Sean Lee: Cowboys have 'taken a step back' and 4-9 record is 'what we've earned'

http://sportsday.***BANNED-URL***/d...7/cowboys-lb-sean-lee-teams-4-9-record-earned




Sean Lee doesn't mince words.

The Cowboys didn't just happen to fall to the bottom of the NFC East. They aren't closer to a top five pick than a playoff spot due to injuries or bad luck.

They earned it.

"We didn't expect this at all, but this is what we've earned,'' Lee said. "We have to find a way to play better football and we have to find a way to continue building. We haven't done that.

"We have guys in here who have won in the past and we have to get back to that winning formula. That starts with this game and it starts going forward.''

Injuries go a long way in explaining the team's 4-9 record, but Lee refuses to accept that premise.

"You can't use that as an excuse,'' the Cowboys linebacker said. "You have to find a way to win ballgames...

That's fine and dandy and all that, but losing Romo and Bryant did set the course in a bad direction and then like a ship, they lost all steering and ran aground. Doesn't mean the crew forget how to sail, just that the Captain and First Mate were in sick bay and no adequate navigator remained.

The China Doll has spoken. He is an expert on Injuries so Injuries Cannot Be an Excuse for 2015.

Yeah, Lee has earned us a lot of grief.
Hey, Sean, how is your arm tackling coming along? We could really use you in our Farmers Branch Pop Warner team Sons of the Fighting Idiots where the team stresses arm tackling and lots of slapping.

Are you kidding? Have you been watching Lee. He is clearly one of the top linebackers in the league. He is all over the field and he tackles hard and sure.

Calling out Lee? Of all of the players on this team that don't deserve to be called out its him. Hes been a force this season.

Every team in the league has injuries so I agree last year we did not have him for the playoffs and no one use that as an excuse so stop putting down what he said !

Hey is the Hay ride tonight at Farmer's Branch !!!

Bollocks the city laws! They were discontinued when one of our drunken hay riders fell of the cart and the city was sued for $670 in punitive, actual damages and $59 for emotional distress.
The city now will use a city bus with lots of hay inside and drunkards will not be allowed to board unless they can say Sean Lee Sells Seashells by the Seychelles Seashore 5 times in a row or if they fork up a $50 hush-hush fee.
We missed you at the all you can eat pork pie festival. Two fights broke out but luckily only head blows were delivered and no vulnerable body parts were hit.
And, lad, don't quit school like you threatened. Don't end up like me, charming but with little intellectual capacity.

And he has stayed healthy.

Concussions are another story, I don't really count concussions as a traditional injury considering there isn't much you can do to prevent one and teams are forced to follow protocol and hold players out if feels necessary.

I like your sense of humor! Much mirth, my boy. Yeah, he's all over with his fancy arm tackles. And let me tell you something, if you play his position and DO NOT become the leading tackler there is something seriously wrong with you.
Now get on and give us a hug and don't make me laugh with more yarns about Sean Lee's worth. He would be worth, on the NFL market, a 4th round pick and a barrel of gatorade. But then again, who wants a part-time player? We do, that's who.

I call out a China doll and all the girls are defending him. Gotta hand it to Sean, he might be a part-time player but he's constantly in the hearts of the naive here.

I am not putting down the China Doll's statement, I am actually agreeing with him. Injuries are not and should never be an excuse.
