I’ll keep this short & sweet: this team is broken and they do not hear McCarthy anymore. GB loss plus loss of DQ appears to have done this team in. I fully expect another BAD loss on Thursday vs the Giants, which will result in the team fully imploding. Will Jerry fire McCarthy mid year? Probably not, bc he just doesn’t care anymore. I’m fully prepared for a 5-12 season and i’d implore the few still-delusional hopeful fans out there to do the same.

Look this loss still hurts, too much to post and not get angry and get benched at people are giving up and saying there is nothing that we can do to turn the season around!!



and I say I watched this team start out 3-5 in 2018 and I realize they went out and got amari Cooper…



but I like the way they fought at the end of the game, and by the way please don't call that garbage time, they literally were one or two tackles away like asking the defense to make a stop you know around the under 3 minute mark to getting our wonderful kicker who can probably kick a 70 yard field goal in range to tie the game when you're that close this is not garbage time!!



So, anybody who says that was garbage time and the Ravens let up wasn't watching the game, they were not allowing us to score, they did not pull out their starters they did not call off the dogs so I'm going to say from what I saw at the end of that game and all the angry sideline rants and emotion coming out from our players theres hope to get this turned around!!


The fact is in 2018 we started three and five and turned the damn season around and ended up in the second round of the playoffs, I'm not giving up I'm not that kind of fan, yes the defense has caused us to have to rethink and redo everything because it's historically bad ,you can't continue to start games to where you give up 20,19, and 16 points to start the last three games, that's halftime point deficits!!!!

That puts too much pressure on the rest of the team and it's not fair they need to get that **** fixed but I saw a lot of fight at the end of that game and I know everyone's going to come in here and say it was garbage time, and I'm telling you I'm not playing that game,


I watched the game they fought back and they had it within three that is not garbage time the Ravens almost gave up and blew this game and choked that is not garbage time.



they found some emotion they found some fight and they fell short and yes I know it looked like the game was out of reach but in the NFL no game is out of reach...


So, again anybody who doesn't want to read this, I am not going to listen to this was garbage time and the game wasn't as close as the final score that is not true they found a way to get back in it if it wasn't for Trayvon Diggs or even our best player in Parsons biting once again and allowing that first down that pretty much ended the game they make one stop and I promise you they would have got into range to at least try to tie the football game so it wasn't not garbage time...

This is why it's too early to be given up on the team and I get it we're all angry we're all upset, we're still in shock from the loss or a lot of you're going to say you knew it was coming.. so it didn't matter.. I get it, I understand and I and I'm on board it doesn't look good but we started out the season 3 and five in 2018 that's much worse than right now.


I think the fight they showed at the end I think they they're angry there's emotions there's passion running through this team I think they're seeing reality and all the talk is going to turn into actively trying to make themselves better each individual player and the coaching staff have now had to force themselves so look in the mirror and they're going to try to get this righted and they have plenty of season left to do so..


No I'm not a Homer, no I'm not a positive person, at all I'm not having this bright outlook, no silver lining, with all this positivity this is just my gut I'm telling you they're gonna fight their way back into this thing and they're going to make a season of it regardless of what happens at the end I don't care this isn't over.

I'm not debating it because I'm too angry ,that I don't want to hear about all the boneheaded nonsense that everyone's going to say how they knew this was going to happen it was the offseason there's no help coming everything Bob said most of it was true except for the fact that he thinks we can't fix this and I'm saying that I think that we can and until we're mathematically eliminated we have no chance at a wild card I'm going to continue to hope my team does well and know we're not going to finish in a top five draft pick situation I don't see that happening...

Again I'm not getting into it this is just my statement this is my post-game statement because I was too upset to do it last night I feel like we're going to get this thing righted enough to at least find our way into something at the end of the year.....

They aren't going to win many more games with the current chemistry. A full coaching cleanse might help in the short term, but the usual problems will always come back. That won't have a chance to change until Jerry isn't calling the shots.

Waiting for Micah to run Zimmer over with a bus on the podcast this week and CD's momma to go on a Twitter rant about Dak. Told ya'll the wheels would be flying off during this first 7 games. Should have waited out the first half of the season at least before giving out those contracts...but here we are.

5 and 12 is being nice.
This team is fundamentally flawed and its all falling apart

There was never a question about the contracts, Jerry was NEVER going to not sign CD and Dak...AND MICAH..i dont know how he fooled some of you again. We had one shot and that was Dak walking away and he folded for the money.....If Dak would have hit FA and gone to a real FO that could've done something, but he took Barnums money and now he can deal with the heat and losses that comes with....

Until Jerry is no longer large and in charge you are just wasting time with other changes.

This and the last game exposed reality which is that this is a mediocre team

just how much talent we have is open to question because we do not have a very good coaching staff

we have some diva players who are certainly not helping team chemistry

and we are horribly weak on the DL and the O line needs a new coach at the least; I think we DO have the talent there to be good

Nah. At worst they are exactly the same.

People act like the defense the last two weeks is any different than it was last year.
Nope, you are wrong. He's objectively worse. Quinn has at least made it to a SB as a DC. Plus, his defense could generate turnovers. With Zimmer you get a big fat zero.

If they lose on Thursday, then yea, this is a spiral that won't be controlled.
A win Thursday doesn't mean the weaknesses won't be exposed again, but .500 is manageable in week 4.

Who hired the HC? The defensive coordinator? Who created this circus environment and culture where the players second guess the coach because of meddling ownership? If you could somehow get the best coach, and the best players from every team and made them cowboys, they would still play like this before long. It is and will continue to be a culture problem.

His defense didn't generate turnovers against good, balanced offenses. It is the same thing right now.

How do people watch the Green Bay, SF, and Seattle games and think "we need Dan Quinn." Ridiculous.
