Gallup is WR #3 at best. He ain't doing shyt but be sidelined with another injury

We're 20 mill now with cap space but we ain't getting Wagner. They'll humiliate him by offering 4mill for 2 years or some dumb shyt. We ain't shyt and will never be shyt again until hopefully the next regime comes along in a couple seasons and we get a new philosophy and QB

Gallup is much more than a #3....if he didn't tear his ACL we wouldn't be able to afford his services due to the avalanche of offers he would have gotten.

Cedric Wilson is a #3, Bruce Butler is a #3, Noah Brown is a #3.

Jerry was making dumb decisions and deals back in the mid 90’s impregnating side pieces and paying them hush money deals…and THAT got away from him.

so it’s no surprise he’s doing it with the team as well…these deals have hampered us, but since the GM owns the team, he NEVER has to learn, never has to get better because there’s no chance of getting fired.

He never feels heat or pressure. That’s why they can sign bad deal after bad deal…they can misevaluate players AND coaches…nobody pays a price for any of it…then they turn around with the highest profits of any franchise and that’s supposed to prove they know what they’re doing.

Dak would’ve gotten another GM fired, especially after what happened this season with THAT salary/deal…they keep they underproducing DE that is a hell of a run stopper:stopitslime: but can’t do what his job description says: sack the QB…or hell, just be available. They stuck with and want to keep sticking by an unreliable pot head who can’t control himself…give away a 1st round WR (which is what we paid for him) for a dominos pizza and soda bc that’s what a 5th and 6th are worth (especially to THIS franchise) Jerry wants to be a “football genius” and he’s helped do great things for this game…just not signing, drafting, and releasing players and coaches.

This season will be a wash, and get us to a washed up and tired Sean Payton (who he’ll eventually meddle with) who won’t do much more…

This disease is even in the Dallas Cowboys media. I can barely listen to the team podcasts bc they NEVER talk about the real reasons this team never goes anywhere. It’s just bs after bs…maybe my guy Jesse Holly keeps it real but most suck the teet of Jones.

it’s annoying and doesn’t produce anything. They sucked us in last year and did it to us again…ish is annoying. Bottom bin FA bc we broke and a draft that will be laughable if they go WR first :heh: I just need to step back and not think about this team for a min but it’s hard to do that with such ineptitude running this franchise. I love this team but damn, the ownership makes it so difficult…

This team won, what 1, maybe 2 games without Dak, but somehow he's the problem for all that ails the Cowboys. If Dak was smart, he'd waive his no trade clause and ask to get traded to a contender. Let the fanbase blame someone else for its failures.

Been looking at contract #'s. I'm starting to think @duckbutta got a point about Zeke and the amount of blame he deserves.

I remember when Zeke got his new contract all the running backs around the league were kekeing, sending him congratulatory tweets because he "reset the market" for them. They were all licking their chops for their upcoming deals.

Well, 3 years later his contract is still a huge outlier amongst running backs. Elite backs that got deals after him did not come close to the guaranteed money and years that he got.

The front office got worked over by Zeke and his agent. The restructures have compounded the issue. He might not deserve as much blame as Dak (this is obviously where I disagree with duck) but he is still a huge anchor on this team that I have not fully acknowledged. He also seems to have developed some untouchable status within the organization which is perplexing to me.

He’s a washed 20M cap hit. Whatever he did last offseason, he better do it again. He needs to recommit himself to getting healthy and in shape to minimize his washedness as much as possible. I am counting down the days until he’s gone. I’m willing to take the 11M hit and just do it next year.

Nikka hes the mf Qb of the team:gucci:


He makes the most money on the roster :gucci:


He influences Wins and Losses more than anyone on the team :gucci:


Why the fukk wouldnt we talk about him :gucci:

Cause there is actual functional problems with the cowboys football team that have nothing to do with Dak.

If you trade Dak for whoever you think is better, who does that keep Zeke from running for 1.8 yards a carry and not even running for 60 yards a game half the season?

If you trade Dak for whoever you think is better, how does that keep Anthony Brown from getting 100 yards worth of penalties in a game and just being trash in general ?

If you trade Dak for whoever you think is better, how does that keep our center and guard from getting pushed backwards 2 yards every other play ?

If you trade Dak for whoever you think is better, how does that keep our kicker from missing critical field goals and extra points ?

If you trade Dak for whoever you think is better, how does that keep our defensive line from being off sided and gifting the other team multiple 1st downs ?

I need it explained to me how swapping out qb's fixing all of this for the cowboys? Or how the qb is so good this stuff is going to happen anyway but instead of it leading to losses it will lead to wins?

And influencing wins and losses isn't a final outcome statistic. Dak influenced a win against Tampa cause we had the lead late in the game. Did we win that game? Nope cause the defense buckled. So you telling me it's Dak Prescott fault that the defense couldn't keep the Bucs out of field goal range? Cause I saw Washington keep them out of field goal range a lot so I know it can be done. I saw the Saints do it for a whole game so I know it can be done. So explain to me how it's Dak fault we didn't do it, since it most certainly isn't impossible to do, on the account of a team we beat twice being able to do it.

Zeke alone causes to many functional football problems for this offense that it is just going to be hamstring until he leaves. Defensive ends just flying up the field every time they see him in the backfield cause they know aint no way his trash is going to run outside so no reason to even think about contain. Same thing with all the corner and safety blitzes we see off the edge, cause they know damn well Zeke is not going to get outside of those blitzes and get any yards. Same reason why teams can drop 6 or 7 in coverage against us cause they know all they got to do is run forward 6 steps to meet zeke in the hole and its a 2 yard gain, and that there is absolutely no reason to even remotely cover him in the flats cause he is so slow every linebacker in football can close the gap on him before he is 1 yard beyond the line of scrimmage and the next time he makes a defender miss coming out the flats will be the first time he's done it in 2 years. At the same time he is causing all of these real functional football problems, he is being paid top 3 money at his position and his dead money hit is the highest of any running back EVER. nikka dead money hit so high you'd think he a QB. But somehow this is all Dak and Toddler fault. I'm shocked...SHOCKED...that our offense is as good as it is, when we trotting out a running back for over half the game that can't run outside, can't run up the middle, can make anyone miss, and can't make any explosive plays. Toddler better be in Jerry offense asking for a raise or at least an insurance policy for this Zeke sized anchor around his neck.
