Remember when people wanted Ray Lewis?

[TheSport78]

Well we GOT our Ray Lewis, and his name is Keith Brooking. He is the HEART and SOUL of our team and we're so lucky to have him. Go Cowboys!!!

 

[Nexx]

trust me, ray lewis would have been just as much the heart and soul of this defense if he was here instead of brooking if not more. that being said, im very happy with brooking and dont regret not getting ray ray but you are disrespecting one of the best linebackers and leaders of all time if you dont think he wouldnt have been a great fit here.

 

[Yeagermeister]

Ray was never coming to Dallas.

What about money wise? We got Brooking for a BARGAIN and Ray Ray would have commanded a massive contract. Amazing offseason signings for Jerry. Sensabaugh, Brooking and Olshansky are all extremely solid signings.

lol That's like us saying that about CJ and Felix. I'm happy with Felix but lets keep it real here. Watch how his defense murders Tom Brady today. That's a guaranteed W

 

[The Panch]

Im not losing any sleep over it(cause of the price tag), and Brooking's great, but he's no Ray Lewis.

This board wanted anything with a pulse. There was a Santa sighting at VR some years ago. That's what 13 years will do to some.

 

[Hypnotoad]

Ray was never coming to Dallas.

Was just leveraging for his contract. The guy hates cowboys and hates Garrett.

Ray was never coming to Dallas.

......but he woulda been a "killer" in our 3-4

I'm glad we didnt get Ray Lewis. He's a thug and he's been overrated for several seasons.

Brooking had a great year for us. He's a good person and he cost less than half what Lewis did.

 

[TheSport78]

Lewis, Ray ACT TCKL 134 SCK 3.0 FF 2 INT 0

Brooking, Keith ACT TCKL 106 SCK 3.0 FF 0 INT

Anybody have the contract numbers for both players?

How do you know he's a good person? He's your homeboy? Self defense makes you a thug now? I see

lol That's like us saying that about CJ and Felix.

What about Reggie Bush vs. Felix and CJ?

oh, i agree with you on that 100%, brooking is a poor mans version of ray ray but a very good poor man version. im really excited about brooking this year.

ray ray's pregame speach > brooking's pregame speach. :laugh1: :laugh2:

 

[Romo2Dez4six]

this is where I disagree.. I love what Brooking brings, but he is by far no Ray Lewis. I would like to have both of them..

 

[Future]

Yea...and it would have been a great move two or three years ago when it was being discussed.

goodbye tom

 

[fanfromvirginia]

I was one of the people in here who wanted Lewis. I am very happy we got Brooking instead and to admit I was way wrong.

 

[bbgun]

Silly. For all we know, Lewis could have been just as good or better. That said, Brooking was a nice consolation prize.
