^^^ I was going to post the same Robert G pic.
Isn't there still this air of stupid confidence that says "We (Garrett) are not wrong about these players and we were never mistaken in trying to win last year with these exact players"? Jerry and Jason have both used the phrase "if we let him go to another team, they get the benefit of all of our training". It's like there is more concern with guarding against humiliation than there is just trying to win.
Meanwhile, in Foxborough New England fearlessly let go one of their best defensive players, like they did with Milloy, Seymour, and others.

He led all our backs last season up until he got injured. You talk as if he played like shit all season. He had more yards than the rest of them until he blew out his knee
He will compete for the #1 spot with McFadden
It will be the same shit as last year. We won't draft a RB and will try this RB by committee bullshit again until one of them shakes loose and proves to be the best

Dallas does not have a running game. They have a very good offensive line, a fast RB, an elusive 3rd down back and a Rod Smith. Without a few of McFaddens long runs last year the running game was really a joke last year. No one here would want a repeat of how and when and why Dallas ran the ball in 2015. 2014 controlled the LOS on the majority of the series in games. Last year Dallas looked tentative and unsure last year during running plays. Until Jason allows significant strategy and device to get put into the plays and time per game they will not have a true running game, they will have a collection of residue from 2014 that never happened again.

We finished 9th in the league in yds rushing per game and 5th in yds per attempt, and that was with arguably the shittiest QB situation in the league last year and Dez MIA for basically the whole season too.
They have a run game.

from what Ive gathered, there isn't
no way fans see this as a positive unless they get him and he plays well
If they sign him, people will say he must sucks because Oakland let him go. If they don't sign him, they'll say they're doing nothing in free agency and players don't want to come to Dallas anymore
these buffoons have used up all their good will and only the most homeristic fans have any faith and hope left

Neither Dunbar or McFadden will be the starting RB this year. Dunbar can never stay healthy and can't be depended on for 16 games. McFadden had an injury free year. How often has that happen in his career? At this stage of his career McFadden is better suited as a backup. The starting RB this year isn't even on the team yet.

They officially signed this Raider guy to an offer sheet, Raiders have 5 days to match.
Redskins RB Alfred Morris and reportedly Chargers CB Patrick Robinson coming in for visits next week. Robinson had a pretty decent yr for the Chargers and might be a good add if the price is right.

With the deal he signed, he may not even counting on our cap right now. Unless they changed it, there used to be something about only the top 49 or maybe 51 contracts counting against the cap in the offseason.
Like I said. Doubt he is here past the end of camp/preseason.

That's my point. During the 8-8 years you could argue as Jerry and Jason did, that Dallas had a strong passing game based on those "yardage" stats. And during those year the passing game could do anything except make TDs and win games.
Contrast the amount of first downs in 2014 and runs that controlled the LOS. That was a running game. Last year they had the pieces but not the picture.

OL yeah. McFadden was better than most thought he'd be. But Matt Cassell was horrible and not having a healthy Dez definitely impacted how teams could play us.
It was also stupid to believe Joseph Randle was going to work out.

whoever the scout was on Randle he should be fired if he did not find evidence that Randle was a mental case. Now I can see if for whatever reason Jerruh and company decided to ignore that part of the report; they do that stupid crap all the time. BUt if there was nothing in that report that hinted at this sort of thing then that scout needs to be GONE.
