I get a kick out of it when the Barney Fife authority types get cut down to size for over-reacting.

Low-grade ore. Cowboys have enough of that at RB already.

I'm not sure what to make of the Cowboys performance vs. the Giants. On the one hand, it is very unusual for a team to win a game with -3 turnovers. It suggests that the Cowboys are far superior to the Giants ... to be able to beat the Giants despite spotting them points and possessions. On...

Huh. Isn't that something. I'd have really enjoyed hearing Verne do a Dallas game again.

He's not a feature back. However it is quite possible that Randle would be better playing Dunbar's role in the offense than Dunbar is. Randle's one-handed catch was pretty fancy. When interviewed, Jones sounds like a genuinely bright guy. He had an unusually high Wonderlick score (as did...

For me, the major upside is Romo. It is clear that Romo has mastered the game. He reminds me of Staubach in 1979. Romo has this game down cold. Romo won't always win, he'll make some physical mistakes (fail to execute correctly), his supporting cast may fail him occasionally, but Romo...

When you don't use your preseason to get ready, you won't be ready. It isn't complicated.

Yeah, it did look like Romo tweaked something .... Mostly this is reminding me of a preseason game. The team isn't sharp.

QB acquisition is a crap shoot, no two ways about it.

Glad to hear it. He's a very solid player.

Yeah. It is not at all difficult to imagine Eli punishing Claiborne and Carr.

It isn't so unusual. A quick review of the past 10 seasons: In 2014, 1 playoff team had a sub 9-7 record (Panthers were 7-8-1). In 2013, 2 playoff teams had a 9-7 or worse record (Chargers, 9-7; Packers 8-7-1). In 2012, 0 playoff teams had a 9-7 or worse record. In 2011, 3 playoff teams had a...

Let's go with a loss to the Packers. This result will prompt people at CZ to draw parallels between Garrett's losses to the Packers and Landry's losses to the Packers ("Tom had the same problem, but he broke through it just like Jason will.") Many at DCU will find such reasoning to be...

11-8 includes playoffs

Making PATs more difficult elevates the importance of kickers. Anything that makes full-time kicking specialists more important is a bad idea, IMO. One thought I've had through the years is this ... What if the rules were set up so that kickers and punters could not be full-time specialists...

No probably not that. But you are a smart guy. You can probably figure out other reasons.

cmd - I couldn't agree with you more on the big picture.

Yeah, that's pretty much where I am. I didn't want the Cowboys to overpay for Murray, but I expected the Cowboys to be fully committed to securing an adequate replacement. The current RB situation reminds me a bit of what happened on the OL after the team moved on from Gurode, Kosier, Adams...

I think Dbair is correct ... it'll be like a preseason game that counts. I have no idea who will win.
