Blue Eyed Devil

he play that ended the game against Seattle came when the score was still close. Dallas only trailed by a manageable 1-score in the 3rd quarter down 7-13. However, on a 2nd and 7 the Seahawks,...

In any loss there are many bad things that happen. Today I've seen people discussing a wide variety of subjects related to why they're feeling so down after this Cowboys loss. Allow me to...

Thought I'd compile a post full of notes about the game against the Giants from the perspective of being in the stadium. A lot of these notes have to do with the secondary play since I tend to...

If you've been reading my posts in the comments sections about Cowboys/Giants over the last couple weeks you'll note that in the discussion of our secondary I keep coming back to 1 player that no...

The last two years have not been kind to the Dallas Cowboys. In 2010 we were a losing football team, a 6-10 team. In 2011 this team was the definition of average with an 8-8 record and only one...

The Cowboys have more project WRs than they know what to do with. Kevin Ogletree, Andre Holmes, Dwayne Harris, Danny Coale, Cole Beaseley, Raymond Radway, and to a lesser degree Tim Benneford are...

This is the final edition of a 3 part series on how we may be witnessing the very early stages of a new Cowboys - let's not call it a dynasty, but a window being opening. In Part 1 we explored how...

Football is an interesting game. Most people only consider the current season but football is really a long game. Interestingly, many GMs only play the game for season in front of them. They...

Not all positions on the football field are created equal. Who would you rather have on your team: Demarcus Ware or Carl Nicks? No one doubts Nicks' supremacy at guard, but I think we'll all...

How do you build a strong defense? Traditional thinking on the subject is that consistency of talent is more important for defense than it is for offense. The thinking stems from the idea that the...

Draft the best player available. In NFL draft discussions it's a very common philosophy. In fact, it's so common everyone agrees with it. Who doesn't want the best player available? So if it's...

Wes Bunting now rates Alameda Ta'amu as the #11 best player in this draft. For those unfamiliar, Ta'amu is a big muscular physical 335lb player with a motor that doesn't quit. He is not a fat...

Everyone agrees it takes 3 years to fully grade a draft class. But that hasn't stopped us from judging before, I even issued snap-judgments on the 2011 draft without seeing them even in an NFL...

During the 2010 training camp One.Cool.Customer wrote an article outlining several metrics by which one can predict a team's success in the regular season. The one that stood out to me and one I...

The Cowboys defense was bad again in 2011. But with everyone focusing on the draft a debate has emerged whether draft picks and free agent priority should be given to the offense or the defense. ...

As reported by AdamJT13 of Cowboyszone.com. He's proven reliable over the past few years so I have no reason to doubt their authenticity.

I really liked the Rob Ryan hiring but at the end of the season it's time to look at data and ask hard questions. Today I want to generate conversation by asking a pretty hard one: Is Rob Ryan's...

They say it takes 3 years to grade a draft. This year marks year #3 for the class of 2009. As of this week we now have conclusive data on the draft classes of 2006-2009 to grade out each player...

I'm beginning to believe Romo is a classic tragic hero.  What makes a tragic hero is that the thing which makes the hero great also keeps him from ever attaining his ultimate goal. With Romo you...

First off, let us dispel any myths: this is a rebuilding year.  A team does not start 3 rookies (essentially) on its offensive line when it believes it’s making a super bowl run.  A team does...

  GARRET YOU BLOODY BLOODY BLOODY IDIOT!

It is possible that trying to draw logic from this year's draft and FA period may be the futile attempts of fans to bring rationale to an inherently illogical situation.  Akin to how Redskins fans...

After a terrible 6-10 failure of a season, the most embarrasing season in two-decades, the rotten core of this team was exposed.  Picking high, Dallas needed multiple players to come in and make...

Here's 4 games on youtube of Bruce Carver.  In almost every snap you will either see him blow a coverage or go for tackles in the most pathetic way possible. Then there's this: "How strict are...

Stare into the Goose's crystal ball below.

Rick Gosselin has created his first mock draft of the year and mocks Tyron Smith to Dallas.  Dallas is particularly bad with leaks, and has leaked out all along that they are interested in Tyron...

It's interesting.  By definition there can only be five top-5 left tackles in the NFL.  Yet, every draft class there are multiple tackles that are described as being "potential pro-bowl",...
