I think a bunch of you talent evaluators should be working for the Cowboys, maybe then they could put a team together

If he is all that many of you are saying he is, Sark and UT won't let him go. They are the folks that know best...

What they gonna do, hog tie him lol.

Pay him

If they did that they would lose Manning, I really do not see that happening, I think this deal was made before Arch came to town, jmo.

Stark has to play Manning next year. The boosters and fans would go nuts if he didn't.

There's no smarter and less smart - these are all opinions about Quinn. The only opinion that mattered was Sark's - the rest of us speculate just to have something to talk about. My opinion, as always, is worth what you paid for it...

Respect that level of time in the game - there's certainly no substitute for experience. That said, do I think you need 40 years in the game to predict that Dak or Quinn are going to F up when we need them most? I don't think so. We've seen it time and time again. Quinn is an excellent and very talented college player. There's no disputing that. But he does always seem to have a knack for screwing up at the wrong time in big games.

To answer your question, I played high school, played strong side LB and ran all the defenses junior and senior year (took coach's call from the sideline and was given freedom to audible based on what I saw). I played college baseball - didn't have the speed for football at that level. What got my role as defensive leader on the football field in HS was intellect - certainly wasn't talent. I watched more film and studied more than most of the rest of our team combined. I was never going to run a 10-second 100 yard dash or bench 500 lbs. But it wasn't very hard to get a read on the fairly simplistic high school offensive game plans that we faced. And even though our offense mostly sucked, our defense gave up very few points. I had fun and that was what it was about for me. But I never wanted a lack of preparation to leave us in a bind in a game, and that's how I approached my role - overprepared and ready to counter anything I'd seen on tape (yes it was tape at the time). That's not competing at all with your experience, and I won't argue that. In a lot of ways, I value your opinion more than my own at times...I know I'm wrong about stuff...my wife makes sure I know that all the time :-)

Cowboys had 10 pro bowlers last year...more than any team in the NFL. It's not my opinion that Dak had a bunch of talent around him...it's a fact. Texas had a really strong OL, DL, secondary, and well above average offensive skill players. They won the battle in the trenches against every team this year except Georgia and their entire defense is incredibly stout. I think a majority of longhorn nation had doubts about Quinn and would have liked to see what Arch could do, but at this point we'll never know what Arch could have done with this particular longhorn roster except the couple games he got in against nothing-burger teams while Quinn was out. That's how life is - just time to move on.

Maybe we can all just be glad that McCarthy is out in Dallas and maybe we'll hire somebody who can start fixing things. Probably a pointless hope, but you gotta hold onto something other than Jerry moving on, because that's not happening.

I like Ewers and feel he did a really good job while he was here, he’s absolutely no Chris Simms, not even close! He does get dinged up and I think that he was never 100% after he got hurt against UTSA. That’s what made him immobile in the pocket. Manning will give teams something else to think about with his athletic ability and that can’t hurt. I never played QB but I did stay at a Holiday Inn! 😎🤘

I don't think he is chris simms, I think Arch may be

Major applewhite got screwed.
