Stop your whining, the Skins are doing the same thing. We had the Giants at the meadowlands, Indy at the RCA and now Philly at the linc. On top of that, not many teams have bye weeks after the first half of the season, so you have to play all the teams coming off the byes during the first half.

The BYE doesnt mean a thing... we lost to the skins for a multitude of OTHER reasons

It's simple logic to realize that the expected number of teams you should play coming off of a bye is 1. Nothing wrong with *****ing about having to play 3 times that many. Plus, I do feel like this has happened to the Cowboys several times in recent years.

Just an FYI, the Giants are historically the worst team in the league after their bye week, so be happy with that gift...

This Arizona game does seem like one of those "don't eat the cheese" affairs, but after last Sunday, the Cowboys had better not be caught off guard. This is Arizona's Super Bowl, but what's new? They've had two weeks to prepare, but they are a lousy team with a lousy record and Dallas had better show up to keep it that way.

Well, the good thing for us is that when we play @ Arizona, it is traditionally a "Home Game" for us as most of the fans are usually Cowboy fans...

Well, this is the last week of BYE's if I'm not mistaken..

Off the top of my head, games we had vs. teams coming off bye's were vs. Houston, @Washington, and @Arizona. Not exactly the toughest of teams..

The Skins have had Tennessee, Indy, New York, and now Philly this week.

Tennessee played Houston the week after their bye but your point still stands, that's pretty brutal.

No, in that extra week they realized where the weakness in our FG unit was :bang2: :bang2:

I b*****d about this last week only to hear "but Washington and Arizona sucks so it shouldn't matter."
I wonder if those people think it matters now!

Jerry Jones needs to step up and put a stop to this s**t. In fact since we played like 5 bye rested teams in 2003 and 3 in 2006, I say Jerry insists we don't play another til at least 2112!
Since the NYFnG had NINE home games in 2005 maybe they should have had a few extra bye rested teams.
