Stephen: This can be a quick fix

As much as I hate to agree with Stephen, this time, I suspect he might be right. The Cowboys are developing a new system, and it will take time for decent players to do decent things. Far too many changes might have been too much all at once for new coaches and players to play like pros. With that in mind, I can easily picture desperate players doing desperate things. Of course, desperation is also prompting me to say such things, but it is the time for success, at last. Call me crazy, but this is the kinda game whereby the Cowboys usually rise to the occasion. Cowboys 31, Commanders, 27.
Don't lie to yourself. There is no quick fix because the guys who would do the fixing are incompetent.
 
Oh, ye of little faith . . . the Cowboys always take their losses almost as hard as their fans do. :)

They are destined to follow their given path and beat the former Commanders to a bloody pulp! o_O
It's pretty normal to expect the Cowboys to do precisely what nobody expects them to do! :grin:
 
There's a premium that comes with being the owner AND the QB of the Dallas Cowboys...so it just is what it is. I mean Justin Herbert is making 52m...Jalen hurts is getting 51m...and I know Hurts has a Super Bowl...and that MUST be respected. But if you replace Dak with Hurts...is Dallas better? Heck Trevor Lawrence was 35-42 with 1 playoff win coming into this season...and he is getting 55m a year. So the QB thing is wacky for every team, not just Dallas.

This team didn't even want to pay Derrick Henry (who lives in Dallas and by all accounts wanted to be here) $7 or $8 million a few years ago...so again...do you trust this front office with an extra $7m? So I don't blame Dak one bit. But like I said, I do understand the frustration..and Dak and Jerry are easy targets...especially with Jerry having the longest tenure in the front office and Dak having the longest tenure in Dallas currently on the roster.

I said it in an earlier thread...if this defense is still floundering at the bottom of the NFL by the end of this year...and Dak plays well enough this year to still show value...we should seriously see if we can move off of him...that is what would be best for ALL parties.
I simply disagree that it is what it is. Not sure how a little cliche fits here, but OK.

Prolly too late to get any value for Dak, especially w/ his contract.
 
Wow! When they gotta sell season tickets still it's "Superbowl or bust" talk.

Now, "it's a work in progress and we can get this thing fixed quick".

Masters of BS.

Like I said in the preseason keep that chatter in the locker room and out of the media.
i just want us to go on win streak

So are you saying players should not ask or get close to their market value? You can say YOU don't want to pay it...but top 10 QBs get 50m+ per year...that....is what it is
 
For some us having watched what we went through last year on defense saying that this can be a quick fix can be an extreme. We'd rather they prove it than talk about it.

As I said, there are answers he could have given between we think this can be a quick fix and we're doomed. Maybe just we're working on it.
It wouldn't matter. If they said they were working on it the chuckleheads out there would still be running around this board whining.
