To the Cowboys - with Regret from a long term fan

[PA Cowboy Fan]

Fans stop watching might be the only way to get rid of Garrett. The only thing Jerry respects.

Easy to scout - hard to beat has become easy to scout easy to beat.

The fact that we are so dependent on three players displays s shocking lack of scheming, adjustments and rost depth. Three examples of other teams losing those same positions.

The Panthers lost Luke Kuechley for three games and won all three.
The Eagles lost Jason Peters for the season and are 8-1.
The Steelers won 3 out of their first 4 games without suspended Leveon Bell.

Without Lee, Smith and Zeke we are hapless.

Agreed. All clubs lose top talent and survive. This is not the first time for the Cowboys. 2015 comes to mind. Injuries are a big part of the sport the real clubs adapt and move forward.

At this point my friend l would only feel satisfied with a change of ownership. I have made enough of the bumbling Jerry Jones.

 

[xwalker]

It may be a loser mentality in your eyes, but someone needs to step and make a decision regarding this team's performance. Maybe Stephen Jones? In the real world this coach would've been at least criticized or given a warning. If they continue to keep the coaching staff in tact, then as fans we see a state of denial from the owner himself. There should always be an exit strategy at all levels! Question is - is there an exit strategy for the coach and his staff and how much more do us fans have to witness before that strategy is implemented?

You have the choice to be a fan without spending any money. If you boycott spending money I would understand, but the Cubs have very devoted fans and went 108 years between championships.

I don't see how a real fan can abandon their team. I watched when they got beat 44-0 by the Bears in 85. It made that much better when they won 3 Super Bowls within the next 10 years.

Nope. You had a good streak going there & then you msesd it up..Lol

I'm the Cowboys, Lakers, Dodgers, Kings fan... Basically everything LA with the exception of the Cowboys.

Bleu do you live out here in LA?

 

[romothesavior]

I was there, watched it, expected it, and felt numb to it.

I feel very little connection to this team.

The off-field stuff, Jerry's endless antics, and a boring roster of overrated nothings...this season ended long ago to me.

Amen. Perfectly said.

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

As bad as the Cowboys have been, I would really hate being a Lion's, or Brown's fan. Not speaking to you specifically, but Jerry isn't going anywhere anytime soon, so if you cannot take Jerry being the owner of the Cowboys, go root for another team. I was a fan of the Cowboys long before Jerry showed up, and I won't let Jerry ruin my being a Cowboy fan.

Sorry, good lad. I got carried away with frustration.
You are certainly a good fan. I can't be called a fair-weather fan (not that you implied that) because I have stuck by the Boys since me mum would feed me a bottle of milk before leaving to the pub.
I cried when Jackie Smith dropped the ball in the end zone...

That is he post I should have written. Thank you, good lad.

I'm 55 and have been a real fan since I was 6 years old toting Lone Star beers back and forth for my grandpa. I've been through a few good and bad seasons myself. I strongly believe Cowboy fans rank way up there in all professional sports. I'm not here to gauge the level of devotion or actions of my fellow fans by no means. I would just like to see some evidence that we are still a playoff team. Our depth is questionable at best. Granted we are one of the youngest teams, but the Vikings, Saints, Rams and Eagles seem to be heading in the right direction. Us - not so much.

 

[Dre11]

Fans are merely consumers for a money making enterprise such as the NFL. It's preposterous and arrogant for a business to feel entitled to consumer loyalty when it consistently delivers a substandard product.

Did you say that last season. Or are they front runners

 

[Dre11]

No, they go away until the Cowboys start winning like last season and then resurface.

Or they go in hiding and come out whining at the first sign of adversity

 

[Bleu Star]

Bleu do you live out here in LA?

Nah. I've been on the Florida panhandle for the last 18 years.

 

[sbark]

No it hasn't. It's just not talented enough coached well enough to over the loss of Zeke and Lee.

Dez is the only player that I've seen quit at times.

speaking of that........I was struck on Dak's Pick 6...............Dak is the only player that showed up on the Tv screen with a attempt to tackle D.King........Dak slowed him up some, figured someone would at least hustle into the TV picture in chase.

from a long term fan ,

The Atlanta game showed why JG is not a head coach. Even a school coach would have done something to help the OT from being beaten up like a rented mule.

JG still lives in the 90's pre salary cap era , when my Guy is better than yours , plain execution can beat you down and we will impose will mindset, has no answers when the guy is not a guy but a backup. Next man up works in some cases , if all next men are as good they wont be next men , they go somewhere to become The Guy.

He has no answers schematically how to utilize what he has , make best use of . Every opponent has told us JG schemes are so simple. Now its becoming evident .

Dak is not an finished product , now he is trying to do too much when he doesnt have OL help and RB help and going back to bad habits , from foot work to decision making. He doenst have Romo who was better than the whole Cowboys coaches together.

Yesterday was the first time , I didnt watch the match when I could have , since I had a bad feeling after the 2nd half of the eagles game.

Jerry Please wake up ! Tear the whole coaching staff , bring in some hard working young blood, and LET GO!

bring in some Hard working?

Your avatar is...nice. She's got quite a pan on her handle.

 

[TheDude]

Sorry, but it's a loser mentality to quit watching when your team is down.

Not really

Each person has a price or value on their time.

Real change only comes when consumer apathy sets in.

E.g , parcells after campo

 

[Section446]

The NFL product as a product is at an all-time low, even the best of games on paper are virtually impossible to watch.

 

[BobSacamano]

Being a fan of this team is akin to being in hospice care. Just waiting for **** to end.
