What do you think the reason The Cowboys are under-performing again...All of this affects fantasy football value.Now the kicker is feeling all the pressure as well.
No one has EVER blamed Jerry for the Cowboys lack of success over the last 15 years. This is a new idea, definitely needed a thread..
1. He's also got 3 SB rings as an owner.2. He's won 2 out of 3 division titles, hardly an idiot.3. I don't know how accurate that is, how do you know how good he thinks he is?4. True5. W/e, thanks bud.1. Jerry Jones2. Idiot Coach3. Romo isn't as good as he thinks he is4. No flow or rhythm for the RBs 5. The fan base deserves this winless team
People do it to drive people like you crazy.
Yes. Wade is a complete pushover. Cower for president 2011HurryUpSundays said:
They are very talented but they lack that "eye of the tiger" type of attitude. They tend to play soft too much and have that attitude where they should win the game just by showing up. They need to spend more time blocking and tackling and less time doing interviews and reading the paper at how awesome they are.HurryUpSundays said:
Jerry Jones has three Super Bowl rings. The first two were with Jimmy Johnson as head coach.... when Johnson started getting credit for the Championships he was no longer the coach. Switzer came in and won one Super Bowl with the roster Johnson built. Last season was the first season since the Johnson roster that the Cowboys have won a playoff game. As long as the players know that the real boss is Jones, how are they ever going to respect the coaches?Team Smokin said:Jerry Jones ego!The culture of the Cowboys is one of dysfunction and too much pressure put on them by an egomaniac GM/Owner.

Jason Garrett is actually alot better than people give him credit for. During the Bears game there were four instances in the game that Romo had time in the pocket, and missed the open reciever with errant passes. These 4 plays cost the Cowboys 21 points. So if the Cowboys had converted on these and scored 38 I doubt Garrett recieves the needless criticism. Love how everyone is suddenly so dialed into Dallas and an expert on why their struggling.The_Underachiever said:
Congrats for reciting the desperate mantra of every overrated 0-2 team. The Cowboys are a perfect example of the sum of the parts being greater than the whole because they have no leadership from the top right on down through the head coach and the incompetent play-calling of the already-anointed offensive coordinator. I also think that if Tony Romo weren't as "cute" in front of the cameras and able to make highlights every so often with desperate, scrambling plays, there'd be a lot more talk about his flaws and less of a tendency to flatter him with too much undeserved flattery.
And so were the 49ers hows that working out?
Wrong. If receivers are dropping passes, then that's all the more reason to use a solid run game, right? Garrett's in love with the pass, run be damned. The only comparable play-caller is Andy Reid, but he at least has the excuse of having a non-elite running game.
Equally poorly. You're not helping yourself.
First year for us, I wasn't drinking any Kool-Aid. Glad to see you put the Niners on the same level as the Cowboys though.
Thanks for your insightful views. Way to add something to the discussion.
Both teams are superior talented when compared to their division counterparts, although NFC East >>>>NFC WestFirst year for us, I wasn't drinking any Kool-Aid. Glad to see you put the Niners on the same level as the Cowboys though.
Just pointing out that Dallas is not the only team to not meet preseason hype. Keep up.
I agree that Garrett should run more but if the run is not working then why try to fit a square peg into a round hole? Also Garrett should not be faulted for instance with Witten out he could not run his double TE package on a key 3rd down so he calls for a 3 wide and has Choice run a flare. A brillant playcall because Briggs has to cover flats and has a long distance to cover. Romo throws behind Choice and the Cowboys are forced to kick a FG which they miss. If Romo hits Choice in stride its a td or even if throws a catchable ball its a first. Look at this week, Houston is great at stopping the run and their pass defense is putrid. What would you do? Do you try to pound the ball feebly or do you shred their pass coverage, hell McNabb and his UFL grade recievers got 400+ recieving yards.
No check 2-3 posts above, I gave my opinion.Sorry next time ill add numbers.
A lot more talk about his flaws? A tendency to flatter him? Who on earth flatters him? The only reason I'm rooting for Romo is because of the irrational, across-the-board hatred for him. He's one of the most productive quarterbacks in the league and gets blamed for virtually everything that goes wrong for the Cowboys. He actually played very well in the playoffs last year, but is still constantly murdered as not being a "leader" and unable to win big games. Give me a break. Peyton has him killed for horrible performances in big games and Romo will never catch him.
Is there where you talk about the playoff games where Manning struggled and act like the playoff games where he played really well, like his dismantling of the number 1 defense in the NFL in last year's AFC title game, never happened?Also, I am not a Romo basher.
Indy is in the SB discussion every year because of Peyton. He's taken them to 3 Super Bowls, won 1 (he was MVP) and has 4 season MVPs. Are you freakin' kidding me?I think he's probably the best QB to ever play the game.
The point, as I would assume would be obvious, isn't that Romo is as good as Peyton Manning. The point is that players get reputations, and regardless of how they perform, either their good plays are heralded while their bad plays get swept under the rug, or the opposite happens. It's tiring how certain players get free passes and others don't based on things other than what happens on the field.
