I agree with whoever it was who said bill should be our gm but as a coach hes too stubborn.
and i also want zimmer gone
why do we not let newman follow opponents best reciever all over the field?
why cant newman play punt returner?
why does bill play so scared all the time?
and against about the defense.............there is no way our defense should be playing how it is with the players we have.ITS OBVIOUSLY THE HORRID SYSTEM.
*looks forward to the draft*
I can't believe you guys think this team is that good that Parcells is screwing it up...everyone here knows I can't stand Parcells...I've never liked him, and the idea of him coaching my beloved Cowboys makes me sick.
However, he has improved the personel, and he's building the team the correct way. He may have made some mistakes, and we may not like his conservative nature or the way he controls players by pushing them into a mold he likes (maybe even with JJ and the idea of sticking it in there for less of a loss rather than running with freedom to try and make a big play).
But it's not like he's taking a great team and ruining it, guys. Our LBs stink. I truly believe DAT is the only real LB on this team (can't call Ware a real LB yet) who could start on any other team in the NFL, and DAt probably wouldn't start on more than half of them. We have no FS and we're playing a 4 LB defense with 1/2 lb. Anyone who thinks Brady James, Shanlee, Fowler, or even Singleton are the type of LBs a team can hang its hat on should not be talking about wishing Parcels gone because you're delusional. These guys would be lucky to be playing Special Teams for most teams, certainly all the teams in our own division. I don't think DAT could even play for Washington, NY, or Philly. There is a world of difference between their LBs and ours.
We also have the worst FS situation around that I know of.
Our OL isn't that good. I haven't seen much of what was expected out of Rivera this year...he certainly is not dominant and doesn't look like a pro bowler. Pettitti is doing a great job for a 7th round draft pick rookie, but that's not saying much...he doesn't have a chance of starting anywhere else in our division. LA was supposed to be in better shape than ever, yet Sapp, who looks like he swallowed a VW out maneuvered him on Sunday and he and Flozell were the culprits that couldn't get any push at all on the right side.
As far as the Center position goes, we're still debating over who should start between Johnson who gets pushed around and Gurode who seems too dumb to get the calls right...what's that say about our OL?
The QB, WRs, TE, RBs, DL, and CBs are the strenghs of the team, but defenses don't do much without LBs and offenses don't do much without the OL.
We're better, but we're still not very good overall...I think that's a fact, but at least we have some strengths to build on, thanks to Parcells.
