You may be on to something. You've seen the college or HS plays where the entire OL lines up on one side of the field and then shifts into position while the defense is confused as ****? BoB is taking this to the next level. Yull See.
Ehhh worrying about protecting the only really good thing about the Texans IS something worth being concerned over. Also no quarterback has been sacked as often as Watson after the same number of games so IT IS A PROBLEM.
Are you serious? There is no perspective where what he did was good.... I don't hate the Tunsil trade, but if you are going to mortgage your future I would assume that means we are going all in to win now. Except you trade one of our 5 best players for a bag of garbage and 3rd round pick? The two moves together make absolutely no sense, which is why we need a GM... If the plan was to go all in they should have used their capspace to sign some players to fill the holes and then traded for Tunsil instead and let Clowney play on the franchise tag. But they go like 50% in then 50% out. Makes no sense. Tunsil trade was just BOB trying to save his job.
Ugh Cowboy's fans. Just had huge back and forth at work with a guy who is going on and on about how much better Dak is than Watson. "Dak is just smarter, he doesn't throw himself out there like Watson. Watson is gonna get injured any moment now." Im like umm... Because Watson can't stay in the pocket or he WILL get destroyed... so he has to run at times... It seriously blows my mind at some people and their evaluation of talent and players. If the Texans called to swap Watson for Dak the Cowboys would be salivating.
But Gaine didn't use the Cap Space, he was holding on to it. He wanted compensatory picks. That is what got him fired (actually, I think the Dillard situation got him fired.).
Except BOB had always said he has say in personnel, if he actually wanted to spend it he could have. If he had enough power to get Gaine fired then he has enough power to sign some damn players. Not to mention there were still quality free agents available after compensatory deadline. McCoy, Suh all would help if they knew they wanted to trade Clowney. Especially on one year deals.
