Here are some brutally honest statistics about the Cowboys I wish this Jones front office would be forced to consume this evening:
- The Cowboys are 3-5 in their last 8 games going back to last December.
- The Cowboys are 0-3 in their last 3 home games.
- Those last 3 home gameshave given us these brutal stats:
- Averaging giving up 40 points a game…at home!
- Averaging giving up 202 yds per game on the ground.
- Opponents have scored 17 TDs against our Defense in this 0-3 stretch.
- Opponents have scored on 22 of 27 possessions in those last 3 games at home.
- Our last home win was on Christmas Eve last December.
Those stats are not an accident or a “couple of bad weeks against good opponents”. Those stats above are now what you call a trend or some really, really bad habits. The biggest problem we have (after the owner/GM) is this is not a very good roster. And although it’s only 3 games and normally too early to write a team off, this one might be the exception.
Here’s the final brutal truths:
- There will not be any cavalry riding to rescue this team.
- Scheme won’t fix it.
- Picking up a DT or two from the NFL trash heap won’t fix it.
- Trading for a RB (probably less talented than the 5 good ones we passed up in the draft in rounds 4-7) won’t fix it.
- Firing Mike McCarthy (though deserved) won’t help.
- This culture is putrid. And it reflects the owner and his entitled children.
This is not a very good roster. Buckle your seats kids. This could get ugly.
