People were saying Amari was some kind of locker room cancer, a no show in important games. And I believed that too. But despite that I always knew sending him off for a 5th was I e of the most stupid trades our GM did. But not only that. Seems that it wasn't Amari, who should have been ousted.
Thats how desperate the FO was to put out any fires concerning locker room and dak that they squashed Coop and his contract in one fail swoop...

Amari was a problem, too. Dude is great, but he doesn't like football. He plays chess all the time. Football is just something he does because he can.
If he plays chess all the time than that explains his route running abilities.
Coop always was where he needed to be, he was doing his role perfectly, problem came when he whispered that Dak may have a serious issue, or several.

Was the offensive cast just that much better 2016-2020?
We had Cooper for some of that. Dez and Beasley for some of it. Don't forget a productive Zeke. Dak's horrible play can be mapped to Zeke's production. More productive Zeke was the less Dak was asked to do. The less productive Zeke became the more Dak was asked to do.

Honestly, and I still like Dak, I think that leg injury a few seasons ago may really have done him in. He's not as mobile as he once was, and his play wasn't good. There were a lot of times where the receivers were blanketed, but there appeared to be some openings, and missing Cooks down the sideline and the third interception were howlers. And, with his contract the way it is, the time has come to find the next QB of the Dallas Cowboys. He can't be extended unless he really turns it around and does impressive things like get to an NFCC. Until then, we need to find another QB.
he was never that mobile, plus qb mobility is so dang overrated, really.

Coops statements contradicted what Jones believed. So naturally he had to go.

Not big games, outside, on the road, Amari disappears. No matter who he plays for.

He needed to go.

Dak has been bad and I know a lot of Cowboy fans will celebrate his departure, but the bigger issue will still be here.

You have a GM whose ego will not allow him to recognize his mistakes, will only hire “yes men” as head coaches, has too short of a timeline to allow for a complete tear down and rebuild of your team, and has the job for life regardless of his success or failure.

Your only hope is once the son takes over and is out from under Daddy’s shadow, he is smart enough to hire a real GM and head coach.

As far as Dak goes this game against the Chargers will tell us a lot. Will he rebound and have a solid game and forget about the media demons or will he just add fuel to their fire, HUGE GAME FOR DAK THIS WEEK!

things that make you go hum....They hate Romo, but love dak........humm
I know where you are going but there is no need to.
How long have several of us that knew of Daks deficiencies and extremely low ceiling been criticized for our opinions about Daks abilities.

I'm loving it. I've been waiting for this for a while. This makes me as happy as the garrett days when finally people saw that he was a piece of crap too.
