Even with the injuries, its not hard to see how far this team is away from being a contender.

Aside from questionable coaching, we have deficiencies all over the roster. We need:

QB
2 WRs
LT
NT
TE
S
RB
LB


Its going to take at least 2 more seasons to rebuild this roster smh

Correct but the illusion is we have thought we’ve actually been contenders for 30 years now. It’s fools gold w Jerry in charge.

Jerry thinks otherwise and wants you to go find another team. Make sure you buy some merch on your way out the door, though. Jerry can barely afford to buy food for his dog on the measly 15 billion he has in the bank.

I keep repeating it. This is just year one. I think it's going to get worse.

Been that way for a while, base just singles out players to mask the blame of our long tenured GM.

It certainly appears that way from today's game but I don't think it is quite that bad.

The injuries hurt. Take today's game. The Eagles picked on Booth all day and he was never up to the task. He was playing for Diggs. Diggs would not have allowed all those plays to succeed I am pretty sure.

I think Sam Williams would be better at DE than anyone Dallas played there. And of course Lawrence would help a lot too. I even think having Overshown would have helped with stopping Barkley. All those injuries hurt the defense a lot. Of course on offense, we did not have CeeDee Lamb or Dak.

Where the Cowboys need to add talent is on the defensive line, inside, and at RB. The offensive line is young and should get better next year just by developing the players they have. I wouldn't be against drafting OL, but they have to fix the interior DL, the edges and get a real RB. Rico got a 100 yards but so what? He leaves a lot of meat on the bone and no one is afraid of him.

With a bit of a commitment from Jerry Jones this team could be ready to beat the Eagles next year.

The Cowboys could make some serious headway this off season if they want to.

They can create a ton of salary cap room - but will they?

Sign some FA's and get back some healthy players and the roster improves quite a bit.
And add an impact draft class.

We need and can HOPE to get

The Cowboys can restructure Dak, Lamb, Diggs, and Steele's contracts and be sitting on around $80 million of available cap space.

But they won't. Jerry and Cap Boy already have this year's built-in excuse for doing nothing; "we have to pay Micah".

Which they can and still have a ton of money left over. They count on fans being naive.

Wow.
What a difference a week makes.
Tampa had/has a good roster including both sides of the ball and good QB play.
The team grinded out a hard fought, physical and tough.gritty win.
Philly down to back up QB but mostly intact otherwise.
The team did not look as though they were even on the same level as the Eagles for the 2nd time this year.

Sigh/shrugs...
The week to week life of the NFL.

They suck again.
Hopefully they'll improve.
Hopeful.
Next year and all.
Cowboys!
LOL
