The Pacman fiasco

[CowboyPrincess]

IMO... It is only a small part of what is plaguing the Cowboys right now

The team isn't inspired

A defense that bites

a coach that is way too soft

Jerry Jones coaching

No qualified BU QB to step in for Romo

The media circus surrounding Pacman - Tony/Jessica - registration fraud involving our star players names - Media goating players

And the biggest reason....

14 Players with some type of injury or illness and alot due to the above problems

PQB Tony Romo (finger) - Romo did not play in Sunday's game. He was the backup quarterback and had his fractured throwing pinkie protected by a splint and bandages. Wade Phillips said his status for this week was "To be determined." Phillips also expected the approach to the injury this week to be similar to last week.

S Roy Williams (forearm) - The five-time Pro Bowler returned to the field Sunday for the first time since Week Two, but it proved to be too early. Williams again broke his right arm, this time in a different spot. He will be placed on IR and will wear a cast instead of facing surgery.

LB Bradie James (elbow) - James suffered a hyper-extended left elbow during the second quarter Sunday, but returned to the game the next series. In the locker room after the game, the elbow was wrapped with ice. He told a coach he hoped to practice this week, and didn't have any protection over the arm Monday.

S Keith Davis (head) - After losing vision momentarily and having his eyelid flip open on a big block on special teams, Davis returned to the game after a break. He also played Sunday with a lacerated thumb.

RB Felix Jones (hamstring) - Missed practice all week and is out two to four weeks after pulling his hamstring early in the third quarter against Arizona. He did not travel to St. Louis.

LB Kevin Burnett (calf) - The Cowboys special teams ace and sub-package linebacker was held out of practice all week with a calf strain evidently suffered in the Arizona game. He said the calf was fine, but Burnett did not take his usual role on the nickel and dime defense, and had more limited duty on special teams.

LB Anthony Spencer (hamstring) - Suffered the hamstring strain against the Cardinals and was out for the St. Louis game after missing all week of practice. Early last week, Phillips classified him as week to week.

CB Terence Newman (sports hernia) - Had surgery performed by hernia specialist Dr. William Meyers in Durham, N.C., Oct. 10 and is expected to be out at least four weeks. Mike Jenkins will replace him in the starting lineup after Pacman Jones' suspension, and Orlando Scandrick will come in on the sub-packages.

LG Kyle Kosier (foot) - While Wade Phillips said Kosier is close to a return, the veteran guard isn't quite back after reinjuring his foot against Green Bay. He didn't travel to St. Louis. Cory Procter has filled in as the starter, but Montrae Holland got some work for the third straight game.

S Pat Watkins (neck) - Despite having full participation in practice this week, Watkins was ruled out on Friday, making the game the third straight he didn't play, recovering from reoccurring stinger injuries.

NT Tank Johnson (ankle) - Johnson has been dealing with a nagging right ankle injury suffered in Week Three against Green Bay, but has not missed a game. He played behind Jay Ratliff Sunday.

DE Marcus Spears (illness) - The defensive end played Sunday while still fighting through a stomach virus that forced him out of practice Friday.

P Mat McBriar (foot) - Has been placed on injured reserve with fractured bones in his right foot after Arizona's Sean Morey collided with him on the blocked punt to end Sunday's game. That means he is out for the season. The Cowboys have signed first-year punter Sam Paulescu to replace him.

WR Sam Hurd (ankle) - Had surgery to repair torn ligaments after he suffered a high ankle sprain against the Cardinals last Sunday. The Cowboys placed him on injured reserve on Oct. 16 to make room for veteran linebacker Carlos Polk.

The wheels began coming off during the Commanders game when there slopiness and lack of focus began to haunt them....this has little to do with PacMan though he makes for a convenient scapegoat.

Having spent my career dealing with antisocial types, I feel more than qualified to voice an opinion. Heck, my opinion has even been accepted in a court of law. Has your's?



Violence is the common theme. Don't care the cause, the dude is just violent. Won't be long before he is in prison. He will find it hard to drink in there, even harder to find people to be violent towards. His feet ain't that big.



Wasn't making anything up. If I was a veteran player I would be pissed that a guy that was supposed to be an important part of our team couldn't keep his butt out of trouble. Are you saying they shouldn't be pissed?

Youre not a veteran player nor are you a million dollar athlete. Do not deign to know what they think. I am not saying they should or shouldnt anything.

Your kind is the type that likes to think they know how other people should act or not act. I don't try to live other peoples lives for them.

As for court and whatnot. I do not do any consulting that requires that but if asked I would be more than qualified to break down an accident or mechanical failure.

I do not have any interest in psychology. Its quite near a pseudoscience and at the end of the day is just a lame practice of Aristotelian classifying. Just because you name something doesn't mean that you have any true understanding.

Its like here: you call him antisocial and you think you have any idea of who or what Adam Jones is. You hide behind your semantics and Ill try to figure out whats really going on.

Adam Jones has a drinking problem. He goes to bars, gets drunk and violent. All of these confrontations hes had involve alcohol. Each and everyone does.

If he can quit drinking there is no doubt in my mind he would turn his life around. You must truly be mean spirited because any thoughts of making a good man out of Mr. Jones and people like you turn around and condemn.

Hes a human being just like you and hes got a problem. While you simply want to throw him away, i want him to do well. just like i want everyone to do well.

Adam Jones had nothing to do with this team losing.

Last time I checked, before Adam Jones arrived, this team had folded in the December, hadn't won a Playoff Game in over a decade and a HOF coach was calling them the stupidests players he had ever coached.

As a matter of fact, most will disagree but Adam Jones was probably playing the best out of that secondary, even though he was still rusty.

Adam Jones is a patsy and I still think it was a good decision to bring him based on what Tennessee was offering.

Again, Jerry Jones has taken a chance on Tank, Pacman and TO and a famous man once said, "Two out of three ain't bad".
