This is why we can't have nice things

Stop expecting more, it is not going to get better. They have run the show for over 25 years. Jerry is 80 years old and no other NFL team would hire his son.

12 wins and a wild card playoff victory is as good as it gets. They're not going to crack the code. If they could, they would've done it already. This is our fate.

With better QB play in the divisional round, Dallas would have been getting ready to play Philly this weekend.

Everything was set up to win, but the QB struggled with his mental
Don't make the mistake of making Dak the scapegoat. That's what the Jones' want you to do. We hadn't gotten past the divisional round for nearly 20 years before Dak showed up. This is not to say that Dak doesn't have his faults. He needs to do better but he isn't the main problem at the Cowboys.

More by accident (Gregory -Denver) than design we are about to right the CAP ship, without killing the future with DEAD CAP. This does give us the option (possibly 2024, more than 2023) to go to the much anticipated/craved 'ALL-IN'. Jerry's last huzzah.

It’s really amazing they’ve been able to produce as much success as they have. You’d think we’d be more bottom tier than able to make the playoffs.

What they are much better at is hyping and selling their product. To the point fans start believing it’s more than it is. But the fall down to reality every year is always so painful for these fans who buy into the hype.

Unfortunately we have to go thru this process every year after the season.

Let’s see what happens in free agency this offseason. You have back to back 12 win teams. San Francisco and Philadelphia are loaded rosters that used free agency and made trades to better their rosters. This draft appears to be meh in talent. This is the perfect time to make a trade of that first round pick to get a Amari Cooper type of player. Deandre Hopkins is worth that 26th pick. The Cowboys history says they will try to be cheap and will try to low ball OBJ and his two ACLs to sign a contract.

Well Dak seems to improve a bit every year in some aspect. He seems to lack confidence and reading the open guy. He follows Lamb or Shultz because he don’t have the confidence in the others to get open.. I would keep Hilton. He is getting open. In fact on a long pass to a covered Lamb on 3rd down where Lamb almost made a circus catch, Hilton was running free because of busted coverage. He looked and went right to Lamb. Of he glances back over its. TD. Would have been a tied game.

Get another WR and RB this year in draft. Spend the rest on O-Line and DT.

The team that took the field last Sunday very clearly showed you they were capable of moving on except for one position. Jones have faults for sure but bottom line they assembled a team that was capable except they misjudged the most important position a few years back.

Put any number of QB's on the field and we are preparing to play this weekend.
