CFZ Observing 'our' Dallas Cowboys

[NotForLong]

I'm a long time as a fan...since they started their journey.

If you feel like throwing up, that is all on your own taste. Handle it then...

The feeling had past but now it has returned

See a doctor or get a bottle of Pepto...you think that is taking a stance of any kind of football knowledge. Just give up, insult guy.

Try a football discussion...insulting instead - always is being nothing more than a punk...if just insult is one's message.

You doing drugs or drinking a lot? That sounds like the support group you belong to by choice...but it'll get one in trouble.

This is a thread positively started about being a fan, but backing the Cowboys.

You trying to instead be a run by squatter? You certainly blow out a lot of unnecessary crap for no other reason than insult.

Try real talk and listen some also.

No stomach ailments here and I still like Jerry, Dak, and Parsons!!!

I once attended on post for a soldier working in the motor pool and his family and kids were up front. A private 'wise ***' in the unit assembly started making fun during the ceremony. After OUR return to quarters, he ended with facial distortions! At a formal dining in, NCO's, made fun of sergeant's wife who was Hispanice.
He had a similar 'awakening.'

I don't lie for anyone's backside...

Enough said about other's lack of integrity...Go Cowboys!

This should read: I once attended an on post funeral for a soldier working in the motor pool. His wife, children, and family were in attendance. A private started to make fun during the ceremony. Upon return to quarters, his facial features became altered.

At a formal NCO dining in, at a table was a Hispanic Sergeant and his wife. They were insulted. Upon return to quarters, his facial features were altered as well...

I don't lie for anyone's backside.

Enough said about other's lack of integrity. Go Cowboys!

Stats are useful as to seeing directions as well as seeing weaknesses already discovered with the same tools used by other teams. Weaknesses need real and adjustable directions to change.

Failures that don't but fall in a short ranged window and can be solved in a single or even simple actions are relative in a view. Those should not be ignored.
That part is either team building or team improving. One of the most important parts is ability to judge talent on and that can be added to a team. At present, that quality is every inch as good as it was Jimmy Johnson and Jerry Jones started the path to a Dynasty. Once a dynasty is derailed, returning to that is very tough to return to that status. Today's NFL is that tough to overcome.

Once there is talent, then the design of a plan of attack for both sides of the ball, becomes the directional element that carries a team into confrontations/games. That then becomes a matter of adjustments and in game plans to derail an opponent. That requires experience and accumulated successes on both the coaching levels as well as in the team roster. Success has to grow...and that is a fact. During the Dynasty as well as now.

Insulting the team has no real and excusable place in this picture right now...another fact.

The role of a fan is to help the team in it's own motivation for their own sacrificing, injuries, and sweat equity in giving back to those fans. It's not time to bring out a Hero Worship rather than just judging what is currently on the team's plate. Not even being able to identify progression points and identifying true team needs as they are in fact being developed through those points of progress. At least give honesty a chance here.

Good in a team still has a progression to it. The Dallas Cowboys have that right here and now.

Instead of seeing where his team is today, using past glory stereotypes to beat the head of a simple fan is a poor excuse for a fan. If one wishes to truly own glory of the team's...buy one then.

Otherwise be a valid fan and share the experience of being a fan.

A fan should both love the sport as it is played, as well as back his team through thick and thin.

Too many assume non-authorized enforcement directed at insult of fans. If a fan is incorrect, then discuss on facts, not on insulted stereotype outside of a reasonable discussion. Not everyone has depth of historical knowledge. Help to educate, not with a brow beating attitude. Then, YOU, aren't a fan, but a self appointed hindrance to new fans and real knowledge.

This team has a very good staff of coaches. It has a great scouting department for both the draft and possible free agents. There is great communications, as well as time spent in discussion about both, the team and opponents. Knowledge of both are at a very high level now.

Cap management is a very important piece of a team's stability and growth.

Stephen and the managing elements have invested in top shelf statistical staff as well kept the team view fully up front. That is about to pay great dividends on both on field leadership as well as top talent in the NFL. This includes the most team changing positions...offensive tackle, defensive end, cornerback, receiver, and quarterback.

All of these have been evaluated as top shelf and and everyone will cost at NFL high levels. That's the cost of the NFL today. But also good management by the Cowboys.

Thanks to you both, Jerry Jones and Stephen Jones...you have done us fans good, here and now.

That same Jerry Jones has always been loyal to his players. He has given them protections of their needs and also gave them opportunity to earn their own place and achieve in a very unstable environment. Football isn't easy, but it is rewarding for a fan.

Leave sentiments on that level...of being a fan.

Truly appreciate all the processes that are actually necessary in today's environment. The Cowboys are doing needed tasks as well as have earned fan respect as well...who at least keep up with their with more than just a bad attitude and share shame.

At least be a true fan, not blind, but help their motivations. Be a real fan!

A company man lecturing others about being a fan?

Frankly a whole page of drivel about CCBOY supposedly being the ultimate expert on what a 'true fan' is makes me want to vomit.

What's holding you back? Attitude?...

Out of control, and lay off direct insult.

Your bonus here is insult...oh, check, roger, hoooah.

That is no time in grade except at the Superintendent's office...run on off.

If you are trying to earn an argument...go ahead and start it off. You are already wrong.

You like baseball cards...try another sport.

Try a Jackie Robinson 1952 card...

This offseason for the Dallas Cowboys has drawn generally good reviews. They retained some key players like Donovan Wilson, added important pieces in Brandin Cooks and Stephon Gilmore, and made a major shift in their draft strategy in taking nose tackle Mazi Smith in the first round. Most importantly, the returning players under contract were already one of the most solid groups in recent history. While the team still has some potential concerns, starting with the offensive line, this roster just looks very strong, especially in the NFC, which is now the weaker conference. And the team did not stand pat with the coaching staff. After some questions about play-calling last year, Mike McCarthy grabbed the reins of the offense himself. Optimism abounds.

If you have been following this team for any time, you know how preseason optimism can be shattered on the rocks of the regular season. While this team has a lot going for it, it seems like there are too many rosy assumptions. There are some of those that we need to more closely examine, just to keep ourselves grounded.

One is the offensive line, which has been dissected thoroughly. We are holding our breath about that already. If issues develop there, they probably won’t surprise anyone. It is also obvious that the kicking job is up for grabs, but that is common for maybe half the teams each year, so it doesn’t really fit in here. This piece is about the things that are often just assumed are going to go well - which covers more of the rest of the team than you might think. One thing we don’t have to mention is the defensive end group in Dallas, which is both very good and remarkably deep. That isn’t something to worry about.

Waiting for Dakota

Dak Prescott is polarizing. National media makes things worse concerning him, as the controversy driven shows know full well that throwing shade at the Cowboys quarterback makes for big ratings. Unfortunately, the fact the team has not gotten out of the divisional round with him as quarterback provides ample fuel to the fire. The assumption for many fans is that his issues with turnovers last season should be correctable, and he and the coaches are on top of it. His high interception rate last year is explained as him having to take risks in unfavorable down-and-distance situations to try and extend drives.

So far, he has tended to come back from things like that. The concern is that they don’t go away for good. The offensive success this year is more dependent on Prescott’s performance than any other individual. If he isn’t right, it’s going to be a long, long season.

The team is betting on how much Stephon Gilmore has in the tank, too

Stephen Gilmore has had an outstanding career, but Dallas got him cheap because he is also getting up there in football years, and for a position like cornerback where speed is crucial, this has to be watched closely. The assumption is that he will be a great bookend with Trevon Diggs, but just like with Cooks, we will have to see how that turns out. With DaRon Bland and Jourdan Lewis also in the room, the depth here is better than at wide receiver, but there is still a chance this could be disappointing.

Is McCarthy going to clear up the offensive glitches?

This loops right back to the first point raised, since we all got tired of failed first downs and seeing Prescott in bad down-and-distance situations, which probably had quite a bit to do with his league leading interception total. While it seems odd to say so given that McCarthy got the team to the playoffs two years in a row for the first time since the 2006-2007 seasons, he also seemed to feel his seat heating up. Taking the play-calling duties was a logical step to have as much control over his fate as possible, but we will have to see if he can recover the mojo he had during his best years calling plays for the Green Bay Packers. He is doing so while trying to keep as much of the offensive the same for the returning players.

If he does not do much better than the former offensive coordinator, Kellen Moore, was seen as doing, he will indeed be on the hot seat. The team has to advance further this year, at least to the NFC Conference Game, to cool things off for him. If he doesn’t manage that, no matter the reason, he may not finish out his five year contract.

A 'POOR' fan?

Mr. gtb1943, where are your personally directed insults now? Go ahead and jump on the four posts above...if you aren't just too lazy to read them.

You still have the alternative to still be a jerk and glamorizing attempts at insult again...

Company man...just grow on up. Try being real and see a recruiter and then stick it out. We can all see when you are just lying, your lips are moving.

More is said and a lot easier if YOU show some respect. Try sticking around long enough to earn some yourself.

Yes somehow he is a former postal worker who is also a Cowboys front office insider. He understands the ins and out of Cowboy operations which we regular fans are not privy to.

I've been a Cowboys fan since they started in 1960...you?

Knowledge is accumulated not gained insulting.

When one has learned the sport about 65 years and played on teams in college that went to bowls and a National Championship...then I may understand more than a pompous kid trying to look knowledgeable.

As to serving, Veteran for 23 years, then retired from the Post Office...you keeping up here? Last employment was as a Corrections Officer...you ever stepped up and even talked with a recruiter, smart guy?

Your kind of regular, stud, is here...

But the thrust of the OP and my postings was on topic and backed by sourced quotes as my basis.

As to you here, here's your pom pom worshiping:

Rootie toot toot, who gives a hoot?

Talk football and leave the jerk insult out of posting.

You can actually make an addition that is positive. You haven't begun to earn respect here. You are smart enough to add to a reasonable discussion...now try.

Have you attended a Cowboys game?

Comment on any of the four posts of mine above your post about football...or can you without insult?

In Super Bowl XXII, Elway stayed away from Darrell Green from Texas A&I. Maybe a counter gap run would help McCarthy's running game now...think?

Take seat...never tried to be more. Your knowledge is lacking in a lot of areas. But your insults supercede no topic discussion. Too bad for your values. I don't support your own hero worship instead. I share the whole truth of the game...not a very good 'We Are The World' by yourself. When given in disrespect even with a backing chorus...then,

I respond to your crap load.

I don't just go away or give up...let's go then. You aren't a word past insult here.

 

[CCBoy]

Anyone else want a turn, let's go...or talk football without demanding compliance in MY view of the truth.

 

[CCBoy]

Take the Jerry thing, the Dak thing, or any other sophistication for venting one's own reason for his own disappointment onto another, and place it where the sun doesn't shine.

Jerry has been a class act to his team. He has stood by them through everything and was respectful as well. I don't care if he went winless or to a Super Bowl, he did have ethics and respected that as well. That has nothing to do with your desires or Jimmy Johnson leaving. If one ignores that, then he has poor morales at the expense of another as well as not accepted the needs for a discussion, here.

I have served over seas just to ensure others through the world had the similar right of being able to say what they wish to be said and given freedom of speech.
Fight? Yea, I did that too...but that was mission. The team has a mission, and that is on their shoulders. Jerry provides opportunity and owns the entire franchise.
Jimmy thought he was above that as do some posters here as to their role in talk here.

I don't apologize a second for sticking to just that. Don't like that in me, then tough. Move on!
