    I'm big enough to admit that DB did not lead the Cowboys to the playoffs...

    but I would have taken 9 or 10 wins any day (before anybody puts words in my mouth, I am not saying the Bills would have won 9 or 10 with him; this team was pathetic this year)...hell, I would have taken 8-8 with him at the helm instead of the crap we were served all year.

    oh, well. The Amigos were right. He needed a better team around him. Guess he got it. The 'Boys have way more upside potential than the Bills. Good deal for Bledsoe. Bad deal for us. I hope we all get to enjoy the 2-3 year rebuilding program that starts tomorrow (which still would have happened if DB had been here this year).

    My apologies for being a thorn in everybody's ass all year. Now let's all hope that the Cowboys don't make the playoffs next year and JP can at least lead us to 6 wins...or the Bills will look even more foolish.

        I will admit that Drew had a rebound year, his best since the first half of 02. Parcells knows how to make the most of his limits.

          Close but not good enough;

          That statement embodies Drew's career.

            It's all good. He definitely did better in Big D then he would have here....he would have gotten creamed here had we not cut him. Basically there were no surprises though. Drew has been Drew...started strong, faded in the stretch and no clutch performances in big games. And like our QBs, he will be watching the playoffs from home (except he has a much nicer one than JP or KH).

            I will say that now that this season is over for both the Cowboys and the Bills I don't really care how he does next year. I really only follow the results of a player transaction the year that it happens. After that I move on.

              it's ok, we forgive you

              Bledsoe could have done great things for us if he was just given a little help. Even with avg talent around him this season he has helped Dallas, imagine what he could have done w/a decent line in front of him w/ guys like Moulds, Evans, Parrish, Reed, and McGahee to give the ball to. Even when the line was avg here he took us 8-8 and Moulds had a couple big seasons.

              We needed to give JP a shot, but handing him the job was a ******ed move, they should have made him earn it from Drew.

                    No apologies needed. You like a certain player, eff it, stick to yer guns man. ****, I loved Flutie for a few years and look where that got me – a freakin' drop kick today! lol.

                    I do think though that if Parcells goes, Drew goes. I don't see another coach having his back like Parcells does.

                    But that rebuilding part can only happen if Ralp does the right thing. If TD and MM are here still, we're going to be like the Bengals were in the 90's – for a while.

                      what this team needs is to follow the bengals model for rebuilding, not follow their model of keeping coaches and GM's that can't get it done.

                          why bring up the names of reed,parrish, mcgahee- those 3 guys suk there so inconsistent. and evans is inconsistent a lot of times himself. i would say that glenn and keyshawn johnson are above average. and dallas o-line always had nice things said about it until drew got there.bledsoe makes o-lines look terrible.

                            So now it's next year Drew will do it? It's always next year with him.

                            Up to week 10 most of you guys were saying how great he is and some were even saying the Cowboys were going to the SB and Drew was in the running for the league MVP.

                            How did he finish the last 6 weeks? 14 TO's and 2-4. I said after Week 10 the Cowboys would finish 9-7 due to Drew's yearly crumble and miss the playoffs and I was right. You said they would make a run for the SB and you were wrong and looked foolish once again.

                            All your whining, *****ing and complaining like a little girl and this is how it finishes. You should be used to it though.

                              25 TO's, 17 fumbles and 49 sacks. That was one hell of a rebound year. Parcells really turned him around. Move over Peyton Manning.
