Not one interesting comment. Moving on.

You can't refute what I said so you move on. LOL

Like I have already said, this thinking is ridiculous. We played Buffalo in game 2 of the very next season. So 2 games later. Buffalo won, 13-10. We did not have Emmitt Smith who was a holdout. But anyone who says Emmitt is a 38 point difference needs to explain to me why we didn't every game by 30+ points and why we lost.

It is a ridiculous supposition. The 1992 Super Bowl had very little bearing on the 1993 Super Bowl other than they were the same 2 teams and the same team won. The previous season had nothing to do with that win.


The game Buffalo won against Dallas in week 2 of the 93 season didn't have near the impact of the game they lost to the Cowboys 8 months earlier in the SB or near the impact of the game they lost to Dallas 4 months later in the SB. The Bills won one a battle and kept losing the war. You keep saying the 92 Super Bowl didn't have a bearing on the 93 Super Bowl but how do you know? How do you know the crushing defeat in the previous SB didn't affect their confidence heading into the 93 SB and help the Cowboys confidence? How do you know the disappointing loss to the Giants in the 90 Super Bowl didn't have a bearing on the losses they suffered in the 3 following SB's? You don't know any of this. I remember Jim Marshall of the Vikings saying how much pressure his team felt with every SB loss. Repeatedly losing big games can greatly affect a teams psyche. Once a team loses a SB there's alot more pressure to win the second time around and the pressure keeps growing each time a team comes up short. The Bills SB losses were fresh in their mind because it was one right after another. Beating a team in the SB proving you can beat them in the ultimate game gave the Cowboys a big advantage heading into the 93 SB against the Bills. The Bills were fighting all kinds demons riding a 3 game SB losing streak. The pressure was all on them and they crumbled. The Cowboys were a superior team and their 3-0 90's SB record was proof of that. The Vikings lost all 4 SB's they appeared in because the pressure to win grew with every SB appearance. Like I said losing can get into a teams head especially when they're playing teams that have a history of winning championships. You can't tell me a team that loses the SB the previous season isn't going to feel some added pressure to get over the hump the next season if they make it back. If you look at the history of the SB you have several teams that always seem to win when they get to the SB like the Steelers and 49ers and there's teams that always seem to lose like the Vikings and Bills. It all comes down to confidence and that plays a big part in getting over the hump. The Cowboys use to lose big games all the time until Staubach came along.

My way? By all means ask any NFL player or coach is a previous season has any bearing on a coming season. This year alone the following football people have said this very thing with regards to commentary about the Cowboys.

Keith Brooking
Wade Phillips
Phil Sims
Tony Romo
Jason Witten
Bradie James
Michael Irvin
Troy Aikman
Roger Staubach

...and I am sure I am forgetting some. You're right and all those great football minds are wrong?

I don't think so. In fact I know you aren't and it has nothing to do with opinion. A little common sense goes a long way.


Players and coaches never talk in negative terms heading into the season or into games. A team that loses the SB is never going to say they feel more pressure the second time around. They all say the previous season doesn't matter no matter how many times the results of the previous season repeats itself. The Cowboys always seem to fall victim to disturbing trends. I'm not saying the team is going to continue to flounder in big games at the end of the season but the Vikings dominance in our playoff game showed the Cowboys still have a ways to go. Romo made some strides last Dec and Jan but we saw against the Vikings that he still isn't where he needs to be. Our OL was completely dominated by the Vikings front four. Some of the same problems that plagued the team early last season reared it's ugly head again in the end. If you believe everything coaches and players say to the media go ahead. Players and coaches say what's politically correct most of the time to try and show confidence. Jerry does it all the time listen to his comments about RW. He use to do that with Quincy Carter. Action speaks louder than words and I go by what I see on the field. The Cowboy team I saw on the field against the Vikings to end the season still has a ways to go to be where the Saints are. The Cowboys have the talent to be where the Saints are they but don't have the coaching the Saints have or a QB who can stay consistent like Drew Brees. The Cowboys can win battles but continue to come up short when it matters most. What happened in Philly in 08 clearly inspired the Cowboys against them this season. This team needs to stay inspired against every team they play so they don't keep laying these unexpected eggs at the end of the year.

Refute what? Every bit of it except that one line is dead wrong. That one line is exactly what I said and it is right. That day they were the better team. Nothing wrong with admitting that.

No team is invincible. You somehow have an idea that once a team has beaten you you're branded for life. yet there is no time in NFL History where this has held true. I will provide examples later because you clearly do not get this fact.

Do you even realize that you are making my point for me? You literally just said the Bills won that game because the 92 Super Bowl had little to no bearing on the regular season game. That is correct. That is what I am already saying. Funny how that works if you just stop yourself for one instant and think.

The Bills won one a battle and kept losing the war. You keep saying the 92 Super Bowl didn't have a bearing on the 93 Super Bowl but how do you know? How do you know the crushing defeat in the previous SB didn't affect their confidence heading into the 93 SB and help the Cowboys confidence?
We whipped the 49ers in the NFC Championship in 1992 and again in 1993. Jimmy boldly told the press to put in three inch high letters. George Seiffert said Jimmy had balls and they were going to find out whether they were paper mache or brass. In the post game press conference after we beat them in 1993 Jimmy walked up to the microphone and said, "they're brass."

Two straight crushing defeats. What bearing did it have on the 1994 Championship game? If you said, "nothing" you are finally right. San Fran whipped us and went on to become the first team to 5 Super Bowls.

Were we crushed? If you say yes, how did we come back and win our 5th the very next year?

Do you even realize every scenario you are espousing is completely full of holes? All of this hand wringing panic you are espousing is being shown up as complete and utter bull cookies.

How do you know the disappointing loss to the Giants in the 90 Super Bowl didn't have a bearing on the losses they suffered in the 3 following SB's? You don't know any of this.

I guess someone forgot to tell John Elway and the Broncos about how crushed Jim Marshall and the Vikings were to lose 4 Super Bowls. John lost 3 of them. How in the world by your feeble definition did the Broncos ever get over that impossible hurdle and win back to back titles? By what you said above, it is not possible.

How did the Baltimore Colts beat us just 2 years after they lost to the lowly AFL Jets in Super Bowl III? By what you said above, it is not possible.

How did the Dolphins win 2 Super Bowls in a row after we crushed them 24-3 in Super Bowl VI? By what you said above, it is not possible.

For that matter why doesn't the exact same team win the Super Bowl every single year? By your panic ridden description everyone else but a champion is bordering on neurotic. That is your exact stance if you say that first Super Bowl loss led to the other 3. Yet NFL History and common sense simply prevail over what you say is not possible.

You act like pressure makes people fold. Maybe it makes you fold, but it does not make professional athletes fold. That is a ridiculous notion. Always has been. That's probably it. You fold under pressure like a worn out shirt and you thing everyone else does too. Think again, and this time try and make it a cognizant thought.

Once again you can't refute anything I said so you move on.
I feel no need to refute something that doesn't even make a point. It was nothing but rambling nonsense that was good for a laugh but not for a discussion. So, I prefer to be amused than to jump all over it and make you feel abused.

I feel no desire to waste my time on something completely lacking in common sense. It has nothing to do with "can't refute it." It has everything to do with "won't waste my time if it has no point."

Some things just aren't worth the powder to blow them to hell. 90% of the people can read it on their own and see it for the complete gibberish it is. They don't need me to shine a flash light on it and point out how flawed it is.

Players and coaches never talk in negative terms heading into the season or into games. A team that loses the SB is never going to say they feel more pressure the second time around.

Staubach, Aikman, and Simms are no longer players. They are former players and two of them are journalists too. They know that if they want to take those notions and make a compelling discussion they can. The thing is many former players such as them who have moved on to broadcasting prefer to be honest. Very few of them are up in arms type who would support your white flag stances in this thread.

You learning anything? No, I am not holding my breath. I haven't got that much faith.

No one ever said that if a team loses one big game to a particular team they're always going to lose to them. LOL The 49ers have a great history and had 4 SB wins at the time they beat the Cowboys in the 94 title game. We beat them in two straight title games and they beat us in the 3rd one. Either you don't understand where I'm coming from or this is just part of your desperate MO to try and win arguments. Sorry but this isn't going to work with me. :rolleyes: LOL

You COMPLETELY misunderstood what I was saying...LMAO! We'll chalk it up to your old age. LOL If you think I'm saying a team that loses a SB is sure to keep on losing SB's you're dead wrong! SB losses and wins have come in clusters for a "few" teams but I never said it's either going to be all wins or all loses....GET REAL! Denver's SB losses came in a cluster of 3 and their 2 SB wins came back to back. Never once did I say the tide can't change for a team but you clearly have an agenda against me and it's being exposed. Some teams keep losing SB's like the Bills and Vikings. This doesn't mean they'll never win one but the pressure to win after each loss they had kept building and they could never break through. Maybe someday they will. Several teams SB WINS have come in clusters because they had great teams and got on a roll but this doesn't mean they'll never lose one the Steelers finally did to the Cowboys. Looks Like I better start going a little sloooower for you.

Pressure makes alot of professional athletes fold where have you been? You don't agree that some professional athletes fold under pressure? LOL If you don't some of your posse may abandon you...LMAO! I've seen plenty of professional athletes fold under pressure. I've seen Romo fold under pressure many times. You don't agree Romo has folded under pressure before? Pressure does two things to professional athletes it brings out the best in some and the worst in others. Players like Staubach and Montana excelled under pressure and players like Danny White and Romo have folded under it.

As for the Cowboys/Vikings playoff game the Vikings weren't just better that day they were a better team than the Cowboys all season and their record and home field advantage backed that up. They decisively beat the Cowboys and put up a valiant effort against NO in the NFC title game. If the Cowboys are going to lose a big game with their season on the line I want to see them going down swinging not getting PASTED.

Lets just cut through all the BS and answer these questions or continue to tap dance. Just answer them and give your opinion and stop diverting.

1. Do you think a team that loses the Super Bowl feels a little added pressure to win if they make it back the next year?

2. Do you think the Cowboys and Romo felt any added pressure to win a playoff game the past 3 seasons...YES or NO?

3. Has there been any play in any game since Romo became the starter where you thought he folded?

Don't be afraid and dance around those just give your opinion.

Bro you have plenty of friends here and I'm an outsider with opposing views who rarely posts. You're an administrator who has over 79,000 posts and has been donating since 04. Believe me I know the score here and I'm cool with it. Anyone you argue with regardless of your position your posse will take sides with you. The funny thing is your backers don't even read my posts they just see you're having a disagreement and jump in to show support. LOL

People agree with me when they think I am right. They disagree with me when they think I am wrong. It isn't rocket surgery or brain science.

Wrong as usual. I read your posts, laugh at how silly they are, dismiss most of it as babble, and lampoon the rest. And as I have already told you, I don't have a posse. I ride alone. They agree with me when I am right and disagree when I am wrong.

I don't have that idea at all that's just you getting things twisted to fit your agenda. I never gave the impression a team is branded for life.

Oh, so it is just the 2010 Dallas Cowboys? So lame. If that was a horse we'd have to shoot it.

I really don't understand how you can sit there in a haze and not look at what you are saying and realize it is just simply ignorant. Only the Dallas Cowboys are subject to these wild suppositions and babblings? Seriously? You're going to sit there and in all sobriety say yes? That every other team in the NFL is immune to the infection you have placed on the Cowboys?

How can you not see the ignorance of that? Honestly, it is sad.

What does this have to do with the Bills/Cowboys matchups in the SB? :confused: Just another tap dance! :dance3: You're going off in all different directions no wonder you can't get anything straight.

These are called examples of how your "idea" just doesn't work in real life. In all honesty, it is really not that hard to figure out what I was doing. I am sorry that History and examples go right over your head. There is literally nothing I can do about that.

Your suppositions just don't work when put to the acid test of History. Not just the 1990's either. The 2009 Dallas Cowboys proved that 44-6 in 2008 did not matter. It had no bearing on the team. There was no added pressure. Ultimately the 2010 Dallas Cowboys will once again prove that 34-3 has no bearing on the team. I have repeatedly shown you that these bad beatings do not matter. If you are still too blind to see it maybe you should install a window in your stomach.

You COMPLETELY misunderstood what I was saying...LMAO! We'll chalk it up to your old age. LOL If you think I'm saying a team that loses a SB is sure to keep on losing SB's you're dead wrong!

No, I understood perfectly and used examples all from History to show that you had no earthly clue what you were babbling about.

You've got no point. I am sorry to tell you that. You've got nothing. Zero, zip, nada. You're swinging at air, and missing. Donut, bagel, goose egg baby.

As for the Cowboys/Vikings playoff game the Vikings weren't just better that day they were a better team than the Cowboys all season and their record and home field advantage backed that up.

Oh goody. Let's show you just how ridiculous your stance is using the team you just oozed praise all over. On December 6, 2009 the Vikings were in Arizona to play the Cardinals. They got beaten like ugly step children. Please look it up if you doubt this.

On December 20, 2010 they were in Carolina (Psst, not a good team) to play the Panthers, and once again they got worked. That day Carolina was the pimp and the Vikings were...well, you get the point. Or maybe not. Please look this up if you have doubts.

One week later on December 28, 2009 they were in Chicago (Psst, also not a good team) to play the Bears and lost in overtime. Please look this up if you just don't believe it.

So looky here. The Vikings faded down the stretch of the regular season, made it to the playoffs based solely on their early year easy schedule, and were able to deliver a beatdown on the Cowboys. By your standards of understanding this is impossible. Every detail of evidence you have pointed your fingers at the Cowboys and Tony Romo just got pointed at the Vikings and Brett Favre. They were better all year than the Cardinals, Panthers, and Bears. Yet they got beat by all three teams. You will probably say, "on the road." Psst, the Cowboys were on the road in Minnesota.

You are nothing if not consistent. It's too bad you are consistently wrong.

Those beatings, losses, did not sink the Vikings. They did not hamper them, weigh them down, add pressure to their already full slate, or in any way deter them from performing in subsequent football games and seasons.

Lets just cut through all the BS and answer these questions or continue to tap dance. Just answer them and give your opinion and stop diverting.

1. Do you think a team that loses the Super Bowl feels a little added pressure to win if they make it back the next year?
Pressure? Yes. ADDED pressure? No. Every team is under the same pressure to do this. Their fans and media want results. Their ownership wants results.

2. Do you think the Cowboys and Romo felt any added pressure to win a playoff game the past 3 seasons...YES or NO?
This is merely a repeat of the question above. The answer remains No. Pressure is always going to exist. Especially for a team like the Cowboys. In the real world down there on that field the only pressure they feel is from the other team. On that day the Vikings applied plenty of pressure. They won.

But it is so silly to think that Dallas losing that game adds nearly insurmountable pressure for 2010. Such a fairy tale.

3. Has there been any play in any game since Romo became the starter where you thought he folded?
No, but I have seen him get beat. All athletes get beat. A lot of us like to call McNabb a choker. In reality he is one of the best QBs in the game. Just like Romo, he can be beat. Peyton Manning is the best QB I have ever seen. He got beat.

In football, that's the game we're talking about in case you can't follow along, that stuff happens. Great teams and players like Tom Brady and the Patriots come up against a team that is inferior and they get beat. Sometimes they get beat badly. Like the Vikings you think were so superior all year to the Cowboys got beat 3 times in 4 games down the stretch by inferior teams.

Did those beatings matter? Please try not to dance around that question. I know that you simply don't understand when I use examples from NFL History to refute your silly little suppositions, but this one should be easy to follow. Your stance is that a big loss proves a team "has a long ways to go." But I have repeatedly now shown you that in the real world that is not the case. Have you learned nothing from the 44-6 chants that the mouth breathers spewed that now sound as hollow as a bongo drum?

Anyone Worried about Home Superbowl XLV?


I have very little confidence in Wade's leadership. Now throw in the SB at home. I see a colossal, embarrassing beatdown as the end result.



Its not going to take a "looking back" to see that Wade was poor choice as HC. Then to give him extension as well.

go Jerry!

I read this, see your sig, and can't help but think, "he's conflicted."

Well, you've got sides of the hyperbole spectrum covered. Good job I guess.

There is no conflict. The Cowboys won SBXXX in spite of Barry. It could happen again. If its our day then we may just get lucky.

Wade was not handed a back to back SB team. If this team makes it that will be because of players we have developed and or brought in to this team as well as players executing. Barry got a team that was very much established and with allot of depth on it.

Yeah, you're right no contradiction in that and " I see a colossal, embarrassing beatdown as the end result."
