You can make the case that -
- Hiring Parcells has been a complete bust - nothing has changed in the Win column
ummmmmmm, no. The win column has changed, and I know we havent won a playoff game yet but Parcells brought along Ireland who has put together two fantastic drafts. And for the first time in a long time I think we might be in the top 10 in the league in sacks, Parcells puts an emphasis on pass rush which for some reason teh idiots behind him ignored.
- Drafting Julius Jones was foolish - not to mention trading down and passing on some big backs.
Agree 100% Jones is not that great, he shows flashes but thats it. Now hes overcoached and looks worse than he did his rookie year
- Signing TO may be a the worst move the franchise has made since it passed on Moss
Too early too tell...it "may" be, but it also "may" be a move that leads to another Cowboys super bowl ring.
- Holding onto Greg Ellis all this time was a complete waste
This is just nonsense, regardless of how many sacks hes produced over the years (on some pretty terrible D-lines btw) hes still a valuable addition to the team who still goes out there and proves that fact every game. You can never have enough "pressure players"
- Drafting Roy Williams - a guy we all wish was better than he is - who has yet to take games over like he did at the "O" - a guy who is basically a ONE dimensional Football player - was a terrible move and was taken way too high.
You start with a good point but then take it too far. RW is not even close to being as good as people on these boards would like to think. I still contend that hes the 3rd best safety in his division, and the 7th or 8th best in the league. It was not however a terrible move to draft him, hes still a very good player and someone I would want on my team anyday.
- Jerry Jones since his last SB win is one of Pro Sports worst owners...his teams have stunk - the playoffs have evaporated and he had to pay thru the nose to get a REAL coach like BP in here....b/c he scared people off with Gailey & Campo - nobody wanted he job.
This is just stupid, Pro sports worst owner???? Gimme a break bro, the worst owners in sports are the owners in baseball who dont even attempt to field a competitive team just to make more money. The worst owners in sports are the Bidwells and Browns of the world. Jerry has learned over the years and has FINALLY stepped back and let the football people handle the football. This team is in fat better shape than its been in for about the last 10 years. Quality roster, great cap condition, young players locked up. I give credit to the man who saw somethign wasnt working and pinned it on himself, and then fixed the problem.
- Giving Vanderjagt a 3 million dollar bonus may be the siliest thing ever done
Again, just dumb, let the man miss some kicks that count before we start on this.
- Ware over Merriman is looking bad b/c now even the guy who took him said he lacks "mean" spirit - not good.
Ok, lets forget about Seau here....Ware is a beast, and does every aspect of the ROLB job very well and getting better at it all, all the time. Merriman can rush teh passer relentlessly, but dont ask him to cover someone or take on a lead block, shed it then make the tackle. Ware will be fine regardless of his spirit. Both are great players and arguing over the two is pure semantics
- Giving a 9 million Dollar Check to Marco Rivera is as bad as it's ever gotten
Ehhh, it was pretty bad...however in all fairness, we desperately needed OL help, we tried to get the better of the two, he didnt wanna come here. WE signed what was for years a great guard, how were we to know he would need back sugery?
- Drafting a LB and TE with our 1st two picks was borderline self sabotage and makes no sense when looking at the long run.
This is nonsensical as well. Carp is gonna be a very very good player for this team, Im thinking by week 6 or so the starting LBers for the nickel team are gonna be Burnett and Carp because of coverage skills. Like others have said, lets let Fasano show what he can do before calling his drafting self sabatoge
- Signing Drew Bledsow has caused nothing but headaches...
hahah, yeah, I hate Bledsoe with a passion, throw the freakin ball away jerk off, move around....something man, stop getting sacked all the time. But, again as others have stated, better than Carter and Vinny.
