I agree 100%. Best team in decades and you can tell by the excitement and aggressiveness they exhibit on every play.This is the best team since 95

34ppgactually....the average scoring dropped significantly because of last night's game...I wonder what the numbers would look like before last night's game when our top 5 QB didn't play.....(about 35)....
but those teams were good too. no doubt...they just couldnt' finish.
You don't think the coaches are better?Not trying to be a killjoy, thats why I stated right at the beginning that I am ecstatic. Im just pointing out the ridiculous subjectivity of posters. Someone above said this team is better than those teams and it isnt even close... huh?
Next someone is saying we are so much better because our coaches are so much better? Huh?
I hope we win a SB this year. There is not much more that I can say I want more in my life than that... my life is pretty good, a Dallas SB would be phenomenal. But if we were to lose in the first rd, watch how quickly all those in here singing the praises of these coaches would crush them.. every, single one of them.
It is easy to go back and point to what happened at the end of the season, but after 7 games, those teams are very, VERY similar. They were all kicking butt.
This is a Super Bowl team so heck yes this team is better than those previous year's teams. I'm saying it with my chest!

I've been thinking about this a lot as well and the real answer is we don't know. Many people forget that the team won 13 and 12 games under garrett. At the end of the day, only the end result will matter. If we flame out in the playoffs, assuming we keep it up in the regular season, then the answer is no.
why not get overly excited? What are we supposed to do, wait to get excited until AFTEr we win one? Heck no, Im excited right now and will be excited all season until or if we get knocked out.
34.2 to be exact34ppg
2007 was better. This team is better than 2014 and 2016 though.
fifyThe main reasons why this team is better than any of our playoff teams since 1995..
1) The QB.. This version of Dak is better than 2016 Dak YES.....way better than 2016 Dak
and better than any version of Romo we ever saw. NO......not 2014 Romo
.
So right about 2007 team being a bit overrated.Definitely better than 2007. Lots of people think that was the most talented cowboys team but I always thought it was fools gold. They started breaking apart in December; injuries and mistakes with inadequate depth just did the team in.
I think 2014 was the most talented team of the last 25 or so years. Totally dominant OL and RB, the best Romo had ever been, and defense that wasn't as talented as 2007 but was playing a system that worked (NFL was still figuring out the cover 3 and the Cowboys could score on sustained drives that forced other teams to chase). Lawrence came on at the end of the rookie year and really started flashing as well.
2016 was close, and I thought possibly the best coaching of Garrett's career.
But I think there is a chance that 2021 is both more talented AND better coached. The offense is dominant top to bottom at every position, with depth to boot. The defense is seeing the emergence of Gregory as a star (not sure there are 5 better pass rushers over the last month) and as well coached as I've seen as a Cowboys fan.
Still a lot of season to go, but at this pace, I think they are better than those iterations.
EDIT - I always wanted Garrett to take the next step, but it never happened. I for one feel fortunate that the guy who finished the 2014 and 2016 campaigns is on this side now. I think other than QB (Rodgers is an all time great IMO), this is likely the most talented team McCarthy has ever had, next to the 2010 run.
You see the picture near my name? I personally took that picture. Yea, I've been following this team for a few years.I’m excited but I’m not to the point where I’m going to start booking my Super Bowl tickets. I’m getting more optimistic about this team with every game they play but I’m cautious. Don’t know if you were following the team back in 2007, 2014 and 2016 but those seasons didn’t end well. If you get too high about a team too soon you could be in for a big let down. It’s been a great season so far but we still have a lot of games to play.
