not to mention taking a flyer on Walker in '85. Mike Sherrard's brittle leg was sheer bad luck.

I didn't say they were crap; I said they were getting creaky and couldn't hold a mirror to those dominant 1970s defenses. drafting guys like Larry Bethea and Rod Hill will do that.

1980, actually. Know your facts before you start running your mouth. And yes, the defense was getting creaky, resulting in many early 1980s shootouts with San Diego, Frisco, Steelers, Raiders, etc.

Two wins by the scabs made the season better than it was. That said, Dallas would have actually made the '87 playoffs if they had the 90's playoff format (Cowboys would have been the #6 seed had there been 6 playoff teams per conference).

Well, yes and no. I loved Danny when he played, and I thought the comparisons to Staubach were unfair because White never had a Doomsday Defense to help him. If you look at the points the Cowboys gave up in those early 80's conference championship games (20, 28, 31) and compare it to some of...

but never a windfall like that. and had Jimmy stayed around long enough, he would have been saddled with some bad teams himself due to free agency and the salary cap. that said, he wouldn't have drafted stiffs like Carver, Carter and Goodrich.

True, but suckering the Vikings greatly accelerated our return to the land of the living. Landry had no such advantage when he inherited a dreadful expansion team in 1960.

Er, no. Landry was one of the great innovators in NFL history, on both sides of the ball. The 4-3 defense in NY, the Flex, the shotgun. (I know he didnt invent the shotgun, but he certainly developed it for the modern game.) Then there's 20 straight winning seasons, two titles, narrowly losing...

Middy's familiar with someone before Aikman? holy shit.

Although Danny played two positions, and did neat things like this, he wasn't nearly the athlete Tony is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ef_ZTBnvpLo

I'd put Romo ahead of White.

Twitter: Yes, the same FBI that is about to let Hillary skate is the same one that prosecuted hundreds of teenagers for downloading music.

and you'll kiss their ass when and if they do cut him

was there ever any doubt?

exactly. winning trumps integrity/character.

which is why they're not releasing McClain despite him repeatedly playing them for fools and making a mockery of the RKG mantra. if you have ability and fill a need, you're staying.

who cares who gives him the ax? just do it. but I bet they won't.

hmm. maybe your source confused Gregory with McClain.

Lincoln never told the South that they had to abolish slavery, just that they couldn't extend slavery into the Western territories. Had they agreed to that provision, slavery could have existed in the South for God knows how many additional years.
