From Super Bowl last week to one and done this week

[snadler]

I think that’s how most cowboys fans feel right now, playing against a much better opponent than recent weeks, the awful coaching, Dak being terrible, the kicker being awful..the defense basically being a fraud..where as after the demolishing of WFT I was starting to buy in, after today I’d be shocked winning the wild card game against anyone

 

[Captain43Crash]

I did not see this coming!!

This team has to much talent to get beat up by a defense missing 3-4 starters. Dak was confused, we couldn’t run the ball, Moore was overmatched, and most of the holding calls were a joke( Conner Williams s the only one in the league that gets called for that penalty.

Zeurlien sucks too!

 

[Ranching]

That's the way it is....hell, the Jets almost beat Tampa today.

 

[KJJ]

That’s life with the Cowboys and this fan base. I wasn’t talking Super Bowl last week I know better. lol

 

[NeonNinja]

Yeah, beating up on WFT was a league-wide statement.

 

[Jake]

Yeah, beating up on WFT was a league-wide statement.

But they had CZ legend Garrett Gilbert playing QB.

Many acted like it was a major statement. Some were predicting we would blow out the Cardinals. The Cowboys fooled them again.

Exactly, look at the qbs the last few games during that win streak, all backup quality

Taylor Heinicke, Taysom Hill, Mike “pencil neck” Glennon and Jake Fromm. Not exactly the Mount Rushmore of QBs. Lol

Nah, just another paper tiger NFC Least champ likely to do nothing in the playoffs.

I mean we are just used to seeing same ole cowboys year in and year out
So being 11-5 - locked up nfc East etc and in playoffs we assume the worst

that’s why other fanbases no matter how their teams struggle against inferior opponents or sometimes even lose - they truly believe their teams are still the favs because they have done it before (ie packers , Bucs, chiefs )
25 plus years of well get them next year takes its toll on a fan base
I still hold out hope - first part is getting into the dance
We are
Now the rest us just semantics -

I mean think about it —- last week all many kept fretting about was having to beat the eagles back to back - many feeling it was an impossible feat /
Now it’s were screwed , we’re the 4 seed ..

How many of you would’ve loved to have been told we will end with a 12-5 or 11-6 record
Be in the playoffs
Win the division
And be the 4 seed ?
Allot stated we would go 8-9 or worse -
Again I get it 25++ years of almost and never to having a chance once again to just be one and done
But we have one still ? Not accepting - but still a chance

The truth is, they are not that good…
5-0 vs NFC East
6-5 vs everybody else.

Bottom line is Jimmy nailed it. Country club.

this team has a good win or a few good wins and they think they are great. That will never change as long as Jerry is he here.

Offense has been bad half the season. Defense shuts down bad QBs. Unlikely to go deep in the playoffs unless they pass rush is phenomenal and we stick with our run game.

Yep…..and look what happened to good old mahomes today. Lost against the bengals with a 20 point lead.

What run game? You types keep talking about a run game we don’t have.

Overreactions both ways
That's our fan base!

Jets? Bucs?

WTH?
What a diversion, Homer!

Like MM said in the presser, we know what we are. An average team in a really bad division. Good teams with real QBs will beat us in any meaningful game.
