He might be right.
2007 team was good on both sides of the ball, but they peaked too early and had key injuries entering the playoffs. Lost to the SB winner.

2014 offense was outstanding (averaged over 40 in Dec) but the defense was average at best. Lost at GB

Hopefully, 2021 can take it to the house!

I thought jimmy might be angling for ROH, but dont thing jerry will like the "mine" bit.

The cowboys are looking better, and the defense is better than we have seen in many years.

But I am not ready to anoint them yet, the giants and eagles are both weak teams.
I am curious what BB will try to take away in the next game, as dallas has so many weapons, what do you take away?
I would try and stop the run game, make dak throw.
you cant let them run for 200 yds and expect to win.

Just said on the post game show.

I have to agree.
Well......jeds got the boys out there scraping his name off the ROH after that comment.......

BTW - Strahan said it. Jimmy fell short of stating it.

The 1994, 1995 and 2007 teams were better. I think this team is probably better than the 2009, 2014, 2016 and 2018 teams though.

People forget how loaded that 2007 squad was. They had the second best offense in the NFL, a legitimately good defense with a great pass rush, a top-5 OL and the best TE/WR tandem in the game. The fact that that team didn’t make it to the Super Bowl has been easily the most disappointing moment of the last 25 years.

2007 had better players but I think we have better coaches this year.

Stop it. Yesterday you said it was going to be a close game and anyone could win. And I told you it would be a blowout. And I actually think the backup running back it was better than Buckley. So and I think the backup quarterback actually played better than Jones. So

I think so to… Dimes was struggling and it looked like we’d prepared perfectly for him, as soon as they made the change they had more success in moving the ball.
Great win yesterday, 40+ scored on both the Giants and Eagles and we haven’t found top gear yet :D

We've seen this movie before. Many times. Success in the regular season and everybody getting excited.

Only to lay an egg in the playoffs.

If Jimmy thinks we've got something here far be it from me to disagree. But they're gonna have to prove it.

When they've qualified for the NFCCG, then it's game on. At least for me.

I was saying this earlier while watching the game. Well, not verbatim. What I was saying is this is first time since Aikman was QB that I felt comfortable with a 2 score lead.

I think a lot of that is the Defense. How long has it been since we've had a defense that wouldn't fold when it mattered?
