But Amari wasn't great on road games and he didn't get the COVID shot.

Something just crossed my mind and it might be a long shot, but it might not.

I wonder if the Jones' sent Amari to Cleveland as a "F you", and took a 5th when they very easily could have gotten a better deal from a team with a better QB.

Gotta go see how many #88s they've sold this season...

I like how Jason Peters isn't ready, and that's the excuse that he's not practicing. He needs to ramp up since he didn't have a training camp.

By the way, whose fault is it that he didn't have a training camp? He's been available since March...

But in the meantime we didn't bother to have a swing tackle all that time because reasons.

We all knew he would need time, guess we forgot to tell Stephen .

The point is he wouldn't need time and would be ready right now if we signed him at any time prior to training camp. Why didn't we? Even before Tyron got hurt we badly needed a swing tackle and it was painfully obvious to everyone except the clowns that run the team.

They stupidly thought Ball was that Guy .

The worst thing that happened to the Cowboys this offseason was not Amari Cooper being traded away for a 5ht round pick. It was Kellen Moore returning as OC after other teams saw through his BS and passed on him as their HC.

I would be a lot more understanding of the team's offseason moves if the Cowboys had a Shannahan or McVay type of play caller....because those guys have proven that they can plug and play and their systems still work.

Kellen Moore on the other hand is completely incapable of coaching around injuries and talent shortages. Here we are roughly 9 games after that Broncos game and this big-toothed SOB still hasn't figured out how to counter zone defenses. :lol :doh

WTF is this Mojo Moment nonsense? I have been seeing it through all of TC.
It's gimmicky stuff that probably does no good. You're in the middle of trying to get guys to run plays and suddenly "MOJO MOMENT!" we are doing something different, hurry up and execute it.

Seems like more of a distraction to a practice than anything. You imagine you're in the train of thought doing something and a child interrupts you every once in awhile. Totally throws your train of thought off and you can't accomplish what you want to accomplish. But that's just my opinion.

Why do coaches do this gimmicky bullshit? What happened to just lining up and fucking playing football?

I think the thought process is to get guys ready for anything at any moment. But I think that's kind of silly. You're not going to be running your offense at the 30 yard line and then boom, you need to be ready for an onside kick. It's just not realistic and sort of fucks up the preparation you were doing. Just sounds like something that would be obnoxious more than helpful.

I think it's stupid as hell. It would be like running flood evacuation drills in the desert.
