IMPROVEMENT- the big IF - Dallas Cowboys Forum

Verdict · 05-20-2004

IF the Cowboys improve as much this year as they did last season we win the Superbowl by 30. This may not be possible to do, but thats how I saw the improvement last year as opposed to the year before under Campo.

last year was by far because coaching improvement, not talent. and coaching can only take you so far, you need to have talent at the key positions. we've got a lot of ifs this season..... QB, RB, Oline, WR (to a lesser extent), Dline, #2 CB.... great.... now i'm depressed...

I'll tell you what, I've got every game on tape for the past three years......you wouldn't believe the change from Campo's last year to last year alone.

Just watching it you could tell.

Last year was about winning games that we gave away during those 5-11 years.
This time last year everyone was predicting 6-7 wins and I pulled out this stat, 17 of the 33 loses were by a TD or less. 13 were by LESS than a TD, so in reality we were ONE big play a game...for or against...from being 8-8 to 10-6 in any of those seasons.

We have had .500 talent for four years, but Parcells got the most from that talent.

Now we will see if our young players continue to improve beyond .500 talent and if Tuna can "coach up" the rest.

As someone who predicted 10-6 record even I was amazed at what bill did last year.I did expect a couple of changes that didn't happen.
