I have literally adjusted my expectations down from 12-4 before the Denver game to 11-5 afterwards... & from11-5 before today to 9-7 afterwards. Indeed, there's no need to panic but it is quite clear to many that the difference between our Boys and the Eagles/Commanders has considerably narrowed.
We are closer, but the Chargers and Giants look like the two worst teams in the league, and the Eagles only beat both of them by less than 1 possession. Commanders I just haven't seen enough of to get a good view of them, ask me tomorrow night.

We are not playing like we did last year.

We've regressed,
We've seen it with teams in the NFL. It sucks. But... it's happening.

It's early. I'm not worried about 2-2.

What I <am> worried about is I don't think teams are scared of the Cowboys offense anymore.
That's right it's our defense that's got them shaking in their boots now......
Hold up let me get back to you on that

Its a game of inches,, games like this, an error on special teams.. ie.. Switzer, makes a huge difference in the out come.
This isn't as complex as some want to break this into,,, just a couple simple mistakes when two very similar teams go head to head,,, the team that makes those errors usually looses.

It's time for Jerry to look in the mirror and realize this team is only going as far as Garrett can take it. Figure it out. Been saying this since the day Garrett was hired.

Garrett only coaches the Cowboys.
My view is we are playing better but not yet consistently. I understand the frustration some have with Garrett
today I'm not so happy . The gap in in this coaching staff is it's taking too long.

My take is through the lens of a rebuild that had the likes of Phil Costa,Kyle Koster,
first year Tyron Smith and so on. We went through 3 years of 8-8 seasons to start
getting on the positive side of 50,50. I know the following up one year and down the next
and here is where you and I and many others part ways.I see an a better team being built.
Sarge you don't

i looked at schedule and cannot find 10 wins...i am just tired of all the false expectations that we have a super bowl team when we stink..makes me so sick
Cards, Rams, 49ers, Chargers, Giants once, Commanders twice, Eagles once and I had the Boys splitting the following four games:
Packers, Chiefs, Raiders and Seahawks. My more optimistic side believed we could beat the Broncos and maybe go 11-5.
The Falcons are the only team on the schedule that I did not see this team having a shot at beating in the regular season. I also did not believe this was a Super Bowl team. Not this year.

I'm not buying all of the outrage at this point.

We are only a whopping 4 games in.

And it's not like we're 0-4 and a complete mess like some other teams are.

2-2 is not the end of the world. This team has not played it's best ball yet. They will improve. Let's see where we end up.
