That's just silly. Dissolve the Franchise? C'mon. I'm all for giving up on the season and playing for draft position, cleaning house with the coaching staff (completely gutting it from head coach on down), and cutting numerous worthless players... but dissolving the Franchise? That would be a little overkill, I think.
We could fire all of the coaches because it's clear after yesterday that they all suck. Start with Zimmer. We didn't get one turnover returned for a touchdown. Not one! Stopping the other team and making their offense look like a pop warner squad is nice and all... but we gotta score on defense. Two INT's are good... but we gotta score defensive touchdowns!
Being one of the most dominant defenses in the NFL just isn't where we need to be at this time.
And the players? Well, I've learned today by reading on this board that Roy Williams is actually tackling players low, by their legs. We can't have that. I say if he can't start tackling high... he needs to go.
Bledsoe, although he's by far the best QB we've had here since Aikman, needs to go. I read a thread today that said he has the wrong tempo on his throws. Crap! No wonder we lost. I also read that he's a lumbering idiot with no intensity... Why do we allow a lumbering idiot with no intensity to QB America's team? That's stupid... we need to cut him. Being a game out of first place and having the best team we've had since probably '96 means nothing when your QB can't get away from an unblocked DL and fumbles.
Yeah, Bledsoe is winning us a lot of games... but he lumbers! We can't have it! Besides, Bledsoe apparently wasn't upset enough after the loss. He needed to cry everyday, all week to prove he has the same kind of intensity as the wonderful athletes that frequent this forum.
Petitti and Tucker? Why they singlehandedly set this franchise back decades. How could they be so underwhelming? Not only should they be cut, immediately, but the Cowboys should petition that they not be allowed back in the NFL at all. They should be retired from football. It doesn't matter that we're still in the middle of the playoff hunt... we should cut them and use special teams players as tackles. Doesn't matter that Petitti is a rookie and tough days can be expected... I mean this is Dallas. He must perform perfectly at all times or he's horrible.
Julius clearly is as explosive as a blob of clay and should be sent packing. I think I read on here that he's mentally handicapped because he didn't get out of bounds to stop the clock. Well no wonder. Everyone on here would've gotten out of bounds, I can tell you that.
Peterman needs to be cut because he couldn't beat out Hall of Famer Larry Allen and expensive free agent acquisition, former pro bowler Marco Rivera. How could he let those two keep him on the bench. Pffft. Garbage, I tell ya.
Al Johnson needs to go too. Who would believe that he's been telegraphing our snap count to the defense? He's probably been sending them notes on our gameplan during pregame warmups. Cut him.
I could go on... but why? It's clear that our entire roster needs to be cut except for Dat, who's retiring, Greg Ellis, Terence Newman, and Aaron Glenn.
It's going to be difficult starting over from scratch, but we can do it. After all the coaches are fired and Jerry Jones has spent a week of self-flaggelation in the steam room of valley ranch, we need to hunt down a real coaching staff. Someone who will throw on first down. Someone who won't run up the middle at all. Ever. Someone who will open up the offense. Someone who will run the ball more to help time of possesion. A guy who won't stick to a gameplan. A coach who doesn't care as much about the fundementals of the game and will instead spend his time working on elaborate passing schemes to fool the defensive coordinators around the league.
Maybe Mike Martz will be available... he'll pass a lot. Not many first down runs there, I can tell you that.
It will be hard starting over with only 3 players. We'll have to have a very good draft and get some good free agents, but we can do it.
At least we won't have all the slackers on the team that we do now. All the horrible players who just don't care... like Glover, Ware, Spears, Ellis, Roy, Henry (who is clearly a wuss since he can't play with a torn groin), Julius, etc. We'll be free of those guys.
Yep, I can see doing that... but to dissolve the franchise? That's just an overreaction if you ask me.
