They don't deserve it.
Even if the Cowboys had the #1 seed most people would expect the Cowboys to do Cowboys things.

Well, they are speaking about the past. This team hasn't played in the playoffs with this coaching staff, so who cares about the media and their opinions based off of old teams from the past. This team will write it's own history, and it starts Sunday. :starspin:

I had to laugh at the fools on Get Up today. They were showing how Dallas was undefeated against the East and 6-5 vs all else as if to be dismissive of their success.
First of all the Eagles are a playoff team. So the boys played the Giants and Skins 2 times each

But the Packers played the Bears and Lions 2 times each
The Titans played the Jags and Texans 2 times each
The Buccs played the Falcons and Panthers 2 x each

This happens in several divisions every year. Why single out Dallas. The Patriots made two decades of success on pumping up a good record in a bad division

smh
It's because they hate the Cowboys. They have always been jealous of the fortune and fame the Cowboys get. Plus, their hate on the Cowboys sells for ratings.

The fact that they don't get respect is a most powerful motivational tool, especially for the defense.

They need to lock down on the Broncos offense, this will probably be a low scoring game.

this morning on GMF. The whole panel basically thinks they are losing this week. Saying pretty much same old Cowboys. Said they really didn't beat anyone this season. Until the Cowboys make a playoff run this will always be the narrative and it should. Here's to hoping they finally shut some people up because the truth does hurt.

The truth coming up for this team is not here yet...
fake news

I'm not scared because if we can't beat the Niners then we were never going to beat TB and GB on the road anyways.

They have Jimmy G. I'm not a Dak guy at all, but Dak is better than Jimmy G. When my team has the better QB then I like my teams chances.
I think the cowboys match up better against buccs.

Do you blame them? No one will respect Dallas until they do something. And even then, it will be backhanded compliments. You should be used to it by now.

SF is the sexy pick this week to win.

It’s simple. Respect is earned in the playoffs. Period. We win 2-3 playoff games- minimum- we may get a little respect. At this point why should the Cowboys be “respected”? And they’re my favorite team. Just keepin it real.

I get it.

Honestly, the boys haven’t been consistent since the Denver game.. blowing out bad teams with backup QBs and losing to good teams with franchise QBs. They just don’t have the momentum and / or mojo they had in the first 6 games.

Meanwhile the 9ers have a lot of momentum beating good teams, especially the Rams (a division rival no less)

but hey, it’s playoffs time and everyone is starting a new season. If teams (Cowboys) were coasting, it’s time to nut up and go into overdrive

One thing this Cowboys team needs to shake off is the "guilt by association" ploy the talking heads in the media always play.

We're all well aware of how long this team has failed in the playoffs. But this started a long time ago when Aikman, Smith, and Irvin were still the franchise cornerstones and Dak Prescott was three years old.

These aren't those Cowboys, nor Parcells' Cowboys, or the Romo/Wade Phillips or Romo/Jason Garrett era teams. They're not even the same Cowboys that Dak Prescott quarterbacked in 2016 and 2018. None of us have seen a McCarthy coached Dallas team with Dan Quinn's defense in the playoffs.

In summary, lets give them a chance.

I agree with you.

But they won’t respect Dallas at all.

Beat SF? HA! You were supposed to beat a subpar team

Beat Brady? He’s old!

Beat Rodgers? Bum toe. You would never beat him if he’s healthy

Etc etc sadly

Who cares? If we keep winning, Why would we need respect from anyone? Winning takes care of everything.

The cardinals give up 4.6 YPC in the run game. The cowboys give up 4.5 YPC.

I get it, I just want them to shut people up. I hope they are sick of hearing it,

Good. Dak always plays better when he goes into “prove the haters wrong” mode.

In fact— this whole team plays better when they are the underdog and disrespected. Hope they come out pissing vinegar on Sunday afternoon bc it’s gonna be an old fashioned street brawl
Yep, the Cowboys always play better when everybody says they are going to lose.

You know, I was thinking the same thing today; but even on the DC own radio shows like The Break and Talking Cowboys. The general tone is that the Cowboys are flat and hitting a niners team that’s in stride.

Cowboys are seemingly the “favorites” by record only.
