Much worse.

That whole thing is getting blown up in about two months.

They'll probably assemble a better team faster than we will.

I want the Cowboys to win too. But if winning merely means we'll have a respectable record but not make the playoffs or not make the Super Bowl, then I'd rather lose, get a better draft position and increase our chances of getting players that will return us to our 90s-like dominance.

As fans, we can stake out such a position. The players can't, however, and rightfully so.

I don't think wanting the Cowboys to lose given the fact they're likely not going to make the playoffs means you're not a Cowboys fans. It may mean enduring losses now for a greater good later.

That's what fandom is all about.

I don't want the Cowboys to just win. I want them to be DOMINANT!

Whatever they have to endure to get there, I'll stomach for the greater good.

Awesome post.

I feel the same way. I'm all about whatever makes us better. Winning but not making the playoffs vs Losing and not making the playoffs....give me the losing.

I'll take the higher draft pick.

Problem is you have to do something with those higher draft picks. History shows JJ fails at that also.

I have him on one of my teams. It's a blessing really, as he wasn't producing but we were afriad to drop him. Now go get someone who will produce mroe than him--whcih should be very easy seeing that he gave us nothing.

Guys like Blackmon, Shorts, and Alexander are still available in some leagues. Maybe even Broyles. Also, Greg Jenings is returning and may be out there too.

Well you know real change is on their horizon. Hopefully they make the wrong decision.

Knowing the odds of them coming out and dominating anyone are slim, I'll take the W anyway I can get it and you'll just have to excuse my happiness whenever they get one.

Just me, tho. *shrug*

Pretty much. Because Carr and Mo have been a bunch of meh this season, especially Carr and his huge contract.

I don't have any problems with your position. I'm not saying you should feel the same as I do.

That's fair. is it okay with you if he considers us in the hunt as long as the percentages say we have a chance? Or must he change to think exactly like you?

Have the Eagles been mathematically eliminated yet?

We don't know really. No having Jackson helps us though. I really hope we win this game though and the Giants and Redskins lose.
