PlayAction Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I don't want to root for a team that is content with losing. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koolblue13 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 On Sundays "just win baby"! This Monday? "Paloffs are nao!!" Most Mondays I want the draft position, but wins just feel too good. This team is an abusive lover who occasionally let's you smoke opium. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade7 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 How weird is it gonna be if Taylor leads us flaming hot into the playoffs and there will be folks mad we can't get a high enough pick to replace him? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 For the long term health of this team we need a franchise QB and the odds are better the higher you pick. With that said, its hard for me in good conscience to actively root for the team to lose when mathematically you still have a chance at the playoffs. This isn't like the end of 2019 when the team was absolutely in the gutter and the #2 pick was clearly in sight. There are quite a few teams worse than us and this isn't a strong draft class at the very top anyway(especially at QB). Also there are too many guys on this team I respect and admire like McLaurin, Allen, etc. and there is no way I'd want them to suffer losing. Lets finish 9-8, get that 7 seed, and knock off the 2 seed Cowboys in the 1st round. Why the heck not? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoDeep81 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Just to compete, competently would be nice. Let the W/L's fall where they may. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88Comrade2000 Posted November 16, 2021 Author Share Posted November 16, 2021 Realistically, we probably only win 3-4 games but this team can go on a run to the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koolblue13 Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I want to sweep the ****ing Giants and I want a positive record in the NFC East. I want that really badly. I want to be able to put a hurt on the cowboys, win or lose, but I want at least one win. Draft pick, playoffs, whatever. That's out of our control, but I want the EAST. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HigSkin Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 (edited) Listening to RR on The Junkies this morning and he is acutely aware that our schedule sets up to beat out a couple of possible wild card teams. Specifically, Carolina and Seattle our next 2 games and kind of must wins. For some reason, his teams have done better in the second half of the season. I really think if we can clear them with wins and steal a few extra division game wins, including split with Dallas, we could go 9-8 and get a wildcard playoff berth.

Wildbunny Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 (edited) I nearly answered what I thought would happen, which is probably 3/4 more wins. But since question is about what I want, obviously I want us to finish strong and ends up 11-6 with a playoff berth. As @Warhead36 said, there's lots of players on this team that deserves more than losing on any given sunday, because they did put their balls on the field against the Bucs. They deserve more. As far as Draft stock? I don't care much about it. I'll think about that come the offseason. And with all his limitations, I'm fine riding the game with Heinicke one or two years more, because the guy is just fun to watch. He's not playing scared, not matter what. Somehow, he seems like a young Fitzpatrick, minus the arm. Heinicke / Allen is a better duet than Beck/Grossman anyway. I was able to survive that. Heinicke / Allen is just fun to me. So yeah, let's go to the paloffs! Edited November 16, 2021 by Wildbunny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we pick in the top 5, there is a strong possibility that we select a QB, and you know who's going "to get off his yacht" and make that pick !

Who knows where things could be now if Mike got his guy and got to build around that person. We had a future head coach waiting in the wings to take over also..

It's like we keep painting the rooms of a house while neglecting that the foundation is way off. 8 minutes ago, Stone Cold said: With heinike tossing the Lombardi trophy to mclaurin while he’s drunk on a boat 🤷♂️ 50 bucks he throws it too high. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dallas has only had 3 losing seasons since 2004. So, they are typically picking in the the middle of the first at best. That has not stopped them from being able to put together talented teams. I prefer a winning season to a high draft pick. Even if it doesn’t result in a championship, I want the team to go out and win games. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is interesting, I took a look back at the first overall from the last 25 years and I'd say maybe 6 have lived up to the expectation (depends on how you feel about guys like Vick, Bradford, Stafford, Eli and Newton).
