It takes a huge beat down to really put things in perspective. Everyone just assumed Dallas was going to be hot **** this year. Take it one game at a time and learn from the loss. Cheer up cowboys, you're still a great team. Just need to regroup and move onto week 3
LaDainian too. I can understand getting stuffed all day that happens, Denver shut him down and forced Dak to try and beat them, he couldn't. The part I didn't like was the film clip of Zeke standing on the field with his hands on his hips watching his team mates chasing a defender after a turn over, I think that is what pissed Ladanian off. Denver was ready , Dallas seemed to think all they had to do was show up. I have a feeling Dallas will show up next week or it will be a long season. Dallas's d backfield made Siemien look like Brady. “What Denver did today, they just laid out the blueprint. I was surprised by how physical they were, the Denver Broncos against this offensive line. Zeke, to his credit, he didn’t have any room today. He was running, getting hit in the backfield, making moves in the backfield – but all of that is OK. I didn’t like the way he quit today. I didn’t like that. He absolutely quit on his team today.” After he was prompted to elaborate, Tomlinson wasn’t done with his harsh and pointed criticism. “First, his attitude on the sideline. Clearly, he didn’t have any communication with his teammates. But also, he didn’t want to talk to his teammates. Sometimes when things are going wrong, as a leader of that team as a captain, you got to step up and rally the troops. You’ve got to go to the offensive line and say, ‘I know it’s tough but let’s keep battling, let’s keep fighting.’ You got to go to the quarterback and say, ‘Hey man, I’m not getting it done today – you got to step it up.’ You got to rally the troops … They need him to do that because last year, he led the league in rushing. So, everybody is looking at him as the top dog. So, if you want to be the top dog, you got to do it on and off the field.”
Zeke is young an immature. He quit on himself and he quit on his team. He's going to (or already has) get his ass chewed off. But young players learn from these mistakes. I think he's going to push harder than he ever has before after that.
Yeah AS I totally agree, I love watching good young players regardless of team and hope he learned his lesson, wish he was on my FFB team.lol
We're doing a keeper league this year. I'm jealous of my friend that has Zeke because he'll be able to keep him for years to come
Scratch that. He can't keep zeke. Apparently we can only keep players outside of the top 3 rounds. Our first year doing keeper league. Last 10 years we just did standard.
So Zeke will be available for the next 5-10 years. Seems fair. I like that kind of league, makes your research seem worthwhile and not rely on 'sports writers, etc.' like many do. I watch a lot of college football and that helps draft day late rounds. Good luck this year.
Jerry Jones: Cowboys Will Stand For The Flag Or “Your Ass Will Be Off The Team” Whoever thought Jerry Jones would be the sane one. WTG, Jerry... fire their butt.
He kinda has to now, the players would be foolish to call him on it. Remember last year when the NFL refused to allow players to wear stickers on their helmets supporting cops? Obviously didn't fit their agenda.
I think the players are going to collectively protest in some way. Players like Dez who think they are invincible will certainly kneel. I'm calling it now
