a complete embarrassment, though in the long run, a high draft pick may help this team the most.

McCarthy has NO CHANCE with this roster to make a playoff run, it's not him. The Packers playoff blowout against the Cowboys last season, THAT'S McCarthy: Dead. Coach. Walking.

In light of today's injury news, there is very little reason to be optimistic looking forward
there was little reason before, unless you were delusional

:flagwave:

I'm actually kind of happy to see what other players on this roster can do. If they stink it up, oh well...the big-money starters have ALREADY stunk it up so...

Sometimes a backup player really steps up big unexpectedly and surprises everyone. It's too early in the season to give up. There's 13 games left and we just have to stick behind the team and stay positive.

To be fair, it had zero chance before the two injuries. Now the chances of making the playoffs went down dramatically.
There was really only a slim chance of that based on how they have been playing. Both sides of the ball play like the Packers stole their manhood last January.

It should be interesting to see which down-the-roster players emerge to fill the large empty shoes.
