2022 Cap Hits and performance in 2022 through 1 game

Dak Prescott $19.7M cap hit 14 of 29 48.3% Comp % 134 yards 0 td's 1 int

Zeke Elliott $18.2M cap hit 10 carries 52 yards 1 catch -3 yards

Dalton Schultz $10.9M cap hit 7 carries 62 yards

Tyron Smith $17.5M cap hit DNP

Demarcus Lawrence $14M cap hit 4 tackles 1 tfl

Anthony Brown $6.5M cap hit 7 tackles

Jaylon Smith $6.8M dead money cap hit Not on roster

Amari Cooper $6M dead money cap hit Not on roster

La'el Collins $4.9M dead money cap hit Not on roster

Blake Jarwin $2M dead money cap hit Not on roster

Keanu Neal $2M dead money cap hit Not on roster



So Dallas had 2 'stars' (Dak and DLaw) accounting for $33.7M that did not perform up to their contracts, 1 'star' offensive lineman accounting for $17.5M that is on IR, and 5 players accounting for $21.7M that are no longer on the roster.

Eventually BOTH the front office and the 'star' players need to be held fully accountable and there needs to be consequences.
But there never will with JJ. Blind leading the blind.

Prescott’s injury, as expected, pushed several of the other problems, and just as pressing, to the background.

The trenches were flat whipped last night on both sides of the ball. Looks like the alarm going off on TB’s OL issues was a false one. The Cowboys OL is still a work in progress, if it progresses at all. The DL was handled all night by a no name TB OL, missing their LT early in the game.

It is difficult to evaluate the WR corps because the QB had one of his worst games in his career and had the deer in the headlights look for most of the game. I heard some boos from the crowd on that one really bad pass.

The play calling, on both sides of the ball, was poor. And these two coaches are what the team has to depend on to just go .500 for the next 6-8 games.

It is still too early to call but the other 3 East teams played as teams much better than Cowboys did last night. Now, they have to come together with an OL worse than they started last night and their leader not on the field.

The only way to stay afloat is to run the ball and stop the run. And Quinn needs to impress on his star that stopping the run is more important than getting sacks.

Any NFL team that cannot stop the run cannot be successful. The run beat them in the last two games which isn’t so bad until you consider those two games were eight months apart and they had that long to solve that problem.

Problems need solutions and that might just be the major problem.
It's football.....stuff happens. Just as long as they don't quit or we decide to tank, I'm good....been down this road before.

27 years of bad culture is not an easy fix.

First and foremost, go to the source.

With that said...

And you think it's bad with inflation, recession and a bear market.

On a related note, did anyone see any reason (other than that they paid him) why Dorrance Armstrong was out there so much at RDE?

Stash, I asked that same question throughout the game Sunday. Dorrance Armstrong is truly JAG material. The fact that Fowler hasn't beaten him out is terrible.

Fortunately, we've got the most front office continuity in the NFL and the steady hand of Stephen Jones. :rolleyes:

My question is WHY… Why the deer in head lights.

1 - Because Tyler taking over for Tyron and was afraid of a chaz green game.
2 - The pop in his ankle was worse than we thought and he took a shot before the game and was afraid he would injure the ankle.
3 - He was afraid the WR corps that he has been practicing with all camps couldn’t get it done.
4 - He don’t like Moores game plan. And don’t believe in him.

Dak may not be the greatest of all time but he is average or above and been in the league long enough to feel comfortable. If he don’t like the call then change it. He had to see Tyler was doing fine. He seemed to be running around ok. He didn’t start the game with a broken thumb. He could use Elliot. Could have used Pollard. By this time in Romos career he had full usage of the Offense. So why was he acting so squirrley.
