I'll never understand fans' obsessions with these stupid "rankings."

This is pro football. They actually get to decide who goes to the playoffs by win-loss records. They actually get to determine who the #1 team is by playing actually games.

Who cares about rankings?

Dear fellow fanzone freaks---Skip Bayless on Undisputed just said today Oct, 3 2019
that pro football focus PFF power ranking for this week ranked Dallas Cowboys #1
in all of pro football even though they lost against Saints...folks...this makes sunday's
game against Packers the most important so far in early part of season and the most
important game of Dak's young career in my lowly opinion...because real good or elite
teams always bounce back strong after laying an egg clunker the week before...i am not
as worried that Tyron Smith is out because they will put fullback or tightend to help Fleming
and after listening to Moore interview the OC for cowboys...he will have a good game
plan for Packers and i know out O Line who are full of vets and are real stand up group
will have owned their poor play and learned from it and are very eager to meet Packer
defensive line with extra focus and motivation to play good....we got Gallup back too
and Cooper says he feels better than he did last week and Zeke is angry that he fumbled
and put hopes in refs to make right call..."dont leave up to the refs"...Witten dont fumble often
so you know he is extra determined...plus past two games against Pack at Jerry world Rogers
has pulled rabbit out of the hat...all i am saying...and i am not guaranteeing anything...that real
good or elite teams always bounce back with vengeance after being embarrassed the week
before...this game on sunday is so pivotel for Dak the team and Red-ball...this is red balls most
important game of his career...blow this one...its curtains...it may already be curtains after saints game?
With respect, I see a boat.

So we've still got the inside track to play in the Cotton Bowl? Awesome.

sorry all-- i took Bayless word for it ..after i read for myself dallas ranked 5th...i dont know what Bayless was explaining then?...it was todays undisputed with Shannon Sharp and Rob Parker and Skip Bayless "will cowboys get back on track verses Packers"?...that is the show where Bayless says it..and its right at the end so you dont have to go through whole thing...but the rest of what i said is true...
Yea, Skippy is a huge homer. All too often fake news and click bait.

The OP learned a valuable lesson. And that lesson was to never believe ANYTHING that comes out of Skip Bayless mouth. Or any talking head for that matter. Now, the OP just needs to learn to stop watching those buttheads all together and his life will be much happier.

Right they act as if it is the NCAA where it actually means something. For which they need to expand they playoffs so it takes out some of the poll rankings.

I only see or hear what those buttheads say if I see it on here. Good advice.

More reason to discount what PFF tells you.

The way I see this Packers game is its just another prove it game. So far Dallas is 0-1 in these type of games. Im still not sold on this team with Zeke looking slow and this team unable to run or pass last week. Dak needed to roll out last week and get rid of the ball quickly and he did for one drive and then he went right back to holding the ball to long. This team lacks explosion on offense. There is nobody that can make big plays down the field. Cooper isnt doing it! I cant remember the last time Zeke out ran a CB for a long TD. The only guy that has done much of lately is Jarwin and he has been replaced with a slow old Jason Witten. Some things never change.

Can't disagree with any of it. We looked slow as an entire offense. Kinda odd cuz I thought overall team speed was pretty good on this team to be honest.

I'm a Zeke guy but your Zeke comment was spot on too. Like he went from a sub four five forty guy to a "patient" AND lacks second gear dude overnight almost.

Nice post.
