I referenced Cleveland because they have stockpiled some talent and are on the verge of being a good team.

Brilliant sir

Hello. The division this year was weak and we were 8-8. The Giants won at 9-7 when we had control and blew it. That was the reality of the season, not playoffs. The Ravens lost to Philly too..are they a SB team then? Your embarrassing the league when you use "almost" wins as putting us close. Please stop. We were 8-8 2 years straight and have a .500 over the last 16 years after winning 25 out of 30 years. You're either too young or don't understand these things. We are one of only 6 teams in this time period to win only one or zero playoff games. Think about that

So you are saying romo could be the right man since he has a career record of 55-38...going +17 to drag us up to a .500 record. Imagine if we had a defense the past 2 years straight....Think about that

I never mentioned that Romo is the problem. I do think your way off though on blaming the Defense. In at least 6 games last season the offense came out flat and failed for 3 quarters while the D kept us in it. The offense then would wake up in the 4th when the D was shot. In my book Garrett's offense was the downfall. No consistency. We could have win with that D at times. Not saying it couldn't improve but your wrong saying Romo wound have won. Also, though a fan of Romos, he has failed in big spots. Numbers see great behind crap oline but he hurts himself tearly too. For 16 years its been a full wide systematic failure because no parts are consistent.

My apologies. Didn't think I came off as "snippy". As for me, I know this team has been bad for a long time. I just hope for improvements, as far as personnel/coaching moves, etc... and look forward to the draft and the upcoming off-season. So I'm not sure if I'm looking thru "rose colored glasses", but meh, if I do.

Have to agree with his offense being a problem, but we also blew plenty of leads in 2011. I think they even set a franchise record on that..blown leads in the 4th.

Didn't mean to get defensive, As a Cowboy fan thats all we can do is Hope what other choice do we have. I just want to voice my opinion thats all Im just sick and tired of watching us swim in mediocrity for this long. Good for you that you're still optimistic.( I don't mean that in a sarcastic way) I know I'm a cynical right now and a tad jaded but thats where I am and I'm going to stew in it.

Probably set a franchise record for least points scored in the first half also in 2012.

You establish a lead and then beat teams up, the Cowboys were never really able to do that, the Patriots do that consistently without a real running game.

You look at these games this weekend and how the adjustments were made. The Harbaugh brothers and their respective staffs have their teams all in. They responded.

Two great football games played yesterday.

No offense but isn't there a redskin board you should frequent, Im just curious what possible incentive or motivation do you get from posting on here, Not to be rude I'm just thinking about it. if I would ever go on another teams board and have a discussion with their fans I really don't have the time to do that. Now Im not saying you don't have the right or by any means am I starting a fight with you Im just curious
