2025 Random Cowboys Stuff Thread

To be clear I don't expect to make the playoffs, I'm just saying sometimes it's worked out

 

[Simpleton]

Osa is an interesting one because I think he's one of the better interior rushers in the league, not elite, but one of the better ones. He's just significantly undersized so he's not really a full 3-down guy, but interior pass rush is so important that you kind of have to overlook that.

But he's not good enough to be the lead guy on a DL who can be the focus of opposing game plans while still producing. That was Micah of course, but now it'll be Williams, whereas up to this point this year it's been Osa.

So Osa goes back to a complementary role where he's better suited and I think we'll start seeing better play out of him now that there's an actual elite centerpiece on the DL for him to play off of. He was really good against Arizona actually with some of the 5 down stuff, it was just hard to tell because QB's are able to hit their back foot and get the ball out in under 3 seconds against this secondary.

On paper, DT is fixed, but these big trades have a way of not working out for Dallas

Because of Jerry's deal with the devil in the late 80s?

Yeah, we all realize that it will never work out, but you've gotta keep asking yourself, "Am I not entertained?"

For you know in your heart you are, yet you are forever frustrated knowing that until Jerry is gone,1995 will be as good as it gets for a Cowboys fan.

I think we’re Gen X majority here. 1995 might be the best it gets for us period.

Speculation apparently is suicide. Not sure how true that is but someone told me they're talking about it on 105.3.

But I think the later story is that the cops were after him because and only after the girlfriend alerted them that he had left and she was afraid he might and it all, not that he was running from some accident or violation.
