At least they've still got Kyle Arrington on the roster.

He's like a wart who won't come off. Dude's been on IR for two years straight. I think it's a concussion, so I don't want to make too much fun. But that was such a huge bust signing.

Carr is worse, and that's coming from a Cowboys fan. The worst part about Carr is he actually plays all 16 games. And he's a free completion waiting to happen on any down. He plays extremely conservatively due to his molasses-slowness, always playing for the tackle after catch and never for the ball. He's extremely overrated just because he hasn't been injured in his life.

But that's not really a bad thing (for the team; it's terrible for Dennis), because the Ravens had an injury waiver on his contract. So they can let him go and take the cap savings like they should have done years ago.

They actually got rid of Arrington finally. They signed Boykins and some other guy. I think they're both on min deals not bad to have some competition to replace Young. Damned shame he got hurt.

Carr played pretty well last year, tbh. He's not elite, and wasn't worth the contract but it's no reason to shit on him for not being something he isn't.

He always plays behind the receivers and goes for the tackle after catch, never the ball or *god forbid* the interception. I'm royally fucking fed up with that type of player and am glad he is gone.

I'd MUCH rather play aggressive, get 3-and-outs, gentleman's 3-and-outs, and turnovers and -maybe- give up the ever-so occasional 9 route ball than be dink and dunked to death and hope to "bend but don't break" -- that's pussy ball and a sorry excuse for sucking.

With our #1 running game and top-5 overall offense, best Time of Possession offense the league has seen in awhile, etc., I think a Cover 3 scheme (with the right pieces in place) like Seattle's since 2012 would make the Cowboys the equivalent of the NBA Warriors for awhile. It's up to the young guys on defense to become those "right pieces" and the defensive coaching staff to finally get their heads out of their asses and figure out that it's actually fine to man up and be aggressive on defense.
