Former Cowboy - Clowney signing with the Houston Texans

[diamonddelts]

Thanks for helping the Cowboys embrace mediocrity.

So, Von Miller then?

..sure hope it doesnt come to bite us, on the ***. ..

 

[Rayman70]

We didn't even make an honest offer

 

[Coogiguy03]

Little late my friend, there's a thread started on this, wish him well

 

[erod]

He's not a 3-4 guy.

 

[erod]

Wasn't he also a former Texan?

He was drafted No. 1 overall in the draft by them.

He's a bust based on that draft position.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

I’m glad I don’t have to see someone begging to sign him. Solid vet for hire guy but yeah guys acting far too desperate.

 

[Tangle_Foot]

They will cut him after their loss to us per usual.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

8 more sacks we have to find with what we have left.

Didn’t 3 of them come against the Giants? They’ll be ok.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Clowney said in an interview last season that his days of playing LB in a 3-4 were over.
- i.e. He didn't see himself dropping into coverage anymore.

Texans are a base 4-man front defense (4-3).

Oh I can’t even imagine Clowney in coverage.

END THE NOISE, thank you!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for your time here, but hey it is what it is!!! He's going back home!

Great.....now we can start smugly disparaging him

 

[shabazz]

..sure hope it doesnt come to bite us, on the ***. ..

I'm still waiting for when McCarthy does that to us.

 

[KingCorcoran]

I suspect that they will get Crosby.

Yes. Crosby is the obvious alternative to Clowney.

 

[IceStar-D7]

Makes no sense to me why Dallas didn't bring this guy back. 8.5 sacks and you can't use him???? Unless it's something I haven't heard about. Not signing him will be one of the biggest gaffs of the off-season. Unless they bring in somebody, they haven't pulled the trigger on at DE.

 

[75boyz]

Thought he should have been one of the first FAs signed back by the team.

 

[Praxit]

Must not fit Parker’s style.

...that has to be it. Because you resign your sack leader from previous year.

The sting on this one, .. Clowney was the grandpa out there, >>>> still lead the team with sacks.

The guy has never coordinated an NFL defense for even one game and he has a “style”!

Every Defensive Coordinator has a style.

 

[KingCorcoran]

Every Defensive Coordinator has a style.

Yes. And no one knows what it is until after at least one game. No one knows the DC’s skill at in game adjustments until his defense has been confronted with many different scenarios. And many different opponents. Lucky that Parker is a Hall of Fame coach, already. Otherwise there would be cause for concern.
