Cowboys lose 2 offensive linemen in a week. Kyle Kosier to miss a month due to injury!

[firstdown]

I hope they are Ok and are healthy enough to return in week 2.

I dont know if it is god awful...but I do cheer piss poor mismanagement and the real karma is when you fail to address obvious weaknesses this is the appropriate result. Yes we know about our past issues with the line, but that was b/c of Vinny and Dans poor GM-ing. Jerrah had an opportunity to draft Olinemen this past draft. He chose the flashy move in Dez Bryant. His Oline on que is now hurting immensely in the second week of preseason. Karma is a bitch.

The Cowboys have done the same thing to their O-line that we have done to ours in the last couple of years, which is nothing. We had a great offensive line in 2005 and 2006, so we didn't worry about drafting anyone new. Then they all got old at the same time and started getting hurt. Our line then just got worse and worse from 2007-2009.

The Cowboys haven't used any high draft picks on o-lineman recently and they are all getting old at the same time. Their all starting to reach about age 32, which is how old all of ours were when they started to suck. Maybe their depth is a little better than ours was, but it is still not good. Offensive line is definitely going to be the weak point of that team this year, and as we've seen, that can destroy an entire offense.

Jerry is still heart broking over the chance to get Randy Moss back in the day and he passed on him. That's why he traded for Roy & drafted Dez he will not let character issues get in the way of his draft board anymore. Jerry in the draft room "F*#k the O-line give me the lying son-of-a b*@#h"

Preseason injuries can go to either extreme; maybe it's a blessing that the guy gets hurt & can heal while there are no games that count. On the other hand, it could lead to a nagging injury that affects them all year.

Even a season ending injury in the preseason has one upside; the team has more time to address options & work a new player into that spot.

All in all, I don't ever cheer injuries, I would always rather beat teams st. up.

I could care less about karma when it comes to the cowboys. Are u kidding me?

To me a W is a W. I will welcome a win against the Boys anyway we can get one. Kosier will be back for round#2, so they will get their line back soon after the first game of the season. WE have had a piss poor record against the Cowboys under Wade Phillips, losing even when we had roster parity or superiority over them. IF a dinged up line helps our cause, I am all for it. It is not like these injuries were career ending or really all the serious, it just means Kosier and co aren't going to be able to give us hell. Kosier still might be able to play if he is a fast healer.

You could? Then do it.



Seriously, I don't believe in the hippie karma voodoo crap, but the Cowboys deserve pretty much every downfall they get. They've spent decades with drug users, sexual offenders and criminals...then ON the field, they've had dirty players like Horsecollar Williams and Flozell Adams. I have zero sympathy for them, any problem they encounter is long overdue.

Agreed.
