How does Chan Gailey errrr... Mike Mccarthy still have a job?
I would fire Gailey tonight and give a blank check to Sean Payton. it won't help this team though in the short term, they aren't looking like they belong on the same field as TB.

That contract for Prescott is looking terrible for sure. I know he's had a ton of injuries too but he was a good player on a team with a great OL, great RB and loaded at WR. the OL got old, the RB lost it quickly, and they have only 1 of that great WR group and Dak looks awful

Cowboys have gotten their butts kicked up and down the field, but because they play “some” D, they have kept it a 2 score game. Would cut off a finger to have a Bowles type D again in AZ.

it's true and I like him as a guy in the way he carries himself in the media, not sure if that is really him, but this is 2 games in a row against alleged good teams, that he has sucked. Dak looks weak, no energy or confidence, and he doesn't even look upset. he's done nothing to make the offense better and has not been accurate with the ball and often his timing is off. he threw a terrible interception that was 100% his fault. and his injury tonight, I read McCarthy's lips and he told the trainer to get him back out here, not sure what that is about.

I point it out because while I'm not as down on Kyler as many on the board are if you believe the Cards are going to have a terrible year and get a high pick, if there's a team in the NFL that you could say take Bryce Young and trade Kyler to, it would be Dallas because of where he's from and because that's how Jerry Jones thinks.

I'm not of the opinion Kyler's going to go anywhere in the near future but if he did, Dallas is the most likely team.

yeah a lot of questions answered tonight for dallas. their defense doesn't really look better than last year. they have a few players that can really do damage, but they give up a lot of yards on the ground and in the air. their offense doesn't look NFL capable and they have no chance if Prescott doesn't elevate his play to pick up the slack. I think the Jones family grossly undervalued Amare Cooper. they should of kept him and cut Elliott or let Gallup walk away when he recovered from that ACL.

Yeah IDK what dallas has planned for Prescott. I feel like they've made him and Elliott untouchable now and that's not a good thing given where they are at as a franchise. Elliott actually looked ok today, but they didn't really give him many chances. Prescott needs to be held accountable for his poor play and I don't think that will happen with the way the culture is in Dallas. Jerry would have to do something about it and I don't think that he will nor does he have any plans to trade him.

based on McCarthy's reaction either Prescott broke his hand, or it was something very minor and he's wondering why he pulled himself out of the game. I did read his lips once while he was talking to the trainer and it looked like he said "get him back out here then," so IDK.

also it is hard to say what TB are. Are they a good defense or are they just looking good because of Dallas? We all know not to count out Brady and that offense, but he did look like a sitting duck on obvious passing 3rd downs. and they struggled to run the ball in obvious short yardage situations.
