Is what you are seeing from the 2024 Dallas Cowboys surprising anyone?

Our season is going just about the way I thought it would. It’s going about the way most of us thought it would, which is why a lot of fans were down on the team entering the season. We suffered a playoff debacle and did virtually nothing in free agency. We lost a number of players and it was pretty obvious we weren’t going to be as good a team as we’ve had the past three seasons. Now we’re suffering some key injuries on defense.

I’ve been right for three seasons, and I didn’t even know it I predicted nine and eight. So it’s not surprising me this is where I thought they would be.

Nobody is surprised. I bet 90%+ of posters had us 1-2. We knew the offense would suck, we knew the defense was bad (maybe not THIS bad), and we knew this was a lame duck staff. I don’t know who you are scolding OP. If you were looking at this board all summer heading into the season there was zero optimism.
There was optimism for Trance for some odd reason.

I’d guess they regret not firing Big Mike.

hes lost all of his credibility.
Why for 3 12-5 seasons? Because the GM can't comprehend you win in the trenches?

You really believe changing coaches is going to fix Jeruh???

He didn't fire him and he wasn't going to fire DQ. He made public his stance on "dead coaching contracts." It doesn't mean he won't fire a coach, obviously, but he's going to give that coach the benefit of the doubt time and again.

Part of it is Jerry being cheap, the other part I believe is he's terrified to make an incorrect aggressive move.

I think Jerry is perfectly fine standing by and waiting to see if MM can right the ship.
A ship with massive holes in it. Only waiting we be to see if it sinks fast or slowly.

It was once a proud, historic franchise built on success. The beginning of the end was when Jimmy was pushed out , now decades later it’s a trash can organization, Jerry ran it into the ground. Nothing here is surprising and the kiss of death was extending Dak “ Captain Choke: Prescott.

Fellow Dallas fans.....

If what you are seeing from the 2024 Dallas Cowboys surprises anyone, then you are blinded by your loyalty and fanaticism.
Sure, like in years past, I will be ridiculed for pointing this out as I have also stated that Jerry Jones continues to sell FOOLS Gold
( also known as pyrite). A worthless stone, the fools many people seeking to be rich. Searching for REAL gold, miners
fall for the this fake stone.

Jerry sells optimism, words and hope each and every season for the past 28 years. And over the stretch of time, fans scoop
up these worthless nuggets and try to sift through sand to find the RICH stone, only to be let down, once again with the
fools gold.

Entering 2024, after yet another embarrassing season ending loss, Jerry throws out more fools gold with "All-In" phrases
This time, Dallas fans use their gold pan and find more sand with fools gold but not buying into this false prophets rhetoric.

But this team lost their 1,000 rusher, the Hall of Fame left tackle and two starting DTs. Replacing each with rookies or
past their time players trying to have one more NFL season. In addition, filling out their roster with undrafted players.

We are also sold that the Cowboys draft so well under Will McClay. Maybe it is alittle better but still a HUGE reason
this team can even see a NFC Conference game, let alone a Superbowl. Mazi is a 1st rd bust and the other DT was a
2nd rd bust in Tryson Hill. Taco Carlton was another 1st rd bust. And let's not even go through the many years of 2nd rd disappointments
When this franchise keep depending on The Draft to fill their team and not enough of those players do not "pan out", this
franchise looks to get "cheap" bottom basement players and they are usually from bad teams that didn't even want them.

Jerry Jones was asked a question about 10 years ago that if he was the GM of the New York Yankees and had the same output he is producing
with the Cowboys, what would happen? Jerry replied, HE WOULD BE FIRED. But because he is not accountable to anyone,
the results are Daniel Synder-like. ( Former owner of the Commanders). At least Mr. Synder sold the team. Jerry's PRIDE is why Cowboys fans are
seeing the destruction.

So watch our Cowboys like you do as a TV show or movie. Entertainment for a few hours with no expectations.
But if you fall into the trap again, keep the receipt and return the fools gold but know, you will get nothing in return because the stone is worthless.
Nothing about this team surprises me anymore.

I knew this was a throwaway season. What’s funny is Jerry doesn’t have many seasons left yet he’s ok throwing one away.

People keep saying Jerry is stupid.
I don’t think he’s stupid.
He’s knows exactly what he’s doing.
And he does it very well.
