All eyes will be on what they do on the left side of the OL. If anything.
Do you think they will play Waletzko and Ball at LT or move Tyler over there and play McGovern at LG.

Or Will they choose to do nothing then address the situation after roster cut downs.

What else are you looking for.
I know this front page is full of negativity now (and rightfully so), so just trying to get a different topic going. Seems there are 25 threads about Tyron and the FO's lack of action and knowledge.

I want to see Grier take the back up QB job, and see how they use Turpin on offense.
Also see if Wright still screws up or not, and how some other defensive depth players play.

The battle for 3rd string RB up for grabs also between Dowdle and Davis. Which WR steps up to claim the 6th spot, or 5th and 6th spots.

I will watching OT, I think this game will be big in terms of what they do for 3rd string RB, interested in seeing how Turpin fairs at WR

Are none of the starters 100% not playing?

Has the been confirmed?
LOL. You have to ask?

This isnt a football team. Its a country club. Owner doing tv shows, DROY doing the same thing. Starters getting rested. Veteran days off.

Can we bring Tom Landry back? Does he have any offspring?

Josh Ball, Tyler Smith and Farniok.
Bell, Mukuamu and Coyle.
KJ, Wright and Bland.

OL for obvious reasons. Secondary players because theres a surplus, and also JLewis may not be able to go Week 1 so Bland or KJ have to show something.

I have not heard anything as to who is playing or not. Just that someone posted a few days ago, Grier will get a lot of time at QB.
And Turpin supposedly will get some snaps on offense.

The lack of motivation to get better really bothers me.

Allen and Mahomes have played in every preseason game so far. Brady, at 45, and the other Bucs starters are playing Saturday.

Why do our guys feel they don't need this?

I know people will say the players have no say and I don't buy that for a second. I believe that if the players said they would like to get a few reps in to get more ready they would 100% be allowed. I don't think they are arguing to get any playing time because, hey, it's a night off. I don't think our players have the "want" to get better. I think they're satisfied just being celebs.

Go watch Jerry speaking to Stephen A.

He already thinks the playoffs are guaranteed. And said so on National TV.

This is why I constantly say. It doesnt matter who is under center, or on this team. They will never go anywhere because they dont feel they need to win. They already have.

Yeah I kind of cringed when Jerry said that. Especially after Tyron goes down and knowing how the OL struggles without him out there.

The other thing was when they were talking about all the fans there that came out. As SAS the fans are why he is a hater, as he always said that. Then Jerry, put out his hand and rubbed his fingers together basically saying .... they are here spending money ..... as they were talking about how they are valued at $8 million.

Another cringe worthy moment.

This morning on NFLN. They said that Todd Bowles was not concerned with TB12 conditioning after missing time in TC. But he wanted any healthy starters including TB12 to get in some reps this last PS game.
I think if Dak wanted some snaps, MM would say ok. Even though they can make safe plays, remove some of the risks. I still think it is important to get them some reps in real live action. I know they say they can get that in the scrimmages against other teams, but it is still not the same. They know they aren't going to take a big hit. Then come real games, will they be hesitant for a bit.

Hard call, but dang it, play them for a few series.

Yep, Jerry told the entire fan base and the NFL he's getting money and that's what matters most to him.

2cents: He's winning as long as ppl show up with their money. He doesn't care about winning football games like those fans do.

Those are all observations of interest.
My passion for the team, is kinda muted right now with Tyrone's injury.:(
Sorry.

We are not promoting a winning culture here in Dallas.
