It's a crazy league. It's absolutely pathetic to fall behind that Rams team by 3 touchdowns but you still credit the comeback. You just don't let that fool you into thinking this team is any good. I can almost smell them thru the television.

I'll still be living and dying on every play next Sunday Night against the Saints regardless.

The "smell" is hanging around most of the teams in the NFL.

Coleman? He got overlooked by many but I noticed him in the preseason. He's my favorite FA nobody this year...

Xwalker and I noticed him as well and posted some pretty nice writeups on him. To be honest tho, I didn't think he would be this important of a piece but he and Bishop are noticeably better than Hayden in any aspect of the rotation.

I could care if Bishops loses track of the running back on occasion or will forget to get on one knee when double-teamed... his upside is... well... much higher.

This team erased a 21-0 second quarter hole on the road. I simply refuse to look on the dark side of that. People that complain about the defense or the one (and only) bad throw Romo made today are badly missing the point, but maybe I'm the naive one.

Your not. If we keep losing we are drafting the next Russell Wilson. That's the thought process.

And if we keep going 8-8 dum-dum Cowboys Fans will think we actually have a shot ......and buy tickets to see that awesome Tony Romo play...

Meanwhile, the rest of the country tunes in to the nationally televised games against decent teams , Just to see the Cowboys get whipped like a high school JV team by the likes of drew Bree's.......

So, Really. There really isn't a problem.....Jerry makes money. Tony and the rest our making money. Garrett is making money, the NFL is making money, and dum-dum fans in Texas and Cowboys Nation across the country tune in to the radio shows(so they are making money too) to rant and rave about the big win or big loss......and how well Romo looked or didnt look.

Why the hell would anybody want to change that????

I used to be just like one of those gripping fans. If you haven't learned by now losing isn't going to change what's going on in Dallas.
It's not going to change Jones, you know that. It's written above by you. But some thing is changing, just taking time. Did we draft JF?
That upset Jerry to no end. If it wasn't for those pictures Jerry would be in the press every day complaining about how he let the rest talk him out of it. Look at this O line, so far fantastic. He would never spend resources there. I don't know if it's JG or a combination of JG and Steven but things are changing. I just can't pray for loses because it won't make the changes any quicker. I'm just going to enjoy the ride and watch it come together.

Yeah. I agree with the drafts, althoug i think they have made some odd moves and choices during those drafts......yeah, they got a good guy, but, could they have got Frederick anyway plus another guy?

But I disagree with the losing. I think if this team played in any other division in the NFL, they would have three 5 win seasons and many , including Romo would be gone. But becuase it's the NFC east, they are "in the hunt" all the way until the end of the season......giving the impression of a good team......

And they are far, far from a good team. They literally have no chance against the stronger teams in the playoffs..........it's not even a contest. They cant compete......and they get whipped.
I believe changes would've been made in more of a drastic way, if they weren't artificially propped up by spectacular gunslinger play by Romo and a really bad, bad division......

I'm not going to lie, the title fits my mood. Though 21-0 is extreme, I watch these games and it's the hallmark of the JG era. Come out unprepared and flat. Furiously play catch up and win some or lose some. To me it fits the .500 mode but it is all in one game. I like the win but I'm WAY more cautious because I feel like this game isn't some turning point but something we've seen for awhile. I hope I eat crow because as a fan since the 70s I'm tired of it. But it isn't like this has happened before pattern wise. These are what I call Jerry games where we get another year of JG after .500 because "we didn't quit that one Rams game."

I'm tired of it too....it all seems so familiar.....so, already done. And in the end, amounts to nothing significant.....


I'm tired of excuses, I'm tired of beating the Rams by 3 points means...."we have a shot for one more week"


No , we don't. We don't have a shot. We aren't going to win a playoff game. It means ....nothing. Except a draft choice out of the top ten.......

Demarco Murray and fumbles. Still no problem?

Romo and terrible picks.

Luckily, we are playing the hapless Titans and Rams.

Same issues for 3 weeks for these two.

Anyone see Melvin Gordon? Perfect fit moving from the Wisconsin ZBS to Dallas. 1 fumble in 3 years.

It's most definitely a problem.
I'm sure there will be some heart-to-hearts with Murray this week and if they already happened last week and he still fumbled...

Trust has to be lost.
It just has to be.

We have no say in this equation, but I am terribly disappointed in Murray's consistent fumbling and hope that a solution is found sooner rather than later.

I'd be shocked if this team drafted Gordon. I like Gurley better, but they aint drafting him either.

we won Murray bounced back again...
Terrible post.
You can't go - oh well, that sucks and is becoming more than a trend, but hey! We still won!
How many times you want to give points away?

Romo will still throw interceptions and we aren't dropping the guy, so you want to say it's OK if we keep letting others give away points on top of that as long as we won that last game?

It's a problem and it needs fixing.
