I'll be honest, I haven't read every post in this thread. I apologize if he's been asking for it.I ain't the one throwing insults around, you might wanna address that poster.
2) They like pretending they’re on this journey with the players/coaches and their fandom somehow contributes to the team’s success.
The fans who make noise for them in the stadium are helping them win.........Teammates.Unless you work for them, you're an outsider.
I like your spirit, tho.
lol I never said there was anything wrong with it. If people want to look way ahead , fine feel freePersonally I don't look ahead there's no reason to. But that doesn't mean there's anything wrong with it we're not the ones on the field
Man Alive, brother! Am I ever looking forward( ,,,er,,, btw,which is, in it's boiled down vernacular, equal to or greater than that utilized ahead casing-liner,ya know?) to some of these oft' quoted & superiorly queried claims of "when we're being forced to "find out" just who's who,once facing real nfl teams" , , , & we got a genuine half a fistful of em' on that upcoming itinerary.Personally I don't look ahead there's no reason to. But that doesn't mean there's anything wrong with it we're not the ones on the field
In the many years that I've been a member of Cowboys message boards, I've always seen two recurring fan sentiments that baffle me:
- "I would rather that our opponent be at full strength and have all of their players healthy so that they have no excuse when we beat them, than play an injury-weakened opponent" - really? You'd rather face a strong opponent and have only a 50% chance of beating them, than an injury-weakened opponent and have a 70% chance of beating them? A win is a win and a loss is a loss in the W-L column, no matter how you got there. Injuries don't factor into tiebreakers.
- "We can't afford to look ahead - we need to focus on our weak opponent this week. Let's not talk about the games that lie further ahead and focus only on one game at a time." If people who say this are referring to Cowboys players and coaches, then I absolutely agree - one game at a time. But oftentimes, it seems that people who say this are referring to Cowboys fans - they seem to think that if Cowboys fans get ahead of ourselves and start talking about Thanksgiving or December or January when it's still Week 3, that somehow our behavior on an Internet message board will cause the Cowboys players and coaches to lose games by losing focus - what gives?
A full& throughly complete national wildlife Superfunded investigation into this non-native rodent invasion, & upon a doctor's visual 'nod' of a possible 50% semi-functional recovery of our living national icon, appoint the Tom Brady as supreme chief of casing-liner command , In the utter Annihilation & complete eradication of this disease bearing & of quite possible truly epically proportionate worldwide plague Worthy preemptive precautionary measures,So, the Cowboys make it to the Super Bowl and play the Pats.
You find out Tom Brady gets hit in the head by a flying squirrel the day before and won't play in the game.
Your reaction to that is what?
While I believe Woods is decent, I consider him more of a backup type.I agree. That was my point on this statement:
"I could understand wanting a top talent at DT added but the obsession with getting a mega heavy weight DT is getting absurd."
Woods (6-0, 318) is a legit 1-tech.
Covington is a better backup 1-tech than they've had in recent years. They really didn't have one last year.
The Cowboys were too small at DT back in 2014 with Crawford and Nick Hayden. Both were under 300 (Hayden might have been right at 300).
This year:
- Collins 311
- Woods 318
- Covington 310 to 320 range
They drafted Hill in part because they wanted size without sacrificing quickness.
His was 6-3, 308 at the combine but reportedly played at over 320 at some points in college.
So I guess we should just skip the game this week huh? Ask the players what they would like to play against, privately they'll tell you GB without Rodgers. I've talk to NFL and NBA players off the court and field so I know, it's the people that don't play that are all cocky.
I hear you and acknowledge that does happen.Most of the data being presented is not objective. The data can often be misconstrued, and often the people compiling the data are questionable compilers at best.
However, I've seen many many people try to use the eyeball test as the endall conclusion, and that is also often incorrect.
Man, are you reading our responses?Definitely. If we were to do a survey right now, "Saints with Brees or without Brees?", I'd bet that close to 80% of Cowboys fans would say they would rather Dallas play New Orleans without Brees.
The 20% baffle me to no end.
Man, are you reading our responses?
I love matchups, I love tough matchups even better. I'd much rather face full strength NO and beat them.
If baffles me that you want the easy way out, that you want a cheap victory.
