Anybody becoming impatient with our easy schedule games?

I'm feeling like I did in 2007: I've become suddenly so confident (over-confident) in the Cowboys that I am losing patience with cupcake games like the Dolphins and just want those to be over with already. I just want to skip them over, have them go as W's into the win-loss column already, and mentally just fast-forward to the goodies like the Packers, Eagles, Patriots, Saints and Rams games.

Mentally don't even care about Dolphins, Jets and Commanders.


Anyone else feeling this way?


(At the same time, I am well aware that even cupcake games can be nail-biters, like how Dallas only barely pulled out that 25-24 Monday Night thriller in Buffalo in 2007.)

All we've done so far is play divisional opponents as we are mandated to do twice a season. If you are getting impatient with that then you need to find another sport to watch. Be thankful for having some easier games on the schedule because the hard games are coming and they'll make you appreciate the easy weeks. We can only play who is put in front of us by our schedule so enjoy the ride.

Definitely not. If we were the Patriots with 6 championships in the last 2 decades and SB contention every single year in between, maybe. We haven't sniffed any meaningful success in 2.5 decades. I'll enjoy the road back to relevancy paved in any type of win along the way.

Yes, pre season games were more interesting playing these trash teams. I was looking forward to the Saints as the first “big” game but now even that has lost it’s luster with Brees out. I wish I could fast forward to the Packers game.

I enjoy decisive wins regardless of who they are against in the NFL, especially at the start of a season. Its a nice change for this team and a confidence builder. I do agree we're going to get a long, tough stretch this season that we'll need to stay healthy to get through.

No and heck no... Anytime we have a chance to get wins and build our chemistry is a good thing. Remember the goal is to first get in the playoffs, so what you're saying is a joke.

Nope! Let's collect all the wins we can before the much tougher games come along. I previously thought we'd do well to garner a 9-7 record, whereas, I'm now inclined to think anything is possible. Let's gather all the wins we can before facing the much tougher challenges, shall we? This team is going to improve steadily, as long as it keeps believing in itself. Greatness awaits those who remain positive and do their best. I love what we're doing!

No. The schedule is what it is.

It's not the Cowboys' fault all these teams suck. It's just on them to make sure they stay that way.

How can you be tired of this, when was the last time we were 2-0. Next week we will even be in rarer territory 3-0 I'm not sure if the Cowboys have done that in my lifetime, if it happened was in the 90s I don't recall.

No. Each game is needed for its own reasons, but I like the anticipation!

Taking the wins where you can get them.
Besides, I'm enjoying beating up opponents in grand fashion. More, please!
