Whose killing us?

Did you realize that the Cowboys have had the least amount of offensive possessions this season? What good is it to have a top 5 quarterback, great receivers and a decent running game if they don't have enough possessions to get going?

There's no offense in the NFL who's going to score tds every possession, so how does it help when the defense get tds scored on them damn near every possession and your offense is sitting on the sidelines most of the game?
A decent running game?
Where?
 
This image below seemed appropriate for the thread title. I'm sorry I always think in a "Seinfeld"-style warped dystopian mindset response system from watching the show too much. The answer to the question is "everybody is responsible for this decades long mess. they cumulatively kill us so guess us all".

Here are the guys not living up to their huge contracts. Regardless of whose coaching, you still have to win your battles and these guys just aren't. This matters bc the team decided to invest significant cap resources into them, and in the case of Q, draft capitol on top of it.

Deron Bland currently on a 92M contract which matches his 92nd ranking among CBs. Pure trash. He been the guy other teams pick on. He needs to get benched and figure out his footing issues. PFF score 45.3
Jake Ferguson our 50M dollar TE is currently the 75th ranked TE in the NFL with a PFF score of 49.0. One could make the case that Dallas would be 3-2 without him.
Quinnen Williams currently on a 105M contract and ranked 74th among interior defenders. PFF score 57.2. He's playing on par with former cowboy Maliek Collins of Cleveland who would have been a whole lot cheaper.

Great post, but the only problem is, all of the people you've mentioned aren't currently ahead of Dak according to the rankings in that quarterback position.

You also forgot to list their personal rankings in that specific position. Once again, great informative post. Can you get those rankings to me whenever possible?

One last thing.... Dak is ranked where he is despite the Cowboys having the fewest amount of offensive possessions in the league.
If the top suck?? So will everything below it.

Tattletale. IMHO, you're the worst kind of poster pointing the finger at players that don't measure up to your standards as if we all don't already know this. You're as annoying as Salacious B. Crumb. Have the Star Wars fans here explain that too you.
 
Man, look up Gervon Dexter and Dexter Lawrence pff grades…..two tackles we could have traded for instead of Q…..both are like top 5 DT (I think Dexy is #1).and we gave up waaaay more than was given for either. It’s sickening dude.
Lol,
Lawrence wasn't even being considered for trade until the contract dispute during the offseason. Not that it would have been considered as in division trade of a player his caliber by the Giants.
Dexter had a PFF of 57 last year and has been just above average his entire career and was looked at as an underachiever in Chicago.
But hey, everyone could be a top GM if they had the luxury of hindsight!

No ****…..all I’m saying is that, as it turned out……we ENDED UP trading for the worst performing out of the three…..and that is what is sickening…..just our luck…..guy.
 
Last year after being traded to Dallas Williams had a PFF of 89.9, a run defense grade of 91 and 32 pressures.
Difference is he's not getting much help and teams are able to focus their protections on him!
Lawrence or Dexter or prime Aaron Donald would be having the same issues currently!
 
To be honest, without Dak, this team is 0-5.

We can clown him for a lot but don’t get it twisted. Without him the Jets are picking firs if this guy actually used the immense wt overall ? why don't you just watch him play Under Pressure? Good Lord,

To be honest, without Dak, this team is 0-5.

We can clown him for a lot but don’t get it twisted. Without him the Jets are picking first overall next April.
Seriously, do you watch this guy play Under Pressure? Because if we had a quarterback, that would throw-in the 10 to 20 yd range, into tight windows, we would be 5 -0 right now, instead of a guy that just folds his tent. and dinks a 2 yd pass out there. Then, trots to the bench on 4th and 5. and laughs about it while sitting there.
With all this guy's protection and weapons? I'm no huge Tony Romo fan, but if you gave Tony this offense, we would be beating teams 50 to 32 right now.

This guy's first half performance against Tampa was absolute garbage. The same as he always produces when the pressure's on.
 
Jerry isn't missing tackles and bouncing balls off his hands. This is a player thread. If you want to get into the front office and coaching staff, I have a much longer list.
How do you account for 30 years, no NFC title game, definitely no super bowls? I guess all those GREAT players through the years, just didn't get it done, while the Eagles have lapped us several times, along with a ton of teams.

Sorry, but "Whose" is possessive.

With all due respect, there isn't a quarterback in the NFL who would have this team at 5-0 with a 32nd ranked defense on the other side of the ball. Stop it.... ive heard of over-exaggerating, but this is over-exaggerating on steroids.

So no.... Romo would not have us at 5-0 either....

On another note, are you trying to say that Dak doesn't make tight window passes? Im not calling you a liar, but according to recorded production, something isn't lining up with what you've stated.

Again, im not calling you a liar, but.... your words aren't quite accurate according to real life numbers.
