Hey it is what it is - a win, but we beat a team with a ton of injuries with their third string QB who by the way has rifle arm and with the right system could start somewhere. He is tough as nails. The bottom line we still are a long ways from being a contender for a Super Bowl. I do think once we get everyone back healthy we can make a run and after that who knows.

Agreed. Simple as that. Worst ground game in the league at the moment. Passing game insecure, D getting turnovers again but still letting too many big plays happen (Hill playing like an RB lol).

It was like we were playing a practice squad in pre season with our A roster.

Oh, and where's that conspiracy crowd that calling out the refs all the time. This time NO had some really bad calls on them.

Look back at last year when Dallas was missing every position and the backup to that position

did the fan base of that team or the media say "oh Dallas had too many injuries" or did they throw a celebration like they beat the 92 Cowboys?

This is how the NFL works. Are we afforded the injury excuse? How about missing half our coaches? When all our starting DEs were out and we lost games, did we say it was from injuries? How about the oline shuffles?
A win in a win is a win is a win. Period. We've been a contender all season long.

The most dangerous thing is an injured animal that's cornered. I believe the same goes for an injured team that's fighting to stay alive.

There ain't no UTs in the NFL.

And Aikman said it, Hill had a splinter on his finger making great throws with it. So their banged up backup QB gave us a run for our money (pun intended)

Half the teams we play are below average.
We often lose such games
Whats your point?

I don't want to hear about injuries. we have had plenty of those and if anyone mentions them, they call it an excuse. defense has been missing starters. we were missing top 2 WRs, OL men injured, etc....and we lost games...so no, I don't care about anybody else's injuries. we beat them as we should have beaten them. their offense had missing pieces and our defense dominated. their defense was at full force and a good defense and we scored 20 points. I take it.
