I can see them being attractive to QB's destination wise. Marshall looks the part. Robby Anderson just cracks me up man. Just kinda looks a little out there. I thinks it’s the sideshow bob hair cut lol. But the dude continues to impress and just earned a nice extension. Too bad they sank their hopes on ship Darnold. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you forget who started most of WFT games last year at QB..Haskins was rated as one of the worst QB's last year, and if WFT had just a middle of the pack QB they would of easily finished with a winning record..Your in for a rude awakening just like other Cowboys fans if you think your Offense is gonna march up and down the field on WFT's Defense. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well your guy Sheehan doesn’t sound like he can nail down an opinion on much of anything from what I’m reading. I won’t be listening to him. I think Dallas is a mediocre team at best, though I can't switch teams, as I am already locked to the Cowboys. I think Dallas has a less than 50% chance of winning the NFC East, but I would not pick any other team in the East to be favorites over them. If Dak is not OK, they are longshots. If Dak is OK, they have the best QB in the division, and that is usually enough. I do not think Dallas should be feared or worshipped. They are not even a good team. But, I have to throw out some support for them when they are dismissed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty telling what Tomlin really thinks of him when he’s not even playing Rudolph in this game. And after that jazz game I saw a couple articles talking about him replacing Rudolph as Ben’s backup and how they may have found their QB of the future as he fits perfectly into Pittsburgh’s system and has been doing all the right things, great attitude and work ethic, blah blah blah. Snap, back to reality lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are/were reputable posters on this forum who still believe in Dewey Haskins too. I was a big Haskins supporter. Liked him coming out, was pleased we drafted him. I thought after the last two games of his rookie year when he played well that he had a real chance if he continued that progress. I always acknowledged though that there was more chance he would not make it than that he would. it was clear that he did not progress, in fact he went backwards. I was not sorry when we cut bait. You see the same footwork and mechanical issues now with the Steelers you saw here and some of his comments in interviews suggest he’s still got a lot of growing up to do. He’s someone else’s problem now. 10 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jericho Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 10 hours ago, skinny21 said: I don’t exactly disagree with you here, but Keim has been pretty adamant that Barber is making the team, and people have been making the argument that he fills a niche the other backs don’t/can’t… so it would be a surprise in that sense. Not nearly as big a surprise as cutting Peterson for example though, so I get where you’re coming from. Everett is a ST ace, was our next man up at FS last year, so I think a lot of people would be pretty surprised. Maybe we should differentiate between ‘surprise’ and ‘shock’? Keim is just one guy though, one who has no actual say in making the roster. I wouldn't take his word as gospel either, I mean he's been wrong before despite a solid track record. The Athletic had a pretty decent breakdown on Friday. They figured around 21 guys are fighting for the last 8 spots. It felt most of the rest of the roster was pretty locked in. It didn't go so far as to call the other 45 guys "locks". There's a few guys they admit could get cut, like Cam Sims, David Mayo, or even Jimmy Moreland. But that would be a surprise. The main point in bringing this up is that neither Barber or Everett is in those 45 safe spots. They're squarely on the bubble fighting for one the last 8 spots. And that's pretty much where they've always been. They're clearly in contention for being cut, even if they don't ultimately see the Turk. But both have been on the roster bubble throughout. I still maintain cutting someone like that is not a "surprise" or a "shock", but just normal. Another factor to consider in constructing the roster is potentially trying to stash players on IR. They have to make the 53 first to be activated later in the season. But what about stashing a guy like Casey Toohill there? A way to create a temporary extra roster space is to cut from a weak position, say LB or RB. Barber doesn't have to clear waivers, so he could be one those guys that's cut and later brought back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burgold Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 I think that's a pretty good point. I think the chances of Barber being poached is pretty small. How many teams view him as a necessary piece to their puzzle? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only reason they’ve seemed to be a good team is playing in the NFC Least. To make matters worse for them, they’re being coached by McCarthy. He’s not awful but with a QB like Rogers, he should probably have three rings instead of one. The CowTurds have a fairly talented roster but not enough to overcome McCarthy like Rogers did. ...and yes, Dak is an Uncle Ruckus house negro. Rivalry is one thing but being a sellout makes me really, really dislike him. My hatred of the Turds never waned and he’s taken it to new heights.

Malapropismic Depository Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Last week @Koolblue13was hoping or expecting a 3pm game (for some KoolBlue Reason), but had to settle for an 8pm instead. This week he shall be happy to know the NFL has compromised with his expectations, and provided a much earlier 6pm game tonight. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
