Think the Jones' boys are seeing Lawrence wreak havoc on the Vikes?

They are more worried about the bottom line. The Joneses want to horde draft picks and keep players under team control. It hurt to pay Dak that contract.
They are 24 and 10 over the last 2 years and favored to win 1st playoff game. They are doing good

Lawrence is a beast and not just a run-stuffer. He's a legit 3-down DT who can rush the passer...that's what this defense has been missing. But you're not going to find those after the 1st round usually

"Favored to win 1st playoff game".

That and a quarter won't even get you a cup of coffee. How's that "we were favored" going to play if they don't win tomorrow night?

Interesting that you didn't mention they crapped the bed last year as a home favorite in the playoff first round.

I got murdered for saying this.
I would guess because you overstated the case on Ridgeway. He's a JAG and yet some acted like we exposed the next Aaron Donald or Chris Jones to the waiver wire.

The issue with Ridgeway wasn't that he was any good (he's nothing but a serviceable rotation guy at best) and got snapped up, it was that it appears the Cowboys simply mis-managed the situation.

We all should be on the Payne train this offseason if Washington does not tag him. Lawrence has had a break out season.
Jones Inc. does not spend in free agency... but they will bargain basement shop late in the season. Blue light specials.

I just care what they do now. You don't think they are going to win? I would think that you would think that they would win.

That's just a bunch of bs on your part. You have no idea about what you are talking about. If you don't like what they are doing now, it's just strange on your part. They are a 12 win team and favored to win the first playoff game.

Be quiet and let the men talk

The Jones boys tend to limit how help they provide to the coaches and the roster. They both undervalue the DT position and think that any bafoon can coach this team to its first road playoff win in 30 years.

A legitimate DT can simply wreck things all by himself.

Our two "GMs" have yet to figure that out.
I said the same in the Giants game thread, unfortunately Jerry doesnt want to pay for non-flashy player , and Stephen doesnt want to pay anyone.
