Man we need Romo for the extra 1.1 pts per game.

 

[Supercowboy1986]

Interesting tidbit. Thanks for the post OP.

 

[CATCH17]

I prefer this team.


Better defense and better run game because Zeke actually has vision.


IMO, Romo will play a factor at some point.

 

[Aven8]

This team feels different.

The biggest difference to me though is I see no "stud" NFC team this year. It is ours for the taking if we want it!! Our division is good, but outside of that who scares you??

I agree. Romo will give some good advice on the sideline holding the clipboard to Dak as the season goes along.

The NFL as a whole is uncharacteristically weak this year. Our best shot at a sb in quite some time

The entire NFL is like that.

All the elite QB's are getting old and the young guys that were supposed to carry the torch after they were gone or older are playing a little better than mediocre.



The entire NFL kinda plays the same too. Pass happy league... Meanwhile Dallas is the contrarian and it actually makes our team very unique because we play a style of football that is based more on imposing our will than timing and rhythm in the passing game.

You gotta love the Cowboys this year and I want that 1 seed.

Yes. Thinking the same thing.

Where the normally top teams talent has aged a bit and they have not been able to replace all the parts.

Cowboys with the O line as it is have now afforded themselves the luxury of not being pressured by a one position cover in the draft next year.

It very much feels like dejavu all over again.

Completely agree. I can't recall seeing so many flawed teams in one year. It truly is anyone's year. It will likely come down to who is the healthiest at the end.

I like this team better because we're getting it done at QB and RB with two rookies who we can build a bright future with. Romo will only be a factor if Dak gets injured and things probably won't go as smooth with him due to rust.

Dallas will not continue to play Dak if he plays like he did Sunday night regardless of whether we win or lose.

I bet he starts the first game after Thanksgiving.

 

[Daillest88]

Ive said it a few times, this team chemistry is better than 2014s and 2014 was a good year for comradery. our running game is better. I believe EzE is really gonna just get better and better as the season goes on

Didn't Dallas lose their first game to in 2014?

He won't continue to play like that but it was far from a terrible game. He's yet to have as bad a game as Romo had in the 2014 opener. Although Dak didn't have his best stuff Sunday Night he made some good plays and when the game was on the line in regulation and OT he was outstanding. Despite the win and his great play in crunch time, you have some that can't wait to bench him. Can't be a stranger FAN base than this one. He was going up against a good Philly defense that's tied for 3rd in sacks this season and he maintained his poise throughout the game. Romo would have had a tough time surviving the pressure that was put on Dak.

Some here just can't wait to go back to where we've been with Romo. We haven't won anything with him and we're certainly not going to win anything with him now with all the games he's missed, coming off a broken back. He'll be gun shy and defenses will be trying to take him out. You lose the read option with him at QB that's been so effective this season. If we're going to win anything in 2016 it's going to be with Dak.

I do as well Catch want the #1 seed!! The only team that is built like us is the Titans. Same model, young QB, Oline, and Demarco and Henry and they are 4-4.

Wow, the takeaways. They are already close to 2014 with 9 games left
