Re: NFL Draft Round 1 Thread

Worth pointing out if (yeah possibly a big if right now) our new DL and system turn out to be game changing then it doesn't matter what weapons anyone has at RB or WR, if the QB doesn't have time to throw and the OL can't open holes...

I thought it was only "hating," if you were trashing someone who were successful or winning. How can it be hating when a team hasn't done anything to be "hate" worthy?

Yes, I do hate the Cowboys by nature, of course. But I'm simply not impressed.

By the way, I hate the term "hating," as it's trite and a way to try to mute opinions.

You're ruining the fun of clowning the Cowboys

Re: NFL Draft Round 1 Thread

The Cowboys getting CeeDee sucks. That offense is gonna be legit. We need to add a CB and S.

But we have Chase now, along with our other guys, we're gonna be hitting Dak in his fucking mouth all game twice a season.

Sexy Rexy and Trent Dilfer went to superbowls based on their D! Not comparing our D to theirs and their offenses were probably better than ours. But yeah with this staff ( DEL RIO DEL RIO DEL RIO) and our front 7. Whew our D can be game changers!

Hope you're right. Fact of the matter is Washington has drafted defensive line in the first round in 4 consecutive drafts now.

And in that same span of time, the defense has ranked only once in the top ten in third down percentage (#7 in 2017). The remaining 3 years they ranked no higher than 29th in 3rd down percentage. 2 of those years, including 2019 they ranked last in the league.

Hoping Ron Rivera is the difference for you guys. Really do

This is true and you are right they have been bad but now Young can add that superstar to this team that is desperate for one. Dallas has a great offense for sure and they will score a ton but that defense could be in rouble

Getting rid of Manusky, and having the players coach themselves would vault the D into the middle of the NFL.

Adding Chase Young, and a proven DC in Jack Del Rio, pushes it even higher.

How high? Who knows.

But losing Manusky and adding Del Rio and Rivera by itself is a game changer. Throw in the consensus best player in the draft, and these dreams become more plausible.

Counterpoint: Our last HC couldn't hire a defensive coordinator worth a damn his entire tenure in DC.

Let's see what an actual defensive guy can do with the talent before we start wondering if they're busts.

Poor coaching. Marinelli is such a good coach for y’all..I was pissed when y’all got him and then the Eagles scored Schwartz...that’s tough sledding in the division. It’s gonna be a 180 for us this year.

Exactly! I called for Manusky's head two years ago. If sandtrap couldn't see the Redskins' D was poorly coached, then he's simply viewing things with Cowboys' lenses or doesn't know the game.

Rivera and JDR has proven themselves, particularly when working in conjunction. Let's see how they can work with this defensive group before taking this defensive front behind the woodshed.
