The team can not fall apart because of 1 injury

The biggest loss is the genius that Tfred is in calling everything out. Dak has stated that himself.

It just sucks, but that's life in the NFL. We already know JG is lousy.

Well we got blown out in 3 games and won 3 playing bad competition. I guess if the competition isn't as good as everyone thinks ,we will be okay.

not gonna debate ya PA BUT with all the BS going on with Zeke, he's suspended, he's playing, he's suspended, he's playing we still managed 5-3 before he was actually suspended. If you want to diminish that, it's your choice
 
It would take a three-peat to convince me Garrett isn’t a below average at best coach.
 
The team won't fall apart because of one injury. It'll fall apart because it's poorly coached and lacks adequate depth, due to horrible personnel management by the old man who's made it clear he still manages the roster.

Why should this effect strategy? a) we still have 3 well above average O linemen and b) allegedly Zeke carries this team and can run with a lot of success behind any O line. There’s no reason Zeke still shouldn’t have a ton of yards.

As much as losing Fred hurts, we’re still better on the O line than most teams. I’m suprised to see so many people throwing in the towel, it’s ridiculous.

We're doomed!!!!! Stop ruining it for the doom and gloom crowd with all your level thinking!!!

As I’ve said, I’ve been more pessimistic this season than last but this is overboard. I absolutely think you’re right about JG. It didn’t take but a few minutes after finding out that Frederick will be out for awhile that many people made their obligatory “hope he’s ok” comment followed by their disparaging opinion of JG. The guy could win a SB and people would still complain we didn’t score enough points.

Implosion will not bother me.

For me it's a win win situation.

The Cowboys have needed a coaching change for awhile and i'm still chapped about the wasted careers of Romo, Witten, Ware, & Dez all for a coach that has no business having the job he has with the Cowboys.

Haha...I’ve been gloomy most of this season and have caught quite a bit of flak for it, now it’s my turn to talk people off the ledge. After they get their senses, I’ll go back to complaining about our largely unproven roster that many have already crown “beast” pro bowlers for doing almost nothing.

I'm sorry but it just can not happen again.

Frederick is a huge loss. His loss effect's the entire line. That's the reality.

It just can not be an excuse for the coaches though if the wheels fall off.

They will have had a few weeks to prepare for this and 1 hole in the boat that isn't the QB shouldn't sink the boat.

If Dallas fails this year then Jason Garrett just can not escape because of this 1 injury.

We can not have a coach that makes his team so fragile that the whole thing falls apart with an injury.

I agree with this unless that player is a QB

No I actually agree with aria. I just don't want to hear the excuse like we always get for Garrett about injuries.

It's football.. Players will get hurt.

Ok Catch, you're right Freddy is a loss. We have no idea for how long. This team did not fall apart last year with all the Zeke BS. They will not fall apart when Freddy misses time. More than anything the team will rally around him or should, especially the O-line. Garrett is very good at keeping the team focused, much to some fans disappointment

Horse dookie, look back at teams who had a key player die, or career ending something happen. What did they do, they rallied around it and made it a battle cry and WON games everyone picked them to lose. Garrett is a schmuck bottom line, Zeke getting that piss poor suspension, orchestrated by the swami himself Goodell, should have been what pushed this team to go lights out on the field. But what did we get, more pissing and whining from Garrett at the press conference's about how they need to be more focused, and make plays and blah blah blah. I know, it's not a bash Garret post, but lord I just have had a gut full of the little yes boy blaming everything but his own sorry lack of leadership.

The roster has upside everywhere but the pass game and safety position.

It may be too soon to call it beast but defensively the front 7 and corners should be really good and Zeke should have a big year offensively.

It shouldn't. Cowboys still need to do what they do.

However, the Garrett run has shown us that when things go pretty smoothly and there are no real hiccups, the team is pretty good. However, once that is disrupted, things can go sideways. 2015 and last year, things didn't go according to plan in terms of injuries, etc. and the team suffered. 2014, everything was perfect. Granted in 2016, losing Romo was huge and we adjusted.

But typically, less than ideal circumstances is not a great situation for this coaching staff to be in. I won't throw in the towel yet.
 
Seems our fans are already putting their end of the season gripes in the queue, or just getting a jump on them. Why wait until the end of the year to complain about the end of the year, right?

Good point as well. I hope the vultures aren't circling. Each player has a responsibility to keep their attitude in check.
