Today felt different

[Jipper]

Hear me out....we have all been long suffering and know when we play a bad or medicore team we usually find a way to lose.

Today was the first time in a very long time that I actually had confidence we were going to win and it never felt in question.

Honestly...I think it's the defense....this team just feels different this year. Yeah we might blow it and get knocked out early, but the fear of losing to inferior teams has greatly diminished and its a good thing

The defense no longer makes terrible QBs like Glennon or Hill or Heinecke look like the second coming of Joe Montana.

 

[ChronicCowboy]

You felt that way cuz the Giants are not a serious opponent.

You felt that way cuz the Giants are not a serious opponent.

My point was in the past when we played non serious opponents we always stumbled or struggled....

Giants are next level not serious opponents

 

[cowboyec]

when we can run the ball like that and with this defense...we can beat anybody.
our pass game looked better with this run game.
thats the path forward.

 

[Jipper]

Giants are next level not serious opponents

Holy crap, yes I agree they aren't but the point again is when we have played not serious opponents in the past we played down to their level...today we did not

 

[jwooten15]

That’s and because Mike Glennon was playing QB lol. Fromm would have scared me if he played the whole game

 

[RS12]

The Gnats are a terrible team with a backup QB. If you dont feel confident about beating them, when will you feel confident about beating anybody?

 

[MarcusRock]

Today WAS different. I don't think I saw a GameDay menu thread by @Ranching

 

[CATCH17]

I’m confident anytime we face a division rival. They’re all trash.

 

[cowboyec]

no.
he felt that way because of 10yrs of garrett.

In the past we would have found a way to lose that one

Damn good point. I mean they straight dominate these guys now. And honestly? I can't remember the last time this team has consistently done that.

I agree but the problem is that in the playoffs you won’t get “inferior teams” and will have to beat comparable or better teams on the road

Dak needs to play better or we have no shot

The 2008 Lions would have beat the Gnats today.

Yup...today was better than last week....next week needs to be better and we need to play the AZ game like a playoff game...

Do that and we should be ready to rock come January

Agree.... for now.....

Meh, I could care less again....the Cowboys did what they wwre supposed to and it was refreshing to see them handle and opponent easily that they should have

 

[Jipper]

Agree.... for now.....

Ha let's hope we continue to agree next Sunday night as well!!!
