Jerry Richardson called me this morning! Not a joke

I'm frankly a little shocked at how easily you all are believing this.

You REALLY think Jerry Richardson would casually be badmouthing Jerry Jones to a random fan? Knowing how he operates, does that sound like something he would do? You also think he would admit that he was the one making the personnel decisions now rather than Marty Hurney by his supposed statement about "going young"?

Talk about gullible...

Your team is crap and in complete shambles. Rather than call your head coach into your office and chew him out or have a meeting with players to try and tell them that it'll be ok long term, you call a random know-nothing fan (no disrespect intended OP) and give him your mission statement.

I no longer wonder why my favorite sports franchise is currently in the toilet.

Is that you Foxy? It's ok, you already said it, we know it isn't your fault. :thumbsup:

What I don't understand is that, if this is true, why any of you find it comforting. You feel better now knowing that, faced with a potential year of no football at all, your team's owner says screw it we might as well give up on this year too. Meanwhile other teams around the league are doing everything that they can to make a run at the superbowl this year. We've seen the Bears drastically overpay Peppers, Moss return to Minnesota, the Redskins bring in #5, Bill Parcells sign the a troublesome Brandon Marshall, and Ozzie Newsome get himself a damn probowl receiving core. Not to mention that every single American with a TV set knows everything the Jets have done. How many other teams in the league have decided to do what we did?

The worst part about this is the way the draft was handled knowing that the gameplan going into this year was "well I'm sure we wont be the worst team..." Knowing you do not have a first round pick this year and would likely have a decent one in the next draft, you decide to take a QB with question marks in the 2nd round. Rather than seeing what you had in the guy on the roster that you had already named your starter and paid accordingly, you use your highest pick in the draft to take a guy that every other team had passed on. Even if Moore did play the way he ended up doing, it's not like you were planning on contending anyway and you could hopefully more adequately address the QB position in your next draft with a high first round pick.

Then, AGAIN knowing we would probably have a decent 2nd round pick next draft, we decide to trade THAT pick away for a QB from Appalachian State who can maybe play WR and maybe catch a punt because, let's face it, we've seen him throw pretty well in the FCS.

Maybe instead of calling a few pissed off fans here and there, JR should call Fox and tell him to start the QB he drafted for what is going to be a higher price than the guy that's in there now. Oh wait, he's returning punts now? Oh, he couldn't catch a punt so now he's playing wide receiever? Wow, I would have never thought of that. I guess that's why they make the big bucks.

how do you figure...? AE is clearly a pick made as a future investment in someone they thought had great talent. Taking him indicates a desire to develop him, which fits right in with the "building the team through the draft" and "going with young, talented players".

I still don't follow your logic. Ok, so "we handled the draft poorly." I would agree trading that pick sucked, but hey, it happens. How exactly does that lead to "call Fox and start him"? If the pick was that bad, why would you want him starting?

I think you missed the sarcasm in that post. I was getting more at the stupidity of the Clausen pick relative to the fact that we drafted a guy who played QB in college at a price that will likely be higher than the Clausen pick.

As I mentioned a few posts back, the problem with the Clausen pick was that we used our highest pick in the draft to take a guy with question marks that every other team had passed on. That's fine and all if you think he has potential or whatever, however we already had a guy on our roster that at the time was our fully-supported starter going into the season. Knowing that we weren't seriously planning on contending this year, why not give Moore the reigns and see how it shakes out. The best case scenario, he pans out and you've also addressed another of your teams many concerns with a 2nd round pick. The worst case scenario, he flops and you end up with a high first round pick in the next draft that you can use to legitimately address your QB concerns. Oh, and guess what, you still addressed an additional concern with a 2nd round pick!

The problem with the Armanti pick is that, again knowing that we weren't seriously planning on contending, we traded away a pick that we were well aware was likely to end up higher than anything we had in this years draft. On top of that, we did it for a guy we want to play wide receiever who played QB in college at Appalachian State. I'm not sure that drafting FCS convertable projects high in the second round is the best way to "build your team through the draft".

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By JawnyBlaze · Posted

      It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed.

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
