It seems like in the majority of them, the Dallas Cowboys do well, but their arch-rival in the East, the Philadelphia Eagles, best them. So it is in the latest one from CBS Sports by Jared Dubin. While homerism may keep me from completely agreeing with Dubin’s take Kavon Frazier Jersey , his article seems well-researched and he backs up his arguments. His take on the Cowboys seems accurate (meaning his opinions line up with mine!).He takes a moment looking at what the Cowboys did outside of player acquisition, including replacing Scott Linehan with Kellen Moore. He also brings up some of the negative stuff like Randy Gregory’s suspension, Tyrone Crawford's bar fight and Ezekiel Elliott’s video. While to some extent these incidents are outside of the Cowboys control, they can possibly affect the upcoming season and remind us that this seems to happen to the Cowboys far too often in offseasons past and present.There is also the DeMarcus Lawrence signing, plus the still out there negotiations with players like Dak Prescott, Amari Cooper, Elliott and others. How those play out will really help define how successful this offseason ends up being, especially in the long-term view of the franchise. As for the here and now Cole Beasley Color Rush Jersey , Dubin sums up the offseason player moves like this:In the end he gave the Cowboys a B+ grade, which seems reasonable. He notes some of the shortcomings for Dallas, mainly around the Cowboys not really upgrading the safety position. The Cowboys front-office’s love for the GOAT (Jeff Heath) is baffling to some and the signing of George Iloka really isn’t enough to inspire confidence in the position. There are also the contract negotiations still unfinished and how those play out will ultimately affect the grade for the Cowboys 2019 offseason.Dubin jumps on the bandwagon of love for the Eagles offseason and hands them an A- grade, dining them for not signing a capable backup for Carson Wentz, who has had his troubles staying healthy. He also notes their cornerbacks are not top-notch and they didn’t do much to solve that. The Eagles did well in the trade market and they will also be rolling in compensatory picks next year. Washington ended up with a B- grade, everyone kind of acknowledges that they had a very productive draft. They also landed Landon Collins. But the team lost some key players and they are lacking on offense even though their defensive front seven has the chance to be elite. Washington likely won’t be ready this year but they laid the ground work for the future.And our friends from New York? At least they didn’t get an F as Dubin takes pity on them and hands them a D grade. His summation? They don’t have a coherent plan. Ha! Saints receiver Michael Thomas went back in time for his touchdown celebration Sunday, and Titans safety Kevin Byard followed Monday night.Byard danced on the midfield star at AT&T Stadium after his end zone interception. He was joined by teammates. 49ers receiver Terrell Owens did the original midfield star celebration in 2000. He promptly was tackled by Cowboys safety George Teague. Cowboys cornerback Byron Jones shoved Byard in the back, although Byard was expecting to have his head knocked off. Former Cowboys tight end Jason Witten https://www.dallascowboysfanshop.com/Marcus-Martin-Jersey , now an ESPN analyst, called it disrespectful, as did Jones. Titans coach Mike Vrabel agreed.“That’s not what we want as an organization. That’s not what I want as a head coach,” Vrabel said Tuesday, via video posted by Paul Kuharsky of paulkuharsky.com. “I want our guys to play as hard as they possibly can, for each other, between the whistles, as physical Dak Prescott Jersey , as aggressive, as clean as they possibly can. I get that there’s things that cross the line between whistles. Once the whistle blows, celebrate with a teammate. Find somebody else in a Titans uniform. Find a coach. Celebrate with them. But we don’t need to do that. That’s not what we want to do. I talked to Kevin this morning. I’ll talk to the team again tomorrow. That goes for a lot of guys. That’s not what I want. If that’s what they want, then we see it very differently.”Although officials didn’t penalize Byard, he is subject to an NFL fine as the rule book specifically covers stomping on a team logo.
