I surely hope Sam has some kind of $$ left to start over on and wish him well. Hopefully he does not return to the quick $$$ and moves ahead with his life in a positive way.

Good luck Sam

Agreed, but I doubt he has a penny to his name.

Most likely and he does not have the personality of a Nate Newton to come back as a celebrity guest host on radio and local TV. Maybe Jerry will help him behind the scenes who knows

I didn't watch any of this video but Pollard played in the exact same scheme and was perhaps the best RB in the NFL last year. I wonder how he accounts for that.

People like to just blame Moore for everything. Sometimes it's as simple as it's just the players...

Zeke lost the burst. The film don't lie. Law Nation in this case I don't agree with him acting Like Zeke is the old Zeke. Zeke is clearly past his prime. There were at least 3 games that Pollard took over. They lose those games if we did not have Pollard. Cut Zeke loose. Draft a RB in round 3 or 4. Bring Pollard back. Pollard needs to be used as a playmaker in this offense. You create a Dozen plays for Pollard and these plays need to be designed to get Pollard into space. Pollard IMO is a perfect fit in a WC offense.

hurd also was not that great a player for the Cowboys. Nate Newton on the other hand was a great player

Correct Hurd was a marginal player for the Boys

Hmmm. We could see some changes. McCarthy has a good point. It could be argued the Green Bay and Jacksonville games would have been different if the Cowboys ran the ball with the lead instead the Cowboys kept throwing.and the results were bad

Mike McCarthy: Kellen Moore wants to light the scoreboard up, I want to run the damn ball

Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy says he and his former offensive coordinator, Kellen Moore, don't always have the same vision for what an offense should do.

Maybe McCarthy is better than many thought here. Not great but maybe Jerry got lucky again.

I'll tell you something that's kind of a scary deal for next season. I was doing a mock draft for the Cowboys online and decided to do one for the Eagles considering they have the #10 overall in addition to their other first. Not good...

I dunno it takes a better mix of talent on offense. You could win today with the 90’s Cowboys but we don’t have the 90’s Cowboys. And you can’t go in a shell when you get the lead but that does not mean 3 straight passes and punt either.
I think we used to call for a balanced attack and take what the defense is giving run short pass or long ball.

90's Cowboys would obliterate teams today lol. SF made the NFCCG with a 7th round, 3rd string rookie QB because they could run the ball and play defense. The Cowboys could run it better than SF, throw it better, had a better defense, and a HOF QB. That's a joke

I was being modest those 3 SB teams were some of the best ever to suit up.

I watched Pollards big plays from 2022.
Two thoughts:
Pollard is a must. Wonder if he'd take 3 for 25 with 18 guaranteed.
Steele was a REAL good run blocker before he went down.

Totally agree on both players. I remember how horrible Steele was in his first season. Of course he was an UDFA who was forced to start week 1 due to injury so not too unexpected, but he has come a long way

I think we are looking at $10M per for Pollard. The going rate for top RBs likely would be $13M plus (CMC way above that). Him being in a split situation should save us a few million. Hopefully it comes in closer to the number you wrote which I do think is fair for a guy who won’t be asked to be a bell cow. If he does want $10M or more I lean towards just keeping the tag on him and seeing how he bounces back from injury And revisiting next year.

Why I avoid any and all Jerry talk… Exhibit A.
