Some similarities:

Romo is like Danny White: A good QB who just couldn't get over the hump due to unfortunate circumstances in games (the three NFC Championship Game losses from 1980-1982); and then both were replaced by someone new (the White era gave way to Aikman; the Romo era gave way to Dak.)

Dak is in his 3rd year as starter. By his 3rd starting year, Troy had led the Cowboys to 11-5 and a playoff win (although they were subsequently routed by the Lions.)

So.........does that mean one more year to go?

Romo never made a conference championship. Danny White is Far more accomplished than him. Come on

It seems all the 90’s stars

Emmit
Troy
Micheal

All really believe this era of cowboys are special. It’s great how emmit mentors zeke and Troy texts Dak all the time.

We gotta stop doing this with the 90s comparisons....2007, 2014, 2016, 2018...

The 90's team, I remember Madden talking about how it was almost like an all star team, during one game. And heck the NFC Championship between the 9ers that was like an all star game. You just don't have teams in this era with that much talent on both defense and offense.

I agree. Two dominant teams with that much talent will never meet again due to free agency and salary cap restrictions.

I'm rooting for our guys. Buy compares to the '92 team? Nah. We have too many flaws, being realistically, and that '92 team was near perfect. I felt better about the 2016 and 2014 teams than I do about this one.

Many thought the 92 team had flaws to going into that SF game especially.
However in hindsight, in comparison this team does have more flaws.

I feel better about this teams defense than the 2014 and 2016 teams. But feel better about those teams offense than this years team. Except for RB.
