THE OFFICIAL 2024 - 2025 DALLAS COWBOYS SEASON THREAD || 3-5 Next Game 11/10 vs. Eagles

[chiacrack]

I'd rather play Vick, Foles could air us out

I'd move Hatcher to DE and insert Nevis in his DT place

 

[hadowajp]

You want pressure up the middle on a drip back qb so for me Hatcher stays put... Just need to watch out for shady and we'll be good 24-14 Dallas

I don't think we've ever beaten the Eagles when Vick played the entire game

 

[chiacrack]

I don't think we've ever beaten the Eagles when Vick played the entire game

because Vick is fragile, and he's beat up already, so start him and I guarantee one good hit he sees the sideline and that would give us a better chance to win

I think Foles lights us up and we lose this game

 

[hadowajp]

Vick is 3-0 against the boys since coming to Philly

 

[essential1]

With a nonexistent line, Vick would have eaten us up for lunch.

 

[captainsneakerhead23]

Had a dream last night ..

Randle: 14 carries
Tanner: 4 carries

Romo: 44 pass attempts 2 INTs

Sheagles win 27-17

Hopefully that's not the case ..

The offense in particular seems to play down to their opponents. Three worst defenses we've played were SD, Washington and the Giants, but we've only scored around 50 points combined from the offense driving the ball in those games. So it would not surprise me at all if the offense stutters again in Philly. Thankfully, the team has consistently found ways to put up points and put the offense in position to score from day 1. First time in years that I'm confident we can win a game w/o the offense having to ball out.

I'm looking for Dez to have a big game. Whenver he has a clunker, he always comes back with a 100 yard 1 TD type of game.

I'm praying Monte Kiffin has circled this game on his calender since he got exposed back at USC by Chip and Oregon's offense.

The Eagles have yet to win at home, and we have yet to win on the road.
Eagles are the number one rushing team in the league.
DeWayne Harris is averaging 23.6yds every punt return, and 34.7yds on kick returns.
We have the 30th ranked defense, and Philly is dead last.
Tony Romo has a 108.6 QB rating and is third amongst quarterbacks who have started all their teams games.
No reason we shouldn't win this game.

When we play these type of teams with terrible defenses, it seems like the offensive staff is so caught up in trying to do so many things that there's no clear cut gameplan. This internal indecisiveness always shows when we come out and throw the ball on first down for an incompletion... second down we throw a 3 yard Witten hitch route for 0 YAC... and third down is an incomplete pass.
Frustrating as hell when we can easily and I mean easily run on first or second down for 4 yards which is huge when you possess the weapons we do going into at least 3rd and 6 if not less.

Dvisional games against Washington and Philly are always tough. We have trouble scoring in these games, but for whatever reason we seem to have no problem scoring against NY, its DC and Philly that give us trouble on offense.

Just scooped Randle and I traded Marty B for TW (go figure lol) in fantasy though, pretty happy I got them on my team "It's Your DEZtiny" along with Dez

I've drafted Dez in every league each year since he was drafted Team name is Miles Of Dezstruction this year. Also picked up Williams out of free agency this week

 

[chiacrack]

I acquired Dez via trade last year, this year he was my second pick, I made a vow to end up with him from here on out

we do a live draft with a board and everything so its awesome announcing your pick in front of your friends "with the 15th pick of the 2013 fantasy football draft, Its Your DEZtiny selects............................. Dez Bryant Wide Receiver Oklahoma State Dallas Cowboys"

 

[blackboyfly]

I've never done a draft like that always do them online. But everyone says those drafts are so much more fun. Going to have to try it out next year.

 

[mpire]

I do live drafts myself and I agree, they are so much more fun.

Was pissed in one draft though, I picked Drew Brees with the #6 pick and the dude after me picked Calvin Johnson and Dez coming back down. I tried to trade him Drew Brees and Alfred Morris for Dez but he declined. My name is Dezstination End Zone

 

[chiacrack]

assemble 10 of your boys, do it for money and do a live draft you will never do an online one again

this is our second year, I cant wait for the next draft its so much fun

our league has a $400 entry fee, the payouts are sick

that sucks man, I need to get Dez no matter what he may be my first pick next year (better than my first pick this year, 6th overall C.J Spiller) the messed up part is we randomize our draft order, I had 6th last year took Shady he sucked, this year I get 6th again I take Spiller he sucks, if I had taken shady this year I would probably be 5-1 instead of 2-4

lesson learned, taking Spiller next year because he will bounce back like Shady did

 

[blackboyfly]

I took Dez with the #6 and #4 picks this year I'm not one of those guys who only picks up players from his favorite team but I have to have Dez.

Definitely going to have to do a live draft.

 

[chiacrack]

I'm a little Cowboys biased but I haven't let that get in the way of fantasy

Dez is one of the best WRs in football, I truly believe that even if he were an Eagle so I always want to own him

matter of fact, if we ever trade Dez or he walks, I may have to leave with him, I hope that never happens

 

[blackboyfly]

If Dez left I would definitely root for whatever team he went to, same with Romo. Would still be a Cowboys fan first and foremost, but I love those guys.

Edit: We released Ratliff

Spoiler

Good Riddance

No matter how hard i try i always end up with a cowboy on my team. Doesn't help that most people i play with are either giants or bills fans. (supervisor used to live in buffalo)

 

[chiacrack]

I TOLD HEADS RAT WAS DONE!

seriously I said it in March he was not coming back and to draft a DT but NOOOOOOOOOOOO Marinelli and Kiffin we got Rat we got Rat hes the best 3-tech bla bla bla

told them old bastards

 

[blackboyfly]

Again, this shows how fast the Garrett led organization is ready to move on from people that can't help the team. Even though he should've been cut right after the DUI imho.

 

[captainsneakerhead23]

He definitely should've been cut after the DUI .. I wish him well, when healthy he was a BEAST
