Chip Kelly needs to get the ship sailing in the right direction soon. Bradford has been awful and they chipped in some picks to get him. A lot of decisions he has made aren't breaking right so far.

Just because the division is god awful.
He wasn't atrocious last night, but then again he wasn't exactly opening it up either.
Defense is playing better. Murray didn't break one single tackle last night...How Chip doesn't see he needs to be behind Matthews is beyond me.

I dont really fault them for losing to Carolina at home, but without drops, they possibly win. He really improved the defense and thought he can save the offense as well. I don't like Bradford and thought that was a bad move, but how to you predit Matthews, Kelce, and Sproles playing so badly this year?
I could actually envision them beating @Dallas, Miami, TB, @Detroit, Buffalo, Arizona, Wash to finish with 10 wins. Probably won't win all of those, but could be 9-7 division winner.

I praise Cousin Kirk when he plays well. He's had two clutch drives this year to get wins. Overall, he's been pretty bad because he can't push the ball downfield and throws too many picks.
He was terrible vs. Atlanta, Jets, and Giants. He was bad vs. Miami. He was decent vs. the Rams and somewhere between decent and good vs. the Bucs.

He can't push the ball down the field because the team doesn't have a healthy deep threat. He made good decisions yesterday to lead the best comeback in your history. But I agree it was only a decent game.
irk Cousins (-0.8) embodied the often-heard term of “game manager” quarterback as he led Washington’s comeback yesterday. Although Cousins was very accurate and had a completion percentage of 82.5, he was not asked to do a lot by his team. This is well-represented by the fact that 31 of his 40 pass attempts (77.5 percent) were within 10 yards of the line of scrimmage. However, Cousins did have some success downfield, too, but his completion percentage immediately dropped to 66.6 percent when throwing 10 or more yards downfield. Also, it is necessary to note that Cousins would not have had the opportunity to throw a game-winning touchdown if Chris Conte had not dropped the quarterback’s ill-advised pass on the previous play.
The Skins do have speedsters in Crowder and Ross. But, Cousins doesn't throw a good deep ball so the team doesn't try to do things they aren't good at and simply throw 5-7 yard passes.

Hardy misses practice with no explanation. Looks like Dallas is buying into these shenanigans in the name of on field production. Owner backing him fully really puts coach in a bad spot.

Interested in what thoughts [MENTION=35]yeezus[/MENTION] has on Hardy since he was the single person in the world that thought it was a good idea to bring Hardy aboard in the first place.

Really thought Mia was gonna show up for this game. Guess not
I will defend Hardy. Missing practice ain't cool but the rest of the **** I don't care what he does off the field so long as he isn't raping or killing people. His job is to get the QB, there isn't anything he was going to do in practice he hasn't done a million times already. Maybe I am alone in this but I don't view players as angels. I watched h documentaries on old time players where they talk about how mean a player was and they were trying to hurt people but we fondly remember those guys and demonize the players nowadays for the same ****. **** the NFL and it's hypocrisy. Kind of hard for them to preach morality with King Douchebag as commisioner.

From a team standpoint, I think the point is you want to see someone learn from their mistakes. But it's rather clear Hardy shows no remorse and shows no intention on changing his life. Hardy is a destructive person. And you'd rather not see his sort of behavior rub off on your younger players.
I guarantee you none of the players on the cowboys gives two ****s what Greg Hardy does. Except for his backup. I bet his backup is outraged.
