Divisional Round Playoff Chatter | Cowboys vs Packers | 1/11/2015

DL doesn't matter?

I meant on offense.

 

[Cowboysrock55]

With the line in place, you're just a new QB away.

Our offense would basically be set up perfectly for a new QB. Great running game, great protection, elite WR... QBs aren't easy to find but they are a lot easier to find when you have all the other pieces in place. Especially if we are able to finish rebuilding this defense in the offseason.

 

[Tony D]

Generally speaking...we were up by 8.

Not really. 8 points is a one possession game. 10 isn't. Big difference.

 

[Cowboysrock55]

Marinelli is taking the Bucs DC job.

Do the Bucs even have an opening?

It's been rumored for months. Reuniting with Lovie.

How do we let Marinelli go?

Maybe Garrett isn't coming back as well?

Just heard Cowboys defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli is expected to become the defensive coordinator in Tampa.

Technically none of the coaches are under contract as of now, so they're all free to leave if they want.

His contract is up. He loves Lovie Smith.

Ooooo, more threats from asshole mods who threaten to ban anybody who says anything they don't agree with or like. Fuck you. You want to ban me? Fine. Do it and be damned.

Generally speaking. To go the other way, we could have a 3 possession lead and game's not in the bag.

Point is that we're not a team that is proficient with playing and maintaining a lead.

It cursed us again today.

As much as it pains me after a season like this, what happens this offseason seems less important to me cause I feel like the window in now closed. Witten's play will continue to decline, Romo is older and one average hit from being lost in any game for the season, Murray will probably be resigned and regress as most 2k yard backs do and the D was never better than average.

I think the D can get better if we make some smart decisions in the draft and keep Marinelli. On offense we have the OL and WR's. But I do agree it'll be tough for DM to duplicate this season in terms of production and staying healthy all year. Same with Tony, another year older and unlikely he repeats his TD/INT ratio again.

At least we still have Monte...RIP 2015

That's not my question. Is there any indication the Bucs will fire Leslie Frazier, their defensive coordinator. If the Bucs had Marinelli in the bag you would have thought they would have fired Frazier by now.

It's been a while since we had one of these...

Jerry better open up the checkbook. I doubt you can find another DC who can get more out of our mediocrities.

Difference is Marinelli is one of the best DCs in the league and in demand...Garrett, no so much.
