No QB no defense

[Zekeats]

since the top 2 Qbs are off the board and we can't can't reach for one at 4 why not surround Romo with some young talent?
Don't we owe it to him? The man took beatings year after year due to lack of talent along the oline. Why can't we give him some shinny, new, talented weapons. I wouldn't be mad one bit if we took Zeke at 4 and drafted a talented WR in the second. I think we owe it to him to give him a shot to win it all within these next 3 years.
Let's face it, a stud corner or DE isn't going to take pressure off of Romo.

Just a little more than 24 hours. Just a little more than 24 hours. Just a little more than 24 hours.

hahaha....I think we are all getting a tad of the burn out but this year should be an exciting draft...hopefully it will turn out to be a good one as well.

Romo has the best OL in football, 4 All-Pros and good backups. room has Dez and Witten. Romo has decent Rbs to get the job done.

The Cowboys owe Romo nothing. He has been paid well and has had the talent around him to win.

Dez yes. Witten is getting old and is not much of a weapon at all. Mc chicken a street free agent and a guy coming off a blown knee isn't what I would call decent.
How do you guys expect to beat Seattle or Carolina with no offense? Look at what Carolina did to us on thanksgiving with decent running backs? What did we do in Seattle two years ago with a real running back?

Is this a joke? Does this team look anything close to Denver or Carolina?

Another Zeke thread.

Nice.

Building a defense so Romo doesn't have to score 35 a game might take some pressure off.

Most overrated player here since DeCastro.

If this sentence were a person, I would go to prison for manslaughter.

Haha. That reminds me. Speaking of DeCastro, ESPN's Mark May said that Pouncey and DeCastro are the best C/G combo in the league. Called them road graders.

I rolled my eye balls right onto the floor.

How about by getting 3 and outs and turnovers and giving him short fields.

Really.

I guess giving Romo the ball at the opponents 34 yard-line isn't helpful.

 

[boysfanindc]

Sure would hurt his passing total though, but I imagine he would live with it.

Do you really think we can do anything in the draft to make our defense that kind of defense?

The Cowboys can get by with "good" backs; which is what they have in McFadden and Morris.

But Elliott is a "special" back. The Cowboys were awful on 3rd and short last year. Best way to improve the defense is keep it off the field. It worked in 2014 with Murray. With Elliott in the backfield, we can use Morris as a relief man and McFadden as the 3rd down back....assuming Zeke ever has to come off the field.

To me, a defensive player is a "need" pick. Elliott would be an "impact" pick.

How did other defenses do it?

Wave a wand?

For that matter how did we do it in 2014?

Too late for that.

You have to make an attempt.

You simply can't keep "kicking the defensive can" down the street.

Sorry but Elliot ain't done nothing "special". College ball ain't the same. The spread offense inflates QB, WR and RB Stats.
