Good! Out the NFC........lol

But I thought they had an offer of a 1 in their pocket........guess not

The Titans were already a problem regardless, but now they become a bigger threat.

I always get jealous to see already good teams try and get better. That's why this franchise can't get out of it's own way. If we do have a good season we don't try to improve on it. We "like our guys" too much.

Cowboys like their guys so much they just spent a whole draft and free agency replacing defensive starters. How much turnover did you want?

 

[Risen Star]

I don't get it. I thought that was the point of taking Pitts. To have that big 3.

I don't think Atlanta had much of a choice. Jones was determined not to play for Atlanta in 2021. At least they go a 2nd round pick for him, but it will not be near the top of the round.

Pairing Jones up with Brown is a great move for the Titans. I still think Julio has a lot left in the tank.

Maybe Henry will finally get some running room?

Nope. They are still going to make Tannenhill beat them. I'd rather lose by his arm than allowing Henry to run all over me which he will probably do anyway lol.

Yeah that's BS. The player controls nothing. You play or you retire.

So does anyone else find it kind of disturbing that for as good as Julio is....he's only had double digit touchdowns ONCE in his career? Seems odd. Only 60 touchdowns for his career?

Clearly they do....Zeke wanted a contract..he got it. Julio wanted out...he got it. Deshaun and Rodgers want out....TBD.

Turnover for the sake of turnover and meaningful turnover are two very different things.

Replacing our defensive bums with FA's with injury issues and rookies with character issues is hardly the turnover I think anybody was looking for this off season. But then again, maybe it's just me that would've liked to see us legitimately upgrade with proven talent.

dang i like the titans. they do a good mix of smash mouth football, skill, + nasty defense.

they are a real super bowl contender!

Tannenhill since joining the Titans has been a top 10 QB. You gotta pick your poison with them, but i'm with you, i'd focus more on Henry then Tannenhill, because if Henry is rolling then so is that clock.

I would've liked to have upgraded with big names as well but just because I would've wanted to see that doesn't mean its the correct way to build the team lol.

It took two years for the Cowboys to rebuild this defense. Its too early to tell what the defense will look like but we at least know they should have two playmakers on defense in Parsons and Diggs.

I don't think the answer for this team is to sign past their prime players to fix it.
