Jerry Jones did Henry a big favor. Imagine if Henry signed with the Chiefs instead of the Ravens?

I dunno, do we really have room for a fast powerful RB that can score from anywhere on the field and just averaged over 11 yards a carry against one of the NFL's best defenses?

I mean, think about it....who could we cut to squeeze him in?

Seriously... I don't understand WTH we were thinking :oops:.

Someone like that becomes available... WANTS to sign with us, and we say ---- Nah :facepalm::huh:
We're good with Rico and Zeke?!

AND we paid Dak $60m PER!!!
This can't be real...
I feel like I'm in the twilight zone.

>>> The Jones' shouldn't be allowed to make 1 more football-related decision... They are dumb as a box of rocks. FTLOG o_O
Are you guys going to ask this every single time he goes off for 200 yards? We didn't sign him because our front office isn't very good and they waited too late to pay Dak and Lamb. We settled for Zeke.

1. We did not make a phone call. However we are to believe building a roster is 365 days a year and we leave no stones unturned.

2. We assumed we could not afford him.

3. Jethro is the GM

4. Jerry is the Owner

5. We really wanted a high ceiling, rock bottom expensive emergency QB instead.

6. Jerry thought Zeke was the solution.

7. It is a passing League.

8. Did I mention Jerry.

They lied about not being able to afford him.

the money was there to sign Henry. Don't believe LIttle and BIg Enos
It was there but they seem infatuated with carrying over salary cap space into the next season to make their salary cap higher. So since they've done that I'll assume they wanted to do it again next offseason. But they could've easily brought over the same space if they got Lamb and Dak done quicker.

Yes. We should ask every Sunday night moving forward and again mid week. We will also be asking during the playoffs when we aren't playing.
