Cut Alex Barron tomorrow

by VAfan on Sep 12, 2010 10:52 PM CDT

Cowboys need a big jolt. The proper move would be to cut Barron for blowing the block that negated the winning TD. Instead of elation to get a win we didn't deserve, the Cowboys are looking at a season that could quickly go down the tubes. Forget the Super Bowl. This team is going to be fighting just to make the playoffs if they don't wake up and figure it out.

This is a move Jimmy Johnson would make.

Wow

Although I am very upset with this one play, it was one play. A rational person could blame Buehler, Romo, Choice and just about everyone else for this lose.

It was not one play.

Barron looked like trash all game. He had multiple penalties and got beat over and over.

My error- I apologize.

You are correct. Barron did not have a very good game. However, other than the last play, I did not see anything that justified him being immediately cut. We obviously need to upgrade our OL line ASAP, but how will cutting Barron immediately change the short-term fortunes of this team?

Forget the horrible plays

Barron was laughing with a Redskins player SECONDS after making the game-ending mistake.

Not to mention the way he looked in his SNF introductions with his FSU visor sidways and looking like he could give a rat’s behind.

I can’t believe this guy made it a day through camp. No heart. No effort. Just probably a wad of physical talent. CUT HIM IMMEDIATELY.

Haslett said he knew they could get holding penalties on Barron

During the game, Collinsworth noted this fact. The other fact? Barron was the most penalized lineman in football last year. #2? Flozell Adams. The difference, Flozell protected the QB more often than not, and holding was not his common penalty.

Cutting Barron is as much to send a message of intollerance as anything else.

Heck, I could blame many others too. But you’ve got to find someone to axe to make a statement to the rest of the team. Half-hearted play will get you cut. Pronto. Best way to put this game behind us, I think. I too would much rather have Brewster out there trying to prove himself.
