OK honestly do you really think there is much difference in the cowboys franchise and the Commanders?

2 meddling owners, 2 patchwork teams, 2 hall of fame coaches, and many years of bad results.

I think the skins are on the right track in year 2 of gibbs, the boys took the snyder buy free agent route.

But our "meddling" owner got us three SB victories. Snyder has done nothing but take a playoff team, and make it a perinnial loser.

I agree that the Skins are on the "right track". But I think it'll take a while to get there. Gibbs can build a winner.....but will Snyder be patient enough to let it happen?

We did buy some key free agents....but we coupled that with a great draft. All of our draft picks made the team as well as a number of UDFAs. All, except for Beriault (who's on IR), are expected to make significant contributions.

20% of our team is made up of rookies. We have even more second year players. In other words, we're very young and talented, we're building.... not plugging. That's the difference in what we're doing now, and what you all did the past five years or so....you gave up picks for FAs......We haven't.

I like the team you have this year. I think your defense is outstanding. But I think we'll be much better than you at the end of the season.

Yes, I think there is a huge difference between the 2 teams as far as the direction they are going.

For the last 3 or 4 years you have traded away draft picks for marginal players and even great players. Some are no longer on your team and more soon won't be as you have enterred an area we have experience with. It's called Salary Cap hell.

In the next couple of years you are going to lose som high priced players and you won't have any young players from the Drafts to replace them.

Your owner foolishly has believed that he could buy a Championship. It has never worked in the NFL and isn't likely to work.

You have some talent on your team...for now. Your window for this talent to get you somewhere is rapidly closing.

By all means shut your eyes to it if you wish.

I get so tired of hearing this from non Commanders fans.

Who will we lose? All the high priced free agents get cut year after year, so we have been taking our cap hits.

We have youth on the oline, dline, secondary, reciever, rb, etc, etc.

Our free agents are going and going. there will be no purge. And the new agreement with the players union just leaves it as a free for all.

What do the Cowboys have? Old QB, Old Receivers, Old O-Line.

So where is your logic?

Cowboys at best are in the same boat.

Well your owner got lucky. He got handed a boatload of draft picks, and hall of famers at 3 key positions.

NOW, the boys have a bunch of has beens or could of beens at reciever and QB. A potential GREAT at RB, and an old o-line.

I am not sure why you think you'll be so much better at years end.

Dallas has alot of young talent and we arent in dissaray as Washington is.

Luck or not, you are still looking up at FATHER Dallas and our 5 SB championships and our greatest franchise in NFL history

And a very young defense. We have backup plans for our vets (allen Rivera) in peterman and maybe gurode, although I'm not too sure on him. 33 is not old by qb standards. Our recievers are old, I'll give you that.

Who is number 2 in the league in receiving.

You can hate, but use facts please.

We have an inept QB. Our line is better than you portray, but our QB is so bad we cannot stop 8+ in the box.

There is no dissaray here except what your media claims. No more disarray than Jerry Jones provides.

Don't hate....

I read somewhere that they have like 90 million invested in less than 25 players, somewhere in the range.

Lavar gets cut next year, that drops us 10 mill alone.

There is no mass exodus next year, just lavar and a few scrubs.

Lavar hasn't done anything for us.

Because of 2 long, lucky pass plays, Moss is suddenly great? There are 20 WRs I can think of moff the top of my head who I would take over him.

And your overrated safety is better at shooting people than he is at coverage (not saying much), you have a bonofied QB controversy (and both suck), your owner is the biggest idiot to ever grace an NFL franchise, and your coach has lost it.

Dissaray abounds.

Cowboys at best are in the same boat.
Brunnell, Samuels, and Arrington would be my first guesses.

Tell me about what you'll do in the 1st round of next year's draft? Oh yeah, you don't have one.

You spent a 2nd round pick to acquire Brunnell who was going to be released anyway.

But, you're good with this right?

As for the stupid crack about non Commanders fans, just because you are fan of the team doesn't mean you know squat about it.

I met a guy who was a Skins fan who told me your mascot comes from a species of peanut, not an Indian. But because he's a Skins fan he knows more than me right?

Don't bank on it kid.

You gave up draft picks for players. Some of them players you haven't even kept. It's foolish.

Someone doesnt understand cap economics.

Just because you cut Lavar doesnt mean you dont have to pay him :rolleyes:

Hate Hate Hate.

Our safety is as good as Roy. We have a QB controversy and they both suck is true. Our owner is no different than Jerry jones, and our coach is no different than the tuna.

Don't hate just because ya lost.

That still puts you roughly 20 million over the cap

:lmao:

What an idiot. You will have to cut either Samuels or Portis as well, and likely Shawn Springs.
