    What are your realistic expectations for this year?

    • Top five offense. • Bottom five defense through four games. • Defense begins to show drastic improvement by mid-season, with Jenkins and Spencer returning to 2009 form. • Play physical, disciplined, determined football down the stretch and become the team no one wants to see in the playoffs. •...

    JJT: Deal with it -- Cowboys are rebuilding

    I think Garrett's rebuilding the philosophy and the culture of the organization, but... "Rebuilding" a football team means to me that you have no talent and no expectation of winning. That's certainly not the Cowboys.

    Center Andre Gurode deserved better, Beware Jay Ratliff

    Couldn't agree more.

    Gurode released

    This * 1000. Garrett is not only establishing how his team will be run, but also that HE is in charge. I remember another coach proceeding like this, coming in and cutting overpriced/underperforming vets. Three years later he was leading the youngest team in the league into the Super Bowl. I'm...

    Case for the Defense

    The prob is the whole front seven.

    Prediction

    We can make all the excuses we want, but Ware just doesn't beat his man with anything close to consistency.

    Case for the Defense

    Ryan may end up being the scapegoat, but the crappiness of the defense has nothing to do with scheme. We knew the secondary was bad, but who'd have guessed we'd be seeing the front seven getting blown off the ball like we have? The line of scrimmage gets moved three yards down the field at the...

    Prediction

    I think we may see another T signed, but I definitely think Holland or Nagy is starting at LG. As far as the defense's ineptness, scheme has nothing to do with it. The front seven continually gets blown off the ball, all of them. Ratliff may prefer playing NT, but he's not a NT in a 3-4 scheme...

    Possible Gurode trade/cut

    At any rate, it's not great timing, Costa out and the third preseason game about to start. Run tony run.

    Possible Gurode trade/cut

    I don't question starting Costa. I question dealing depth away at the position. This is why I think it must be a good deal. Mebbe Gurode for a quality corner.

    Possible Gurode trade/cut

    Man, am I clueless tonight. Even so, why cut Gurode or deal him for a 7th rounder?

    Possible Gurode trade/cut

    Has to be a deal they can't refuse.

    Possible Gurode trade/cut

    According to DC.com, Gurode not playing tonight is a "business decision."

    Starters Could Play Into Third Quarter

    Well, we're starting an UDFA rook at center, so this may be tough to gage.

    2011 Season Game Threads Mega-Merge

    It's preseason, but Washington is playing clean, aggressive, physical football. The quality of their secondary play has surprised me thus far.

    Strange Fruit From the Cowboys Receiver Tree

    Almost seems too good to be true, and you know how that goes.

    Bellichick: Let's get rid of non-plays

    I heard the clip. I thought he said to move the PAT out some, not eliminate it. I like that idea. Far as kickoffs, how about kicking off from the 35, as is, but lining up the coverage team on the ball?

    Cowboys' Mario Butler shines in practice; Tony Romo can't produce in the clutch

    Butler played well against SD, too.

    Nagy Continues With First-Team Offense

    PS: Has Houck changed his philosophy? Are the Cowboys a zone blocking team now?

    Nagy Continues With First-Team Offense

    If he can play, why not?
