It's a shame they couldn't' have beaten the shitass Cardinals or they would still be alive. That was a horrible loss. I'm OK not making the playoffs, because it was highly unlikely anyway. But they now look like a borderline playoff team quality wise.
Cowboys are currently sitting at 13 and 27 with their first round picks. They need to keep refining their game and competing, but they also should be developing young players as much as possible. Don't risk a worse injury with Ceedee if he's cleared. Start Flournoy next week and keep polishing him and even get Mingo more time, though his Cowboys future is almost certainly coming to an end. What a wasted pick that was. Activate Blue and have him return kicks to see if he can replace Turpin and his contract. The young defensive guys are already getting more time, so hopefully they can avoid injury and keep getting better.
It has been fun for the last few weeks. I keep thinking if they had just squeaked into the playoffs, maybe won a first round game, it would be a classic NFL Films kind of year for a comeback story. Shame they couldn't pull it off, but it's OK.
It's gonna be tough to fill remaining needs going into next year. I doubt if they kick efferpus to the curb and get a higher end DC. So it will probably go back to being the usual first round playoff choke kick in the balls, or a major injury or two that shits all over the season.
