While the Cowboys had some momentous marks in 2022 making the playoffs in consecutive seasons for the first time since 2006 and 2007 also winning our first road playoff game since 1992 we also set and continued some futility marks as well.

First Cowboys team to have consecutive 12 win seasons without a championship game appearance. And if we make the playoffs again without a championship appearance will not only continue that mark with first Cowboys team to make playoffs 3 consecutive seasons( regardless our record) without at least a championship appearance.

The biggest futility mark we currently own is the longest draught in NFL history for Divisional Round appearances without a Championship Game appearance. Currently stands at 7.

Cowboys have a ton of moneys to get off their backs. And this doesn’t include the monkeys on our owners back as well as those on our QB’s.

It’s looking like until we finally knock down the Championship Game door after almost 3 decades which is currently the biggest monkey on the Cowboys back, the futility marks will continue. Our owner has already set this as the expectation for 2023. The time is now !!
We got the Brady monkey one off last year.

To me the BIG monkey is the Niners in the playoffs. Thats the thing that has stopped us the last two years.

What if two of those monkeys are PHL and SF being better teams?

There is too much improvement in a vacuum thinking. These other teams are not standing pat.

I think DAL is the 3rd best team in the NFC but what if they’re 4th or 5th. Anyone ready for that?
I see them as the 3rd also. Who is 4th and 5th?

Besides a championship, the pressure to get past the divisional round is definitely getting larger by the year. Specially as the team improves! For a good part of 30 years we knew they had no legitimate shot, but now that they do, we'll see if they can actually handle that pressure.. or fold!
Getting to the championship game will be great, but if we lose its going to be the same BS all over again. All the trolls will blame Dak and say the same stupid stuff over and over just up the ante to getting to the SB.
