Tomorrow we will find out. Either this team turns the page with the whole December thing and thus begins a new glorious era in Cowboys football, or they stumble yet again in a crucial game in December and continue the errror filled legacy we have become accustomed to.

I say we turn the page and a brand new era starts tomorrow with the crushing of the Giants!

Who's on board?

If we lose we are 8-4 ontop of the NFC East.


I don't see an error.


I'm referring to the month of December and how we start it off.

What if we lose this game, but win the next 4?


I'd say it'd be a helluva December. I have an idea. Let's wait until December is over before we rush to judgement, regardless of what happens tomorrow.

Count me onboard. This is a team with a new tough attitude. I'm convinced. Starting with the Giants, the Cowboys will roll through opponents in December this year and go either 4-1 at worst, or 5-0.

Make no mistake about it, this game could very well determine our fate for this season. From a record standpoint it won't, considering we'll still be in first place in the East if we lose. However, psychologically I believe a loss tomorrow will not be good for the team in the remaining four games. I could be wrong, but I don't think so. I believe this team fully expects to beat the Giants, and if they fail they might not recover.

Let's go with "an old error" to fit in with the in crowd around here.

I'm on board. This team is a much more cohesive unit than in recent years. Win or lose this next game, I like this team.

Whether we crush the Giants, win by a FG, or by only one point, it's a start, and a new era. The Cowboys must win this game.

Regardless, it's a new era.

You make a great point that is seldom brought up. This is the first game of December. We all know this month is not very kind to the Dallas Cowboys. It STARTS HERE! This is a game we must have. It's divisional. It's the Giants. It helps knock the Giants down a peg, perhaps for the season. More importantly, it's about exacting revenge on Brandon for his remarks after the first game at midfield, and for Eli taking a Sharpie to the visitor's lockerroom after the game.

We have got to have this game to prove to the nation and ourselves that we are ready. It's time for the Cowboys to start their run now.

That could happen, but if we lose tomorrow, I think a lot of people will have the "here we go again" feeling.

You mean the so-called "realists" will show up? :rolleyes: Screw them.

I don't see an error.

If we lose and the Eagles win, we will be tied with them for 1st place. Now we currently have tie break on them so technically we will still be in first place, but with San Diego, New Orleans, and Philly all still on the schedule, it is going to be tuff.

Plus, we start out December 0-1 and the media will have a field day with all the "here we go again, stick a fork in them" talk.

My prediction......I think if we lose to the Giants, we probably lose the division.

One thing we shouldn't forget is, if we lose to Giants they will have head-head advantage and if we both end up with a 10-6 record or somthing , we will not only lose division and play off hopes , since philly has a bit easier path.

If we lose to both the Giants and Philly, we probably dont make the playoffs.

Wade will then be fired and Garrett will be named the new HC of the Cowboys.
