Anyone else scared of a letdown next week?

Making it to the playoffs should come about because you win games. Not because someone else lost. If we cannot win out frankly we do not deserve to be in the playoffs. We are playing two teams we already beat. There is no excuse.

Agreed. Jason Campbell played sooooo bad that he will be locked in... even if its only for one game. We have a knack for making these guys look like Joe Montana.

Lets just flat out destroy.




That is a major concern. That is also a pattern of years past. While I believe this team is better than that... they dont always show it. SHOW ME. That is ALL I ask.





Hey Danny - how is it going.... Your sig is not only great...it sums up the current state(fans mindset) of the Dallas Cowboys.

:bow:

I disagree with this because we haven't lost to a bad team all year. The games we have lost have been to good teams and playoff contending teams. We will be ready for this game.

That may be, but every year there are some teams that make the playoffs due to receiving help by having other teams lose. I know the '05 Steelers had some breaks with others losing late in the year and made the playoffs as the 6th seed and then won the SB.

So while I'd love to win out to make the playoffs, I'd also take whatever help we get to make it also.

We can agree to disagree... aint it cool. :)

Despite everything. The Giants ARE a bad team.




Regardless of the team(bad,good or great) we have lost game by flat out not executing when we needed to. Denver game, Charger game, etc....

While I am full on-board, all chips in with the Cowboys. They have to get out there and flat out crush the dreams of teams like the Commanders.... give them NOTHING... enjoy NOTHING about the 2009 season(for them).

They can still give up a lot of points too. They were averaging about 32 points a game given up since starting the season 5-0. That is not something that can be ignored. Washington gave up last night. I don't expect Carolina to do that.
Carolina was playing very ordinary football until the other day. They are not consistent and could very easily get blown out as give the Giants a fight. I would not trust them to deliver.

The Eagles are a quality team we were fortunate to beat the first time around.

Now, the Commanders? I agree. If we can't somehow beat them, then we really do not deserve a playoff opportunity.

I'm not worried about a Cowboy letdown. I do think the sad sack franchise that resides in the nation's capital will show some pride, especially after being embarrassed last night.

The Giants are not a bad team. 8-6 is not what I would consider a bad team. Above average. Fine. Bad. No.

This team has broken my heart on several occasions so I'll see if they've truly turned the corner.

No way........we will dominate the Skins. That team has officially mailed it in. They put up a fight for the better half of a horrible season, but they are laying down waiting for the final blow now. And it's our pleasure to go in and deliver it. Go Boys!
I'll bet y'all a Whataburger that we beat them by at least 14.
