HowboutthemCowboys Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 i wonder if you ever made some posts mocking the Eagles situation with TO... 1376854[/snapback] You guys are a riot.Last week everybody said what a juggernaut KC would be if they signed T.O.Now they're better because they did'nt?Denver was gonna be so much better with T.O. because Rod Smith is getting old,and Lelie has been a disappointment.But now they've improved by signing noone? So now what,I've been a Cowboys fan my whole life,I just change teams because they signed a guy that I don't care for as a person?The guys a hell of a football player and every casual fan of the NFL knows it.I have'nt read the wording of the contract but I understand that it boils down to a one year deal with incentives for the other two.How can they go wrong?If he has problems like he did in Philly,he's gone.Football won't stop and Jones won't go bankrupt.The Cowboys just got better as a football team.Deal with it.

Wizards Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 Yeah Cowboys look good to pass, they need vast improvement in other areas...like "O" line...."D" ring a bell? Can the Cowboys improve upon their team that has won one playoff game since 1995???? T.O. is a step up in that direction, but so was Bledsoe and Keyshawn......T.O. doesn't block for Bledsoe and he doesn't play "D" so they better address the rest if they want to find success.....JMO and I'm sticking to it !!!

i_am_the_swammi Posted March 19, 2006 Author Share Posted March 19, 2006 """3 year deal....how much $$ I'd be interested to know Jones:"this is not a free lunch for the Cowboys,We made a serious commitment here..." PLEASE TELL ME THEY DID'NT GIVE HIM A TRUCKLOAD OF $$$$$!!!""" anyone know who made this post from another thread??? $10M spent on TO, when the OL is still in the same shambles it was four months ago??? Nice call, Jerry! Address your OL woes by bringing in a $10M WR who won't have time to get open, and limiting your salary cap space for the rest of the offseason.

I don't know why you are pretending he can't now that he is on your team. 1376957[/snapback] Parcells can handle him..Antonio Bryant is a pimple on T.Os ass before someone brings him up..If T.O acts up Id rather have Parcells then anyone else in the nfl to deal with it..O line is being addressed..D is young and getting better. Talent wise on the football field Dallas is a better team..We shall see what happens with T.O..I remember a ton of Keyshawn will be a cancer on dallas thraeds when we signed him and with the exception of 1 game where he had words with Bledsoe we survived him just fine..and this is a guy who was suspended for insubordination 1 year before. I wont defend T.Os actions just because he is a Cowboy now because he acted like a massive tool last year but whats done is done im going to enjoy the best wr in the nfl and hope the hammer doesnt drop and if it does ill let one of the best coaches in the history of the nfl handle it.

I certainly know that now after making the E-Go mistake in 2005. But hey, they're your Cowboys....good luck with that rebuilt OL, and just throw that notion of an OL needing continuity to be effective...40% turnover isn't too much. And toss out the notion of needing good locker-room guys to build a champion (ala Pitt, NE, etc.). For some reason, I guess the Cowboys don't need to follow some of the most basic concepts of football to be champions. They're special.

Come up with a decent argument before posting again,you're wasting everyone's time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm repeating the obvious in saying TO is a malcontent and could ruin your team. Andy Reid is no patsy, so I'm perplexed by the guaranteed feel good attitude by Cowboy fans in signing Mr. Spike The Ball On The Star guy.

Avernus Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 I dunno...I'm not scared of MeO being on Dallas...one way or another, he hasn't finished the last 3 seasons... even last year he was hurt and left the Denver game... he's getting older and not every WR can play into their mid 30's... plus Bledsoe doesn't scare me either....or Julius Jones, but I said that about Julius last year when people tried ranking him in their top 10 off a half a good season against weak competition like a watered down Bears defense... Sherry Glenn better be able to repeat his performances from last year... the only real threatening weapon is Witten and I think he's a top 5 TE...
