Signed off of Arizona's practice squad onto our active roster, per Adam Schefter.

Interesting, when was the last time he played in a 4-3? AZ runs a 34 right?

Doesn't matter. It will take him about a week, if that, to adjust. Especially in our 4-3. A middle schooler could figure this out in a day.

Yeah, we totally should have grabbed someone like Patrick Willis to fill this spot. Stupid cowboys

i wouldnt expect you to understand, the board needs more snippy, but lets put it in something you can understand. Your season is over, i dont care what you think, ponder, have stats on, NOR what past memories you have, we arent winning the SB, we arent in the hunt and we are probably not even considering the playoffs, unless the other teams force us into it, which i doubt. So what does signing Lemon offer you INSTEAD of putting the effort into a player that is worth it OR dare i say, saving the money for other issues.

Is Lemon going to give us that boost into the playoffs, No,

Is he the piece missing from this glorified SB run we are on? No

Is he going to be the future worht investing in? No


So what is the point to signing him and putting effort into a player we already know about who doesnt play in our scheme?

This makes no sense. It's the middle of the season. Superstars in the making are not just hanging out on the street corner.

At least give a list of specific players that you believe should have been signed.

Other posters already beat you to the punch for the First Die-Hard to Bail Prematurely award, SS. We've got good posters here who have already changed their avatars for other teams, so you're a bit behind the bailing vanguard. This post is a good effort on that front, though, fwiw.

You guys might well end up being right and the season will turn out to be a disappointment. I can definitely see that happening the way things look right now. It's also possible that things get righted as the team gets healthy and we make a run of it. Either way, I intend to enjoy the next 6 games as much as I possibly can and will hope we can get positioning for a post-season berth. Not going to cash it in in week 11 just because of other fans' depressing predictions, anyway.

Go Cowboys, right?

I would actually like to see Church moved up and use Heath and Wilcox as safeties. Church doesn't have the range to cover passes and IMO he could be better used as a WLB.

Why is it as soon as someone disagrees or sees something different you have to assume they dont like the team?

Can i get an answer to that?

Well sir because you disagree or have a better idea, you must not like the team anymore. According to many here. But you are right, Church needs to be moved, that would at least try to figure out where hes best suited.

I don't think for a second you don't like the team, so that's a tough question to answer.

I just think you've bailed on the season prematurely, and it's pretty hard to argue you have not when you read the post that I replied to. You're the Cowboy fan on the Cowboys board telling other die-hard fans that their season is over, after all. How exactly does that make you the victim in this exchange again?

Personally I don't get this move. And I would agree with those who wonder what the point is of signing a guy who has been released twice and is now playing in a different scheme.

Cam Lawrence is sitting on the sidelines waiting for an opportunity to prove his worth. Why not give him a shot at either demonstrating that he is a solid backup, or JAG? Lately, I think they churn the roster just for the sake of churning.

I'm sure Cam will get his chance to play. How ever you look at it you can't dress only 5 lbers on sunday.

Well you have to factor in we have two games in four days. Lawrence and bosworth and maybe Wilber will play ahead of lemon I bet, but we have to have guys here to dress and at the minimum play special teams.
