Ummm maybe bc the browns just scored 49 and had 304 rushing yards in large part to our god awful LBs

The dude isn’t a good football player he looks lost out there.

 

[Aftershock]

He's just trying to keep his job. No accountability in the coaching staff either.

 

[Blake]

He's just a straight shooter with upper management written all over him.

This is like saying smokers saying that cigarettes don't cause lung cancer. And when they finally got it, they say that's hereditary.

One turd polishing another

There is some truth to those comments. Jaylon flies around the field. I have no doubt he plays hard. Im just not sure at this point if he has the football instinct and iq.

 

[Captain-Crash]

come on rudy is trying hard these days.

 

[Clove]

Two peas in a pod. They both can go.

 

[Tangle_Foot]

I'm still waiting for both of them to show up in the Cowboys defense

 

[ScipioCowboy]

Awesome. Four games into his Cowboys career, he’s already a codependent enabler.

I think you started seeing it last year with Jaylon. Other teams were targeting him in the passing game for a reason. They also know they can run right at him. If other teams are doing that it means they see something on film. Not a good sign.

Great story, and i hope he turns it around. However it could be that the knee was just never the same for him, or he like alot of talented players played elite football one or two years and went downhill after that.

It is usually good that a coach stands up for his players.

But Nolan is under criticism himself. So to stand up for a guy like Smith is just another nail in Nolans coffin.

Be smart when you support your players.

 

[Vtwin]

I'm no expert but if your defense gives up 300 on the ground then some combo of DT, ML, SS and scheme must have absolutely stunk.

So which of those areas absolutely stunk, Mr Nolan?

 

[cowboyec]

im still a fan of Jaylon.
good dude.
hustles.
he takes alot of heat...some of it warranted...some not.
but i dont think i've ever seen him quit...or not try.
he guesses alot...but you know what...id rather have a guy who tries hard than not.

 

[MysteryIceGuro]

The cycle is starting all over again

 

[scottsp]

No that it matters, but Nolan isn't going to give us anything. He knows better. Folks in that building are friendly, comfortable, and, for the most part, paid. Don't go screwing with a good thing because of football.

And this would not be unique to the situation with Jaylon. I hope he (and others) find it, and fast.

Nolan is repeating the company line. JJ and Stephen saw fit to pre and over pay this turd. They put out the word to the coaches not to make them look like the fools they are.

 

[fivetwos]

Nolan is trying to kiss up to Jerry and his investment and collect as many checks as he can before getting canned.
