Gallup is a quality receiver but he shouldn't be the key to the entire offense opening up.

I look at what other teams have done on offense without spending huge money on multiple receivers and I just feel that Moore is the biggest issue. There just doesn't seem to be any adjustments to his players strengths. Dak is no Mahomes but I feel he is definitely in the 8-12 range and an OC should be able to work with that.
What teams have good offenses without the investment in WR?
Vikings: Jefferson + Adam Thielen + KJ Osborn + Irv Smith Jr.
Miami: Hill + Waddle
Eagles: Brown + DeVonta Smith + Dallas Goedert
Raiders: Adams + Hunter Renfrow + Darren Waller
Bengals: Chase + Tee Higgins + Tyler Boyd
TB: Evans, Godwin & rejuvenated JJ
Bills: Diggs + Gabriel Davis + Jamison Crowder + Dawson Knox + Isaiah McKenzie
Colts: Pittman (and a dominant run game)

On the other side
Green Bay: (looked terrible without Adams)
KC: Mahomes is special (they still have JuJu, Travis Kelce, MVS, invested an early pick in Skyy Moore)
Dallas: Not good
Cardinals: Not good. (hopkins out and Ertz limping)
Most of the teams listed have multiple quality receiving threats and are much deeper/better than what Dallas has. I think I would take every single one of those teams' first options over CD and certainly would take most of their second and third options over Gallup/Noah Brown/whomever else.

From a 30k foot view, most teams should be jealous of Dallas at the WR position. They have their #1 on his rookie deal and a #2 on a deal that doesn't break the cap. They also invested a 3rd round pick on a #3. The question when looking closer is did they miss on their #1 or are they not figuring out how to use him properly?

Yeah I sold KC short. I agree with what you said. The teams in the top section have the top WRs and thus good offenses.

I think you are spot on...hopefully, the latter and hope they figure it out...I am not sold on CeeDee as a one yet though.

I think Ceedee is super talented, he just needs to get his head on straight. He rides the highs and lows of the game too much, and he doesn't always looked focused.

Eagles and Cincinnati are both deep with quality receivers

We don't even know how well Gallup will heal up after a major injury. Lamb needs to toughen up.

Cowboys should go after that stud Drew Lock. Give the Hawks a 2nd round pick.

Ceedee lamb is not a #1 receiver, they still can't run the ball, and the defense is good enough to keep them in it but not win single handedly

May want to compare Sean Payton's career record (including playoff record) with Mike McCarthy's before getting too enamored and giving up great picks this franchise needs. Hint - It's not really any different.

I'm not sure that when SP gets used to the studio life that he'd want to put up with Jerry's crap

I was giving the pros of Payton a few weeks back so allow me to give a different perspective that feels like the right one at the moment.

We've only had 1 guy come through this organization in recent years and do an incredible job coaching... Dan Quinn.

Even with Dak back, our current talent has quickly turned us into a "win with defense" team. Roll with Quinn and let him bring in a new offensive coordinator.

I'd have zero problems with that. Plus you don't lose picks going after a coach.

Not seeing it. Only game I saw was Texans/Denver on there too.

Huge win! Would've taken a 1-1 after with a fully healthy squad.

Gotta say, Tyler Smith is working out 100x better than I would have thought at LT. So many guys I trust did not think he would be a good NFL OT back during the draft. I was pissed when they took him because of those opinions.

The guy has been good enough in many ways and in other ways shows freakish ability to set his feet and redirect the monster across from him.

Pleasantly surprised is probably an understatement.

PS: Micah is going to be the NFL defensive mvp this year. Unbelievable talent.

I feel like the Bengals bought into their own hype just a bit to start the year.

Very surprising win. I still don't think a team led by Cooper Rush is going anywhere even if the defense is legit. Maybe we can hang in there until Dak is healthy but I think he's gonna be out for easily half the year

Dak will be back having missed maybe 4-5 games

Giants are beatable. Philly is beatable. Some of the teams on the schedule aren't world beaters outside of the rams.

As much as we like to fault him, Rush is a gamer. 2-0 with 2 game winning drives. Giants are fake news. They've played terrible teams thus far.

When the backup QB comes in and goes 2 for 2 in the past 11 months we have nothing to gripe about.

The only Cowboys backup QB to outperform Rush In the past 20 years was Romo.

I think the radio was saying prob 4 games. If they can get one of the next three to go 2-2, I like where they would be.

The back part of the schedule this year is very winnable.

The NFC is there for the taking if the Cowboys can somehow survive these games without Dak and slip into the playoffs. Outside of Tampa Bay, the best teams in the league are in the AFC.

"Okay guys, we need ideas for a new analyst. Someone with skins on the wall, respected by fans, charismatic personality..."

"Say no more, boss. Jason Garrett."

To be fair, Garrett was calling USFL games and I thought he was pretty good.
