He is a dominant player, killing his own bank account

Which is sad. But he is trying it seems.

I root for him.......along with a discount we get for his services if we so choose in the future.

Not sounding good for Rico

Only way they keep him is if they go with 4 TE's. They aren't cutting the other 3

Yeah, I think that is pretty much beyond obvious at this point and of course should be the case. He is fighting against OL, DL and WR depth. He has to make enough "Wow" plays to offset just not knowing what to do. We keep hearing this over and over. The guy has gotta just learn the Offense and his job. What disappointed me the most was his comment about a month or two ago when he basically sounded like he was not only expecting to never being a good blocker, but seemed fine with it. He also doesn't look as fast this year which will hurt him. But, he has to keep making plays like last night when he just stole the ball from the defender for a big play. That is what he can give a team. I think it will come down to the wire for him. I'm not sure any of the guys we would keep over him will play much, but if he can't play STs he must step up the next two games. I'm rooting for him.

Follow up tweets are good.

Follow up tweets are good.

that's pretty funny


I think we all want Rico to get the snaps with the first team to see what he can do and hope he can do some similar things against the other teams starters. I just hope it doesn't end with Dak in the hospital

 

[jarntt]

Now we have 4 WRs sitting out.
Austin - hamstring
Beasley - groin
Noah Brown - hamstring
D Thompson - achilles

Maybe we run a lot of 2/3 TEs sets this week.

Obviously for Austin and Beasley they just need to get healthy so no huge deal. But the other two need to get back quick or it will hurt their chance to make the team.

DL roster spots getting tough for guys like Ealy and Tapper especially once Irving is back. A. Woods starting to look like a lock or is it just me?

Didn't Garrett say Collins was supposed to practice last week?

Jerry Jones: No need for Dak, Zeke to play in remaining preseason games; surprised Dez Bryant is not on a team

Coach Jerry speaks.

 

[ROMOTOOWENS]

Impressive.

 

[cowboycolors]

Impressive.

Guy has a arm just needs developing
We will see

 

[ROMOTOOWENS]

No 70 or 72 - this is hopefully expected.

I still think the D is much improved though

[ROMOTOOWENS]

I think Thompson dressed today too.

Holy Shit Tank. How stupid is this??

FRISCO, Texas – It’s one thing to hear optimistic reports about Zack Martin’s condition. It’s another thing to ask him personally: does he plan on being ready for the season opener?

“Oh yeah, no question,” Martin said on Thursday afternoon.

Practice Recap: Zack Martin On The Mend; Notes

At the bottom of the link it talks about Jaylons instincts were on display


I see this as a big plus since last year he seemed to react late on too many plays.

Holy Shit Tank. How stupid is this??

Didn't like that. Taco also took a swing on the back side. But, you can't see it from this view. I don't have a problem at all with the first guys getting into it, that's Football. But the 3rd man in against your own team is Bull Shit.

 

[jarntt]

Don't be surprised to see a trade with the Giants for one of their interior OL backups or perhaps us picking up whomever they cut. They have some veterans competing for backup jobs and can't keep everyone and a couple of them have G/C flexibility

 

[ArlingtonCowboys100]

Damn. My expectations for the offense has been lowered because of the injuries/sickness affecting the OL. This team is snakebit
