Why not give the starters some work?

We??? The Cowboys Coaching staff could not care less about our fans evaluating players during preseason games.

If you think the Cowboys Coaches feel like they are going to make decisions on the 53 man roster without evaluating players you are naive.

A majority of legit cowboys fan could have projected 90% of this roster even before camp started. Camp and preseason games basically decide the last 5 roster spots and who makes the practice squad.
When I say we, I have been following my team since I started walking in 1972. I've seen a ton of football. When your as vested in a team as I have been, for so long, damn straight IT IS WE. I'm a die hard thru and thru. Roger the Dodger hooked me.
 
Dak and company haven’t played together since early last season, he has a new number two receiver and a new offensive system. Why on earth are they sitting these guys instead of getting them acclimated?

Dak isn’t Troy Aikman coming off another Super Bowl win for gods sake. The idiocy of this team is unreal.

This team won’t win 9 games it’s that bad.

I mean, it's a good idea since it's a new offense and all.
 
Im sick of worrying or arguing or debating this....its not going to change and it just doesnt matter ....we're going to get laughed off the field in Philly

Always cracks me up when someone jumps on someone for saying we on here....its dumb, we are fans, its our team

Because the preseason is beneath the mighty Cowboys.
 
I love how people act like these players are risking their lives by playing one quarter, or even a couple of series, of a preseason game.

Apparently our entire team is going to be wiped out by about game five if the game is as dangerous as many think. I mean that's 20 whole quarters of football. No way we have anyone left to finish the season.

The last few years Dak and the starters wouldn't play one down in pre-season. Since this has been with different coaches I think it's Jerry's decision. Worried about injury?

Then I look and saw players like Brady and Rogers playing in pre-season and just chuckle that super bowl QBs get pre-season work and a playoff choking QB is above all that.

30 years of jerry thinking, um yeah.
 
Preseason is to determine your bottom 5-8 spots on your roster. It has very little to do with the starters.

I understand some fans may not like it, but that is what it is for.
Yeah that loser Brady doesn't know anything. I chuckle when I saw that 40+ year old vet out there in pre-season but golden boy slak who has won nothing is too good to play in pre-season...lol.
 
Some coaches are idiots. Some idiots agree with idiot coaches. That's how we got here.
Russell Wilson played in the 2024 preseason for the Pittsburgh Steelers against Buffalo. Glad our rookie coach isn't an idiot like Mike Tomlin, yeah he's only got a 1-1 record in super bowls so he's an idiot right.

You really think that Brian Schottenheimer is a better head coach as a rookie mind you than Mike Tomlin?
 
I'm too lazy to check, but after Romo broke his back in 2016 preseason, has our starting(while under a big contract) QB played in PS?
could see Dak still playing in 17, but can't recall if he played in PS after getting his 2nd deal.

What I would want to see is Milton getting the entire game 3. But I have a feeling he's safe even if he throws 5 INTs.

perhaps if you didn't have a full new coaching staff, new scheme. but we do. and you can't deny they all look way off.

The preseason is an opportunity to be a little more ready and prepared for Week 1.

Instead of using Week 1 to knock of the rust most teams use the preseason.

It might not seem like much, but real game action is always beneficial.

If you’re not using every available opportunity to get better, be prepared, and get ready then you’re not serious about winning.

You can be invested all you want, but they don't care if you think you have not seen enough to evaluate a player.
 
I don't care what players that won't make the team look like.
but we have no idea what starters would look like. and you can't deny that our back ups, playing against other teams back up look like a high school team. and its not like the players who played in the 4th quarter that won't be on the team were playing the entire game. we started with actual back ups and some expected to be starters and contributors and they look just as awful. people say we are not game planning, well its not as if the other team is game planning. they just come out and execute the plays they practiced and we don't look like we can execute at all. 176 yards total offense. that's pathetic. scoring 9 offensive points through first 3 quarters in two games is pathtic. the lone TD was a defensive TD in first 3 quarters. that's pathetic.

It does not matter what we think. The coaches see these players everyday. They see their work ethic, they know if they comprehend their assignments.

Half our fans think Mazi should be cut. Guess what, he is still a starter.

It's funny to me that fans think they have a role in evaluating and who makes the team.
