Dallas already has a reputation of being a team of Pre-Madonna’s…

 

Adding a(nother) mercurial assholish Pre-Madonna WR to the mix ain’t gonna change that rep

So, like 1982 or so? Do you go by when she became incredibly popular or when she was grinding it out as a relative unknown?

Google “George Pickens bad plays”. There is lots of evidence this guy sucks ass and is a loser.

You can do that for basically every player. Including Lamb and Mahomes.

So once again, Jerry gets another player that will be problematic on the team.  Yay

Huh?  They've basically spent most of the offseason getting boy scouts in here.

Forget the behavior issues. This is why it’s probably going to end up being a stupid trade. 

Not so fast. Once you take into account the future contract or potential behavior issues it could end up being a terrible move. 

if he's horrible or bad here there won't be a contract. There WILL, however, be a pretty damned good Comp Pick coming, maybe even a 3rd rounder, which makes this trade basically a wash if he fucks himself out of Dallas.

Pickens has also been in pretty shitty WR rooms as well, not a lot on the opposite side to require much attention. Lots of come and go dudes that get some false expectations after a decent game or two, but turn out to be JAG receivers. Now he has Lamb, until he has his arm ripped off his shoulder. 

Cowboys need somebody he trusts in the locker room to get him to chill.

Yeah and they spent all offseason getting "the right kind of guys".  Adding a dawg and an asshole might actually be a good thing.

This is true. As much as fans like to trash Dak, he's getting a huge qb upgrade throwing to him. And I don't mean Joe Milton. 

Cowboys still need a backup qb. 

Be the best QB he's played with, and that even if you think Dak is Barely a Top 15-20 QB.

I don’t seem to recall a ton of locker room drama considering some of the shadier characters we’ve had over the years. The circus usually comes from Jerry and his yes men. Im good with this trade. We need a damn RB now if Shotty has any chance of exceeding my expectations which are pretty damn low.

Exactly.

They drafted "Good guys" and signed "good guys"  This is a shot at taking a very talented WR, who produced over 900+ yard every season with dog shit QB and a new OC every single year he's been there, and seeing if it works.

Worst case, they get one year from him, he's great, and the open market overpays him to the point they get a 3rd round comp pick for him(so basically trade a 3rd for him and get one back) OR he sucks, they don't resign him, and they STILL get a 4th/5th Comp pick for taking a swing.

In no way this is a bad trade unless he murder Lamb/Dak.

OK, the price wasn't terrible for the quality of player. He will make a big difference on offense, if he's not suspended or something.

Great talent, total asshole. If it were a possible deep playoff season ahead I would like it a lot better. Or if the Cowboys had a top quality playmaking RB locked up for a few years, I would like it a lot better.

Not sure I want him around long term unless he has a total transformation as a team guy and can tone down his anger and disruptive behavior. At least he's not accuse of sexual assault, drunkass hit and run or something...yet. Maybe not being in Pittsburgh will be good for him.

I'm excited to see him make some plays, though.

They got Blue

Keep the TE in to block and you got Blue, Turpin, CD, and Pickens running routes. One of those dudes gonna get open. Will Dak be able to find em and get it to them? We’ll see. But somehow I’m optimistic about Dallas on offense for once. 

they also got Phil Mafah who’s a beast RB

they got Dane Fowler and another rusher 

they drafted another inside backer and an outside backer that are good

Really they just need their secondary to stay healthy and they will be ok there too

Can he play in the NFL? I saw a player who couldn’t be trusted as a ball carrier. They stopped handing the ball off to him, especially leftZ He’s smallish and couldnt pass protect real well. He could catch out of the backfield. That’s not enough.

Blue is arguably their 3rd best weapon as of right now.

And what position will he play? Because he can’t run between the tackles and he cant run left. And he won’t be able to pass protect in the pros.

Why do people say stuff like this?  The offense was very very good 2 years ago when Dak was 2nd in MVP voting. And the two years prior when Dak was healthy.  Pretty much any year outside of 2017(zeke suspensions/Dez/Witten declining like rocks and Twill sucking AND the OL was a mash unit on the left side) they've been a good to very good offense when Dak is healthy and the OL isn't shit.

Yea I know right!  Aggy has won a conference more recently than the cowboys. 

Dammit... well... I do know that no Panthers fans have recently come out of the closet as Eagles or Cowboys fans because of the welcome and kindness received by those team's fans while visiting. Also, Eagle and Cowboys are severely lacking in national heros.

So is Jalen Tolbert.... arguably, and that doesn't bring me any solace.  Blue has some juice but he's a COP who didn't break many tackles.  Pickens with his head on straight has this offense on the fringe of being top 12.  Pouty Pickens and we're back to hoping CeeDee doesn't get hurt as there isn't much else.  We still have no depth at the skill positions.

Are the ratings struggling?

They didn't need Dallas on opening night...Jax/Miami would bring ratings.

They don't have to have Dallas/KC...Dallas and the Cardinals would be huge.

And now it's been announced that Dallas plays at Washington on Christmas Day at 1pm on Netflix. A real place to see and be seen.

Y’all just gonna love that fucking netflix shit. It was the worst experience last Christmas. Finally ended up using my iptv service, which at least let me in. Netflix kept forcing me to watch from the beginning, like pre-pre-game beginning. 3 hours before the game.

For me, it’s the OL. They were bad last season and they need a lot of work to be good this year.

@Wash and @NYG in the nice December/ January weather of the Atlantic seaboard should be fun.

NFL wastes a lot f potentially great matchups by showcasing big ratings teams opening week. It's stupid. People don't need a sexy matchup for game 1. They just want a return to football.

The first couple of regular season games are basically like preseason games when NFL had useful preseason. Teams are a total clusterfuck. 

When I am commissioner my rule will be zero division games in the first two weeks, and particular division matchups should be separated by at least 4 weeks, first half and second half games. Shouldn't be that hard to do. There should be weeks where virtually every NFL game is a divisional matchup, and vice versa. 

Get back to giving a rat's ass about the integrity of the game over what gets more casual shitfaces to watch NFL on some shitty streaming platform they are whoring for.

And fuck a bunch of Christmas games on Netflix...tar and feather that piece of shit Goodell..

If the tackles are still shitty, the OL will still be shitty. 

They are betting the farm on Guyton taking a massive leap forward and Steele finally living up to his salary.

Agreed. Exactly what I was saying. Could be Jax vs Arizona and it's going to do ratings.

https://cowboyswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/cowboys/2025/06/26/george-pickens-pittsburgh-youth-camp-cancel/84370315007/

George Pickens is catching flak in Pittsburgh again, even as he's catching passes from his new quarterback.

The wide receiver, who was traded to the Dallas Cowboys in early May after three volatile seasons with the Steelers, was scheduled to be the star attraction at the George Pickens Youth Football Camp at Pittsburgh's Highmark Stadium this coming weekend.

Despite previously telling campers that he would still attend the event even after changing teams, Pickens has now decided not to participate at all, according to an email sent to attendees' families this week.

The camp has been postponed until July 20 and will now feature Pittsburgh tight end Pat Freiermuith and possibly other Steelers players. The organizers are not offering refunds.

Dallas still hasn’t played in a CCS. Jerry is kept alive by a mix of stem cell slurries, cocaine, and blow jobs from meth addicted hookers.

And somehow, they're still the biggest most profitable team in sports and talked about WAY too much in spite of that.

 

This looks amazing, and is exactly why the Cowboys are a media IP more than a Football Team.

Agreed, at this time. It’s all Jerry has to hold onto right now.

From a business side, he’s raking it in. Football side, not so much.

I just can’t wrap my head around that being ok as the status quo, when also being better at the actual product would make so much more.

Sad state of affairs, but maybe he really doesn’t care as much about that as he does just working with his kids and family.

We’ll never really know, but y’all get props for sticking it out.
