Do the people in Dallas blast jones for not hiring a GM?


Whatever doesn't bother me at all but damn man I'm not saying he will but he should

idk about dallas, but ive run across 2 types of Cowboys fans.

1 who are still enamored with the Star and those 3 SB rings and think dude does no wrong.

and the others are sick of his antics, i was a bar when the draft was going down, i heard a bunch of sighs when the cowboys traded back, and 1 dude walked out when they drafted that center

Living here +1 to all that.

There are no in betweens.

^ i dont see throwing for 5000 yards as a winning recipe in the NFL....too one one dimentional, add to that the chances of him duplicating that 5000 yd 40 td 17 int season is pretty slim IMO...

add in his inability to stay healthy and nah...


i do agree theyre talented...so were the eagles last year(this year too)..so are the cowboys every year...so on and so forth..

The Lions have the talent to win the division but the coaching to go 7-9.

This Matt Stafford can't stay healthy line is ******ed at this point though.

You do realize Matt Stafford hasn't missed a game in two years right?

Felix Jones to the Eagles

Maybe a fresh start with kelly can help the last two years he looked nothing like the back from Arkansas that we drafted

 

[ThaxbyChamblis]

He was never the same after y'all made him/he chose to put on all that extra weight. Lost his electric burst & shake

Nobody is surprised that Andy Reid had Taco Tuesdays and Fast Fridays

Former Jags WR Jimmy Smith Is In Jail for 6 Years, Apparently

Deadspin.com

Any "where are they now?" story that ends in jail is bad. This one's worse: former Jags great Jimmy Smith has been in jail for nearly two months, and no one noticed until today.

First Coast News reports that Smith has been in a Mississippi jail since late March, and is scheduled to be there until 2018, serving time on charges of cocaine possession and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Smith has had a series of arrests since retiring after the 2005 season, and recently moved back to his hometown of Jackson, Miss.

A mainstay of the Jaguars offense for a decade, Smith remains 16th on the NFL's all-time receptions list, and 17th in receiving yards.

very true...his ypc went down every year...

Loved watching Jimmy Smith as a receiver. Sad to hear about him and Keenan.

^ was in jax for boarding school when the jags were actually good..

when they had brunell and fred taylor with those guys.. was a pretty entertaining team whenever taylor could stay healthy

 

[champcruthik]

Were those the Kyle Brady days?

 

[IATT]

yup..

when they had that playoff beatdown of the dolphins 62-7 in dan marino's and jimmy johnson's farewell game

 

[do work son]

The Colts had 8 games last year decided by 1 touchdown or less. They won all of those games. I think they're a good team but that's a lot of luck falling in your favor.

That jags team had some talent.

The new Vikings stadium looks like a mega church.

Worst 11-5 team I've ever seen. Their point differential was n par with the Lions and Browns last year Every week they were eeking out wins over mediocre-garbage teams. Their schedule should be harder this year but I'm sure with Luck being in his 2nd year and some of the upgrades theyve made they won't regress too far.

Did you guys forget the fact that coach chuck pagano had cancer and basically missed the whole year? Im gonna give them the benefit of doubt that they were playing with heavy hearts last season. And Andrew luck is gonna have a ring or two or three before its all said and done he's too good not to

So all those Colts games last year were luck, but when people questioned the Texans you said it was mental toughness. Where's the consistency?

saw conceptual images of the new vikings stadiums. it looks nice but i think there is way too much glass. might not be a good idea with how cold it gets.

Months later and you still don't get it. Just go away you troll.

Nah I get it , you're just full of it. You've backtracked on every single aspect of mental toughness. Said it would win games down the stretch and later that it wouldn't. Now saying that it isn't even universal for each team. Others it builds and fosters while other teams just get lucky. You sure I'm the the troll?

It's like a big greenhouse. They have huge doors in the front that open up, but no retractable roof. It gets the job done as far as I'm concerned. Nothing crazy though.
