Wrigley · 05-23-15, 07:32 AM

I really think they thought they were going to get Peterson

KANSAS24 · 05-23-15, 07:34 AM

I dont thing they need peterson now!

opie1988 · 05-23-15, 07:59 AM

They never had any intention of paying big $$ for AP. Wasn't gonna happen.

Otters27 · 05-23-15, 08:02 AM

AP would have fit with Jerry Jones but he is kind of past his prime now so no need to pay big money

Tough spot for Dallas

They need a healthy Mcfadden real bad

KANSAS24 · 05-23-15, 09:08 AM

Now that's funny but so true!

LT Profits · 05-23-15, 09:24 AM

Actually didn't McFadden stay relatively healthy last year?

But yes I just checked. First time in his NFL career he played in all 16 games (12 starts).

Dallas looks like they will have journeyman running the ball..no big deal if you have holes HS kids can run in NFL

chico2663 · 05-23-15, 11:45 AM

they already have talent in house

mpaschal34 · 05-23-15, 11:59 AM

Jerry is trying to bring back the Glory Days of Ark football. Felix and RunDMC in the backfield together again.

Problem is, their 40 times combined are a second slower than back then.

jtoler · 05-23-15, 12:03 PM

Dummies let the golden goose go, people keep saying you can just plug any rb in, lol, Murray is special, Boys digressed big time, Romo might lead the league in picks.

The OL had 1 good year and people are talking like they are greatest ever.

mr. leisure · 05-23-15, 12:36 PM

Should have kept murray , he took the pressure off of romo .

jjgold · 05-23-15, 12:42 PM

Many think Dallas had a career season as did Romo time will tell as it is getting tougher and tougher to win in the NFL as there is a lot of parity

That Dude · 05-23-15, 01:26 PM

Cowboys running game will be just fine with what they have. Murray was a good running back made to look great by a dominant O-line. Now they add a first round talent to what was already arguably the best line in football and I don't think you will see much of a drop off at all.

TheGuesser · 05-24-15, 03:34 AM

The Cowboys did a great job with Murray. Used him up, and then got a stupid division rival to drastically overpay for the shell of what's left. The history of guys who had the number of carries Murray had and what they did afterwards is scary.
Their running game will be just fine with Mcfadden/Dunbar/Randle/whoever else.

Coach Potato · 05-24-15, 05:24 AM

Ray rice? Lol

Cowboys among teams that could pursue Ray Rice

Chi_archie · 05-24-15, 07:34 AM

I hope they don't take rice

Auto Donk · 05-24-15, 09:12 AM

im all for rice, rounds out the pokes criminal repertoire.....

Bet you there will be a huge dropoff.

Greatest ever? Who cares? They are the best in 2015, that's all that matters right now.

R.P. McMurphy · 05-24-15, 10:38 AM

Like Slacker said probably best now is all that matters. Who cares how they stack up to lines from past it's irrelevant?? Let's not also forget part of their strength is a formidable pass attack that opponents must respect. Hope Dmc stays healthy even tho I can't stand the Girls. As an Oak fan though be nice to see him hopefully excel in surroundings with better talent. Hes a big asset in pass gm as well and a nightmare for defenders in space. Dallas should be just fine using a 2/3 back attack like most teams no matter who they plug in their with that line and ability to stretch defenses.

chico2663 · 05-24-15, 11:29 AM

murray was the franco harris of our time. HE was at 3 yds before he was touched.

Really? Same OL that got dominated by Philly? Get back to me in Dec when Dallas is a .500 team and tell me how the OL is best in league again.

Killer_Demo · 05-24-15, 01:15 PM

McFragile sucks, Dallas would be lucky to get 8 games out that bum.

rm18 · 05-24-15, 01:54 PM

Randle might get 2000 yards next year COMMON.

Dominated? Dallas hung 38 on Philly in their house I'd hardly call that domination

Don't get me wrong, Philly has a top notch o-line too. If Chip's moves pan out, it should be an epic battle.
