It seems we are doing just enough to stay in the game, but not enough to win.

That stat illustrates what a squandered opportunity this season is shaping up to be. Enough talent to compete with anybody, enough idiocy to lose to anybody.

The Cowboys have also won the turnover battle in each of the last two games, and still managed to lose. They simply aren't the dormant juggernaut that some people think they are. The Cowboys have just enough talent to challenge for a playoff spot and, perhaps, sneak in during a down year.

Sadly, this talent on this team is currently in its prime. It's not going to get any better.

Which means one whole year was wasted keeping this staff running the show. The 44-6 should have been Wade's last game. Now our team is on the verge of a repeat, and is a year older.

Lets not forget we have had a several junk touchdowns in those losses.

Two things I'd like to point out

1. The average NFL team loss is by 4 or fewer points

2. Again, delusional thinking - focusing on how close we are makes us miss how far away we are

don't forget all the garbage time points we got against GB, NYG, and now SD.

Every scout in the league knows ho much talent we have squandered - world's least kept secret.

That wasn't garbage time - damn it, we were trying to win (/SD..NYG)

We just aren't very good. The mentality on this board is that we are just a play or two away from winning, a game or two away from making the playoffs. That is the same mentality that the owner and coached have and it is the exact reason we won't do anything until the mentality changes. We may not win another game this year.
