And I don't think Romo and Witten going to Cabo had anything to do with the loss to the Giants. But that's all we continue to hear about. I guess you didn't sense the irony in my post. ;)
ah, I do actually do believe that in a sense, yet they did nothing wrong getting away from the game. I don't see how you think MM is manipulating them though with his bingo game, one thing has nothing to do with the other. He clearly senses a mental break from the game was needed, and whether or not it works is anybodys guess

Can't wait until Mayor McCheese whips out One-Heartbeat Ouija next week.

Lose one game and the team "is not built to withstand adversity." They won with a backup QB just the week before. They've won while missing many key cogs at points throughout the season. They've won without their LDE and starting DT for the whole season.

It's true that the team is challenged when they lose players at positions without poor depth. That's true of any team--nobody has depth everywhere. The Cowboys have so far shown a very good ability to withstand adversity. They weren't going to win every game no matter what. Look around the league at all the surprising losses recently: they happen.
In the last 25 years the Cowboys when facing injury adversity like they did last week and now for the next 3 or so, we know how things ended up. The next few weeks will determine if these are the same old guys, or more like the guys that were on the field prior to injuries taking over. We shall see for sure as last week was nutso, and the Ravens pulling a disappearing last night may be the start of another twilight zone kind of crazy week.

If so, we are really no worse off than others going through the same thing right now

We’ll see if this works better than the inspirational movies Garrett used to have the players watch.

If they lose this weekend they may implement a Paint with a Pal on Tuesday where he has people buddy up, watch old Bob Ross videos and try to paint the picture.
Speaking of Bob Ross, remember when Dak called out "Bob Ross" to indicate a draw play? I thought that was pretty funny....AND we actually gained a lot of yards too!! Haven't seen them use it since.

Mike M. pulls out #90.

"Hey, you may not remember me because I've been inactive for so long, but I'm Demarcus Lawrence, and I refused to get necessary surgery during an offseason as a negotiating ploy, and Jerry responded by making me the highest paid Cowboy in history."

"And great news, guys. I want to win a Super Bowl now."

If what you mean by "same old guys" is that the team doesn't really have the talent to be true contenders unless a lot of things go right, including injury luck, then I agree. Of course, most teams are in that position: the teams that go all the way tend to be those that have good injury luck (not always, but usually), and in particular, good injury luck at their thinnest positions. But for a lot of people around here, "same old guys" means something about mental fortitude etc. that I don't buy at all.

Again, you OBVIOUSLY missed the sarcasm. :laugh:

I'm being facetious about the reaction to come should one or the other outcome occur.

Playing brotherhood bingo must have been a unique team bonding experience.

Did Dak tell the story of how he and his agent turned an avg career into being the highest paid QB in the league?

If his career was average, why has Dak reached record numbers that only a handful of qbs in NFL history have reached??? If thats average, why haven't average qbs been able to put up the same numbers that Dak has in the history of the NFL????




I'll wait....
