Michael Vick, who had choice words for Rob Ryan in training camp after the Dallas defensive coordinator took a shot at the "all-hype" Eagles, took the high road on Wednesday when Dallas-area reporters rehashed Ryan's August comments. But DeSean Jackson said Thursday that Ryan's words were "uncalled for" because he was a coach and the Eagles wide receiver wouldn't have the opportunity to give Ryan "a shot" for saying "something crazy." Jackson said: "For a coach to really say that, it's hard for me to kind of respect that because the coach is not really out there playing,""He's doing a good job of calling plays, putting his defense in the right position to stop the offense. You know, as far as the defensive coordinator to predict that, that's unheard of, uncalled for. It'll be good if his players said that, then I could I understand that. We're out there on the field with him so I would able to get a chance to get a shot at that player if he said something crazy. But for a coach, it ain't like I can run on the sideline and tackle the coach or run past him and score a touchdown." Source: Philadelphia Inquirer
Unless its a head coach, none of these assistants should be opening their trap...especially with the last name Ryan...
Yeah he was but like I said before pot meet kettle. In the last 15 years or so the Cowboys have been the most overhyped, overrated team.
Not that the cowboys are over hyped but more is expected of them ...no such thing as rebuilding...we always expect the best sent from my supercharged EVO
There is underachieving, and then there is failing when it matters most, which is what the Cowboys have done. Cowboys have won 70 games in a 7 year period before last year. Not underachieving. They have however failed when it matters most with all of 1 playoff win in that span. Only two years in that span there was any SB hype around them was in 2008 the year after they won 13 games, and last year, the year after the won 11. Injuries derailed 2008 and they imploded last year
You say tomato I say tomato. If playoff wins are expected and you only have one in the last 15 or 14 years well I say that's underachieving. What about prior to those seven years? Still sounds like underachieving o me. But I digress, I'm a fan of a team who nobody has ever really expected anything out of.
Persoanlly, I would rather they underachieved but won when it counts like the Giants as opposed to not and failing when it counts
Constantly underachieving means you annually fall short of your expected output 70 wins in 7 season, 10 per says thats not the case There is cherry picking to call one thing something else, and then there is calling a spade a spade. Truth is since 2003 until now, the Cowboys have been as good or better then they were expected. However they have failed in do or dies 80% All together now............ Chokers
In that regards, you are correct, I guess. In the broader view. But thats the snitch about being the fan of the team that has 5 rings. Droughts happen. Hell Im a Celtics fan too, and the Cowboys drought is nothing compared to the Len Bias/Reggie Lewis tragedies that plagued that franchise during that
