We need you Dez!!!!!



           With all the great and exciting new things going on with the Dallas Cowboys, its easy to forget about the great things they’ve had. The Cowboys have a great young nucleus but they also have some really good veteran pieces as well. Sean Lee made his first all-pro team last season and is considered one of the best linebackers in football. Jason Witten will retire as one of the best tight ends to ever play this game. Then that leads me to Dez Bryant, the “X-factor”. Since coming into the league in 2010 you have amazed Cowboys fans with your brilliant showcase of physical attributes.  Your body control, leaping ability, and overall physicality is second to none. The last two years have been tough on you health wise but this team will need you in order to make a super bowl run.
            All great offenses usually have a good to great quarterback, a good to great running back, and a good great wide receiver. Dak is going into his second season and time will tell how good this young man will turn out to be. Zeke has already exhibited the skills that make a great running back. Dez is that last piece to the Cowboys current version of the triplets.


            In 2014 Bryant lead the league in receiving touchdowns with 16. That year he also had 1320 yards receiving on 88 receptions. Those aren’t just good numbers they’re great numbers! The two season prior to 2014 he also had double digit touchdowns and over 1000 receiving yards. The point is when healthy Dez is beast! The only thing slowing him down is injuries. Luckily, for him he hasn’t had any major injuries (torn ligaments, broken bones, ruptured muscles, etc.). The Cowboys are going to need that 2014 Dez Bryant back. They need a legit number one receiver that will make the tough catches and catch the fade routes in the redzone.
            I truly expect a great year from Dez. Defenses will be occupied with the rushing attack and for all you people that think defense will figure out the Cowboys, stop it! A run first philosophy isn’t anything new. This offensive scheme has been around since the beginning of football. The Cowboys are bigger and stronger than everyone else and you have to stop the run before you stop any other part of this offense.
            I digress, with defenses committing to stopping the run Dez will see a lot of one on one, and high low coverage looks. They won’t be able to just double him because they’re going to need the safety in run support most times. Defense will shade the safety to his side to give the appearance of a double. That is when he will need to win those matchups, and make big plays. I predict 12 touchdowns, 1300 yards, and 90 receptions for Dez this year. Dak will be a lot more comfortable in the offense and will take more chances down the field. Those chances will go in Dez’s directions. Together those two will have a great season!

How to make a Return Sean Lee?

   I was born in the 80s. That means that I lived through the greatest era of wrestling, the 90s-2000s. We don't have enough time in one blog to go over all the things that era of wrestling got right. One thing they did exceptionally well was wrestler returns. The Cowboys could steal a page out the WWF (now WWE) playbook as it pertains to Sean Lee's return. Daily build up, pyrotechnics, and a heel! Every great return needs a heel. Stings heel was Hollywood Hogan for goodness sake!         Who better a Heel than the Philadelphia Eagles? The defending super bowl champions (🤮🤮🤮). The team whose fans cheered when Michael Irvin laid motionless on his back (something I will never forget). They got the title but it feels like they cheated, like they got outside interference. It just feels like we need a good guy in this situation. Somebody to come from the back and give the fans hope that all good will prevail. The someone is Sean ...

Why The Cowboys need Taco to Develop?

The theme for the Dallas Cowboys 2018 season should be DEVELOPMENT! This is a team that desperately needs its young players to become special talents in the NFL. No players development is more important to the Dallas Cowboys than Taco Charlton. Taco Charlton was the Cowboys 2017 1st round pick. There were a ton of question marks surrounding Charlton coming out of college. Would his athleticism be good enough to make an impact in the league? Will his lack of a pass rush repertoire hinder his progression at the next level? Can he learn to utilize that big frame and be the defensive linemen that NFL organizations covet? After one season all those question marks still remain. The Cowboys better hope Taco Charlton can begin to check off all those questions this season. Charlton wasn’t drafted to be the Cowboys bookend pass rusher. Bookend pass rusher being the guy you can count on for 12+ sacks a season. Some fans will say, “ why draft a guy in the first round if you...

Cowboys lost to Rams.... Defense!!!

       If you're reading this expecting me to bash the Cowboys defense stop reading now! The Cowboys have a struggling defense but that shouldn't be a surprise to anybody. The only way to build a championship team in today's NFL is to hit on some draft picks.  The Cowboys have invested a ton of money on the offensive side of the ball. They still have to pay Zach Martin this season. Also consider that they will have to pay Zeke and Dak at some point very soon. The only way to improve this defensive unit is via the draft. Look on the bright side, the Cowboys could be paying $200 million to defensive players and be sitting at 0-4 like the Giants.         Staying with the money aspect for just a second. Demarcus Lawrence (DLaw) and David Irving are up for contracts after this season. Lawrence was leading the league in sacks coming into week 4. Chances are they will only keep one of them. Byron Jones, a...
