What a disappointing night

[DandyDon52]

Uh he had one good run. He's not making the 53.

he should, but it seems the cowboys brain trust has already decided the order of RB's
1.pollard
2.dowdle
3.davis
4.doos

I dont think he gets many snaps or carries/passes in the season..... unless he gets big rac on some of the few he does get.

Fans love him, but evidently mike and jerry dont.

VERY SAD NEWS, BUT WHAT MAY BE MORE SAD IS THE PLAY OF #58

I see people saying this, but I wonder what you guys were expecting??
He isnt here to get sacks, it is to clog up the middle and help stop hurts on those qb sneaks.

The Announcers for the game were deplorable.

I think he does. Between what he did last night, the previous game, and the way he looked in TC, I think he should be able to make the squad.

 

[ErikWilliamsHeadSlap]

Deuce is on the 53 man roster. That is clear.

Mazi and Vaughn's play, plus Overshown's injury were the 3 biggest disappointments tonight

Thank you. I was going to post about Deuce.
Other than his 14 yard TD fantastic run. He was disappointing. He really did not do much. He had on other ok run. But everything else he was stuffed.
Same for his KO returns, he did not do much. I know he is not out there with the starters, but still show a little more than he did.

Though I still think he can be good at times, but no way is he the RB #2. Not at this point.

Mazi did nothing. Grier sucks. I don't know why they don't have a 4th QB to compete with him. Just another coaching staff / FO stupidity things.

 

[CowboyRoy]

The only disappointment was the injuries.its preseason with the practice squad.

Mazi looking terrible is equally as bad

I question if Davis makes the team. If Dowdle was not injured last season, Davis probably would have been on the PS. It all depends on the numbers game. Keep a 4th RB, 6th WR (which they usually do).

deuce had nowhere to run with the dline in the backfield.

deuce is a Stud. Oline matters. How many times do we have to go over this?

and dont make your zeke lie again about the oline.

Davis is a jag if that

What did you not comprehend about me saying he was not out there with the starters.
And there you go thinking you know it all, which you do not.
As well you can't stop with the Zeke stuff....and are you calling men a liar again?

You use double standards about the OL of other RB's vs. Zeke. As well, you harp on the OL, to set up excuses for later. I know it is coming.

You arent qualified to talk about running backs. You still havent figured out that Pollard is better than ZEke. LOL

And now you dont like Deuce? It almost gaurantees he will have a good career as a back.

Olines affect every back and every QB. At some point, maybe you will learn that.

Pollard and Zeke ran behind the same line and Pollard was just much better.

Are you using Oline as an excuse for your hero Zeke sucking at 3.8 ypc?

How did Pollard average 5.3 ypc behind the exact same line? DOH!!!!!

Would love to hear you explain away that one. LOL

 

[nyc-cowboy]

I'm sorry but with Parsons, Leighton and Clark I highly doubt that Overshown was going to be a key player. He look like he would be a really good rotational piece but Dallas isn't playing a ton of LBs.

That's not including guys at safety like Kearse filling in at LB.

I do agree the injury was the worst thing. Especially to a young guy with high upside and a promising rookie season.

I don't know if you can call Parsons a LB at this point, after LVE and Clark there is really nothing.

LVE, Clark and O would have been a nice rotation.

Cox and Harper are flashing still

....and people on here claim I am the angry one


Interesting seeing how you used the OL as an excuse to defend Deuce when pointed out that, outside of 2 long runs, he has averaged barely 2 YPC this preseason while Dowdle has averaged nearly 4 YPC outside of his long runs. Just saying.

More of laughing with excitement.

Harper maybe, but Cox...I dont think he got any meaningful snaps til the middle of the 4th quarter, kinda tells me where he's at.

 

[CouchCoach]

Be a real shame if Overshown is out for the season, Quinn had plans for him.

 

[Hadenough]

Still, Vaughn looks really good. I think we got a Sproles clone in him.

A poor man's Sproles. Vaughn does not have the speed of Sproles.

Horrible, had to turn the sound down.
That hags voice would hit intolerable levels.
