Default We are so bipolar...

just a few days ago, everyone was horrible. Now we are giving game balls to our whole team. I don't think we are this good or that bad. Fergy's play was better than I had seen in the past, but most others performed at a level that they should be expected to perform.

Bledsoe was hurt in the first game, and everything went downhill after that. We weren't that bad, we just were put in bad situations cause of Bledsoe's injury.

We didn't play our best this week at all, we just made a little less mistakes, especially Bledsoe. This team can play better, maybe it is the BP in me that doesn't pat everyone on the back yet, lol.

I don't know about everyone else but I was a bit sick last night like BP.

We still played badly, there is no way around that, but a win helps you forget the poor play until it shows up again.

Just like Bledsoe having a good game helps you forget how bad he was last week - until it shows up again and then you remember!

I don't think we will see Parcells pat these guys on the back anytime soon. Last time he did they turned around and tanked on him. I see BP keeping the heat on this team

"We" are not bipolar.

The collective mood of the board swings up and down each week, as is common regarding the 16 week schedule.

No biggie. Losses give people who are unhappy with the team an opportunity to let loose. They don't have much to complain about this week. As individuals, I think you can find alot of consistency from poster to poster.
victory is ours

I'm not getting on anyone, just think it is kinda funny. I know its always like that, but I thought I would share what I found humor in. Sure we are up and down, I just find it humorist how much we can swing.

Cowboyszone could use some lithium, lol.

Well if you have been on any fan board long enough, this what it is typically like, nothing different. Its not exclusive to this board or cowboys fans.

The mood has definitely lightened this week compared to last.

But luckily for us, we're just fans. A win makes up happy, and a loss doesn't.

We have a bye, but I hope we don't take the Volunteers, I mean, the Titans, too lightly. They can easily come out and bite us in the buttocks.

2-1 heading into the Philly game would be sweet. But a loss to Philly, and we're right back to doom and gloom.

I can't see us losing to the Titans coming off a bye as we will be. They are probably the worst team in football.

As an aside, do you still think the Redskins have "figured us out" as you claimed at half time last night?

Had we lost...there would not have been enough to go around.

I understand where you are coming from. I think we all know this team has serious potential on both sides of the ball, and to see us beating ourselves frustrates us like crazy. We won, but did not even come close to playing where we can and hopefully will soon.

We beat ourselves in Jax...period.

We allow the foreskins to play with us until Vandy hit that FG...should have been a 35-3 game IMO.

Until we come out a few weeks in a row and play clean we will stay on pins and needles.

I truely think if we play clean...we can beat anyone. I honestly think that, but the mistakes are concerning still.

You give us too much credit, the mood changes from play to play. One play and Parcells is a genius, the next one and he is just dumb senile "boobs".

This is a message board. Overreactions are a pretty common thing when we have all week to talk about one game.

I agree that Dallas can't afford to take any one lightly. However I think more than just the fans are happy about this win, I think that Cowboys locker room is feeling a lot better today than they did last week. This was not a perfect game but it is a win against an inter-divisional opponent and the players should be feeling very good about how they rebounded from last week. I try to live by the old saying in sports “Never get to high when you win and don’t get to low when you lose”
