I don't like this move and I don't understand this move.


I agree.

That's why I'm expecting a move by Jerry Jones on or before the trade deadline.

It's just asking too much expecting Cox to step right in and play at a high level.

Yeah I feel like I have a little more clarity now on Smith and also needed a reminder that Keanu Neal is coming in to replace him.

It's sad to me because I like Smith as a person and I was rooting for him big time but at the end of the day we can't pay a backup LB $10m a year and it looks like due to his injury we had to wait until now to cut him.

Connor McGovern news. It’s about time he get some reps at Center. Now I’d like to see Biadasz at LG.

The report said he will be out for 6-8 weeks.

I think he's expected to return early November.

If I'm Jerry or Stephen, which ever the one who is calling the shots today, to have a plan in place so Moore can be our next head coach before someone else takes him away from us. He by far is the best coach on the team and McCarthy by far is the worst. I WANT MOORE as the next head coach for America's Team.

McCarthy has made bad management calls in 4 of their 6 games. They can overcome those bad calls when they’re playing crap teams however that will get you beat in the playoffs against good teams.

I just don’t see any way Jerry let’s the next Sean Payton walk out the door again.

Its nice to have a Cowboy fan that thinks the way I do. And you are spot on imho my friend. K. Moore is another baby Sean Peyton in the making if not there already.

Jerry has even said in the past that letting Sean Payton leave to go coach the Saints was one of his biggest mistakes. That was the whole reason he kept Garrett here so long. If Moore were to leave I think he would likely go to the Giants. I definitely do not see any way Jerry let’s that happen.

I expect that in order to keep Moore from leaving Jerry will give him a HUGE pay raise as well as a promotion to co-head coach. If Moore or McCarthy balk at that then it’s likely MM is out and Moore will be promoted to HC. None of this will happen until the off season though.

Couldn't agree more. We can't let K. Moore be taken away from us. We may have a future Hall of Fame coach right underneath our finger tips and we must do everything to keep him and not let anyone take him from us. I think Moore is a stud and gem. :thumbsup:

This might be the most important game of the year. How we respond vs. the Falcons will determine if we are a one and done team in the playoffs or still a contender.

I don’t agree with that at all. This game is far from must win. They do need to play better and I think they will but a loss here would not be the end of their season. Both Gallup and Trystan Hill will be back for this game. I don’t expect the WR’s to drop as many passes as they did last week and I don’t expect to still be rusty.

I know we very rarely disagree but I never said it was a must WIN, JUST VERY IMPORTANT. All teams have a bad week from time to time, even great teams. Last week, 7 first place teams lost. But the great teams and Super Bowl contenders for the most part, respond very favorably. And that is what I'm looking for. I want them to send a message to the rest of the league that we are still big time contenders and not a one and done team. A loss today signals to me that our Cowboys are only benefiting from a weak division and its the same ole, same ole. And I'm not so sure the NFC East is the worst division in the NFL anymore. A person could make a case for the AFC East, AFC South and NFC Central are worse.

So far so good. Dak looks sharp. Defense had 1 bad drive but has make a couple stops.
