2026 Random Cowboys Stuff Thread...

I mean, Carter seems to be doing just fine in basically the same system. I don't buy it's not a fit for Williams.
 
I want to stay away from children of former greats. They almost always bust.

Fuck those onions. In all seriousness, that's an awesome story, brother. Something you two will share forever. God damn, I have gotten sappy since I quit drinking. I don't know what's going on. I have turned into a fucking woman. Hug those you love because you never know when it might be your last chance;.

When my son was about 15 and my daughter 7, I took them to a meet the Cowboys signing thing. It was after the second SB win.It was about 10 degrees out. Waited outside for 30 minutes to get in.Neither kid complained.Got inside and they had some former players like Too tall and Novacek. Got Enmity a autograph and next was Moose. I had a moose figure from my recent Canada trip which he laughed at and signed. Might be a collectors item someday. The kids had a ball.

I totally agree. There are just a lot of overreactions going on right now in my opinion. New scheme means players are going to take time to get efficient and good at it. So someone see's a poor PFF grade from Williams and now they are overreacting like there is something awful about the scheme. Or something is wrong with Williams. And no this isn't your grandpa's 3-4 where the 3 down lineman are playing read and react. But yes it is asking the D-lineman to do more than just shoot a gap and try to make a play.

I did say almost. Of course there are going to be a few but for every 1 you name I can rattle off 5 to 10 others that didnt.

I mean I was mostly just joking. I don't hold it against a player if their parent was a great NFL player but I don't really hold it in high esteem either. I don't think it's so much a physical talent thing. But I do think some of these kids whose parents were professional athletes just don't have that Dog mentality in them. Marvin Harrison Jr. is just sort of another example of that. I just don't know that he really has that mentality of doing whatever it takes to succeed that his father probably had.
