That’s the only thing that would inspire me to watch.

@JPFinlayNBCS
Rivera says Commanders ownership had no involvement in QB decision

Translation: Dan Snyder is still meddling with football decisions.

Again, nothing on the field matters until we have a new Owner/GM/HC. It wouldn't surprise me if Danny boy forced Wentz back into the lineup (given the narrative that he pushed for the trade).

Re: Cowboys Pregame thread

I just saw on the ticker that Howell is going to be the starter Sun. Well good for Ron. I feel like someone got in his ear, maybe it was some of the coaches, who knows. But it gives me a reason to watch.

But this pass rush for Dallas is going to get after Howell. It's going to be a long day for him. Just hoping he makes a few plays and shows some promise.

I had no desire whatsoever to see Taylor.

Re: Cowboys Pregame thread

Per Keim, Heinicke told Rivera to start Howell instead. It's hard to not like Heinicke, despite his limitations. I definitely would not oppose to the idea of bringing Heinicke back only as a back-up QB next year.

Honestly, Heinicke wouldn't even be in the NFL right now if not for this staff. Good for him/good for them, however you want to look at it. He showed something to them years ago, and then he took full advantage of his opportunity when it arose as a COVID emergency QB who inexplicably got to play meaningful snaps in the playoffs. Does he belong in the NFL in some capacity, sure. I think he has proven that. I am ok if he is here next year as a backup at the right price, but I am also ok if he seeks employment elsewhere. In no way should he be in the conversation with regard to competing for the starting QB position. I will not be surprised if that happens though, depending on the timeline of the sale of the team, which will have an impact on what moves are or are not made this offseason.

Surely he sees the writing on the wall. His resume doesn't exactly scream (for the new owner(s) "we gotta keep this guy"!

That said, he doesn't seem like a quitter. He's just in over his head and is probably beginning to realize his many mistakes that led this team to be eliminated by week 17.

Re: Cowboys Pregame thread

I TH has done a great job in his role as a backup QB. Not many would be able to do what he did over the last two years coming off the bench. I think his time here is up, but that will depend on Sam.

Re: Cowboys Pregame thread

Wilbon just said the same thing on TV. He said “For what Ron did with QB and the last game i’d Fire him”

He also said he thinks he’s a good coach but makes bad decisions.

I'd fire him because his win/loss record over three years demands that he be fired.

Pricks who are losers get fired right away because nobody likes them or supports them but likable losers tend to stay around way too long because they have supporters and their bosses are sympathetic to their plight. RR is one of those deadly likable losers.

There is absolutely nothing about RR that makes me believe that he can turn things around and lead us to a championship. Therefore, I hope ownership doesn't make the mistake of keeping him around for two more miserable years.
