All of a sudden...

[fortdick]

All of a sudden, we could win all three road games and be 6-3. Gotta take it to the Skins and not under estimate them, but I am not afraid of Arizona.

That win last night made the playoffs a possibility again.

Romo has made me cautiously optimistic. Hope he can keep it up.

Same here. I'm enjoying the heck out of this win and the play of Romo but also relize we still have a ways to go to get where we want to be. I hope the Boys are enjoying today and ready to get down to business tomorrow as we get ready for the Skins.

Gonna be honest, I had us at 6-3 for the first 9. The difference is I had us flip flopped for the Gayants and the Panthers. If we can beat Washington and Zona and be 6-3, I'm going to be impossible to deal with at work.

Indy scares me, but we can beat them if we play the right way. Right now, I'd still say we're a playoff team. I didn't think so after MNF because it looked like we were staring at 3-4.

Psssssst. The playoffs were a possibility before last nights game too.

I posted here last Tues with the headline: "Three in a row...Who's all in?" Not many people said they would put their chips in, though. I believed it then and I still believe it now. Hopefully Romo will stay healthy and TO and etc will stay healthy. Limit the turnovers. Take what the defense will give you. And don't give up the big play on defense.

The last 7 game slook rough. We need to win the next two, because I can see us only going 3-4, maybe 4-3 the last seven. Maybe 10-6 and a wild card spot. If we beat the gints at their house, the maybe division title, but that is too far ahead.

With respect to Indy, I really hope we use NE's and Pitt's gameplan.(Interestingly, both are 3-4 teams as well, now that I think about it.)

We need to try to atleast make Manning move in the pocket and throw on the run. If we let him sit back there and get comfortable, it's a loss. I think we will have to gamble some with him. It's a tall order, but letting him get comfortable in the pocket is the kiss of death - we need to apply pressure and get creative with some blitz packages.

I don't know why everyone was in a panic before the Carolina game, they aren't anything special. The Cowboys are right there in the thick of things, I'm thankful to Parcells that he let his personal feelings go out the window and make the right decision as far as the QB situation....

Cowboys 06' record will be 10-6!

Yea, the Boys' look good right now. Still a ton of football to be played, though.

The Skins looked good when we played Jacksonville and look what happened since then.:laugh1:

Yes, his OL and getting past them is a huge key because if he has time in the pocket no one will beat them.

I may be crazy, but i see the game vs Indy as being similar to the game against Kansas City last year. Kind of back and forth, high scoring. I am not saying that the end result will be the same, though i think we definitely have a better chance of winning than most would give us.

But i think our game vs Indy has the potential to be one of the best games of the year.

I absolutely agree. If you saw the Denver game yesterday you saw this in spades in the 2nd half. Denver rushed 4 and never got close. Manning cut them up like a surgeon. Denver's secondary didn't have a chance.

Since we don't seem to be able to create consistent pressure, I don't hold out a lot of hope. The good news is, Indy's defense isn't very good so a good team can keep it close.

I think they're quite different. KC had/has a much better running threat, weaker receivers, and T Green isn't close to Manning at his best. You can count on Green making enough bad throws to keep it interesting, Manning is in a league of his own.

You are right about all of that. I was making the comparison more in terms of it being a high scoring, back and forth battle coming down to the wire.

Careful who you go calling a troll. Nothing in my post that you quoted was said with malice. Go ahead and take the Skins for granted, though. Parcells won't.

Dennis Green after we beat Arizona: they ARE who we THOUGHT they were!!! they ARE who we THOUGHT they were!!!!!

 

[CrazyCowboy]

ROMO shocked the NFL world.....but not us Zoners!

 

[YosemiteSam]

All the sudden...

Were contenders now.

didnt seem to be a troll comment to me...


In regards to the topic, if we can somehow win the next 3...move to 7-3, we are going to be the team to beat.

Im already looking forward to the Indy game, it could very well be a super bowl preview if dallas plays like the did last night continually. I think the key to us beating the colts will be demarcus ware. He has got to SPEED RUSH and get to the QB. If he can be there all day i think indy will struggle. If i see him in coverage one time im going to lose my mind.
