"- Chad Johnson finally parts ways with the Bengals"

Oh, please be right. It is way to clear he hasn't given up much effort all of this year and doesn't want to be part of Cincinnati because it's "all about chad". We have some good WR's that haven't gotten much of a chance thus far and with the departure of OCHO HASTA LA VISTA they'll get their chance.

Big backs are not coveted the way they were in the past. A recent trend of only drafting home run hitting RB’s in the first round has occurred, AP would be the exception but his forty time kind of places him in with the home run hitters. Wells will not run a 4.3 and he has injury concerns. For some reason bigger backs fall, nothing against him because I could foresee Cleveland moving back in or getting him early second. But, he's NOT 1st round worthy.

Yea, he is a big back.. But he has the speed to break away from a defense and he has shown it before.... If he actually falls to the 2nd round, whoever gets him just picked up the steal of a life time.. He has the speed, he has the power, he has the vision to be a great back. He's even hurdled over defenders this year.. And I'm not talking about ones on the ground, I'm talking about ones who are barely bending over. He is so athletic, so strong and fast.

I don't see Beanie Wells as being this top 10 pick that some do. I think Wells poses a lot of concerns for NFL teams, he's not very fast, and I don't see him as putting on an impressive combine. I think Wells can be a good back in the NFL...I just don't think that high of a projection will exist in those "War Rooms" come draft day.

I honestly see Knowshown Moreno being the first back taken.

Lol at ForReal. Ur little "Head Coach waiting in the wings" there, Jason Garrett...is just as much to blame as Wade Phillips for the pee-poor results as of late.

I will tell you some things I expect to see this off-season:
- Sam Bradford is the #1 pick in the draft.
- Brett Favre spends another 3/4 of the off-season "thinking about it".
- Matt Cassel is the most sought after FA QB
- Larry Johnson is traded
- Andy Reid and Donovan McNabb are both out in Philly.
- The departure of Monty Kiffin will spell the end of Ronde & Brooks in Tampa
- Zack Thomas and Jason Taylor again look for new teams
- Wade Phillips is fired, Jason Garrett not given the head coaching gig
- Rod Marinelli, Jim Zorn, Dick Jauron, Herm Edwards, and Romeo Crennell all fired
- Bill Cowher, Marty Schottenheimer, Jim Fassell, Jim Mora Jr, and Rex Ryan all hired
- Chad Johnson finally parts ways with the Bengals
...and here's the shocker...
- T.O. is out of Dallas

LOL at AE!

You do know that Jason Garrett is the highest pay coach at this position in the NFL a year ago he was the hottest coach to have an NFL coaching job, but Jerry Jones told him he will MAKE HIM THE HEAD COACH after WADE!......... way to get owned.

And Terrell Owens out of Dallas, now that's something to laugh at again, he stated that he would like to retire as a Cowboy and so did Jerry Jones, he said "I would like to see Owens retire in a Dallas uniform" so yeah good prediction there buddy.

well everyone blames Wade for the offensive struggle, when really if you hgave an issue with the play calling, you talk to the OC.

As for Bradford at #1 Pick, I don't know why, but I dont see him going into the draft this early.

So just because Jerry Jones told Garrett he would make him a head coach...he's going to be the next Cowboys' head coach? Some Cowboys fan you are if you actually take any ounce of what Jerry Jones says as the truth. The Cowboys' offense has been very predictable and unproductive, the reason Dallas has struggled as of late. Not only is the finger being pointed at Wade...but now people are wising up and starting to look at Garrett for the blame as well. Why? Probably because Garrett calls the plays and trust me, he's no "next head coach" if he can't get a grip on his offense & start winning games.

As for T.O. ...it's laughable that again, you are taking what T.O. says as fact. T.O. is slowly but surely wearing out his welcome in Dallas & its at the point now where even the home crowd is booing him. Why spend another season walking around on eggs shells with this guy? Roy Williams, Patrick Crayton, and Miles Austin will do just fine without him & I am sure every one of his teammates is sick and tired of listening to him whine and cry about not getting the ball. The guy is a horrible teammate, very bipolar, and has a track record of imploding & throwing everybody under the bus when he doesn't get his way.

But your right ForReal...TO and Jerry Jones both stated that they wanted Owens to retire as a Cowboy once...so I am sure it will happen. :huh2: [sarcasm]Mad props to you for the serious ownage your dishing out on me. [/sarcasm]

LOL just quit dude, you don't know nothing about whats going with with the Cowboys so just quit. Jason will be the new head coach and you mock my words. Who else is there to get the job please tell me if you know so much.

And I laugh at people like you. You are still attacking Terrell Owens and calling him a cry baby or whatever, when this whole season he hasn't done nothing wrong and he is staying humble while people like you keep attacking him at every word he says. But that's cool.....

It's kind of hard to not say anything about him because he's so ungrateful for what he has. Look at Calvin Johnson for example. He's a hell of a WR and he NEVER complains about not getting the ball and besides he's on a 0-15 team and still keeps giving 100% effort every weekend and doesn't run his mouth to get some attention.

I don't care who it is.... If your on a team and don't get the ball as much as you'd like AND your team is losing taking the Bengals and Lions into consideration... If T.O was on either he'd want out for that reason and it's because he's not a "team" player. He is all about himself.

That is a prime example of WHY I want Chad Johnson out of Cincinnati. It's all about him and not the Cincinnati Bengals... I hope he goes to a team and does worse...

Players like T.O actually hurt the team deep down inside for who they are even though they are pretty good at what they do.

Bottom line IS: T.O is about T.O and not the Dallas Cowboys and he always has been that way and always will be that way.

And you can call me a dumbass and whatever else may come to mind.

BTW, Merry Christmas, lol.

Nah man, why would I call you a dumbass? But, I think different and I think Terrell isn't trying to hurt the team he is actually trying to help. But when you have a mess up coaching staff you know you won't be a great team.

Have you not been watching the games? Garrett hasn't done anything to help us this season... His play calling sucks majority of the time. I think it's more Garrett's fault for how bad we've been lately, not Phillips. Yet you're saying he'll be the coach next year? I think not. Why reward this man for doing absolutely nothing this year?

If Wade does lose his job, I hope Jerry has enough sense not to make Garrett the new HC.

Well Wade has been the one actually making offensive and defensive plays. Because if I remember right last year Jason had the job on offense and he made every call and we actually played a lot better then now on the offense. But since Wade took over both roles our offense is sucking bad, only our defense has stepped up big that's it.

As of right now, and Fallen proves my point, a lot of Cowboy fans agree with me. Garrett has called the plays all season long & right now, the Cowboys unbalanced play calling, and failure to properly mix run with the pass has a lot of fans up in arms. There's no doubt that Jones made the wrong decision in hiring Wade Phillips & I wouldn't doubt Jerry Jones fires both he and Garrett at season's end, should the Cowboys fail to make the post-season...or make it and lose in the wildcard round.

I honestly couldn't tell you who the next head coach of the Dallas Cowboys would be...but then again, I couldn't tell you who the next head coach of any team will be next season. I know that the success of Mike Smith, John Harbaugh, and Tony Sparano is going to begin a new trend how GM's go about hiring new head coaches. Your going to see GM's start to shy away from the big names available, take their time, interview more candidates, and look for those guys who have been in supporting roles for much of their career. But just b/c I can't tell you who the next HC in Dallas would be...doesn't mean it's going to be Jason Garrett b/c Jerry Jones had a 'hard on' over him in the beginning of the season.

As for Owens, I can say that your about the only person on this planet, next to Owens himself & Drew Rosenhaus, that believes he has remained humble all season long and wants whats best for his team. That said...you can draw 1 of 2 conclusions...

1. Your out of your mind, defending T.O. because he is on your favorite team, and/or your extremely naive...or...

2. You really know the deal and the rest of us are just crazy.

They've done a great job getting him the ball...

He's had as many catches in 9 games with Dallas as he did in 5 games with Detroit... #2 receiver in both.

He seems like a good #1, but I don't think he'll EVER be a reliable #1... Solid #2.

Well on ESPN they just show I saw/read. It said Terrell Owens was telling the press that they need to get Roy Williams more the ball! He said if you are going to pay a guy that much and not involve him in the system, it doesn't make senses.

So this goes out to AE, what do you say about that?

T.O. is no dummy, he knows when and how to manipulate the media. But he is a complete idiot to expect the ball so many times for himself and Roy Williams at the same time. But who really knows if T.O. made this comment anyways? This could be another one of Ed Werder's evil schemes.

Even T.O. says not to believe everything you hear about him or buy into things he reportedly says and does. Whether he made this comment or not, I could care less, I just know that actions speak louder than words...and his actions have spoken volumes louder.

If it were me, the ball is going to Roy Williams more times regardless. Williams plays hard on every play, no matter who is getting the ball, and Roy Williams drops way fewer passes.

Well you do know Dallas SportsNews reported this! So that means "Ed Werder" had nothing to do with it.
