Cowboys have to make a move at quarterback and a capable veteran like Josh McCown could save their season

Remember May Jonas Siegenthaler Jersey 2020? I know it feels like four years ago at this point. But the were posturing with on his contract and needed a backup quarterback.So with and ready and available, the Cowboys decided to sign Fort Worth’s to a one-year deal worth up to $7 million. The Cowboys had the best quarterback room in the NFL, we said. Favorites to win the NFC East, we believed.Now the Cowboys have suffered two straight embarra sments. One at the hands of the that you could explain away with coughing up the ball twice. But the more recent one a 25-3 lo s to ‘s Washington Football Team was a clear indictment of how ill prepared Dalton is for this role before ‘s suspension-worthy hit knocked Dalton out of the game.At 2-5, the Cowboys are still very much in the hunt for a home playoff game in the NFC East. Christian Djoos Jersey But they’ll have no chance with as their starter. And whenever Dalton can return from the head injury suffered from that hit, Dallas will need to upgrade at the position if it wishes to play in January.As I said on last week, I believe Dallas needs to look within its own state and sign away from the Philadelphia practice squad. McCown has been cashing $12,000-a-week checks from the as he remains the quarantined practice squad quarterback for Philly. But with now a half-season into his rookie year and with carrying the team, the need for McCown has waned.It was a wild Week 7 Sunday and there’s a lot to go over. John Breech and Ryan Wilson join Will Brinson on the Pick Six Podcast to break it all down; listen below andfor daily NFL goodne s.Meanwhile, the Cowboys are hurting. Before the injury, Dalton was terrible under center. DiNucci may wind up being decent, but he can’t deliver Ws right now. Dallas should offer the 41-year-old a starting job to join his 10th team and at least attempt to win the NFC East in a season that should otherwise be lost.I had heard from Dallas sources that Dalton wasn’t ready for the Cardinals last week. He Dale Hunter Jersey didn’t understand protection calls and never slid them over, as evidenced by screaming through the line for a clean sack. He struggled to communicate with his receivers non-verbally. What was he doing all offseason?I understand this offseason was unlike any other. OTAs were virtual and training camp was truncated. Lucas Johansen Jersey He was playing behind Dak Prescott, who was off to a historic start before his ankle injury sidelined him for the season. And he was able to secure staying at home through the summer and the season.Perhaps Dalton never thought he’d go into the game. To be sure, at the start of the season, I figured Dalton would just be a human victory cigar in the final 4 minutes of games, a la with the .But until his injury he had overseen an offense that had put up 13 points in his two starts.But this was a show-me year for Dalton. His time in Cincinnati ended unceremoniously and he joined a Dallas team oozing with talent. It’s hard to score just 13 points through two starts with the weapons on this team. Dalton was 9 of 19 for 75 yards on Sunday before that terribly dirty hit.Dallas cannot devote draft a sets to another quarterback. The Cowboys have to consider the future and giving up Madison Bowey Jersey anything greater than a fourth-round pick for a quarterback that may not be on the team in 2021 isn’t worth it. But the team also must try to win a division that may be won with just seven wins.The last we saw McCown he was keeping a Philadelphia team competitive in the playoffs in a tough situation. At this point is his career he’s not a franchise savior, but he could save the Cowboys season in a year unlike any other.
