DEZ ABOUT TO COOK THIS YR

 

[licensed to ball]

Since Oxnards only 45 minutes away from me I've been wanting to to check out the camp, maybe get a few autographs and such. But I haven't been able to get off of work


Maybe on Friday but I'll see. I'll let you guys know if I do

Your sig says SD fan? 

Not judging, do you. 

I'm not quite sure what it is you're trying to imply? Yes I'm a Charger fan... But I'm also an NFL football fan.

That's cool. Just all the SD fans I know HATE Dallas.

Props to you for heading over, I'm jealous.

Local NBC station in Dallas just showed a piece on Dez.
Dude had 50 receptions in the second half of the season.

GUYS

I'm so pumped for this season. Hopefully I'm not disappointed by the end of it.

 

[mr s j king]

It feels so good to not see Felix Jones tippin a** in a Cowboys uniform.

 

[mr s j king]

Randle looks like a quality back up.
He was a top tier back in college and looks like he will make the transition over to the league.

 

[blackboyfly]

All the backs look good.

 

[thachosen123]

Randle looks good, but so do the 3 guys ahead of him.

I like what I seen from Dunbar & Tanner. Tanner will be our redzone back

 

[mr s j king]

All the backs look good.

Finally!

 

[Ox.]

for the first time in a few seasons i'm actually pretty hyped for this season. the whole team played great today, if we stay healthy 

 

[kid fiasco]

Missed the game, saw highlights. Like the defense bringing pressure. Wait till we have our starters.. OH LAWD!

There's depth, that's the biggest improvement.

Obviously have to see more but I think Safety might actually be a strong point this season.. Only position I honestly really worry about is Oline. I think the line will be at least average this year but if anyone except Frederick goes down the line will be garbage again.

WR
Dez/Miles/Williams/Harris/Beasley/Armstrong

DLine DWare/Spencer/Hatcher/Ratliff/Wilber/Bass/Selvie lol)

RB
Murray/Dunbar/Tanner/Randle

CB
Carr/Claiborne/Scandrick/Moore/Webb

Safety
Chruch/Allen/Johnson/Wilcox

Linebacker
Lee/Carter/Durant/Sims/Holloman

Tight End
Witten/Hanna/Esckobar/Rosario

With a reliable kicker and a QB who throws for 4300 yards and at least 25+ touchdowns every year .

Even the coaching staff is deep. Four guys with head coaching experience.

Rod Marinelli is viewed as the best position coach in the NFL by alot of people and Kiffens Tampa D was top 5 in the league for over a decade. Kiffen/Marinelli is the best 1-2 defensive coaching tandem in the league imo.

Have to give JG and JJ credit. 3 years ago the Cowboys were one of the three oldest teams in the league with severely overpaid players at every position. We're one of the youngest now and the older/overpaid guys have their replacements already on the roster (Esckobar/Webb/Randle/Williams) If the rookies even come close to the current expectations the Cowboys will have great talent for the next decade+

The team has been great in the draft since Garrett took over too. Fredrick looked like a monster tonight.

Telling yall, the Kool-aid taste different this year

this.

i noticed a big difference in our secondary, safetys and linebackers weren't being over run like previous years, they're a lot quicker and stronger and agree on the coaching depth and experience. 

 

[mr s j king]

Sean Lee may have 6 interceptions this year.
This defensive unit will attack all game and that's what you have to do.
I don't want to see DeMarcus Ware running down field covering tight ends.
All that does is tire him out anyway.

 

[essential1]

I'm always excited about the season.. Up until week 5 then I battle depression

I thought about something this morning.
If Monte Kiffin was hired as Defensive Coordinator for the Packers or the Patriots, everyone would say Kiffin is the "Obe One Konobe" of defensive coordinators.
But because it's America's team it's labeled a "questionable hire".
This dude created a defense and won a Super Bowl with it, and now he has the best pass rusher in the league!
Kiffins defense has never been the problem.
It was always the offensive side of the ball that made his defense look bad.
And our offense will be much better this year.
Get ready for an action packed season fellas!

 

[slicknick951]

Im ready for this season. All ive wanted for years is a commitment to the run and i think this may be the year. Our offence is built to put up points and our d can do its job

It's that Dallas bias. Obviously I expect it but it's annoying when the media drives home these false themes and then the average NFL fan runs with it. Kiffen said this was the most talented D he's ever coached, but because he's with the Cowboys all of a sudden what he did with some average college recruits at USC is more relevant than the ten plus years he coached in the NFL. And people ignore Marenelli. Anyone who watched Chicago knows that a big part of the success they had forcing turnovers was because of the techniques Marinelli taught. And EVERYONE, fans, media alike talked about how bad Garret was at play calling and how he needed to be a walk-around coach. The Cowboys do that and now Jerry Jones is trying to undermine Garrett

But like i aaid I expect it. People will hate on the Cowboys no matter what they do. People on Twitter a couple days ago were talking about how over rated Aikman was because he didn't produce monster stats. Yet the very same people bash Romo for not having playoff success / Superbowl wins.

 

[mr s j king]

D Ware is going to act bad this year. He's going back to his roots.
Hands on the ground and str8 bull rushing. I see 20-24 sacks easy.
The offense will be top 5. I'm picking us to win it all this year.

 

[blackboyfly]

^^^^ Now I don't know about all that homie would be tho, wish I had your faith.

Do think the team will shut some people up this year tho. They'll win a playoff game.

 

[N41D]

Could see Ware easily approaching 20 sacks again.. He said he'll have tons more chances to just put his head down and attack.
