Hypocrite, u insult yet dont expect it in return.
Except I did not insult you. I merely pointed out that you misunderstood the gist of the post.


Can we still be friends?

No your point was to say i was dumb for not getting your point. I disagree with your point, u cant grasp that.

Go from good to great. Thats the standard. If u guys want to be satified with average, then so be it. Go have a marshmellow roast and give each other back rubs, i want this D to be better than good.

dude, it's preseason

and I don't anyone on here wants just average, or good, from the Cowboys, but they'll gladly take it, and they also don't want to hear things that just aren't true

What's with the anger and vitriol?

As I said earlier, you might need to reevaluate your expectations. Defenses seldom, if ever, play with a playoff-level intensity in the preseason. They aren't even playing with a regular season-level intensity yet.

No, you distorted what we said to make it seem unreasonable.

Okay.

I sit down next to the campfire fire where I find a measure of contentment in the embryonic warmth generated by the flames. They immediately captivate me with their sharp crackle and hypnotic waver as they devour the logs I had so studiously gathered earlier in the day. Next to me, Windward is intently roasting marshmallows and Bob Sacamano begins strumming his guitar. Indiscernible and entirely random at first, the chords begin taking a familiar musical form. All three of us break into song.

:laugh2:

Classic.
 
I don't get all the craziness either. Outside of the one drive, what the hell did Houston do? Nothing. Some idiots on here act like the Cowboys were the ones who gave up 266 yards and couldn't stop a soul in the first half. Houston had 10 yards on 3 drives in the first quarter and had 128 (80 on the one drive) yards at the half. You can't really ask for much more from a defense.

This is not bad defense:

Qt TOP Start plays yds result

1 02:01 DAL 37 7 11 Field Goal
1 01:31 HOU 26 3 5 Punt
1 00:58 HOU 27 3 -6 Punt
2 06:17 HOU 20 12 80 Touchdown
2 01:14 HOU 20 7 38 Punt
 
I think it has too do with all the talk about how "great" these guys are going to be and all the talk from defensive players talking about how good they can be.

In reality they are playing as if they are average. This defense has so much talent on it it's not even funny. But yet they play as if they are average. This defense should be a Top 5 defense this year and so far they look like last year. We filled up the problems with the defense last year which was the secondary and yet they still look pedestrian. I guess people think that them playing average is ok.
