The NFL is set up to help struggling bad teams.
Only nominally. In practice, the draft is a total crap-shoot, wherever you may sit in the pecking order. For every Ryan Leaf, there is a Brock Purdy. How many top-tier draft picks have the Detroit Lions claimed over more than a half-century...with not a single Super Bowl appearance to show for it? Hey, they may get there this year...with their arguably best player having been drafted in the fourth round (112th overall).

It seems the real business of roster-building, as practiced by the more consistently-competitive teams in the League, is done through free agency. For whatever reason, the Cowboys' front office has in recent years shown little interest in seriously engaging that market...with predictably-dismal results.

I'll probably still get my Cowboys tattoo this offseason. Maybe it will be lucky? Lol

We are so lucky that we lost that game. It could have easily gone the other way.

No he didnt. He made exactly the right tackle. The LB (Kendricks) had backup support on the QB but whiffed badly.

Thats one way to play that option.
Yeah, I heard the announcer say that. I just wish he had seen the ball and made the play. Easy for me to say from my couch, I know.

29 seasons and counting. 40 or even 50 now feels very attainable if the FO does not undergo significate changes. Sigh. Where have you gone Schramm, Brandt and Landry and Jimmy Johnson? Where oh where have you gone?

Everyone should be celebrating this loss. A win would have destroyed our draft and likely saved McCarthy's job.
Destroyed our draft?
Come on

As it stands, a win would have left us 0-2 spots lower.
