Care to share!? :wink:

Or we could take the Micah approach. More and better luck with elite defenses. :winkgrin: :cheesygrin: Cause it ain't Dak's fault.


If it is tied at the end of the game, apparently he wants to give the ball to his defense and have them do an int return for the win lol

So Jerry gave a Jets fan the finger over the weekend. I guess it cost him $250,000.00 for this behavior. Classy Jerry. Keep that wonderful culture going. :thumbsup:

Here’s the funny part, it wasn’t Jets fans he was flipping off. In his interview he said the place was filled with Cowboys fans and he had a group of Cowboys fans in front of his suite giving him a hard time. Jerry said he meant to give those fans a “thumbs up” when the game was over but he clearly didn’t like what they were saying and flipped them the bird. Lol

At least Cowboy Nation Fans on the East coast know how to treat Jerry. Good for them. Cowboy fans in Texas just take it and the younger generation fans still think Jerry's the greatest that can't do wrong. So sad.

All those picks Jerry got for Micah. Hum, Jerry is an all in guy. Hey Mr. B., is Jerry stupid enough to trade all them picks away he got from Parsons and trade them away on or before the trade dead line to bolster the defense? Or is he just telling the young Cowboy fans that to give them hope so they keep spending money and filling the seats? We have seen part of this movie before around the salary hell cap years. Didn't we trade away a #1 to a Detroit WR that turned out to be a total bust. Williams, I think. Just saying Jerry has done a horrible job at managing draft picks at times over the decades.

I actually would not be too upset if they traded one of the picks for a pass rusher. They need a pass rusher and until they got lucky drafting Parsons they’ve been pretty bad at drafting DL.

I would rather they trade for a guy that’s a proven commodity over gambling on another Mazi Smith or Taco Charlton. Now I would prefer the guy they trade for be under 30 years old but beggars can’t really be choosers.

I think the real question is, can Dallas keep this offense in tact and then make huge sweeping improvements to the defense NEXT SEASON.

And to keep the offense in tact? have to hang onto Pickens and Williams.


The defense though basically needs a complete makeover. HAVE TO hit on those draft picks. And then most importantly aquire some great but affordable free agents with the money saved from not signing Parsons.

Absolutely not. Nothing has changed. This is still the most “Cowboys like” season as they’ve ever had.

If we’re talking DL then yea Hendrickson, Crosby, or Jeffery Simmons would be the targets. I’d also like to know if Cleveland is interested in trading LB Devin Bush.

Does Diggs have any real value? He might have to be released.

I'll just say he can probably provide 3 more years as a serviceable starting CB. But I do think he has dropped off since his injury. From "good" to "below-average".

Jets probably wouldn't go for it. But they are 0-7 and because of that could be worth a shot.

Diggs makes way too much money on his current deal to be an asset.

2026 $14,500,000
2027 $19,500,000
2028 $20,000,000

He'll be a cap casualty.
