Things we wish were true but aren’t

[Diehardblues]

So the answer to my question was, "no."

That’s where the bigger picture applies.

 

[Jake]

That would support it probably doesn’t matter.

We know it doesn't matter, and we know why. If these bozos could build a champion they would've done it by now.

 

[Ren]

The only players we have that are top 5 at their positions are Zack Martin and Parsons yet we pay multiple positions like if they were. We just need to stop overrating our talent

Yep

They did but they won’t follow the model again that took them there.

 

[TheHerd]

Probably cause of their size and single coverage .

No coverage is the ones I'm talking about though. Happens a lot. No one even looking at them.

They didn't build it. Stephen wasn't in his lofty position and Jerry was busy fixing the finances (and to his credit, he did).

Jimmy had personnel control and built that team, no matter who who wants to ignore it and pretend otherwise.

Wish Zeke wouldn't have gone downhill after he signed as the most expensive back in the league .

Of course but the point is they witnessed the model but refuse to follow it.

We are going to the Super Bowl this year!

The bigger picture is football is America's favorite sport in spite of Goodell, not because of him.

Too often a KB is responsible for coverage of TE and just can’t stay with them . And CB and S are usually undersized. And why a big TE with great hands is such a threat especially in middle of the field.

Yes but the moving parts behind the scenes with sponsors the networks and government oversight are more his responsibility with proper perception appealing to them is the bigger picture.

All some fans see is a game. There’s so much more moving parts in multi billion entertainment business.

Goodell is the least of the Cowboys problems though, unfortunately.

I'm not saying he is. I'm dealing with guys who think Goodell isn't responsible for his own decisions.

Tyron Smiths contract is "team friendly" . If you are frequently injured and out of the lineup, then when you do play you get a holding penalty or allow a key sack on a qb the you know needs 7 seconds to throw the ball.

The NFL is so big it doesn't matter which teams win now. They make billions, regardless.

The "moving parts" don't matter, but they make great excuses for teams who fail.

Yep

Winning or success on the field used to drive revenue but not anymore. Cowboys are a beautiful example.

I certainly haven’t said that. I’ve said his decisions represent the interest of the owners and the league.

You think you're saying something profound here, but what it amounts to is you think he's great in spite of fair criticism.

No. You're saying he can't be held responsible for his decisions because of who he represents.
