OK, here's a positive thread. Props to Wade Phillips. He has done something that Tom Landry and Jimmy Johnson could not - coach the Cowboys to a 9-1 start. We're making history this season. Keep it going, Cowboys.

I think we started 9-1 in 95 and 92

You must not be aware of the curse of game #10. We lost both times when we were 8-1 in 92 and 95, once to the Rams and once to the 49ers.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but the Cowboys started off 9-1 in 1976 and 1983. And we started off 8-2 in 1992 and 1995.

That being said, if we beat the Jets, it will be the first time our club achieved 10-1. So history making is still on the way.

So what has the media been talking about? I've read this more than once.

You're right, VC. The Cowboys have never started better than 9-1. I just looked it up. If we beat the Jets on Thursday, then it will be the best start in Cowboys history. I stand corrected, but I'm still giddy about this.

However, I did read that 9-1 would be the best start ever. I guess you can't trust the media.

We're 9-1 , we own the NFC East, and most I read here on the zone is criticism of the team. Not constructive criticism most of the time either.
Instead we complain about all we do wrong, even when we win!!!!!!

I guess I just don't understand some people.

I know we're supposed to Embrace The Hatred, But Why can't we just enjoy The Ride.

Your statement was fundamentally correct. 9-1 is the best start in Cowboys history. No other Cowboy team has achieved better. If you had stated "this Cowboy team is the only 9-1 team in Cowboy history," you would've been incorrect.

But you didn't. You were absolutely correct.

Edit: LOL, after reading your first post, I see that I misspoke. Your thread title was correct, however.

Those years ended with 1st round playoff losses. Screw that, I want a Super Bowl!!

I agree with you. I'm damn happy with the W and to be 9-1. The Foreskins played a great game today and gave us their best and still couldn't beat us. We're coming off a helluva two game road swing and finish it up 3-0 in the EAST. That's just awesome and I'm thrill with the BOYZ....

It's all good. 9-1 is nothing to sneeze at. And with the way the Cowboys played today, you know they are going to crank it up against the Jets.
