You could see this coming after Sunday night when the pathetic Giants scored 3 TD's and 7 of 7 on 3rd downs on their first 3 possessions. Cowboys with their 6-1 start are frauds. Probably win 1 or 2 more to get over the 8-8 hump, but that still may not be good enough for the playoffs especially with a 4-7 team leading the NFC South. Either way, this team wouldn't go far with this defense and Romo if they did get to January. All we accomplished was cementing Garrett as HC for a few more years and a much lower draft pick.
Fuck you very much for saying this, but I cannot disagree.

Richard Sherman is proof of what a sham the CB position is in terms of what teams look for.

It is not physical. It is mostly mental.

Yep. That NYG game told me everything I needed to know. Anyone who convinced themselves that it was simply 'TEH division road gamez are just hard and stuff!" was in denial about a bigger problem. That was a precursor of what we can expect on that side of the ball for the rest of the season. They won't lose out but it's getting more difficult to see the path to 10-6. Even if they make the playoffs what does it matter if they can't stop anyone?

Giving Dez $ will cripple this team.
Seriously.

And what are we going to get for our $14 million per year?

A great possession WR? The guy doesn't ever get much separation no matter what quality of DB is covering him. He relies on out jumping/sizing/muscling guys who are on him like his fucking shadow.

Seattle looks to be back.

Wagner is a huge part of their D and people forget that he wasn't around for a good chunk of our win against them.

How many still believe Philly is a sham team? I said I feared them more than anyone left on the Dallas schedule and I think today showed why.

You are barking up the wrong tree.

Most GMs would take Bryant as their number one WR in a heartbeat.

The problem is that he is a good player and in the retarded method we do things, we don't allow that player to do what he does, we build them up into superhuman and don't put them in positions to succeed.

Bryant can run slants and crossing routes. Ever see him do that with any frequency?

Answer the question before blabbing about how he "doesn't get separation".

WRs are like QBs.

There are a couple "elite" guys and bunch of others that are not yet will get that money because of the way things work.

It's good to see too. I hate SF and Philly. I'd take any of the playoff contenders in the NFC over those 2.

Division games are hard and stuff, especially on the road. Just ask Philly.

I respect Seattle's style. It is what I would want if I owned a team.

They play hard, they play smart and they are cheap...right now.

The only thing I hate about them now is Carroll, but I'll still take them any day over SF or Philly. GB is the only other viable contender I see in the NFC. Cards are pretenders and imo so is Detroit and obviously us and the NFC South winner.

I just can't wait for what the combo of Durant, Lee, and McClain will look like.

Wouldn't matter because there would be something else that sucks that ends up ruining that.

That is what happens with poor team building.
