Why all the negativity?

No faith at all in the defense and no faith that Dak could really take us to the Super Bowl. Good QB and all but I have yet to see him really lead a playoff win. He struggles in the second half against tough teams to score points. We saw it many times in 2019. Minn, New Orleans, New England, Philly. 1 GWD since 2018 and that was one play after the onside kick recovery.
There have been much worse QBs who made it to the SB.

Serious question....I was a player or coach for 36years and every year brought new hope. We busted our butts in the weight room, film room, 7 on 7 tournaments and by the time the season started we had hope. We had some great years and some bad years, but none of the teams that I was involved with ever quit, cry, pout....as a fan, I get the frustration, but why all the negatives? Why make yourself miserable? What's wrong with just enjoying it and not complain about things you have no control of?
It's cool to have different options and outlooks....I actually enjoy reading a lot of the negative posts, it's pretty comical. To each their own, I guess....I just don't get it.
Salud! I'll enjoy a drink while some of you start attacking me! Lol! Be happy!
Some CZoners just want to be contrarian; some other posters...they are fans of other teams that trolls to get Cowboys fans ire.
Apparently Cowboys fans want to discuss whether someone's opinion is negative or positive more than they want to just discuss football.
And there are Cowboys fans that continually rant about the Joneses or the players' salaries instead of discussing football.
When the preseason exhibitions start - take note of commenters that don't bring up or take part in discussions about those games....be it a rookie making a good/bad play, how a particular drive went, etc. Those 'fans' will engage in the sarcasm mode or make outlandish statements that have nothing to do with anything happening on the field.

I don't think there are many, if any surreptitious fans of other teams here. Most are upfront, and give the respect they get, from what I've seen.

1 playoff win in 5 years with this QB
No NFCCG appearances in 25 years
One of only 3 NFC teams to not even make it to the NFCCGin 20+ years
Forget about SBs in 25 years

Why the “positivity” would be a better question
this is whole truth to this thread. as the years go by it is getting more difficult to be positive about this team no matter how good they may be doing. just know that this team will self destruct and the same problems that have hurt this team the last twenty six years will happen.

It's a forum for all opinions. Cowboys have to sway the negative to a positive. They haven't done that. Will this be the year? I think the current state of the team is definitely improving. I liked last years draft and this years draft and I liked seeing the team make D a priority.. a real priority!!

Shoot. I'm just laying low here while I'm waiting for swing choir to become a thing.
I just know it's about to happen!

I just don't see how the D is that much better. I don't care who your coach is. If you don't have the talent...

im a renewed fan year to year and have hope and positivity for the new season..i look forward to every story, offseason drafts etc etc September cant get here fast enough. Football is only 16-17 games and 8 home games plus one and done playoffs its here and gone before you blink so i,try and appreciate every moment..TRY..lol

DFFL no doubt bleed blue and silver..

the negativity from my end comes towards fans not the team..some zoners ,yes some, you are referring to as almost anti-Cowboy fans get under my skin and ill lash out hard core, benching or not..it gets old, weighs on me for sure..

sure we can discus some players/coaches/owner and critique them ie some constructive criticism is ok its normal but the constant bringing in the 25-30 year narratives, every coach, player, owner GM scout and draft picks all suck attitude's,

im hitting back hard because IMHO the NFL is year to year league now..anything's possible regardless of the year before..

Go Cowboys!!!!:flagwave:

I think some of these people just love pouring urine in their breakfast cereal because they like the taste. Reality is fine. Criticism is fine. Not liking a move is fine. But finding fault with literally every move or non-move made by the Cowboys is just beyond jacked up in my opinion.

I figure some team has to win a SB and every year I am hoping it is the Cowboys. And MOST years, they actually have a shot at getting it done whether they win it or not.
