Preseason games matter if you are relying on UDFA and rookies to play starter roles

[Dak_Attack_09]

This was the first regular season game for 20-30% of the roster composed of UDFA and drafted players and it was utter crap show.

If the Jones are going to rely on bunch of UDFA to play starter roles then this pre-season performance can’t be accepted.

They sold us a bill of lies and fans can’t keep accepting this mediocrity team building from Jones as well.

They didn't sell me anything, preseason is still preseason, and this sort of reaction occurs every time the Cowboys lose.

They didn't sell me anything, preseason is still preseason, and this sort of reaction occurs every time the Cowboys lose.

Not to mention half of the players we saw tonight won't even be one the team game 1.

‘I don’t wanna say he has a gambling problem - but he BETS on NFL Preseason games!’

Correct.

This was the first regular season game

 

[Creeper]

Yes, it is basically one team of scrubs against another but the Cowboys backups looked bad against the Broncos backups.

To me it means the Cowboys depth is not as good as the Broncos. But it is just one game.

What it showed me is that we have the most anemic and undisciplined "scrubs" of any team in the league. Everybody else that I watched this weekend looked nothing like the Cowboys.

Go ahead and make excuses for them and you hope for the best I guess.

More than half of those players are starters. Jerry already brain-washed you?

 

[PA Cowboy Fan]

The penalties are concerning.

Those same scrub is what Stephen and Jones are relying on to start.

Stop trying make it seem insignificant when your GM told you they are starters and they aren’t bringing in FAs.

 

[Dak_Attack_09]

Didn’t Stephen say we are going with young guys the “UDFA”? Do you have memory loss problems?

So are you saying Stephen Jones is lying?

 

[Doomsday]

When is the last time the Cowboys' backups have looked good in a preseason game? I honestly can't think of one.

 

[Jake]

I'm saying Stephen Jones is incompetent. The only NFL GM who would employ him in his lofty roles is his father, who happens to own the team. This needed explained?

And he said UDFA are the starters.

I definitely agree with you, but I WOULD like to see more fight and energy from all units, win lose or draw.

 

[Jimbo123]

We'll be ok. We have Dak.

 

[Star Guard_31]

I'm less concerned about the depth and young guys (although they weren't inspiring) and more concerned about the endless penalties this team commits. More than once Dallas committed multiple penalties on the same play. This team lacks discipline.

Some teams use pre season games to evaluate certain things. Some coaches actually game plan for their backups and try to put them in winning situations. Not these dallas offensive coaches. The lack of coaching continued and it showed in penalties and the horrible offensive game plan they had.
