Wince aside we are a better team than we were in Atlanta. It just seems like guys weren't prepared to fill the spots when vets went down. We can't fall apart every time a player goes down.

How are 2nd and 3rd rounders equivalent to 1st rounders? You consider those high picks?

Selective reading? I've listed the high first rounders yet you ignore to read it. No wonder you get things wrong all the time.

I guess Zeke, Smith, and Lee were what were holding the Cowboys together. The Cowboys need to step up and prove that statement wrong.

They've lost their 3 best players in each position, and some. They lost Fletcher Cox, Darby, Sproles, Hicks And Peters at various times throughout the year, and kept on winning. It's our coaching staff more than anything they are not getting these kids prepared to play when the starters go down.

I'm not arguing with you. I agree our coaching staff failed us. That doesn't mean Phillys players are as impactful as ours. Im not making that argument one way or another, frankly I dont care to be that familiar with thier roster.

Funny how some assume that because I state a FACT, we lost more than "one" (as the OP stated) it must mean Im sticking up for the coaches. I am not. No need to minimize our losses though in order to make a case against our coaching last week.

While I agree with your statement that it does happen. It's happened 3 times with us. We should've won the Packers and Ram's game. Not making adjustments doomed us in those games like it did last Sunday

Well that's debatable. I personally think the Packers and Rams are better teams than us.

Is it selective reading? Or your lack of knowledge on pro sports? What is high about the number 27?

It's your lack of basic math skills as well as your selective reading habits.
Doesn't surprise me, you would think Fredrick was a high pick (31st) yet Byron Jones isn't(27th pick). Maybe you should think about going back to school and finishing 2nd grade.

Except Tyron was a 9th overall pick and I believe Martin was a 14th overall pick. The pick we used on Fredericks was originally the 18th overall pick until we traded down. But let's focus on the 31st pick to prove your point.......

Mo was a 6th pick overall and we also spent the 2nd round pick to trade up. Last time I checked 6 is higher pick than 9. As I said, you need to go back to school and learn to count.

Frederick was a 31st pick. You trying to make it sound like he was actually a 18th pick is laughable. It's obvious you have no clue how the draft works.

You clearly got lost in this "debate"....go scroll up so you can remember what was being argued. I'll be here waiting......

WE didn't have...

Top 1 or 2 RB in the league, Best OL in the league, Top 5 MLB

Philly didn't have

Maybe a RB in the 25-35 range, A good OT, and a role playing LB. Not comparable.

Philly would have to lose Weinz, I guess Peters, and who ever is their best defensive player to make it remotely close to what we lost.

Also, we have one of the worst coaching staffs in the NFL.

This is truly laughable. "Role playing LB"? "Good OT"? Give me a break. We would have to lose Wentz, Peters and I guess Jenkins "to be close" Hilarious. If the Cowboys or Philly lost their QB for the year either team would be devastated. The whole point is relative that injuries happen to every team and it just so happens that we have lost our "key" players at the same positions, irregardless of skill level. And one could argue that we have had MORE injuries (Darby, Maragos) that have impacted our team.

Shall we lost all heir injuries when they beat us last year in the playoffs and this season as well? I guarantee it's about a dozen players.
Did they have Rodgers yes or no. That's their most important player hence the reason they only beat the bears since he has been out
