I've never felt morale so down on a team probably since the 07 loss in NY. There's just a lack of belief that this team is different. Sad part is I believe the locker room may feel that way too. This is the moment in which we hope McCarthy knows how to do his job and inspires these young men.

Morale of the fans always hits rock bottom after a loss

nevermind the fact theyre 11-5......lose one game and its time to tank, time to pack it up

The locker room imo is fine, if athletes cant handle losing a game then they need to find another sport to play or not play sports at all

I think it was the realisation for many people who went out on a limb to give him every chance, whether they be players, fans or others part of the team set up, that Dak Prescott is unlikely to get the team over the hump regardless.

Unless Aaron Rodgers walks through that door to make McCarthy look good then I wouldn't hold my breath.

maybe he can take the team go-cart racing.

The Cardinals loss stings because we are 1-4 against teams with legit QBs.

Our offense gets behind in a game and immediately gets pass happy and we are just not the same team.

It’s frustrating because we all know we’re about to play some good QBs and our team sucks against them because our offense tends to start slow and go into a shell until it’s too late.

We can also depend on officials to screw us over so that’s another thing we have to overcome on top of our own team playing awful.

We are a jeckel and Hyde team. Clearly 2 disting teams.

1. We are nearly unstoppable on offense.
2. The other is where we play offense only in the 4 th quarter.

We will just have to see which shows up in the post season.

I'm not sure about what the team is feeling. No doubt, fans are not feeling good about the Cowboy's chances in the playoffs. But I suspect the team is feeling better about the playoffs.

The AZ game changed nothing for me. It confirmed for me again that this team can't win against good teams playing B and C level football. It's got to bring its A game to beat a good team. However if they do bring their A game I simply don't see a team out there they can't beat. What I don't know is how to ensure that they bring their A game.. What's the magic bullet to get them to all play like their hair is on fire every snap for 60 minutes? I suppose if the coaches knew we wouldn't see these sleep walking stretches as much as we do..

You could see the side eyes he was getting when he couldn't hit wide open wr's in the short passing routes. He literally was non existent for 3 qtrs then finally showed up. His problem is he's become very thin skinned and is justifying this roller coaster play he's showing. He looked exactly like this in college and has looked like this in pro career he is what he is we just have to make enough plays around him to survive his mediocrity

1 and done in the playoffs. I doubt we can even win against AZ at home in the WC round. We don't even have an advantage at home.

This all falls on the QB and the OC. Can the OC stop being predictable and can Dak gain the confidence to throw vertically and with ease as he's shown in the early part of the season - all in a couple weeks? Doubtful

Lots of teams are doing that this year. Buffalo has done it quite often.

Tampa barely escaped the Jets. What are there fans saying today? I mean yes they won, but it was the Jets. And a rookie QB.

Stafford has thrown 6 ints in his last three games. Think the fans are nervous?

GB is beating bad teams too….by the skin of there teeth.

Philly just made Henike look like a real QB. How did he look against us?

Zona just got off a three game snide.

We see it through our teams eyes but everyone is up and down.

After we beat the Patriots, I felt it was fate...finally, THIS would be the end of mediocrity. The Cardinals game was different; it crushed any hope I had that we are no longer pretenders. We were healthy, at home, something still to play for, against a decent team...and we looked like fools out there. Outcoached, our "stars" were no-shows against back-ups, stupid penalties, stupid special teams, no awareness. I guess the bright spot is that as bad as we played, a smarter coach would have kept us a timeout to get the ball back on that fumble. But then we still would have had to go down and tie or win.

I think Dallas is in trouble even more so if they lose to Philly this week.

Actually after rewatching last weeks' game, I'm confident we beat the Cardinals if we face them day 1. If we can clean up - just a little - 3 or 4 of these:

1. The penalties
2. The Run game play calling - get outside for crying out loud.
3. The Shadowing of Murray - Someone other than Parsons.
4. The Drops
5. Dak's confidence to run when he has open space
6. McCarthy's in game decision making
7. Greg the Leg's confidence. What happened to this once deadly dude.

We can beat these guys. Bring them on!!!!!

No team is dominant this year! If the Packers were not at home for the playoffs, they would have a very good chance of losing. I still think someone will beat them at home.
