I don't agree (respectfully). I agree with David that these guys look like high school players. It's more than just scheme issues in the preseason. No one schemes in the preseason. But this team doesn't look anything like a football team and that's shocking considering guys are fighting for their jobs. It's partially talent and mainly culture and the attitude is a player wide cancer.
I think we actually agree. I'm hopeful that Schotty has a bit of his dad in him and really is calling plays strictly for evaluation. That's actually how it used to be done. Tom Landry lost a boatload of preseason games. The team looked horrible, and then they got to the playoffs. In fact, they rarely lost the first game of the season.

Yes, I am being very hopeful. I did hear Schotty allude to that idea though, so that is why I have a glimmer of hope on that. He did explain why some coaches don't. Basically it had to do with the idea that when a coach has been around for a while there really isn't much to hide anyway.

But of course, that goes against my Tom Landry example.

Even Jimmy did it a bit. He'd call plays that he KNEW would not work, but he called them anyway to see if the TE made the block or if the RB hit the right hole, etc.

Again, I agree, they look like shit. I'm just trying to be hopeful. It has to look better with Lamb, Pickens, etc.

Yes Dodger.......good call. Now THIS is football that Gen Z can get excited about.


This is the sort of shit I was referring to when I wrote I prefer MasterChef Australia. The entire NFL should be boycotted for this shit.

If they want male cheerleaders, fine. But have them in the traditional role of throwing and catching the girl etc.

Herschel Walker's son did that and he is gay. They continue to try to blur the lines between males and females.

It's just too in your face having gay men prance around like girls.

I can't jerk off to that at all. Okay, I lied.

Forget what I just wrote. I just listened to Schotty's press conference. It sounds like he is panicking even though he said he is not panicking.

Oh well. I did my best to stay optimistic.

The Nooch signed with the Falcons today and may be playing Friday night when we play them.

I gotta be honest, I think I'd feel better about the backup QB situation for us if we had him instead of either of the two we have now. He certainly couldnt be worse.

The level of Milton's unwatchable attempts at quarterbacking on offense combined with the continued sieve-like middle run defense is disgusting.
It's like they appear as though they aren't even professional players compared to the opponent when they're so dominated.

Then all of the post game rhetoric is a half assed pool of searching for very few positives.

This team's '25/26 version is gonna get ugly pretty quickly I think.

Buffalo at Chicago right now on Fox you dithering dunderheads.
Watching that game quashed my worries about Dallas. Here's Buffalo - at or near the top of every SB prediction, giving up 38 points and scoring Butkus... And looking like anything other than a NFL team. I mean, they seriously looked like hammered dogshit in all three phases of the game.

We're gonna be okay. Preseason games mean absolutely nothing. Keep your head.

For us it's 3 ass whippings in 3 attempts though

Looks like Ryan Tannehill is still a free agent. If we could sign him as a backup I would cut Milton and Grier immediately and not look back. I would also be looking hard for 1 technique who can clog up the middle. Still need CB help. I have zero confidence in this team as currently constructed. When Prescott goes down, and he will go down, we go from bad to really bad if we have to play either one of the backups currently on the roster.
