[NFL] Cowboys to release Q. Carter?!


Recommended Posts

surprised about the move.. but im more surprised by the reaction from you cowboys fans.. i have friends in dallas that are huge cowboys fans and they cant stand quincy carter.. and just about every other cowboys fan ive talked to has ripped him to pieces.. but you guys seem to like him

Romo was #3 last year, only became #2 while Hutch was injured.

The same Hutch who was sent to NFL Europe because he sucked? Parcells was doing what Jones said until he got fed up with Hutch. Romo would have been the second-string by the end of the year either way. And taking over second-string is still taking over second-string, anyway you look at i:):)

Go to #14 (or search for Romo): http://apps.footballguys.com/03update90.htm

Parcells has pretty much always thought of Romo as ahead of Hutch.

Seems to me I'm the only one in the thread who thinks that. :laugh:

EDIT: On ESPN the guy just said that Parcells is big on Romo and something about him being good... missed it, though.

Actually, I like him, but not as our QB. The problem in the past was...there wasn't anyone better on the team. Now that we have Testaverde and Henson....Carter should be #3 on the chart.

Romo may impress Parcells, but I can't see a guy from Eastern Illinois University being the #1 guy in Dallas. He wasn't that great in college.

BOOG, have you seen his college credentials (or seen him play)? To say he wasn't good in college is quite possibly the biggest overstatement I've ever heard.

I never said he was going to be #1... I said he'll probably be #2. Him being #1 would be just as much of a mistake as Henson starting.

The problem is, Troy Aikman, Emmit Smith and Michael Irvin are retired.

Dallas fans think of themselves as the Yankees of the NFL, that they should be in the super bowl every year. Everyone hates the Cowboys except Cowboy fans, just like the Yankees.

You go up and down, look at the Rams. You have to draft well in the NFL, you can't just buy a team and win. Ask Sneider in Washington, lots of talent, no one to direct them. Sure they have Parcells, now he has to rebuild.

Seeing how My wife went to Eastern Illinois, and we've been to a couple games there where he played, and they play Illinois State here in town......Yes. I have seen him play, and have seen his credentials.

And yes. He didn't impress me while in college.

Actually, I wouldn't be so happy about this, if I were an Eagle fan.:laugh:h:

i rather either a just out of baseball drew henson or still sly but over 40 vinny than quincy carter whom we have seen and has seen us for the past 2 years. i see ur point as far as talent is concerned but i reiterate.. Go Eagles!!!

Another update from DallasCowboys.com

Jerry Jones confirmed that Carter will be released.

But back to the topic of his abilities:

Regardless of how well he did in college, I think he has been far from consistant in the NFL.

He has good days, but many bad days. And personally, I think Dallas would have done even better if he would have been on target more often.

If he was alot more consistant, I think he would be great. But he's still young, and got lots of time to work on it.

As far as Testaverde, I think he's just temp filler. He's there because Dallas has no seasoned verteran QB. Simple as that.

I don't see him lasting but a season or two. They needed someone who could step in and work under pressure, and when Aikman retired, they lost that. And Quincy just doesn't have that.

Maybe Irvin is still hanging around Cowboys camp after all then eh? Once a Cowboy, always a Cowboy.

:huh:

Try to stay on topic, instead of trying to incite team bashing. Your comment has nothing to do with this topic. If Eagle and Cowboy fans can get along fine in this forum, you can too.

I must say that I am not shocked at all that Carter got cut. He wasn't going to take the 'Boys anywhere. I don't believe that Testeverde is the answer. I can honestly see Dallas making a big move to get a new starter. I know that Henson has potential but the 'Boys need a QB now and fact be known Testeverde is past his prime. Pending how well the whole Eli Manning thing goes I wouldn't count Warrener out of being in Dallas.

To get a new starter? Fat chance, I think.

I think with the acquisitions of Keyshawn and Eddie that the Cowboy's will feel that nows there time to make a move. I expect pressure from the upper brass and if Vinnie doesn't win then there will be a quick move. Just my opinion though. Feel free to disagree.

Yes, but neither of those were exactly a secret. Plus Parcells has said he's pretty much sticking with these guys... I'll take his word on it. :) Jones is the upper brass, and he doesn't exactly want to go out and get any more QBs, either, from what he's saying.

No one told him to take illegal substances :whistle:

Plus, he's too full of himself when he stated he was GOING to be the starter because he was the best quarterback the team had. If he wouldn't be too full of himself, he wouldn't take substances.

Get him out of there!

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.

    • Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Only a few weeks ago, Sega and Creative Assembly dropped a teaser for a new Alien Isolation. Today at Summer Game Fest, Alien: Isolation 2 was officially announced with a new trailer while also confirming a whole lot of information about the setting of this survival horror project. Check out the reveal trailer above. Leaving behind the Sevastopol space station, the sequel will take players to a remote colony world. With a Xenomorph (or more) on the loose, players will be navigating both the surface of the weather-ravaged planet as well as "the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station." Interestingly, Creative Assembly is leaving behind Amanda Ripley, the daughter of Alien's Ellen Ripley, as the protagonist too. While it hasn't confirmed a name yet, players will be taking the role of a new character for this new adventure. The setting is also being described as a new hunting ground for the Alien. This will have players improvising and developing new tools to aid in their survival and escape, all to avoid "cinema’s deadliest killer." "It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel," says Al Hope, Creative Director at Creative Assembly. "Our dedicated Survival team at Creative Assembly has been working hard to create a new, evolved Isolation experience continuing the legacy of the Alien franchise, making the eponymous killer smarter, the environment harsher and the chance of survival slimmer." Promising the same deadly tension from the original from over a decade ago, Alien: Isolation 2 is in development for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced yet.
