The quality of Newton's reporting matches the quality of our starting QB. I'm surprised to see Bryce Young supporters in this thread (you know who you are) and others are calling for Newton's firing while defending Bryce Young to the hilt. It's nothing if not ironic.

David Newton never won a heisman in journalism.

he has done it for a long long time, who is to say he isnt good?

Let’s see this week he asked Evero the same question about DB pass rushing 3 times in a row in which Evero had to directly tell him “I feel like I’ve answered this question.” Then he posted our RG Moton will miss this game. Now he asked a player if his dead dad will be cheering for the Cowboys. This is all just in one week.

again, I am not his employer, I dont follow his stuff or read any of it including social media, but he has been employed long enough where someone thinks he is doing a good job, not disagreeing he isnt an moron but I am not calling for anyones job for being a moron when it really doesnt affect me

Journalist report team info to the fans and the fans are the ones calling for his job. They have every right to do so. His employer can make their decisions accordingly. I’ve been in the work force for long enough to know longevity doesn’t always equal good performance. I’m not sure where that is coming from.

That’s what the fans are wondering openly now. Why is he still employed? I could care less how long he has been doing it. Why is this such a struggle with you? Are fans not allowed to be upset with a bad product? I mean that’s your whole persona here on the Huddle.

Sure man.  Im not upset.  There are other people to follow.   Continuing to read his stuff and get upset is pretty much on you at this point he's not a good reporter as we know obviously but I'm not signing a stupid internet poll to get him fired.  Pretty useless all things considered.  Again someone at espn likes his work

Jesus, what a mess... Does David Newton have dementia as bad as Jerry Jones does or something?

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By lumbeecheraw75 · Posted

      overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
