So in 2011 a new era of Cowboys football started?
2011.....no playoffs
2012.....no playoffs
2013.....no playoffs
2014.....Wildcard Win over Detroit (Romo QB)
2015.....no playoffs
2016.....lost first playoff game (Dak QB)
2017.....no playoffs
So lets recap this "new era" of Cowboys football, shall we.
I count 7 seasons.......missed playoffs 5 times......2 trips to playoffs, Romo beat Lions, Dak lost to Pack
So the only thing we have to show for this new Cowboys era the past 7 years is a single Wildcard Win by Romo?
So, in 2011 an era STARTED. That is with cap accountability and player acquisition...bam, an All Pro. OL Smith...
Now, you tell us all, what players were added and when from there...that was provided as well, as the offensive line was coming back to life.
But Tony Romo was injured more than a single season...and until Dak was drafted, just who was leading the Cowboy's team in Romo's absence. I guess you think that also wasn't relevant...as late as 2015?
So, the team started to change in 2011, as to players on roster...and from 2014, it started to change as to team play and success.
The Cowboys WOULD have been in the NFC Championship if not for the Dez rule, that has been reversed NOW, and Dez's catch ruled now, a catch. That WOULD have put the Cowboys in the NFC Championship game, the further development of play at the playoff level for this team.
According to a snapshot with agenda, that just isn't relevant as well.
2016, the defense was on the wrong side of development, but lost to Green Bay in the final few seconds, but 3. Just keep in the presented text above...that was lame and just piss poor.
Guess what, last season, the team played without one of the league's MVP candidates, Elliott, for six games...consecutively. But here again as stated above, just doesn't matter. Get into the real world and quit with the stereotypes all connected to a prepi's set of agendas.
Since 2014, Dallas has won at a level of 71%, when their starting quarterback was available. The Cowboys won just slightly less than New England! Ever hear of them?
As to a comparison between the Cowboys and the Patriots, tell me who does the better job at fixing their respective linebackers group, and I'll tell you who has the better team for 2018! Just tell me following next week's draft. You don't have to wait long to know...
Take the cop out of playoff wins and grab a mirror...now have fun.
