So now the blinded Cowboys fans again, have "hope" after beating the G-Men.
But the lose saw Lawrence/Parsons both go down and will miss weeks.
Now what? So is going to "step up" in their place? What undrafted / free agent scrap heap player is going to fill their shoes?
When you pay players, record deals because "they deserve it" when the T-E-A-M has not even seen a NFC Conference game in 28 years only hurts the team
What had the Cowboys the "Team of the 90s" was Jimmy Johnson realizing that when took over, the TEAM didn't have the talent so Jimmy/Jerry
traded away their BEST player-- Herschel Walker --- for many draft picks back to BUILD the team.
Eventually, players ( even all-pros) go down and then next player is due up. When you loaded up on one player and have nothing behind him, you really don't
have a team but few individuals, making soaking up salary cap and left with undrafted players behind them.
Have no problem with players getting BIG contracts ONLY IF the team succeeds. Until then, I am trading away my better players to keep loading up on draft picks
to create an entire team not undraftee or "has beens" to fill out your roster. Build a team, not a marketing dept for jerseys sells.
