My prediction

[john van brocklin]

Yeah it started declining over time, just like the team from 1994 on. I just don't care to root for these guys anymore.

I get it.
The team has been mismanaged into the ground.
Hard to be upbeat about them.
Hopefully better days will come.

Hard-pressed here to find five games on the schedule the team was saw last Sunday night could win.

I was being generous and optimistic!

This is like trying to revive someone who's been dead for 3 days. It's over. I'm just here to chat with people who probably feel the same.

Yeah, that was when it was in his best interest to hire a real NFL HC....to appear relevant when Dallas and Arlington were in negotiations with Jerry. He needed a solid and respected HC at the time. Once he had the stadium, back to his old ways..i.e. Wade Phillips, Garrett and now MM... all puppets.

When Parcels came in those were some exciting times. I was so unbelievably pumped. And we were a fumbled snap away from going to the NFC championship game.

Then he hired Wade Phillips and tore it all down. Then garrett. Then Mike mccarthy. It took three failed coaches after Jimmy Johnson until he hired parcells. History will repeat itself. This team will be just as bad if not worse than any Campo team.

If not for this forum I don't know how much I would still care.
It's the comradery of you folks that keeps me this interested.
Also validates how I feel about the team.

Same here brother. I'm sorry if all my posts are negative but I'm just dejected, disgusted, embarrassed, angry, and shocked. I never thought we would be this bad.

No need to apologize
Many here feel the same.
I would be willing to see short term pain if it would bring change to how this dysfunctional team was run.

Well that's going to involve winning two or three games. I'm rooting for it. Actually, I'm rooting for us to 0 - 17. We need it bad. I want to see Jerry covering his face whenever cameras are around instead of jumping in front of them and spewing endless diarrhea.

I believe fumble snap was in the WC game, so we would have been going to divisional round if we won....

No, you're wrong. The team we were going to play said they would forfeit before ever playing us. So we would have gone straight to the nfc championship game. Look it up.

Lmao thats as bad as Wade saying the bye in 2007 counted as a playoff win...

Remember how Wade celebrated every field goal miss like he just won the super bowl? That man was so dumb.

Jerry has been able to get away with being a below average GM because of two things:

Tony Romo
Dakota Prescott

He was gifted 2 decent QB's for basically the cost of a late 4th round draft pick.

This has covered over a lot of Jerry's horrendous GM decisions.

Now that Dak's play has fallen down to his limited ability, the team is gonna stink bad.

I am talking 5 and 11 Campo bad.

Jerry can smooth talk over a lot of stuff, but the results of his inabilities are going to show up

on the field where there will be no way he can spin it.

Maybe when we become a perennial loser on the field and are no longer " relevant"

He will change his ways.

Jerry is a proud man and if the product on the field falls below .500 and the National Media

does not care about the Boys anymore, hopefully he will make some meaningful positive changes.

I predict that they will win the next 2 games and go on to win the division.

Hey Credit where credit is due.
Jerry hired Will McClay and got out of his way and we have had stellar drafts.
I applaud Jerry for that.
But hiring weak HC's, keeping them way to long , terrible trades trades for Wide Receivers, not taking advantage of free agency, that all falls on Jerry.
If you want the credit you gotta take the heat too.

Jerry cant hire a strong coach , No Alpha coach would work for Jerry and accept the imposition of KM as OC etc….

The thing is, I'm still not convinced that it's entirely Dak's fault that things seem bleak. It's why I had a thread about how Jerry's past errors show that he tends to not think through potential disasters and plan for them. I shall once more mention about Tyron Smith and Cooper. Tyron hasn't completed a full season in about half a decade. May be even more. Dak, like most QBs, struggles when his best LT is out as that protects the blindside. Just as importantly, our LG spot has been a sore spot for a while. Connor Williams was terrible there. Jerry didn't have the foresight to understand that these could be a problem and could lead to his biggest investment struggling and breaking down. Unless we fix the LT and LG spot (Peters and Smith might very well be fixes), then Dak need not return as he's likely to face further injury. The problem with the Peters idea, as good as Peters is, is that he is only a bandaid on a cannon wound that's been building for years. Had Jerry been on top of this, we could've had replacements and depth a while ago to prevent this issue.

Similarly, the WR spot is a mess. CeeDee Lamb is a good WR......if hes used as the 2 or slot WR. He's never a 1WR, but Jerry thought he was. This, we don't have much at WR to throw to. Not even an elite QB would succeed with this. Look at how Rodgers struggled against the Vikings. If he couldn't succeed with the WRs stripped bare like that, what chance does Dak or a rookie have?

my prediction, JVB will soon start wear horse costumes everywhere.

The national media does not care right now. They use Jerry for click bait on their articles.

does not care about the Boys anymore

He could, he just chooses not to.
If the on field losing got so bad, I believe he would.
Or at least that's my hope.

correct CD in the slot is much better than CD on the outside. He is not a blazingly fast or sure handed possession receiver , his game is catch the ball in slant and YAC to make big gains.

Gallup will be definitely useful, we should try turpin and Simi atleast as decoys to pull the safeties and hit CD in the middle.
