Pump the brakes- dem boyz lost to the best 0-2 team in the NFL, you’ll still get a wild card this year… But they were destroyed two games in a row, I really do not see them getting back on track. They were never on track. They beat a terrible Browns team that just lost to a previously winless NYG team. They weren't that good last year and lost tons in the offseason. All we've done is watch Jerry put ourselves in financial position to be unable to recover anytime soon. Should have started planning for a Dak replacement 3-4 years ago and you could have had Henry or Barkley this offseason, added OL help, kept the DL and secondary pieces you had, and you could have had hope for the future. As of now, we don't have a present or future. Drafting Mazi in the 1st round last year didn't help either. You have to get contributions from your first rounder. Life can only be understood backwards, is that the same is hindsight is 20 / 20 ?

Kamper I got a bad feeling about this season. It could be so bad I start agreeing with patriot.

You do realize Dak Prescott is the only QB on a Super Bowl contending team who is playing without a run game and without a defense that can stop the run... I do realize that. I also see the highest paid player in the NFL (let that sink in) who can't elevate his play or his offense. He repeatedly throws behind receivers, even two weeks in a row misfiring on passes to Zeke in the flat, easy passes for an NFL quarterback. His stats often look good on paper because he pads them after the game is out of reach and the opposing team begins playing softer, prevent defense like last year's Green Bay playoff game and yesterday's game. Dallas had 6 points after three quarters yesterday. I don't doubt his effort, we have watched him since 2016 and we know what he is, a little above average qb that needs a lot of talent around him to be successful. And he wilts in big games and playoff games. His thousand yard stare is his famous playoff face. Jerry was insane giving him that big contract. He should have let this year play out. Micah must be the easiest player in the NFL for a good team to scheme out of the game. He disappears frequently. Generational player, lol. And next year Jerry will make him the highest paid defensive player, what a joke. McCarthy's offense is stale. Where is the motion? Why can't he scheme players open? It's frustrating, on paper Dallas has a few really good players, they just are not playing like it right now.

He is highest paid now, but as new QBs re-signed, he will get bumped down. His previous contract he was the highest paid as well, but before he signed this new one he was bumped down to #10. That is how the NFL QB contracts are working these days. Its goofy how it works, it is messed up.

Kamper I got a bad feeling about this season. It could be so bad I start agreeing with patriot. The feeling is mutual, I misjudged how good the D would be, I thought if they could play great defense they would have a really good team, so much for those thoughts. Patriot is right about a lot of things, I wish he would not keep rubbing it in our faces LOL.

To me its starting to look like a talent problem. And the draft from 2 years ago hasn't helped.

This team gets physically manhandled by every good team it plays. This starts with the draft ,GM and coaches. This isn't a new problem. Now with bad contracts and bad drafts its not going to change on the field. But business is good for the Jones . But after the last 29 years as a fan I care about actually winning something. I could care less about how much the Cowboys are worth.

Except that they aren’t a Super Bowl contender. They are a one and done playoff contender at best. You would think the faithful would eventually get the year that proves this wrong. It hasn’t happened in eons. To think they could have gotten Derrick Henry. Zeke had 6 yards on 3 carry’s. Long was 4 yds. Dallas rushing was 51yds.
