Please, Jerry, don't Kneejerk

[kskboys]

I don't get it. Jerry didn't do squat in the offseason to improve this team so why would he do anything to improve it now?

We knew the Cowboys were going to have depth issues at OT. So they drafted Tyler Smith, but then sat on Ball and drafted Waletzko instead of signing a vet as they had done in previous years. Not until Tyron got hurt did they sign Jason Peters. And that was apparently just in case.

The Cowboys knew they would have depth issues at WR after losing Cooper and Ced Wilson. Again, they went with Washington at league minimum and some young guys with no experience behind CeeDee who appears to be a slot receiver.

They lost Gregory somehow and signed Fowler to replace him. Did Fowler play last might? I think he did. I saw a number 56 in there late in the game. But he had 0 tackles and 0 assists.

La'el Collins beat out Steele for the RT spot last season. But Jerry decided Collins was expendable so he just cut him and chose to go with Steele and two players with 0 experience to back him up. Steele had 4 penalties last night, 3 false starts and 1 holding. That was 1 less than the entire Bucs team had. Does anyone have any doubts what Jimmy Johnson would have done today had Steele committed those penalties while he was coaching?

Jerry had a reason for not investing a lot of money in the Cowboys roster this year, after signing Dak to a $40 million contract he did not deserve, based on his play last night. I have no idea what his reasoning was but it seems to me
he probably still feels the same way.

Jerry's horrific player evaluations once again doom us.

He kneejerked Matt Cassell and Cooper here. Both wasted resources.

Yeah, Cassel went 1-6. I don't see Jerry doing that again.

This sounds like a great plan.

The New York Jets having been doing this since 1970. Jerry should call them for some advice.

So you're against trying to get better. Yup, great plan.

I know it was just a 5th, but why waste it? Jerry really doesn't comprehend how arm strength is important.

 

[kskboys]

I don’t think they will. Losing your QB in the NFL is a common acceptance the season is basically over.

No need for knee jerk reactions or scapegoating.

Ahem. Matt Cassell.

I don't think he comprehends much of anything. He's probably going to try and talk Manziel out of retirement.

That's one of the best ideas I've seen today. One, it wouldn't cost much. Two, just think of the entertainment value.

Sit back and enjoy the entertainment Jerry trots out and just laugh. It's better for your soul.

Fixed.

lmao, whatever the idiot does will be the wrong decision. That's what he does and it's not like we're getting better this century.
