That's the sad part. Hoping to lose for the sake of change. Knowing that the change probably wont matter. I'll take the wins.

That was part of it. Whining about Garrett... Jerry Jones... play selection... no success since whenever. Boy they just dredged up one negative after another.

All of a sudden the refs "won" the game for the Cowboys...

I think its fair to say that the refs contributed. Not that Im complaining.

Me, I'm taking note. As ZZ Top once said, it's downright strange.

Take away some good fortune, like bad calls and drops by Rams receivers, and we prob dont win. Yea we won. And it was an exciting win in many respects. But there is a myriad of reasons for concern going forward.

With this team under Garrett its hard to celebrate wins at times. Lets not be so hard on the fans.

I hear you but those same things happen in every game every week. Maybe not pick 6s but mistakes. It's part of sports.
I'm no fan of JG but he does get the team to play with all they have. He's not calling plays so I'm ok with him.

Take away a missed tripping call on Murray's fumble and they probably don't score that touchdown. How about that ticky tack call on MO to extend the drive. Dallas has had enough bad calls go against them to cause them to LOSE games that I'm not gonna look a gift horse in the mouth. Enjoy the win. Very few games are perfect because a team played a perfectly officiated game and played perfectly to beat the other team who also played perfectly. It's nice to have it go our way once in awhile.

Our offense is really going to have to be firing on all 4 cylinders and they will essentially be a form of defense by keeping the Saints off the field.

Terrible matchup for Dallas, this is one of the teams we just can't beat (2009 excluded) embarrassed in 2

Generally speaking it has been.

The Cowboys have been using the soft-zone through the last two defensive coordinators and Brees with that not-the-strongest-arm-in-the-world combined with terrific accuracy just picked those zones apart.

I'm anxious to see the Cowboys play the Saints using much more press coverage to disrupt those timing patterns.

Exactly right.

Austin isn't a bad QB at all. Yeah, he did give us a couple of turnovers because of his inexperience... but he is mobile, accurate and holds his **** together.

The guy is much better than Hill, IMO... and frankly, I think he's better than Bradford. He's going to be a good QB in the NFL IMO. Of course, I did graduate from Southern Miss and I did get to see Austin first hand here... but regardless of what his record was in college (not good), he was a very solid QB. With a good team around him he would have won many more games. I also saw Brett Favre here first and, and while Austin is no Favre... he is good in his own right.

The point is, yes Brees is a really good QB, but minus the INT's, Drew couldn't throw much better passes than Austin did today.

True its part of the game.

I was thinking in the first half this is so typical of a Red coached team. Win last week and then come out playing like this the next week. For all the talk of stacking good days on good days, Ive often wondered why we cant stack good games on good games. We came away with a win and things worked out in our favor for it to happen, but it happened because Red's guys dont quit. Thats to his credit.

Now if we can credit him for a team that stacks good games ontop of good games then we'll know the process has finally started to make some headway.

So the iggles have to be terrified right now. They had to come back against a terrible 0-3 Jaguars team. They had to come back from a 1-2 team that only beat the terrible jaguars. And gave up a big comeback against a terrible team that is now 1-2 who only beat the terrible jaguars team. See how easy it is to knock any team around in the NFL right now?

Yeah . Your right. Talk is cheap.

How many playoff games have the cowboys won in the last 20 years? How many have the eagles won?

We have the prolific Saints O next week and the ownership of this team Sean Peyton has had on us, since he left...if this nobody QB that looked 16 and was maybe only a few yrs older than that, carved us up like he did today, what the H will Brees and Jimmy Graham do to us next Sun night?? The only saving grace is I think we'll be able to run for 200+ yds on them easily and keep him off the field alot...

Dude if you don't want to pooh pooh on the win then don't.

A road win in the nfl is hard to come by, just look at Lions Packers.

Agreed. Honestly though with this defense and Romos back I didn't see us winning many games. We still may not, but I am going to enjoy the ones we do. Like you, I'd like to see a Jimmy Johnson prepared team every week. For now a no quit team is ok.

I must be missing something, is their a point to this thread?

BiffWellingtonIII · Sep 21, 2014

Make no mistake they handed us the game as well as the Cook drop.

This team is bad ,don't be fooled terrible from atrocious tackling to the QB who kills all chance of surprise by running the PC to 0.

Murray is on pace for a fumble tally in the double digit sphere . Where's the coaching ?
Tom Coughlin turned Tiki Baber into a PB , SB back by teaching how NOT to hold the rock and how to protect it.
Jimmy would never tolerate this .

We're going to really need to tighten up in th secondary going forward to have any hope for a WC:

Gotta enjoy it. Wins like this are exciting and fun.
