Random thought, we need to very seriously consider trading for Derrick Brown.

The Panthers are clearly open for business and I'd be more than happy to give them a 1 and 4, especially considering we're likely getting a 4th as a comp pick for Gregory, and maybe even another 6th or something for Wilson.

The conference is weak, Brady/Rodgers both look over the hill, the Rams offense is a mess, the 49ers are starting Garoppolo, the Vikings and Cousins are a disaster waiting to happen and the Giants are a huge fluke. It's not a stretch to say that the conference could come down to us and the Eagles, and that matchup could come down to us stopping their running game.

Enter Brown, who will shut shit down between the A gaps while adding a pocket collapsing force to our pass rush.

Adding a premier DT is the last piece needed for this to be a potentially all-time type defense, and Brown is a guy who could be a cornerstone for the next 6-8 years given that he's only in his third season.

They did it once but that was for a player at a glamor position needed to help the player at the most glamorous position.

I'd be shocked off my balls if they traded premium capital for an interior lineman, even though it could elevate this defense to the point where they might actually make a Super Bowl, and could even conceivably challenge an offense like Buffalo or Kansas City.

I think I am now officially into my post-menopausal phase in my Cowboys fandom.

Disinterest will be coming soon.
Not even a labored 5-point win over the Lions next week could make you menstruate again?

I realize the challenge is great with Dan Campbell with a week to prepare.

But this is not desperate stage like it was with Cooper. Goof Son ain’t doing shit.

Yea they should be desperate for a Super Bowl run but God knows they're happy to sit on their hands.

Brown is likely available and would complete the defense in many ways, while being a foundational piece for the future.

They could've had Miller for nothing but cap space but hey.

You can tell those 41-21 and 51-26 thrashings from last year weighed heavily on this man.
Most disappointing part of the loss is that, mainly because of the three 1st half short fields, didn’t allow the defense to shut down the Eagles ‘vaunted’ offense.

There’s no Sirianni screaming war cries if they win 10-6 with Hurts getting sacked 4 times and a pick or two.

ESPN was showing how one play wrecked the Cowboys defense. Same okay on the AJ Brown TD and a late game big gain

RPO pistol with AJ Brown in motion toward RB side. We are in man coverage and just too much trash for the DB to get through to cover AJ Brown. Parsons stays home because he’s responsible for the RPO action.

Eagles do something different if we were in zone, but I wonder if Parsons is able to blow up AJ Brown as he’s coming across the middle behind the LOS with an RPO — shouldn’t be pass interference.

Just stick to this game plan and Dak will flourish. Run the fucking ball. If it isn't working, figure out how to run the fucking ball. That's what we did tonight and it actually should have gotten us the win.

But who knows what the offensive calls will be when Dak comes back.
You watch the throws Allen and Mahomes make and you realize Dak isn't even in the same zip code.
