For all of you upset this morning. Just relax you are about to go on a ride with this team like the 90's! We need to make just a couple more additions in defense and the Dynasty will be formed! We need a pass rusher, and a CB. And we will be set! And we have Jaylon to look forward too already! So frustrated yes! But, Excited for the future!

I agree 100%...get ready to duck however...seems most here expect that we should win every game...I enjoyed this season, second only to the 92-93 season!

I agree, i admit i went back and forth this morning. But, time to move on for me. Looking forward to the draft, free agency and OTAs.

Hard to get a legit pass rusher in FA. Even harder to get one the late 1st. I'm for trading up to get our guy but I'd doubt that he will provide more than 7 sacks as a rook.

Jaylon is not a pass rusher but more of a hybrid LB. Big, super athletic but only 4.5 sacks in 3 seasons at ND. This draft is chalked full of DE but we may need to move up to get an impact one better than what we have..

Gregory suspension really hurts next season. Now we have to trust Jerry to make aggressive and smart moves.

Overall I agree with the OP, but this offseason is crucial.

DB - 4 players are up for free agency
RT - needs upgraded
DE - Needs premium attention, no more band aid fixes (1st round pick or big name FA, possibly both)
LG - Do you keep Leary? Is Collins the man?
WR - Do you keep Williams? Can you find better?

That is a lot to address in one offseason. Now no team is flawless, but some of these have to be addressed, especially DE. The front office will have failed if we go another season with Demarcus Lawrence as our top DE.

We had to win two home games, against two heavily flawed teams, to get to Houston.

I cannot overstate enough the fact that opportunities like that come around so rarely. We may never see it again in our lifetimes.

This was the year.

Yeah I'm not even mad. I just shrugged when that chump hit the fg. We play gb next year. Look forward to that game. A beating they'll never forget.

Resting players is to blame, they were so rusty in the first half, stupid penalties killed it, on the first drive they had GB stopped ready to punt, some stupid penalty lost a great confidence boost. The same thing happend in 07
The rest/bye week hurts them imo.

I'm already over it. It sucks that we lost, however, at the end of the day there are 31 losers and 1 champion.

If we're being realistic, the likelihood of us being that champion, this year, was very low. What we discovered in the process was very much worth the ride in my opinion.

These Cowboys are going to give us something to be proud of for the next several years.

Yeah I'm not doing so well today either. It was much worse right after the game though. Last night I got in my car and just drove around in the tornado weather blasting a song called Stress Relief by Tech N9ne. If you've never heard that song I don't recommend looking it up.

Maybe one day I'll witness this team win it all :(. I'll still support the Boys til the day I die though.

Ogbah (six sacks), Spence (5.5 sacks) and Ngakoue (eight sacks) were all drafted in the second round or later last year. We might not get an immediate Pro Bowl pass-rusher, but we should be able to get someone to help us, if we pick the right guy. I mean, the standards are pretty low around here -- a measly two sacks and no suspensions would actually be an improvement.

Couldn't have said it any better!

That's exactly what I said... but whatever. Gregory I thought was going to turn the corner. He was rated very high.

We need to do what that 90's team did to put us over the top...find a Charles Haley.
