Championship!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm glad we got him wrapped up long term, I don't know how we could have possibly replaced such immense talent otherwise.

The Cowboys have signed safety Jeff Heath, a restricted free agent, to a four-year deal, according to his agent... ESPN: The Worldwide Leader in Sports

4 years 10 million seems pretty reasonable

Those 2 interceptions and 9 special teams tackles are irreplaceable guys.

You just don't find that kind of ability anywhere.

Dude is bound for Canton for sure.

To clarify I mean Canton, TX not Ohio.

dbair1967 · Apr 13, 2016

I'm just excited about the extra draft flexibility we have now, knowing we have Heath locked up long term.

Seems like they really do believe they have a near pat hand. They really do think this is a 12-4 team, without the injuries.

Ah, but he laid out that guy in the Seattle game and the punter in Philly.

Build from the inside out.

I guess we can forget about Karl Joseph now

Giving Heath 4 more years is more like filling the toilet bowl with crap before you flush it.

Truly an odd signing.

I don't see the value in a player like Heath. He's just a try hard warm body. The kind of player you should be looking to replace every single off season. Not locking up long term.

It's the Matt Johnson paradigm. Ever since Jason was promoted to HC he prefers to keep familiar players over impact or competitive playmakers who are forced to play at a high level or be cut. Or in the case of Matt Johnson keep the player on the roster who had never made it through a single complete game in the NFL.

I wish the Jones would wake up. This is Stepford Stupid.

I really would like to gut with a dull spoon the next person who spouts Canton, HOF, Championship or SB.

Well that's one of the problems and it has been for awhile. It is this weird complacency where they think they are better than they are and don't really even try to improve. Just maintain and try it again the next year.

Happened as far back as 2009 with the special teams draft.

And that crap spreads to the players too. They spend all offseason, every year, talking Super Bowl and they haven't even sniffed one in 20 years. Then the offseason comes, everyone is all perplexed why they didn't win the Super Bowl, they vow change......they do the same stuff they always did.

They'd rather be comfortable, happy and not walk on eggshells instead of making the changes it would take to win.

Exactly, junk. Even I who has no faith in anyone involved in this organization can't believe how blatantly they've claimed that last year was a total fluke due to injury and 2014 is the "real" team here. Even if you believe that, you could make a few comments about how unacceptable 4-12 was, about how there are no excuses and how heads will roll if it happens again for the players if nothing else.

But no, Steve goes on the Ticket and defends the defense while saying the horrific offense was due to injury and we'll just hope Tony doesn't get hurt two years in a row. Unbelievable.

I wonder if it's because Garrett was an undrafted try hard player with limited ability that he just likes to surround himself with the underdog types.

Certainly not in our starters like Mo and Carr who can only imagine what it must be like to pick off one pass in an entire season let alone two in one game!

If you were looking to sustain being a shitty team with no hope of a winning record what would you do differently than Jerry has done this off season?
