Well then enjoy your little cliche. I'm a fan I pull for my team you do what ever it is that makes you happy.

Please stop comparing us to NY, they have a competent coach, Competent GM, competent Dline, competent Oline, 2 time superbowl mvp QB, and have actually made a run as a wild card team to win a superbowl.

Who doesn't pull for the team? We all do man, that is why we are here every day talking about them. We just have different opinions. That "Cliche" is true when it comes to the Cowboys of the last 16 years.

Four of our losses were by an average of 5 points each. And all four of those games were decided by one score or less. One play either way in those games and we are 10-2.
So simply based on facts we do have a shot whereas there are some teams who are at 6-6 that don't have a shot. Why? Because we were able to win games within our division which includes the current World Champs who we beat.

I will compare whatever I want, you don't like it too damn bad. I'm sick and tired of whinny little fans like yourself. You don't have to support or back this team. That is your choice
Telling me what NY did in the past I could careless, go pull for the Giants they seem to be a team who can support

BS you don't like the player, the coach the owner pretty much not a damn thing. What has happened in the past is in the past they can go out and win they are not destined to do anything.

No offense, but we were saying THE SAME THING LAST YEAR.

I don't like the owner, I don't like the coach(s) and I don't like some players. That is true. That doesn't mean I don't support the team and pull for them. There are a lot of players I like a lot. Murray, Claiborne, Carr, Lee, Smith, Carter, Bryant, Harris, Beasley, Church, Ware, etc. Also, I bought 4 PSL's for 30k when the stadium opened, I tailgate at a ton at the games, I have followed this team with passion forever. So please stop with the dumb comments about me not being a fan of the team.
I'm just tired of people comparing us to the Giants saying.. "Well they were 6-6- and went on a run" when everyone knows they were fully capable of doing because of their coaching and personnel and our team this year isn't. Even Jerry wants the Cowboys to be more like the Giants. Heck, they have 2 superbowls wins in 6 years.

I'm comparing the situation. Yes a football team was 6-6 and went on a run, they started getting some players back and got on a run.
Cowboys too are getting some guys back a key weapon is starting to play at a much higher level and we have a shot. Uphill battle no doubt.
As for my comment of you being a fan? hard to tell since all you bring is the same old BS.
As for their coaching? Coughlin has seen the hot seat more than once guess what fans do not have a fricken clue, you talk about coaching as if you could do the job yourself. Hell many of the games had nothing to do with Garrett there were plays there for the taking it is up to players to go out and execute. When I see a WR open and that catch can seal the game and he drops it? It is not the HC, it is not the play he called it is the player who failed. Coaches around the league have a better clue of what is going on that you think. I know you like selling yourself as some expert your not you are a fan with an opinion nothing more than that

And, that is last year. Not this year. Should we, based on last year, simply forfeit the rest of the season?

Selling myself as an expert? What are you talking about? You just make up a bunch of nonsense. First you say I'm not a fan of the team because I don't see things like you and then you say I'm trying to come off as an expert, etc. Slow down man, learn to respect others opinions.
Now, on to Garrett for a second. You say it's not his fault players execute? Are you saying that he is a good coach and deserves to be our head coach here? We come out week after week with the same vanilla plays, players are undisciplined, they never get benched for playing bad out there, they make the same boneheaded penalties game after game, putting in players like Ogletree when there are other WR's on the team like Harris and Beasley and on and on. That falls on the head coach.

No, I'm just trying to explain to you that we are seeing some of the same things as last year and it looks very likely that the team will crash and burn. Should we give up? No.. but should be honest and realistic about our chances? yes.
Remember the definition of insanity? The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.
That sounds like the Cowboys of the past 16 years.

I heard this for the past 10 years.. IF we won this game and IF we won that game
