If not winning the Super Bowl is no longer a disappointment than the Cowboys have fallen further than I thought.

The standards are and should be higher for this team. Fan, players, coaches, and executives shouldn’t accept or be happy with anything less than a Lombardi.

The Cowboys franchise was once synonymous with success and innovation. I guess mediocrity and a playoff win here and there are enough to suffice now.

It’s a damn shame.

I care about the team winning, not about how individual players do.

It was a disappointing season for Dallas. Things were in place to be successful and they failed to achieve the goal.

Well while we're piling on let us not forget that Dak also wanted input in personnel decisions, and his decision was that Jalen Tolbert was the guy :confused:
Wait….that happened?

Please tell me you’re joking….but like actually BE joking also….

I dont think it was either, at least not for me. In fact I think the cowboys exceeded my expectations this year. If you would of told me at the begining of the season that the Cowboys would win a playoff game this year I wouldn't of believed you.

Zeke was past his prime, we had a million questions about our wide receiver core. Moore was still our QC and Dak was still our QB. Not the best group to expect great thing to occur.

I gave up years ago expecting Dallas to make any run deep into the playoffs. Between the ownership, questionable coaches and lack of commitment toward the QB position we will never see that.

So again I didnt expect this team to make it as far as they did. It was just a matter of time before the WR core bombed out, our running game went stale or our QB showed his ugly side. Thanks to Dak all three showed up last weekend. But again I was expecting that to happen so it was no surprise or disappoint when it did.

Dallas offensive scheme against the Niners.

Zeke is a product of bad GM management.

It's his 7th year in the league so it's no surprise he's dropped off considerably. Heart and effort are still there; ability is not.
The total country club move would be to bring Zeke back at his current rate.

IMHO his heart went out of it the day he signed his big deal. He got paid and packed it in and has been on a severe downward spiral ever since. If his heart was still in it he would still be in shape and would be an effective NFL player.

He's 100% correct. The team played amazing this year considering the circumstances.

There is no excuse for daks inconsistent play from week to week and the amount of turnovers.

Cooper rush is not good enough to be a regular starter in this league. But he went 4-1 with his only loss to the undefeated eagles. And he still almost brought them back to win that one.

The team was good enough to have a backup go 4-1. And the way the team played against the niners, Cooper rush would have won that game.

I'm sure the players, especially the defense, are pissed off at Dak for losing that game. All he had to do was not turn the ball over.

Don’t care what he’s saying, Emmanuel Acho is an absolute moron and it should be embarrassing to post anything from him
He's the absolute worst. He's a perfect fit for ESPN though because they’re both full of it.

I rarely agree with Acho. And I don't once again.

You don't think the season was a disappointment for the Cowboys? What the hell is he talking about?

:facepalm:
He loves when the Cowboys do well in the reg season.

Ratings go up.

Maybe thats what he meant?

Its a team sport. I don't think anybody on the cowboys is celebrating the season. They know they left meat on the bone. This was a winnable game, and it might have ben our best chance b/c NY, Washington, and Philly all look like playoff contenders next year, and SF is going to unload Jimmy G and his contract freeing up a lot of money to improve that roster. We are cap strapped, reluctant to trade, and 100% dependent on the draft.
