I'm glad they're done. I'm tired of seeing their mop heads on the news.

I will also say while the offense overperformed, it was not because of the running game, they underperformed, specifically Pollard. It was Dak that gave them a chance, Dak/CeeDee... Guy did you start a little early today Dak especially and the rest of the offense sucked except 87 Jake Ferguson. The only reason his passing yards were so high was because GB was ahead 27-7 at the halftime and played a soft defense 2nd half with their backups playing the fourth quarter. If GB would have kept their first stringers in on both sides of the ball and played a tighter D, the score would have been more lopsided and Daks number would have been worse. Lets not forget I am a Cowboy fan and watched the same game!

Guy did you start a little early today Nope, maybe you did? Those comments are for the season, not the GB game. My comments on the game I guess you missed “How they played that game was very disappointing, it was like they flat did not prepare, "play off level" prepare..”

It seems to me that, as opposed to not being prepared, the issues are that they are a team that can take advantage of poor teams….once they get going, the can play downhill, apply the gas, and run up the score.
But against a good team, the undersized defense gets exposed….especially when they don’t get big plays (i.e. sacks, turnovers). Then the other team runs the ball with ease. You also have a running game that isn’t heavy enough and a quarterback that is really good when the pickings are easy, but when it gets tough, he doesn’t have the chops.
This is going to be an interesting off season….one no one in charge anticipated.

Problem's not Dak, not McCarthy.....though they are part of it. Problem is as long as Jerry has control/GM responsibilities, they are destined for failure. Been saying it for 25 years and been right for 25 years.
Nothing will change until Jerry steps down or is dead, period. Been lots of coaches, QB's, and other main players for all of these years. What's the one consistent factor? Anyone? Anyone?

How did the boys of the 90’s get it done? Same owner? That level of talent has not been here since! Romo, Dak, Zeke, etc can’t hold a candle

So if Jerry got a GM, or made Will McClay the GM (which he effectively is any way), you think that is the solution? I doubt it. Jerry is a puppet GM, Will McClay is the real GM.

That’s true. Jimmy also thought it was going to be easy when he went to Miami. 10 years ago when Jerry effectively made Will McClay the GM, the writing was on the wall. Kinda hard to knock what they have done ever since then from a GM perspective. I just wish Jerry would shut up sometimes and let the HC lead, he was not too bad this year.

Looks like Jerry is keeping McCarthy around for 2024.
I am still looking for the perfect apron, one with reinforced knee areas would be perfect.

CD Lamb and Dak look to be at odds. CD looked to be throwing one of his tantrums during the GB game. He really only wants the ball on every play. May need to send him packing, even as good as he is. Can't believe there aren't more problems in the locker room that need to be worked out. Same ownership, same coach, same QB equals same result next year.

Anyone who thought Bill B. was coming to Dallas was delusional. Bill wants total control, Jerry wants total control. There just aren't many really good coaches that want to answer to Jerry.
