Josh Allen has won a Super Bowl? Let me ask you a question. Of these “top” QBs as you say. Who’s put up 400 yards on a Bill Bellichek defense? In foxburo? I’ll wait for your response

There ya go, you thinking, well Allen don't belong.

Dude, don't talk a game, one performance, look at the career. Brady, Mahomes, Wilson, Rodgers,on a whole on other level and Dak has no business being paid their kind of $$$$.

Kansas City is the only city in two different states. So of course our 'Boys were dysfunctional. Heck they didn't know where they were at.

:huh:

Again, it doesn’t matter. You said it in the title yourself. No excuses. So why did you just make up some in your post? Every team is injured, but not every team uses that as a crutch and excuse when they lose.

It totally matters who is injured, how can you not get that? Not an excuse a reality, who you are missing a real big deal.

Just watch the betting line move because of injuries.

You new to football?

I do think it's hilarious that there is this narrative that "the Chiefs shut down the #1 offense in the NFL." Uh no they didn't.. they shut down 75% of the #1 offense in the NFL.. LOL! Good for them.. but let's not get carried away..

The ironic part is the Cowboys D all but shut down the Chiefs offense considering. 19 points is a bad game for the Chiefs. Especially considering how many times they got the ball. Outside of the first quarter the Chiefs offense looked as bad as the Cowboys.

Its the opposite actually. Dak is playing as well as any of them and better then some. Top 3 in league MVP at this point.

We all knew that going into the game (save Lamb) yet more than 80% of fans here still predicted a Cowboys win. Any crying after that is an excuse. Injuries, refs, the sun was in thier eyes...blah, blah, blah.

Beat us when they had a full squad.

Dallas was without Amari Cooper, Tyron Smith, Demarcus Lawrence, Randy Gregory, and CeeDee Lamb (2nd half).

And it was somewhat close thanks to the defense.

We just need to get full strength.

:starspin:

However, we got the crap knocked out of us by a depleted mediocre Denver team that was missing three of their starters on their OL. They had just traded away their best defensive player and Patrick Surtain went out of the game early. Several of the players we’ve been counting on all season didn’t step up against KC. All our receivers had drops except for Dalton Schultz. Zack Martin gave up a sack. Pretty much everyone played bad except for Parsons. Some of you can use the injury excuse all you want to make yourselves feel better but the fact is the Cowboys still aren’t good enough. I can’t think of a playoff loss we’ve had the past 26 years where we didn’t have a relatively healthy football team. The excuse fans use then is the officiating. Fans need to just come to grips that the Cowboys still have a ways to go. Championship teams find a way to win with missing players. The Cardinals are still winning despite the loss of Kyler Murray and DeAndre Hopkins. That’s their two best players! They’re going to be a very difficult team to beat in the playoffs. The Cowboys on the other hand appear to be a team that’s not going to get any further in the playoffs than in previous playoff seasons. That’s just my honest opinion.

This sums it up perfectly but some hopeless and ditzy optimistic is going to try and debunk this. Everyone is battered and bruised at the end of the season. The elite teams overcome that. Dallas aint elite of they can’t survive one LT going out of the lineup (I mean seriously how does an ENTIRE line fall apart when missing one person?)

Work with me...

When did all those guys sign their contracts? How did Dak stack up with his accomplishments vs theirs? He wasn't close, so where did he think he deserves the same $$$$, based on what?

Don't care about week 11 of a 17 week season.

Chiefs came with playoff intensity....Dallas matched it only in a handful of players

They always try but they simply can’t come to grips with the truth. If we have some injuries they use that as an excuse and if we’re healthy they use officiating as an excuse. There’s a few fans that are so ridiculous they think the Cowboys haven’t won anything in 26 years because the league is biased against the team. I’ve seen on more than a few occasions where fans are claiming officiating crews are being paid off so the Cowboys will lose. :laugh:

Based on how great of a QB he is and his leadership.

Dak is playing as well as any of those guys. Those that understand football and the QB position see how great he is.

Team success or lack there of is a smaller part of the equation as the QB cannot control the strength of the team around him.

Brady is the GOAT.

I think the defense answered the Chiefs after the first few series. The offense just never got off the ground. Credit to the Chiefs defense for never letting up .. but I'm not about to sit here and act as if being without Cooper, Smith and Lamb was "nothing." I can't really converse with anybody willing to be that intellectually dishonest. Gallup, Wilson and Brown just don't threaten a defense the way Cooper, Lamb and Gallup do. It does highlight just how important it is for this team to be healthy come playoff time. The backups are backups for a reason..

Just saw the game again right now on the NFL Network.

There were at least three horrendous non calls that helped the Chiefs. One puts the Cowboys on the one.

With Cooper, Smith and refs getting it right we have a different game.

Dude, think I understand football my man, hahahaha!!! Ah 60 years will do that amigo.

Dak was asking for big boy $$$$ and had done nothing to deserve it, what about that don't you understand?
