Vanderjagt Signs with Cowboys (merged)
 

The Cowgirls found themselves a new kicker...lets just hope we keep ahead by more than three the whole game! But in all seriousness, this isnt good for us cause love him or hate him, Vanderjagt can kick.

I hope this isnt a duplicate, I even did a search, so if it is please dont yell!

Cowboys sign Vanderjagt
 

The Cowboys sign one of the most accurate kickrers in the NFL solving their kicking problems of the past years in signing Vanderjagt fro the Colts. I thought I heard this on ESPN and found on their site.

O'boy.....things just got stickier in the NFC East. This to me is a bigger signing than T.O.

They are having quite an offseason themselves.

That sucks!:hater: I still say we sweep them agian next year.:point:

I love the wording from PFT's Wed. Night One-Liners:

"Another day, another confirmed asshole closes in on a deal with the Cowboys."

Re: Cowboys sign Vanderjagt
 

Say what you want, this guy will win at least two or three close ones for them.

Re: Cowboys sign Vanderjagt
 

I don't think he kicks off

Re: Vanderjagt Signs with Cowboys (merged)
 

he wasn't comign here, but it sucks he had to go there... i was quite happy with the dallas/jose cortez experiment.

last year the colts had to keep an extra guy to do kickoffs i think (or their punter did it?). He hates kickoffs, but i don't remember the reason why.

Re: Vanderjagt Signs with Cowboys (merged)
 

this is a good signing. TO is a stupid signing. I don't even care if he is good. He is going to destroy that team if it isn't this year it is the next.

Yeah, this isn't good. The Cowboys offense and special teams will be much better next season.

We'll still beat 'em twice again next year - if we can break the Thanksgiving-at-Dallas jinx.

Re: Vanderjagt Signs with Cowboys (merged)
 

My prediction: either TO gets in Vanderjagt's face after a miss, or V. says something to the press about TO first. Let the drama begin.

You know, I'm calling for a split this year.

I can see that; I'd love to rip off 12 in a row against the Cowpies, though.

I really don't expect TO to be a distraction like many of us are hoping.

They'll go 10-6 and finish second to us in the division.

Re: Vanderjagt Signs with Cowboys (merged)
 

wow, the cowboys sign TO and a kicker and now theyre favs for the NFC east? give me a break.

Re: Vanderjagt Signs with Cowboys (merged)
 

No one here said they are favs, but you better believe they're gonna be tough.

Hell they lost two or three last year on kicking alone. That part of the equation is settled now.

Re: Vanderjagt Signs with Cowboys (merged)
 

Just another dysfunctional player added to a growingly dysfunctional team.

Just wait until he comments on how Tuna's speedos are a distraction in the locker room because T.O. won't stop talking about them...or some other inane firing off of his yap.

I'm telling ya, don't count this guy out this time. He essentially got what he wanted as far as a contract.

I think the most you'll hear from him is degrading other teams/players.

more than once. he says stupid things and he doesn't do kickoffs. prima kicker

Re: Vanderjagt Signs with Cowboys (merged)
 

Did you guys notice that we've got the worst FG pct in the 4th qtr and OT over the last two years? Reason #1A that we should dump John Hall (reason 1B is his cap number).

And while Vanderjerk may be the "most accurate kicker in NFL history" he's got to be the least clutch kicker around. Its one thing for your kicker to blame the head coach and qb for the losing, but when that same kicker keeps shanking the F out of make-able kicks then there's no way he can wear that "most accurate" monicker. The kick against Pittsburgh to send it into overtime, I've seen guys in the Dr. Pepper halftime challenge get closer than "the most accurate kicker."

This is a great move for the Cowboys. Can't wait for Vanderjerk to blame the wideout for him missing yet another kick.

let me clarify, all the media people did. i dont see how they even kept games close. honestly i think its a wash because their offense wasnt great last year and TO improved them and their offense is just a year older and worse off.

Re: Vanderjagt Signs with Cowboys (merged)
 

For all of you who keep saying we'll sweep the Cowboys [U]next[/U] year, I hope you mean [U]this[/U] year. I'm actually hoping for a tight division race with us sweeping them and barely winning the division. Then we can meet them in the playoffs, where the 'boys have never beaten us.

Re: Vanderjagt Signs with Cowboys (merged)
 

why does everyone want a tight division race? tell me youd rather us take every game down to the wire rather than wiping our asses with each team in the divison?

yeah, he called out Manning & Dungy, said they were nice guys but they lacked leadership. Said the team looked for Manning to take over, but he didn't. At that year's pro bowl Manning referred to our "idiot kicker" getting "liquored up."
Funny, after that the colts started playin well & Vanderjagt went on a long streak of made fg's.

Pretty accurate early prediction, methinks

Re: Vanderjagt Signs with Cowboys (merged)
 

T.O. will be on his best behavior this yr and will help dallas tremendously,and so will Vanderjagt,Vanderjagt said 1 thing 1 time and hasnt said anything since then,he doesnt kick off,so what,i wouldnt call what Hall does kicking off either.I think placekicking is very underated on its importance and dallas has probably solved their problem.I wish we would have signed 1 less reciever and paid the money to Vinateri,he's clutch plus he's good at kickoffs
