    Question on "tanking"

    Players (esp backups) don't deliberately tank. They have jobs to play for. Only coaches can affect an outcome by deciding who plays and what plays to call.

    Good show on NFL Network: The Timeline: Tale of Two Cities

    Just finished watching part 1. Surprised that Bill Walsh was so snotty towards the Cowboys behind the scenes. Can't imagine Landry standing in a film room and saying something like "That Montana is such a hot dog. We're gonna kick his ass this week."

    2016 NFL Draft Thread...

    and if we pick 8th, we're definitely forking over next year's #1 (and a few other picks).

    2016 NFL Draft Thread...

    Because there are so few elites ones, QBs are always overdrafted. The Rams had Bradford and thus were not a real threat to draft RG3, yet they still extracted a king's ransom from the Skins. Just because the Titans have Mariotta doesn't mean there won't be a bidding war for the #1 pick if Goff...

    the team you trade up with will demand compensation as if it were Elway or Aikman for the taking. if you stay put, you will get a blue chip player regardless ... and not fork over god knows how many first rounders.

    neither of those guys is considered "can't miss," so only draft them if they fall to you.

    I'm not convinced Jerry will take either if they're still on the board. more likely he'll go the Stephen McGee route again.

    Bradford, mf'er. Bradford!

    Eagles fire Chip Kelly

    Except he once fired a coach who had total control over personnel. Jimmy something.

    Eagles fire Chip Kelly

    This makes them instantly better. They should be running the ball with Murray (in the I formation) with a QB under center.

    Injury update

    Moore especially. players don't give a shit about draft positioning. borderline guys like Moore are just trying to keep their jobs.

    DMN: Jerry Jones won't make major overhaul: Cowboys 'closer than this record indicate

    well duh. if he admits that we need an overhaul, that would mean that he failed as a GM. I think he honestly believes we're one one good draft away from a championship.

    USA Today: Is Garrett on the hot seat after Weedens success in Houston?

    Jerry likes guys he can control and won't contradict him in public (see: Hardy).

    McFadden

    absolutely they have to find someone. Turbin might just be a placeholder, and Mcfadden will always have injury concerns. The Cards got Johnson in RD3 and the Seahawks stole Rawls as a free agent, but the Cowboys are the only team to say "I guess we won't be getting a RB" after the sexier names...

    USA Today: Is Garrett on the hot seat after Weedens success in Houston?

    Peter King: "The Cowboys look so bad … but I do not believe it’s time to can Jason Garrett. He deserves one more year, at least, with Tony Romo. They’ve got great chemistry, and Jerry Jones shouldn’t be starting over." suck it, Pete

    This team sorely needs a Warren Sapp/Cortez Kennedy guy in the middle (sorry, Crawford).

    Week 16 Who you got?

    You do realize that Church and either Carr or Claiborne are coming back, right? If you show even a scintilla of ability, Jerry hangs onto you like grim death.
