Because under Reid, they are an excellent second half team, especially December. even after being 4-8, the won thier last 4 games plust went 5-1 in the division.

The boys generally take a second half, especially December swoon, though this year has started early.

The only thing that really annoys me about the national media's coverage of the Cowboys...

In the offseason, nobody predicts the Cowboys to do squat. I saw far more "experts" pick the Giants and Eagles to win the division than the Cowboys this offseason.

But then if the Cowboys have a disappointing season, you'll hear them say, "This was supposed to be their year, the year we all thought the Cowboys would get the job done..." as if we fell far short of everyone's predictions.

people say the cowboys only play sucky teams

we are a sucky team, its not bias to say the eagles turn it around because they will

the cowboys wont. No fan in their heart sees the cowboys going on a run and winning games. this team is horrible cut and dry.

yes philly turns it around and we finish 4-12 this team is BAAAADDD

they love to see us fail. it improves their ratings. and they also have a thing for Sal Paolantonio. they can't get enough of that guy. our guy, ed werder doesnt compare to paolantonio. he's just dull.

The difference this year is that the December schedule doesn't include Mark Sanchez, Rex Grossman, Matt Moore, and Stephen McGee.


This year that crappy defense goes up against

Romo
Andy Dalton
RG3
Eli Manning


So that's the difference this season.

Didn't they crush us in Philly in the 2nd to last game of the season?

Dude, who cares? If we start winning they'll be talking nonstop about us turning our season around.

Sitting at 6-5 at the end of the Turkey day, and I think we are going to be on a serious RUN

Just got to get to 6-5 first

Look at Reid's record in December. Overall is very, very good.

It doesn't matter, they are not playing any bad teams from now until the end of the season

7-9 or 8-8

I know this isn't on point of the thread, but winning the 1st one in Philly is HUGE.

I really believe we can and will go on a run, IF we win Sunday.
