No one is coming to save the Dallas Cowboys

The nature of snake oil is to be able to sell anything, so I wouldn't put it past the Joneses to try to sell a season "savior." They'll trade for one player and it will be our season saved.
Trade deadline is November 5th.

If they get manhandled by the 49ers and the Falcons, I could see them doing that.

But at this point, who is left? Alvin Kamara? Maybe. Mike Williams or Treylon Burks? Not sure they make any difference. Also, Burks just went on the IR so not sure you can even trade for him before he sits out 4 games.

A forward-thinking team may make a play for the Patriots Joshua Uche. He's only 26 but he is a pending free agent so that alone may scare the delicate Stephen Jones. He's similar to Parsons where you can put him in different spots. Plus, if you find a way to keep him, Belichick will appreciate the familiar face when he takes over.

I still remember when Stephen Jones pulled off a trade deadline for a DL from the Texans (when they were awful) who they had cut twice that year, including a few weeks before the trade. Stephen tried to claim it was the team looking to improve at the deadline.

Again, go to school learn some economics I’m not condescending, I’m stating facts. Ticket sales doesn’t even pay the electric bill lol scalpers make the money, I’m not the one that’s looking like a fool , jersey sales, LMAO NFL property. Do I need to school you on everything? There’s an NFL logo on the jersey not a Jerry logo. Lol.
You completely ignored what I said, but that's okay. Here's a simpler version: NFL sales or not, JERRY PAYS ATTENTION TO IT. If he pays attention to it, it's important to him. See how that works? Nobody is saying it will bankrupt him and only a moron took that from what I said.

No, It only took a moron not to realize what they said. LMAO. Jerry pays as much attention to this as he does this morning crap . Why you say something when it’s totally irrelevant. Must’ve been thinking something. Oh that’s right you weren’t thinking at all lol

Face it fellow fans. The Cowboys are rollin with this personnel and roster for the rest of the year. There will be no trades, no hidden gems, and no resurgence. JJ has made it clear that this year is not a priority. He’s the second biggest snake oil salesman in the USA.
Remember Green Bay. ALL IN.

There isn’t anything to be done this year. The impact players that are injured still have to get paid. They can’t be replaced. The only significant moves that could potentially be made are at WR and RB. That won’t be enough, but it would help a little. There are zero teams experiencing success this year that have the spate of injuries that the Cowboys have. That’s just the way football operates. Comparatively speaking, SF has fewer stars injured than we do and they’re struggling mightily.

I understand injuries. I’m talking about addressing issues from LAST season. No legit DT. Not replacing players that had production like Fowler and Williams who was injured early on.
Watch how much struggle SF has this Sunday night.

Not trying to be mean, but not exactly new news.

There are far too many issues to think that anyone could come save this season.
2025 gonna be worse.

DLaw, OSA, and ZMartin likely gone to UFA.

Steele probably Post June 1 cut.

need RB1, WR2, and LB1 in the draft.

plus Micah needs paid.

and a new HC plus new coaches.

Tank and Zack‘s best days behind them and Osa is a no show by now.

Won’t miss ‘Turnstile Steele’ or Coach McCarthy and his time management and stale offenses.

When you put it that way, I’m already excited!

Ah, that was Eli Ankou - who struggled to even be active on gamedays.

Told the Fan that same week that he was there to "sure up" the defensive line.

NFL shares revenue that’s the only point I was making
What someone needs to do is sneak in some paper bags and hand them out. If the cameras pick up a bunch of Cowboy fans wearing paper bags Jerry will be livid. Lol

The only trading we should be doing is players out for draft picks. We'll be in cap hell for the next 2-3 years and the only solution is dumping expensive vets for drafted/first contract younger players.

No? I'd do it. We don't have much of a platform as fans, despite what Jerry like to pretend. It would he nice to make a statement someone actually heard.
