Be careful what you wish for

Posted in Offseason on 28/Jan/2010

Think back to the 2006 NFL season. More specifically, think back to the Cowboys’ season. Remember who the starting quarterback was? Well, it depends on which part of the season you’re remembering.

The Weekend After

Posted in Offseason on 25/Jan/2010

In the world of an NFL football fan, is there anything worse than the weekend immediately following the week your team gets eliminated from postseason play? Saturday and Sunday roll around, and for the past 4 months you’ve been trained to look forward to the next game, the next opportunity for your team to [...]

It’s just as we feared—Wade’s contract has been extended through the 2011 season.

It’s no secret that we [...]

An offensive ending

Posted in Offseason on 19/Jan/2010

About FGMJ

It has been twelve long years since our beloved Dallas Cowboys have won a playoff game. While there are many reasons for this, we believe that the team's general manager is ultimately to blame. The mission of this site is to serve as an open appeal to Mr. Jones imploring him to step down as GM and bring in a proven football mind.

  • Luis: The rookie cap is a HUGE must. Those salaries of top draft picks were getting absurd. I really hope it doesn't wind up in a lock out of the 2011
  • supafan: Don't get me wrong Jerry has made plenty of bad decisions, the biggest of which is his face lift. That one is a doosy! I now think one of the be
