I wouldn't mind signing Austin

Jerry Jones is truly the reason why the Dallas Cowboys aren't going anywhere no time soon. He needs to hire a savvy GM like Bill Polian and let him run the Cowboys. But Jones won't do that because of his arrogance and his ego. The fact that he's considering signing Tony Romo to a deal after Romo has shown that he can't win in the clutch only confirms that Jones doesn't know what he's doing. Even if Romo is signed, does Jones have the common sense to look at the draft this year for Romo's eventual replacement? Seems doubtful. As far as Jason Garrett being on the hot seat, it seems like he should have been hired at the end of the 2012 season.

I hope Jerry Jones doesn't follow your advise.

He follows the voices in his head.

Don't know if this question deserves it's own thread:

Assume that for some reason RG3 was unavailable to us last draft. Would signing Peyton Manning have been a good move for us? For this past season? How about the near future?

Redskins would have made the playoffs for the next 3 years, pretty much guaranteed, but they never would have won a superbowl with Manning at QB.

With the cap penalty I don't know if that would be true. This year this will hurt more than it did last year.

We really need to get guys restructured and signed. I am very weary as to how this roster will look coming out of training camp.

Good question. I think this would have depended on how the defense would have played in the first part of the season. I think Manning could have worked his magic with our offense, I just don't know if the defense would have been able to play decent enough to get the offense through the adjustment period of the first half of the season. I don't think our defense is nowhere near where the Denver defense was this past season.

In the comeback game against San Diego, the Denver D played a big role in keeping the game within reach and put up some points themselves in the second half. I don't think our defense is able to do the same.

The only thing that makes consider that Manning would have been able to win here is that as good as our offense was this past season, it wasn't very efficient. We were getting tons of offensive yards, but had a terrible 3rd down conversion for the most part in the season and at times didn't do well in scoring in the redzone (see first game against the Giants). I wonder if Manning would have been able to overcome those inefficiencies. Talent-wise in offense, I think Manning could have been successful with the players we acquired.

[HailGreen28]

@donofriose and ruhskins: Would having Peyton help us become a team that could win a SB, even if like D says Peyton's own history isn't good? With Alfmo and Garcon and others we got, and Shanny and Bruce picking players in future years to build the team with?

Agreed Denver's D is way better than ours. QB play was so lacking for us until last season... I thought Peyton would never play at a high level again, but I agree he'd have a lot of success with our guys.

I doubt Smith does much there

Well Smith could do as much - Chiefs does have some weapons on offense with Bowe, Baldwin, Moeaki, McCluster, and Charles. I don't believe Smith will play great enough to win games for the team but I believe he will play well, just like he did with 49ers.

[Ruhskins]

Smith will be interesting in KC. Will definitely have better weapons than he did initially in KC (Bowe, Moeaki, and Charles). I don't know how good is the KC o-line; I believe Smith needs a good o-line to succeed. The biggest question will be the defense. KC had a good D when Crennel was their DC, they were pretty banged up last year, I wonder how they'll do this year.
