I am shocked by the negativity

Folks I am as harsh a fan on this forum as any. I have gotten a lot of hate for it over the years.

I am feeling pretty good about the season right now. 7-3. Parsons is a beast. Dak is playing great. Diggs is a beast. CeeDee looks great. Zeke has had a nice recovery. No more Jaylon. We own the division. What did you all expect? KC without 2 of your top pass rushers. No Cooper. No Smith. It was a tough ask. Defense definitely tightened up. That’s encouraging. Real encouraging. Who here wouldn’t have signed up for 7-3 in July? I don’t understand why people are so negative. The situation is much better than we thought it would be. Defensive help is on the way and we get Smith and Cooper back. This team will find that other gear.

Cowboys fans in general dont understand football.

7 and 3 as of now. Could be 7-5 by the Friday after next. I think Dallas fans have seen this all before, A Ground Hog day movie that's been retreading for 25 years. I tried to be positive but at some point you need to be realistic also. I mean after every lose we get a gimmick to get the team to refocus and win a game. Last time Monkey Butt:facepalm: I mean either your team is committed to be great or they are not. IMO??? This team is NOT!

Getting dominated 2 of the last 3 games is a cause for concern.

On the bright side there is no dominant team in the NFL this year.

Steele can’t play LT. No Gregory and Lawrence. No Smith. That is prime trench talent. It makes a big difference.

I certainly hope to. I'm frustrated because all I know is this team collapsing when they are starting to look like the season might be special.

Or could be 9-3

Before the season I bet 90% of the fans would have said they'd love for the team to start off 7-3. There's no team in the NFL really dominating this year.

I am happy with our record in all honesty. I just don't like the feeling that the wheels may be coming off. Coop getting you know what, Smith being out as long as he has been, CeeDee getting injured, and being without our 2 best pass rushers. I'm getting that sense that the wheels are starting to go in the way I'm accustomed by now to seeing.

We have played 3 of the better teams and lost to 2 and squeaked by one

that’s not “negativity”, that’s a fact

No one predicted we'd go undefeated. 13-4 or 12-5 is still good to me. We want to get hot in the playoffs, am I right? So losing 2 of the last three is no big deal. The way I look at it is... we're saving our best for last.

I'd rather we be playing our best football in the playoffs instead of playing our best football in the middle of the regular season. So I'm not worried about where this team is at right now. I'm focus on the outcome not the journey.

Remember, that was the best team we will see until playoffs (if we get in)

Common sense always goes out the window with losses around here. Legitimate concerns are the OL and Moore getting out coached. I don’t think there’s cause for concern on winning the division. Yeah, they’ve lost 2/3 but we surely didn’t expect them go undefeated. McCarthey’s 1st half clock management issues are also of concern. As long as this team hits the playoffs with a couple of wins at the end of the year and are relatively healthy before the post season starts, I’m not worried about it. Not yet at least…

The Bills do not seem too worried and this can be said about them. The Chiefs were dominated for most of the first half of the year and they do not seem too worried.
