Yeah but the Ravens didn't try to back into the playoffs in the NFC LEAST with an 8-8 record. They haven't been playing like this for half the season like we did.
who the hell was talking about this season? Remember when we were a 1 seed and lost to the giants in this same rd? **** happens, and it happens all the time in todays NFL where the difference between being 12-4 and 8-8 is RAZOR thin, and again backs up my claim that the coach doesnt mean a damn thing. They are all good coaches, but today, Tannehill made a couple of big throws, and his receivers came up with some great plays. Coaching doesnt have a damn thing to do with those great coaches by the titans tonight. Players win, and players lose..... almost always.

I really hate that we jumped the gun and hired McCarthy.

We could have had Mark Roman.

We should really give Dak some respect. This game shows ANY qb can have a bad game and Lamar is frontrunner for MVP. I actually like Dak's game better and I've stood by that all year.
I consider the exact opposite.

Ryan Tannehill, whom many have labelled and criticised as being a poor QB for several years, has just proved my point and that of many others.

He played with junk at the Dolphins where it was basically impossible to succeed for any QB.

He now plays for a team with reasonable talent, strong o-line and a running game. He suddenly looks like a million dollars.

Imagine someone like Sam Darnold with our O-line and weapons - he has been playing with junk at the Jets yet people refuse to take that into account in any way because he hasn't won many games. He hasn't thrown 30 touchdowns in a season even though he's running for his life behind a truly horrific O-line with his best throwing weapon injured all season and other best weapon not being utilised properly. So of course Prescott is in a different league or...perhaps did Prescott walk into the best offensive set up that a rookie QB has ever experienced...well he won 13 games so let's just focus on that.

Two points that I think are worth highlighting regardless: -

1. Concerning that Prescott is less mobile than he used to be.
2. We were poor on the road this season. A strong running game should travel anywhere. People will put this completely down to coaching but in reality, we went unbeaten on the road in 2014 so there's more to it than just that. Annoying as the Titans are what we should be/have been.

Someone quoted one of my sayings with McCarthy's mission statement tonight I had not seen that yet I hope he sticks to that and we should see some better football from the Dallas Cowboys thing I worry about the most right now is having 25 free agents I know probably half of them need to go away but that's a scary thought when you're looking at almost half your roster being free agents

Also, agree... however we know the Cowboys history with 2nd round picks. We would have got Jalen first round, then some no name DT in the second who would currently be playing for the Browns and showing how crappy Marinelli coaches up players.

If we had taken Jalen in round 1, we still would have needed a rb going into round 2, and Derrick Henry was sitting there. Not sure what draft grade we on him. Our history in round 2 is not great with far too many risks. I'm hoping MM is a better evaluator of talent.

Has any QB every win the Super Bowl without throwing for 100 yards in a game?

No, just saying it's not the flu.

Yes this is true. My point was I was so mad because I never get the flu shot and I thought I got the flu, but what I ended up with was antibiotics and an upper respiratory infection. So the flu shot works I’ll be getting it again when the time comes.

Our roster was not good, so who cares how many we lose?

I’m telling you man those pocket jerseys are cursed. Every time Dak wore them we lost. Now look at the Ravens, who are wearing pockets jerseys.
