CFZ Are you guys bored?

[G2]

Nope. There's plenty to do unless all you talk about is the same couple of topics.
Plus the draft is a fun offseason topic.

 

[Acceptablename]

I’m feeling even more bored than I ever have been with the team, and I missed large portions of games this season and some entire games. I don’t remember feeling this disinterested in the club except prior to being a fan (when I was a small child).

The club’s owner just publicly stated that winning championships is not his or the team’s main priority-which kinda takes all guessing out of the equation. They ordered these results, and anyone still following knows they did.

Without any major shakeup this coming season, I doubt I catch many of the games at all. I would hazard a guess that the squad makes it to the 2024 wild card game and depending on the matchup and health of the other team maybe advances to the divisional round where the other team is much better and typically more healthy (then they lose). 12-5 seasons with no advancing to the final four to me is not progression-the arrow is pointing sideways (and aging core players will eventually lead to a downward trajectory).

Not sure that Jerry Jones actually said that but yes the team has an obligation to his fans. And I have an obligation to be entertained I why Watch. For the first time I have a second team I’ll also be watching the Chargers love Herbert and I still think Moore is a good coordinator

Very. There's little reason for hope except that maybe one year we will get lucky.

This franchise is content to simply win more games than they lose. This is the team they want, so of course nothing will change. Their team-building formula has given them a team that is competitive enough to get people interested, and rarely bad enough to result in empty seats. Consistent profitability.

Bored? Not at all. Look at the comedy of errors that occurred at the end of the SF game. Wasting time before punting, running out of bounds going backwards keeping clock running, failing to get 2 feet in bounds while being wide open, getting lucky to avoid a safety because you didn’t throw the ball away, and then the final play was a masterpiece to end the season yet again. I can understand fans getting frustrated but that is entertainment right there.

I agree!! The Cowboys are like a sitcom!! Their plots are always the same. Something bad or unexpected happens which then elicits the "laugh track"!! LOL

The Cowboys have a very young team. The dreaded over 30 club members are: Hilton, Peters, Martin, Tyron, Godwin and Anger. Hankins, Barr and DLaw are 30. With their good drafting, the Cowboys are in good shape with an aging roster.

This. Youngest team in the playoffs and 3rd youngest in the league at 25.58. This is also high with guys like Peters and Hilton

 

[Aven8]

Board? With #11 on the field? No way Jose. And we had the lead for a lot of the game or tied against SF. Our QB just couldn’t get it done. I think a lot of the air went out when Pollard went down. I also like the fact that they saw the problem and it was the offense and got rid of coaches and are trying to fix it. How can that be boring?

 

[JBS]

I think most of us are numb

I think a lot of things could’ve went our way / gone the other way.

But the one thing that sticks out, is in a Kellen Moore runs the ball on 3rd down in Jacksonville, Dallas has the one seed. People can complain, but being a few snaps away from the 1 seed, I am not sure why people are so down.

 

[starfan1]

Not bored at all. Was mad after the San Fran game for about a day now I’m hopeful for FA and draft

I didn’t expect them to go much further than they did so it really didn’t alter my enthusiasm for the team

I can’t stand Jerry’s the owner but I have come to grips with it for a long time

Can’t understand the rationale of whining all off-season and during the season as much as some do here

There’s 31 teams that come up short each year

 

[cowboyec]

no.
i'm too old.
the season is too short.
the off-season is too damn long.
screw that.
til i die.
GO☆DAMN☆COWBOYS!

Situational play calling is what Moore was not very good at for sure. That play. 2nd and 2 in SF…..

Jerry Jones = Al Davis

we let go of our kicker, wouldn't surpise me to draft one in the first 2 rounds!

 

[shabazz]

Not bored…..just embarrassed

the major sports media covers us way too much and it’s not because of success….it’s because of abject failure

 

[Carson]

This is why I think Schottenheimer is what they need. He will run the ball and protect Dak. You won’t see any odd defense fronts where we are outnumbered

 

[shabazz]

Agree….the botched snap in Seattle, the catch/no catch against Green Bay, and last but not least the boneheaded 14 seconds QB keeper that runs out the clock against the niners 2 seasons ago

the last Niners loss was pretty drama free except for bonehead throwing 2 picks…..pretty standard actually

 

[GoldenR]

Bored = lack of interest. I am never at a lack of interest when this team is playing! I can't count how many times I am pacing up and down my bar room yelling and rooting for a big play. Like when we need a TD and maybe 7 yards for a first, and we check down 3 yards to Zeke in front of the LB's!!!!! How can you not yell and scream for that. You guys all know that feeling!! Bored? NO WAY.

Standard as usual per Jerry. Just like this off season.

While I am still hopeful that this team may be on the verge of a break through, I have found myself becoming more apathetic the last few seasons.

Don't get me wrong, I still watch almost every game and love the team but it just doesn't get me excited like it used to. After the playoff loss this season I wasn't really upset at all since we've seen this same scenario play out so many times. It's actually nice to be able to enjoy the games without being emotionally invested.

 

[IslandCowboy]

Too mad to be bored.

 

[Wichitaleafs]

Jones can go pound sand. I'm too old for more of his balogna. I'll likely never watch another Cowboys game and I've been with them since the days of Landry.

I do agree but for every one of us another Cowboy fan is born.
