Good move then, good move now

When you equate your opinion with facts, there is nothing else to say. I rest my case.

It is not that difficult to understand what I wrote. If you conduct yourself in ways that cause others to describe you as a good person, haven't you earned that label of being a good person? Just because that conduct is, in part, a manifestation of your faith, why does it beg greater questions? Why does it, somehow, generate negative connotations? There are many things people use to justify their description of someone as a good person. My point was that if any of those other qualifiers (such as my example of charitable work) were used in relation to Peterman's description as a good guy, we probably would not be posting in a thread about it.

Allen hasn't played in a month, so, we have no idea how he would be playing now. My point is your love for Rosen clearly clouds your judgement and prevents you from objectively evaluating Allen or Rosen. Carry on....

If you are saying that coaches, players, media people, and others seem to relate his being a "good guy" and a "man of faith," then, obviously, Nathan Peterman conducts himself in certain ways that those around him see as good and decent, and based, in part, on his strong faith. Why does that beg any greater questions? Maybe the question is really: If others described him as being a good guy and immediately followed it up with "he does a lot of work in the community and with charitable organizations," would you create a thread questioning whether it was a good thing to connect charitable work with being viewed as a good person? Or is the issue of faith the problem for you?

I have faith that all this talk about faith will not deter most fans from having faith in this GM and HC to turn things around and reward our faithfulness....

Honestly, I cannot fathom, with this team at 3-7, why anyone would not want to give Allen invaluable game experience throughout the remainder of this year.

No. He and Beane should be fired for not seeing the potential in Matt Barkley during the preseason and trading for him before the Bengals released him. #Amateurs

Dear Diary, even though Josh Rosen completed only 56% of his passes today, threw two more interceptions, struggled again, and was generally ineffective, he still looked perfect to me ❤️❤️

Allen

Thank you and all my best to my fellow veterans!

When the offense moves the ball and doesn't turn the ball over, the defense is fine

It really is amazing how Wilson and Prescott dropped past the second round because of their skin color, and teams somehow missed the skin color of Lamar Jackson, Deshaun Watson, De Shone Kaiser, Jameis Winston, Teddy Bridgewater, EJ Manuel, Geno Smith, Robert Griffith, etc., etc., etc.....

I think it is a small segment that believes it would be a good idea to give any FO 5 years just for the sake of "continuity," which is ridiculous. Just as I think it is a small segment that believes it would be a good idea to fire a GM after one draft and 1.5 years into a rebuild and a coach 1.5 years into a rebuild - which is equally ridiculous. Again, IMHO, I think most of us are in the camp that it is reasonable to give them through next year. If, at that point, we are not seeing real improvement and real indications this team is headed in the right direction, then, I would image there will be changes.

I don't believe most fans believe they should automatically get 4 to 5 years. IMHO, I think most believe it is reasonable to give them through next year to show a marked improvement in this team, and that they are capable of achieving what they said they want to do - and what we all want: building a championship caliber team.

He can. Just not as far as Josh Allen...

You seem to be in a very dark place. Would you like to talk about it?

I could be wrong; however, I don't believe he was referring to how Anderson actually played (the results): "Well, obviously I got to see how 'DA' operated... He's been around the league a long time, just kind of how he controlled the walkthrough, how he talked to guys...how he saw things on the field...the reads he made...small things like that." Hopefully, Anderson has been able to (and can continue to) share some insight on things from the perspective of a guy who has been around the game a long time, even though he doesn't have the talent to implement them on the field himself.

The rebuild started long before they made the playoffs, and most of the talent they let go happened prior to making the playoffs. What talent did they let go of after making the playoffs? Glenn, who hardly contributed at all the last couple of years due to injuries? Tyrod, who, minus the turnovers, gave us pretty much the same passing performances we are seeing now? The rebuild was already happening. Making the playoffs was a combination of many things, the least of which was championship caliber talent on the team, particularly on offense. This year was always going to be a struggle, with the loss of two key linemen, the prohibitive amount of dead cap money, and the use of draft capital to acquire, what the team feels, are the future centerpieces of the offense and defense. Anyone paying attention saw some version of this coming. Building the offense around their QB and continuing to add pieces defensively begins this coming off season. You can argue the merits of their plan or the decisions they have made in support of that plan; however, they do have a plan. The willingness to give them some time is not necessarily an endorsement of their philosophy, buying into "the process," a blind willingness to support everything they do, or an indication of some inferior ability to objectively evaluate what they are doing. It is simply a reasonable approach.

Got me there. I am not normally that guy. Good to have it pointed out when I am. Cheers

And why do we care what Dez Bryant is doing?

It is just one more variation of McDermott sucks and needs to be fired

Actually, history and statistics have no relevance to any specific individual. They are group statistics.

More whining than criticizing. But, hey, carry on!

The guy that complains about everything in every post is telling another poster to lighten up? #irony
