The Dallas Cowboys season came to a crashing halt in the Wild Card round of the playoffs.
Once thought of as legitimate Super Bowl contenders, the wheels fell off before you could blink in Dallas.
It looked like the nightmare end to the season was going to cost head coach Mike McCarthy his job. With the legendary Bill Belichick available on the market, most people thought it was a lock that owner Jerry Jones was going to lure him to Dallas.
Surprisingly, Jones decided to pass on pursuing Belichick and is keeping McCarthy instead – albeit on an expiring contract.
One thing that is constant in Dallas is drama … It’s just always there in some way, shape or form.
The latest drama surrounds polarizing quarterback Dak Prescott. Expected to receive a lucrative contract extension, many people are convinced that he’s not the right man to lead to Cowboys and the Boys will never win a Super Bowl with him at quarterback.
It seems like family members of some of Dallas’ biggest stars feel this same exact way…
Leta Ramirez, mother of wide receiver CeeDee Lamb, took to Facebook to express her frustration with Prescott, stating: “DAK ISN’T IT!!!”
“They need to get rid of his a**! It’s guys on that team that want a RING! They work too hard,” Ramirez added.
When a fan suggested that Lamb join the Houston Texans, Ramirez seemed more than open to the idea …
“I wish he would! CJ is great,” she said, referring to rookie quarterback CJ Stroud.
Of course, things can change … But what a strange fall from grace it’s been for Prescott and Lamb who were celebrated all season long as one of the best, if not the best, QB-WR duos in the league.

For some reason, Lamb displayed extremely strange body language during the Cowboys season-ending loss to the Packers.
Cameras caught Lamb having multiple icy moments with both Prescott and McCarthy.
Perhaps we’ll find out more in the future, but it certainly seemed like Lamb had no interest in playing football that day.
Speaking of Dak, his older brother, Tad Prescott, decided to join in on the online drama. Tad expressed a desire for his brother to leave Dallas, citing issues with the fan base.
“Cowboy fans why continue to DM me TRUST ME, if I could get @dak to leave Dallas I would. I too want him out of Dallas. The city and organization have been great to he and our family, but done with drama and the so called fans, but he loves this team, and wants to bring it rings,” Tad tweeted on X.

“Those who really follow or know me, knows I have never spoken badly about the
@dallascowboys as an organization or team, I’ve never spoken badly about a player on the team or the city of Dallas. It’s the so called fans I have an issue with,” Tad added.

Not wanting to miss out on the party, Micah Parsons’ brother, Terrence Parsons Jr., also chimed in on the team’s struggles.
“I can’t wait because y’all are really clueless out here lmfaooo the greatest crimes to this man is being done by his own organization … y’all gonna miss him when he goneeeeeeeee,” Terrence tweeted on X, alluding to his displeasure in how his brother has been used in Dallas’ defense.

Micah smartly pointed out that his brother doesn’t speak for him. (Although it’d be nice if his brother respected him enough to keep his mouth shut in the first place.)
“Any comments made by Terrence Parsons Jr are his & his alone. As you know if I have something to say I’m not afraid to say it. I love my team, my brothers on my team and the city of Dallas and I’m more committed than ever to bring a championship to the greatest fan base on earth,” Micah tweeted on X.

What in the world is happening in Dallas?
Of course, you want to defend your loved ones, but what makes Lamb’s mother and Parsons’ brother think it’s a good idea to run their mouths on social media???
Leta Ramirez better keep her mouth shut and out of the Dallas Cowboys business. And if CeeDee agrees with her, he can go, too. Absolutely no class.

What are your thoughts on the toxic atmosphere surrounding the Cowboys?
What exactly do you think happened between Prescott and Lamb? … Will they be able to smooth things over?
As far as Parsons, he was absolutely invisible in the playoff game against Green Bay … Do you think he’s being misused in Dallas’ defense?
What are your thoughts on Jones deciding to stick with McCarthy? … And what does he need to do this offseason to end the constant disappointment???
