So tired of these terrrible offseasons

NorthwestDallas40 · May 23, 2017

I am so angry. Yet another offseason gut punch. Our best pass-rushing lineman (and my pet cat for breakout player) to miss the first four games, including the key division opener against the NYG. And Zeke investigation still looms... Year to year, it is so difficult to get excited over this team, just knowing in the pit of your stomach, that something bad always awaits. Last year alone: Randy Gregory suspension, Demarcus Lawrence suspension, Charles Tapper undisclosed, season-ending injury, Kellen Moore season-ending injury, Tony Romo season-ending injury, Zeke investigation. All before the first game... I am so tired of these terrible offseasons. Maybe it's the high-profile nature of the team, but I really don't see other teams losing as many players as us, year-to-year. I'm just sick, tired, and angry.

Football is hard enough. Acquiring dolts to rely on makes it even harder.

You're only saying this because it's our team. Fans of other squads are all saying the same thing about their teams. It comes with the territory.

I suppose, but other than BS Deflategate, when was the last time the Pats, Seahawks, Packers or Giants lost a player due to suspension?

we just went 13-3 last season. That's including those suspensions and injuries.

Giants 2016- Nikita Whitlock and Josh Brown both suspended.

Packers 2016- demetri Goodson, Mike pennel, Letroy Guion all suspended.

Seahawks lead the NFL in PED suspensions underneath Pete Carol regime.

Patriots 2016 Robert ninkovich and Alan branch both suspended.

Like I said you pay more attention to the cowboys because that is your team. Everybody deals with suspensions every year.

Outside of Dallas, everyone is saying David who??

robjay04 · May 23, 2017

I remember having a long stretch where we never had anyone suspended, I think it was the longest stretch of the league.

Now we have dropped that whole golden boy image. It's frustrating at times but we did just have arguably our two best seasons since the Super Bowl years so it's not all bad.

its way to early to get excited to many things can happen just have to see how it goes

A lesser known player called Timmy Brody served four game for the New Inkland Patricks last year also.

Myself, I don't want someone in the foxhole next to me...who is taking a smoke break.

Why not?

Regardless of the Suspensions and injuries that happened during training camp and pre season last year we still won the division and went 13-3.

If anything you should feel more encouraged that this team was able to perform with those things going on in the background.

Anytime we're not playing football or at least being in camp is terrible.

JackOfNoTrades · May 23, 2017

I get where you're going but we'd have to agree last off-season could arguably be ranked as our best in franchise history

So tired of these terrrible offseasons
