I don't let these people control my mind or tell me what to think or what I'm seeing.

They are putting on a show. They NEED to be controversial to keep the audience watching.
Its all part of the entertainment value. Take a stance and keep repeating it. A certain portion of your audience will agree with anything you say.

I listened to the Jeff Fruitcake on ESPN last night who included in his argument, "I played with two of the best in Peyton Manning and Aaron Rodgers, blah, blah, blah, horse snot, horse feathers, and more horse stuff......."

And I came away with the feeling either 1) the complainers here buy into his thinking, or 2) he reads this place.

Its like Cowlishaw talking about what the fans want.

Anybody see the news media doing any polls about what the fans want?
Anybody called you and asked Cowboy questions?
Anybody been stopped by some pollster on the street doing a Cowboys survey?

It all entertainment to grow their personality, and to garner viewers. It has no value in your real world.

If these kabobs told the truth they'd be saying, "If the fans ran things there would be a new QB, WR corps, TE, and a complete coaching staff. The organization would be in such disarray it would take three years to just get things organized enough to concentrate on the games!"

Its entertainment. Mental gymnastics. Garbage mentality at its finest.
That's a great way to deny the obvious. Its just entertainment... Wow. I've seen it all now. o_O

Dez went into yesterday's game leading the NFL in drops with 10. He added another 2 yesterday. Is that just entertainment?

I have a question for y'all... What percentage of Dak's picks yesterday were the fault of Dez Bryant?

I'll take 75%.

Keep watching.
You got a lot to learn if every kabob on TV can get you thinking like they do just because they played the game.
Ask yourself, "Why is he on TV and not GM or coach in the NFL?"

What percentage of his pick 6s were Dak's fault? I'll take 100%.

He couldn't hit Zeke from 5 yards away, or do you think he was actually trying to throw that to Dez? It was so poor that an argument could be made either way.

Ok. I'll humor you. I just asked myself.

My self replied "same reason why Jason Garrett and Jerry Jones aren't GMs or coaches".

Oh wait :oops:

Please don't label me as a Dez hater. I've been in Dez's camp for several years. The only thing I hate is losing. If we had more people in that coddled locker room that hate losing as much as I do, then perhaps we might have had the edge to win yesterday.

Dez is a shell of what some of us like to hang onto pre big paycheck. (which by the way he earned up to that point)... Moving him around, perhaps to a different position, is a nice idea but that doesn't change the cancerous personality of a person that obliterates the team environment. There is zero chance Dez adjusts to a lesser role on the team. Zero. Zilch. Nada.
Both of those are accusations, Dak publicly throwing his WR under the bus is more cancerous since he's suppose to be the future. You don't think players see that and start to wonder about their QB? Dez deserves criticism but to pile on like he's the biggest reason is ridiculous.

What's interesting is that TO said that when Garrett was coordinator, there were routes that TO wanted to run, in order to take over a game, they wouldn't let him do it. They had him do just a few things, and TO wanted way more routes than was given to him. Garrett HAS TO GO!

I’m convinced some of y’all don’t actually watch the games but rather read a box score and create a narrative based off of it.

Remove Dez from the situation and put Jerry Rice in his place in his prime and Dak would still have the same struggles.

Great recievers can’t make great QBs the way a Great QB can make a mediocre reciever good. It doesn’t work that way; one relies on the other.

Let the humor begin....

How many polls have you answered about the Cowboys?
How many calls have asked to do a Cowboys survey?
How many letters have you sent to Jerry?

How many years did YOU work in radio?
Have you ever set in a press box?
Have you ever met a team PR person?

Humor me. Tell me all about how much you know.........

Dak said what 51 other guys were thinking. He's straight.

Let's not forget Dak had not only the task of quarterbacking the Dallas Cowboys yesterday. He had the side job of baby sitting the sideline miscreant as well. Had Dak not gone over and calmed Dez down early in the game, he might still be crying on the sidelines. Get that clown outta here....

Dak isn't the issue. Does he need to improve, yes he does but he isn't finished with his second season yet and has plenty of room to grow.

This offense isn't built around Dak. The play calling isn't built around Dak. Sure they run read option at times but receivers are running deep routes like if Romo was still QB. I think Dak would benefit from a different offense, go to a quick passing game with the occasional deep routes. Short to immediate with run heavy

Throw it short and hope for a broken tackle?

True..

I also remember against the Cardinals Dez was playing CB and batted down at least 2 sure interceptions..

It goes both ways.
Dez went into yesterday leading the NFL in dropped passes at 10. He finished yesterday with 12. (Still league leading)

Any thoughts on that stat?

Dak and Dez have been awful together. If Dak doesn't overthrow him, he'll hit him in the face and Bryant grabs air
