Amari Cooper?

        When will this rollercoaster ride end Cowboy Nation? Just when it “appeared” as if the Dallas Cowboys could turn the corner on their season. They go to Landover MD and lay an egg!
         I'm not talking about their usual bad performances. When the offense looks terrible for 3 quarters only to try and save the day in the 4th quarter. I'm talking about playing for first place in the division, and having 7 points through 3 quarters terrible.
         Fans can't seem to crack the enigma that is the Dallas Cowboys offense. I have news for you neither can the Cowboys front office. In an attempt to “try” and save the season, the Cowboys acquire Amari Cooper…………. That loud crashing sound was me falling out the chair laughing at this. You're team is falling apart at the seams and the only thing you can think of is grabbing headlines, Jerry. Really? That had to be the only reason they made this trade.
          What is Amari Cooper going to do that these other bum receivers can't do? Does Jerry Jones think that he's DeAndre Hopkins? More importantly if you can't figure out creative ways to get Zeke the ball, and he is usually 5-7 yards away from itl. How in the hell are you gonna scheme to get Amari Cooper the ball way out on the boundaries?
          Amari Cooper was never the answer to the Cowboys offensive issues. Firing Scott Linehan is! This offense lacks creativity. They also can't seem to consistently do what worked the previous week. There weren't any zone reads or design QB runs. I haven't seen a screen pass in about 3 weeks. Deonte Thompson is still running deep comeback routes. Geoff Swaim and Rico Gathers continue to be under utilized. Even though these WRs are completely ineffective. My biggest issue is they fail to make in game offensive adjustments. Did anyone else see that Double move work with Michael Gallup? Only to have them never run it again! Jerry, guess what would have grab more headlines, FIRING SCOTT LINEHAN!!!!
            The concept of Amari Cooper is a good one. Find a young WR that has talent to see if it's possible to strike the iron while it's hot. The problem is it cost you a 1st round pick. I still think they could have went and got Kevin White from the Bears or Devontae Parker from the Dolphins for a lot less. The rest of this year will be spent getting Dak ready for next season. Get comfortable with Dak Cowboy nation. This latest move all but stamped that he will be the QB for the foreseeable future.

Five keys to beating the Broncos 2017

                      I would call the Cowboys week one performance against division rivalry New York Giants, a good start to the season. The one thing we know about the NFL is that things change week to week. As fans we have to try and not overact to anything we saw in week one. The Cowboys ability to wear a defense down is no mirage. This offensive line is good and with La’el Collins at right tackle, it may be better than last season’s offensive line. Listen Doug Free was a good tackle for the Cowboys his entire career. Collins has the ability to be a force on the right side, and maybe take over for Tyron on the Left if he continues to struggle with injuries and has to call it quits. I’m not pushing Smith out the door but more and more football players are choosing to walking away in decent physical and mental shape.             The Cowboys were able to ti...

Five Keys to beating the Chiefs!!!

            I must admit that I’m most excited about this Chiefs game, than any other game the Cowboys have played this season. Beating the Redskins was bitter sweet; because they weren’t supposed to be good this year. I thought the Cowboys would roll the Broncos, but they laid an egg. The Packers have put the Cowboys out the playoffs the last two times and I was excited about seeing that game. There is something different about this Chiefs game. It feels a lot like the Steelers game from last season.             Remember when everyone said the Cowboys couldn’t beat the Steelers at home, they’re too young. The Steeler had the veteran QB, the star receiver, the star running back, and the home field advantage. The only difference between the Steelers last season and the Chiefs this season is the home field advantage. The Chiefs have the veteran QB in Alex Smith, who is an MVP candidate. Their star rece...

R-E-L-A-X Cowboys fans!!!!!

Cowboys fan are you ready to plant your feet firmly on the ground now? The Cowboys have high expectations set for them in 2017, and rightfully so. They won 13 games last year. Last year the rookies looked great and the thought is that they would come in more experienced. They beat the one team that swept them last season. Everything has been going right for this Cowboys team and now they finally have some adversity to face.         When everything goes your way and things appear to be easy, you begin to read the press clippings. The fans start shouting "Super Bowl" loud enough for everyone to hear it. These players and this coaching staff needed a wake up call. The Cowboys had a lot of turnover, this offseason,  on the defensive side of the ball. You had to be insane or delusional to think that this Cowboys wouldn't struggle at times this season. The defense was already bad, throw in 4 rookies and a lackluster pass rush and y...
