Just imagine how much nastier & scarier this unit would be!

Loving it

Coming from both ends, my Lord! Nasty. Because whomever lined up on DL side, that would have freed him up to get to the QB.

The Bills want to win a SB this year. That's why they don't care that Miller is 33. I don't think it was a good idea for the Cowboys. Miller is not the player he used to be, and at minimum they're paying him 3 years at 15M per.

It would be nice if our 2nd round pick made an impact.

Would have been nice if Cowboys wanted to win SB this season too.

Yeah I know. Sometimes the unexpected happens. Our team could be better than we thought. But Miller would have been a risk. They weren't willing to take that risk. The majority of the league, not the Cowboys, make moves based on the previous season.

The risk is signing Randy Gregory, a less reliable player, than HOF bound just helped Rams to SB Von Miller.

The risk is signing the less talented less catalytic Dorance Armstrong because Stephen Jones insulted Randy Gregory and he refused to take lowball offer with unreasonable contingencies over signing the more proven still leading SB caliber defenses Von Miller.

Signing Von Miller would have been akin to the Charles Haley acquisition in the 90's that catapulted Cowboys into SB champions.

Von Miller + Micah Parsons would have made this defense SB caliber and elite beyond any other defense in current NFL.

Let me say it again, Von Miller opposite Micah Parsons would have made this defense UNSTOPPABLE.

just imagine if we had drafted TJ Watt instead of Taco Charton ... to combine with eventual Parsons ..

how do you scheme them both ...as well as how do you pay them both ..? :rolleyes:
Guessing but I’m thinking it’s minimum 50/50, if they had draft Watt then they would have continued to trade down until they felt comfortable taking the next CB!

"Von Miller to Dallas?" was just the latest in a long line of names who used the Cowboys
as pawns to jack up their new contract. I remember when Ray Lewis was "coming to Dallas".

Ray Lewis was not from Texas.

Ray Lewis family does not live in Texas.

Ray Lewis did not have 2 way communication with the best players on Cowboys in effort to get him on the team.

Von Miller is a lifelong Cowboys fan.

Of course you don't.

You do I don't. Who cares? I'm guessing you're the type who quit talking to his brother because he votes different then you. Neither one of us know so why can't we just agree to disagree? What a dieing thing in this world...agreeing to disagree. Sigh.... I was born 40 years too late. Fine let's get this over with.

You're right, I'm wrong and I'm sorry if I offended you by disagreeing on something that really doesn't matter almost at all. I'll try to do better next time. You are really smart and creative and funny.
