Sturm: fans are quick to blame the best defensive and offensive players

[pansophy]

Groundbreaking concept that the highest profiled players are under a microscope compared to the the JAG lol

This is actually the problem. We‘ve got a bunch A+ players surrounded by a ton of C players and expect the A+ players to make up the difference.

A+ players sell tickets but we‘d be better off with fewer of them and a lot more B to B+ players.

So true......
As the saying goes, they are fan favorites until the 2nd contract

I remember when Sturm used to be good

So if someone averages 15 sacks a season on their 1st contract....they will get a 2nd contract making 5 times the amount they made in their 1st contract. Does that mean they should go from 15 sacks a season to 75 sacks a season because they are making 5 times as much? It takes a team to win. The best players STILL need help. But the best players will get the paid the most. This is not a new concept!!!!!!!!!!!!

with the big bucks comes big expectations

bottom line is that the boys stank it up for 50 minutes and only got close because the Ravens relaxed and lost their edge; BUT when the game was truly on the line they sucked it up and did what they had to

This team has not shown it can do that. They can get close but not close the deal

and in the end it is quite reasonable to expect the stars to make plays
and Parsons really did not

I recommend that Sturm should have looked at that earlier CZ film breakdown by AKOYE before writing this piece. At least concerning vet defensive star failures that is.
It convinced me.

Is Micah on his contract year? As of now, he is statically on pace to have his worse season.

Why should he try? He already knows Jerry is going to cave and give him a monster contract regardless of how he plays.

He's not wrong. The things folks used to say about Ware are exactly what they say about Parsons. Garbage time sacks, he disappears too much, etc...It was crazy then and it's crazy now

 

[pansophy]

Yep. How many Cowboys that fans have complained about have gone to win a Super Bowl somewhere else? Too many and Ware is one of them. We need more B / B+ players and that may mean fewer stars that sell tickets.

Sturm gets dumber by the season.

One thing about Tony that can’t be said about Prescott, he ALWAYS showed up to the fight. Regardless of who the Cowboys were playing, you could count on Tony to be competitive, he elevated his game!!!! Prescott on the other hand has to have everything around him just perfect or the wheels fall off the bus immediately after the game starts.
