Israel Mukuamu will do whatever it takes to bring Cowboys fans a Super Bowl victory

[conner01]

It really was kind of comforting to watch how he and Bland played at the end of the year. Both very pleasant surprises and bot should be better this year with another year of experience. I wonder if Mukuamu's long term position is CB or FS; I think he can play either at this level. As awesome as our DBs look to be this year there are an awful lot of them whose contracts expire after this year. The DB room may look quite different next year. Having Bland and Mukuamu on rookie deals will help

Hooker

That’s why I expect a CB, maybe two in this draft

Loved this kid coming out. I think you are right he can do both. I don’t think you want him lined up on the outside all day at cb but Quinn is really good at finding a way to play a guy to his strength

Clark, Cox and Bell can follow this transition, it separates Qs defense from what the NFL has been doing.
Q covets the LB/S hybrid, and we are as close as we have been now with 2nd year transcendence.

 

[CowboyFrog]

Can he play QB?

What a fresh take! change your name to hijackBlazer

 

[Typhus]

And to think they liked Nahshon Wright more.

Not sure where he fits or if he can fit, was an odd pick indeed.

 

[Outlaw Heroes]

It's going to be tough for him to make the difference getting 5 snaps a game.

Secondary room is packed full for sure, it will be a great room to watch during training camp.

Luckily for us no other players in the league are willing to do what it takes to win a super bowl

Sarcasm! Of course other players are working hard etc., but there are levels of how hard people train and study. He seems at the highest level which is good for us!

 

[Proof]

Luckily for us no other players in the league are willing to do what it takes to win a super bowl

lucky for us he is. we’ve suffered from complacency and camp cupcake for a long time.

Go kneecap Stephen

Lock Rowdy in the basement?

I like the attitude that resonates from Parsons and how it is rubbing off on some players like Kearse, Bland, Muk, hopefully youngster Bell as well.
Adding a savy vet like Gillmore to this group just elevates playmakers like Diggs, he needs to return to making plays on the ball and leading the league in INTs.
This defense has some really good chemistry going on right now, if we add a Defensive playmaker in this draft nobody should be complaining, but that player will find the comp pretty deep at most positions.
Watch Sam Williams take a step forward this camp, this kid has a load of talent, but was humbled with his rook year competition.

Yes sir! Some of these, so called fans are just looking to turn anything into a negative. Not their fault, there are no locker rooms in Madden.

Who is turning it into a negative? Do you guys just make crap up?

also, did you read his quotes or are you going more off of the idea of what his quotes said based on the headline of the article. He basically said what everyone says every year Unless there were some quotes left out of the article.

Wasn't talking about him....pft!

”did you read his quotes“ meant Mukuamu, not the poster you quoted who quoted my what I thought was a very obvious joke. Mukuamu said nothing that isn’t said 100 times a year by other.

I wasn't talking about mukuama...I was talking about the fans that were making fun of him. I was agreeing with my buddy, ccboy

Israel Mukuamu will do “whatever it takes” to bring Cowboys fans a Super Bowl victory

Unknown nobody will do whatever it takes for a superbowl victory.

My first thought was that any player who doesn't share this commitment doesn't belong in the NFL.

Championships are what it's supposed to be all about. Players on a team compete because they want to prove their team is the best. Personal goals are secondary and if they are not then get that player off the team.

Then I ran it through something I call the "hypocrite test". What would I do under the same circumstances?

I realize that the money that can be earned makes this much tougher than in the past. I mean, if you had the choice, would you rather have an NFL championship making 800K a season or no championship while making 10mil a season? As fans, we wish every player would choose the championship but, c'mon, would the majority of "fans" if they had the choice?

So, this is another "dynamic" of NFL football that has changed how fans regard the NFL, the players and themselves. I realize I've struggled with this myself in regards to how I interpret statements and opinions of others. It's important that I acknowledge how perspectives have changed as a result of an evolving NFL.

Free agency, salary structures and rule changes were deemed necessary by both law and social pressures and it would be difficult to argue against attempts at equity, fairness and accountability for health issues. However, they did not come without some type of sacrifice and part of that is the level of commitment to winning and a "team first" attitude.

I also wonder sometimes if players truly understood how blessed they are. There are very few NFL players that weren't born with top tier physical gifts that they combined with hard work and dedication to make it to the league. They were also fortunate to find the mentors who inspired them, whether that be a coach or some family member or even a member of their community.

A few plays Israel Mukuamu made during the playoffs against the Buccaneers...

Lock Rowdy in the basement?

Steal the locker containing Rowdy's costume, load it on a ship, sail to the Mariana Trench and toss it overboard?
