The Dallas Cowboys are an organization that has an incredibly rich history. Men that have suited up for America’s Team are part of an elite fraternity. This is something that BTB’s own Tony Casillas mentions often on The 75O.What many believe to be the greatest Dallas Cowboy of all-time is quarterback Roger Staubach. The Dodger is one of the best players and humans to ever put on the Cowboys uniform. When he speaks Jay Novacek Color Rush Jersey , it’s incredibly important. Staubach took to the airwaves of The Dan Patrick Show (which is available on DIRECTV Ch. 239) on Friday to give his thoughts on the Cowboys, Dak Prescott, Jason Garrett, Jerry Jones, and more. Listen to him below.As mentioned Roger covered many topics concerning America’s Team, he even talked briefly about what a different Cowboys quarterback - Troy Aikman - had to say earlier in the week. Overall Roger kept it pretty politically correct as far as the Cowboys are concerned. He supported Dak Prescotted, cited the Cowboys having some injuries, and expressed confidence moving forward.There’s no denying that Dak Prescott is a leader, we’ve seen that a lot through his two and a half years as the Cowboys quarterback. Similarly, there’s no lie in that the Cowboys have faced some injuries (there are a lot for Sunday in Philadelphia), but we’re all tired of hearing that excuse. Other teams find a way to power through injuries, the Cowboys need to as well. What do you make of what Roger Staubach had to say? Do you agree? Do you think he was just playing the role of legend of the franchise? For a few weeks we’ve talked more about how Amari Cooper’s presence has opened up the Cowboys offense and allowed Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott to have better games. Attention to Cooper was providing opportunities for others in the offense. Cooper had been contributing his own numbers https://www.dallascowboysfanshop.com/Bill-Bates-Jersey , but they weren’t anything that stuck out as first-round-draft-pick worthy. On Thanksgiving, that all changed.Cooper’s stat line was a marvel. Eight receptions on nine targets, 180 yards and two touchdowns. These weren’t ordinary, fade route eight-yard touchdown receptions, either. His first one went for 40 yards, his second one went for 90 yards. That’s just the kind of explosive plays in the passing game that Cowboys have desperately needed. The Cowboys new receiver turned two ordinary first down receptions into long touchdowns. Besides a few big plays sprinkled in on the season, the Cowboys weren’t getting that kind of production from their wide receivers. In this game, they needed it. The second-best Cowboys receiver on the day in terms of catches was Ezekiel Elliott. Obviously Cooper ate up a lot of the targets but without him this offense would have been totally reliant on Elliott. Dallas has been riding Zeke lately, but if they want to really break out on offense, and put up over 30 points consistently, they needed another weapon. Cooper is that weapon.Cooper showed the total package on Thanksgiving. We already knew that he’s a master technician at route-running. His ability to move the chains for the Cowboys over the past few weeks has been crucial. On Thanksgiving, he showed the other part of his game. Explosive playmaker. A guy who can turn a 15-yard pass into a long touchdown. Teams have been pushing their safeties up on the Cowboys Charles Haley Jersey , they weren’t fearing Dallas going deep. But when Cooper made his catches and got past the first tackler the safeties were nowhere to be found. They were either pushed up toward the line or they were too slow to catch Cooper. This is a new element for the Cowboys, something upcoming defense will have to account for.A first-round pick was a lot to pay for Cooper, there is no denying that. When the draft comes around in the spring, the organization, and the fans, will feel it. But on a day like this, when the lead in the NFC East was on the line, it’s pretty uncertain if the Cowboys could have won this game without Cooper. If you are in the camp that you try to reach the playoffs in every season that you play (count me 100% in that camp), then the trade makes sense. You never want to mortgage your future, but it’s hard to argue that Cooper isn’t as good or better than anyone coming out in the draft. He’s more costly against the salary cap but you have to pay for quality.Once you make the playoffs, all kinds of crazy things can happen. Nothing is certain in “the tournament” as Bill Parcells used to call it. Just get there and see what happens. Build a winning culture. That is what the Cowboys are trying to do. Adding Amari Cooper is making it possible.
