Well, the season is officially over so let's start talking about what the Cowboys need to do to end this drought.

He should start by selling the team

got to get a pass rush with just the DL and maybe the secondary will look better

This years playoffs/super bowl proved, once again, just how important your coaches are. Just look at Detroit in Year 1 without Ben Johnson vs. Chicago with him.

Schotty definitely gets an A for his work with the offense in year 1. I'm very optimistic that we, finally, hired the right guy on D. I'm optimistic this team can compete next year... heck, we somewhat competed this year with a historically bad defense.

Still need to have success this offseason bringing in/keeping the right guys and letting the wrong ones go. Our GM has been 50/50 at best in this sorta stuff and that's not good enough.

Let's go all in Jerry!

How much cap space could each NFL team free up with simple restructures?

1. DAL $131M
2. DET $128M
3. KC $109M
...
32. PHI $0.2M 😅

Broadus was saying the other day that he does feel like the Cowboys will go after at least 1 impact free agent. Said he was encouraged how the organization (the Jones's) let the coach handle the DC search. He thinks they are going to give the same coaches the resources to make the team better.

He's also under the impression that the Pickens franchise tag was floated early so that teams can talk to Dallas at the combine about a possible trade. He doesn't see the Cowboys working out a long term deal (same agent as Parsons) so it will either be the tag or we'll let somebody else pay him and we'll take a 1st rounder. Heck, even a 2nd rounder is a win considering we paid a 3rd for him.

Did anybody have "Trump will pardon Nate Newton" on their off-season bingo card? I did not see that coming.

Put that man in the HoF now that his record is clean!

Let you know after the draft.

Bradley Chubb released. Would love to kick the tires on him.
