Its been the players for 10 years?
Has this team had a reliable pass rush the last 10 years?
How about a reliable safety?
change the scheme, they would still suck at getting pressure. idk about yall but do yall ever think about just blowing everything up? i mean everything.

Talent in certain areas doesn't make for a great team. The line is filled with nobodies.. the corners are good now, but have been atrocious for years and there hasn't been a good safety in Dallas since Woodson left. Not to mention the only pass rush we've had for eight years has been at the hands of Ware.. and the one season when Greg Ellis was gettin sacks after converting to LB.
I knew after that debacle we wouldn't make the field goal. It's sweet justice. We don't deserve to win after fukk ups like that.
I said on CZ last year they should've moved Ware and some other core pieces for picks. Granted alot of that was based on the disappointing ending but if they dont make the playoffs this year its time for wholesale changes. Anyone over 27 should be touchable. Matter of fact I'd keep Ware, Spencer the one that has to go, team is weak in the trenches. I'm not opposed to a switch to the 4-3 if they can get the right personnel
i know you took some heat for that. i mean what's the point anymore if this season continues on this downward trend? lets say we finish 7-9 or worse, how do you sell this group of players and coaches again. wasn't this suppposed to be the year? it seems like every year we'll fix some pieces around the core but what if the core is the issue? i think we need to seriously considering blowing this thing up if they continue this pathetic route. sell your assets and rebuild from the ground up with young hungry players with swagger...screw this RKG nonsense.

Too many young pieces to blow it up.
On defense our mld's are set. Carter and Lee aer the future. Although Carter hasnt look as good as the first game where he was all over the place and jsut involves in every tackle and play. We need someone opposite of Ware at OLB.
Cornerback is solid. Safetys is where the upgrade needs to be at both position.
On the line we can stansd for upgrade at the DE position. Moreso for depth. we rotate a lot on on the line especially at tackle and coleman is the only consistent one. Ratliff is good but needs a better backup.
On offense we just really need a better oline. We know what romo can do behind an even average oline, which he has not had this year. an average oline and we lead the division thus far. I prefer our fullback from last season over vickers.
We need a whole new coaching. I want a coach to come in and bring in his own stafrf. not keep one of these reject we already have
and a new owner. a whole new family. i'm tired of tryin to keep up with Jones

I agree, it's a soft team starting with the head coach. All around the league you see teams that take on the personality of their head coach. When you have a coach who's clueless, who makes the same mistakes over and over, that just cant seem to get right..you get a team that follows suite. And look at the contracts of some of these guys. All the money Miles makes to show up every other week, the money they dished out to Carr. All these high picks and money invested into the secondary and you have guys that cover

I also said we should kept Anthony Henry and repositioned him at Safety. He was a slow ballhawk secondary player but playibng safety can sometimes hide the liability of speed if the player is smart and Henry seemed like a smart player.
There is good young talent on this team, but when I say core I'm talking Romo, Witten, Ware, even guys like Austin.Those guys who have been here through 2-3 regimes. I'd throw in underachievers and never been's like Spears/Spencer too. Not to say that they're Bad football players but when you're taking someone 20th and 26th in the first round you should get more of a return on your investment.
I'm not a salary cap expert when it comes to football. I know Dallas got stripped of some space for this year and next. A lot of moves can be made to clear room up, but realistically around how much can the Cowboys have next year?
Draft/sign some help with the oline and one pass rusher to help Ware. Safety spot would be weak but a good pass rush and decent corners can help out with that. Time management, penalties, lack of creativity on offense can be improved with better coaching. Don't need to blow it up.

Why Ware or Witten? Sound like you just want to start the rebuild process.
Damn sure wouldnt get rid Ware. Our pass rush is horrible with him. what happens without him? We're so close. the problem isn't just on the field. players like witten and ware i want to be a cowboy for life.

that's exactly what we're talking about. if we're not going to do shyt with this core group of underachievers then is it better to trade them for picks or waste the next 3-4 seasons with more .500 football? this offseason we lose felix, jenkins, and possibly spencer. that's 3 more holes to close with a bad salary cap. then u got fools like scandrick, austin, and free being paid handsomely for the next few seasons. we are stuck btw a rock and a hard place.
