Freddie's Dead Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 My guess is that ToG (Tub o' Goo) is overweight and out of shape. I doubt you could motivate him with a cattle prod up the ying.

I don't know for sure obviously, but I think Dareus did something in the locker room that qualified as a Bridge Burning Act in McDermott's eyes. I think his welcome mat is worn out and in the trash compactor. But I could be wrong.

He is 30 years old and can likely still be, if motivated, a big part of a great defense. No risk, but a big reward possible here. If 1

I'm really reaching at this phase as I think most our D issues are at the DT and MLB position right now after re-watching a couple of these games. I just don't see a solution at this unless we make a trade and drop serious future assets. Edited October 16, 2020 by Real McNasty 1

If he was truly a bad fit, he would be employed by now because other teams would recognize this. Dareus hurts your defense because he takes plays off and is lazy. That’s why he’s not even a depth player right now. He’s probably done in the NFL. 1

What are you even talking about? We just contained Jacobs and Henry. Run defense is not the issue. Linebacker depth is. And also containing the edges on the line. 1

Getting a solid push straight into the QB's face is what we are lacking big time right now and hurting us up the gut.

Half of the defense looks like they already take too many plays off. He'd fit right in.
Georgia Bill Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 https://www.bloggingtheboys.com/2020/10/14/21515316/cowboys-news-jerry-jones-comments-on-dak-prescott-contract-status-andy-dalton-ceedee-lamb A ways down in this blog they talk about 3 free agents the Cowboys should consider signing. DT Marcell Dareus is first on the list. Another similar suggestion was made on a Cincinnati Bengals blog. So some people think he might be a viable option...

Just not sure how many of those descriptions actually fit Marcel at this stage. So a different person than he ever ven was? Lol. I remember meeting him at work after his rookie year i talked to him a bit. I joked with him asking can I pencil you in for 10 sacks. He promised me 14 sacks his second year. Im still waiting

CSBill Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 Darius was lazy and out of shape when he was on a team. What makes you think he's done anything over the past 5 months to be ready to play NFL level football?
Scott7975 Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 Dude was lazy in football. He is probably an out of shape slug right now smoking weed and eating dorritos on his couch. No thanks. There is a reason this team got rid of him. There is a reason he is not on a team now. We need help but Dareus isn't it. 1
