Cowboys Nation - Where a win is never a win

[baltcowboy]

Life Cycle of a Super Negative Cowboys Zone Poster Yesterday:

1. Gets ready for game. Practicing their latest "I told you so, props to me" post about Dak.

2. Game is off, Offense falls flat again, Chargers score on their first series. More posts getting revved up. Who else can we single out?

3. Cowboys hold their ground. Offense proves they can come back from a lost lead. Team is recovering from SF pounding.

4. Trying to act happy about the win like most of the other fans.

5. In Cowboys Zone, talking about yesterday's win.

Disclaimer: By giving our negative nellies a hard time and having fun, this by no means classifies me as a homer, Dak Lover, someone who thinks we're going to the Super Bowl, or whatever other extremes are out there.

You got Mountain

It was a good win. A win the team can build off of I think.

Kudos to those that don't just mindlessly celebrate wins any way they can get them and hold the team to a higher standard than that. A standard set by Landry and reinforced by Jimmy.

They are treating the Cowboys franchise as any other. You are saying they're special. So well done.

Mindlessly celebrate wins? Good grief. First of all it was a win that showed some grit and determination. Cowboys had a lot of playcalls go against them. Secondly a win is a win. Do giants fans mindlessly celebrate their last 2 superbowls? They didnt play perfect. Should they give the trophies back?

I can't deny the issues on this team. But wow just take a breath a be grateful for the win. The Cowboys could have gone into the tank after the 49ers embarrassment but they fought back and won a road game! Maybe it's time to accept that this years Cowboys aren't the 1985 Chicago Bears but aren't the 1976 Tampa Bay Buccaneers either.

Sure the Cowboys got dethroned in October as the media Super Bowl favorite, but they are still in the fight. It's not time to throw in the towel. Just saying.

Bland has some talent but I am sure missing Treyvon. We were lucky on those deep overthrows for sure. I will take the win as it was a nice drive for the game winner and a nice defensive stand at the end of game! Love to win that way - lot of satisfaction!

Just like I said last week, it doesn't matter if Dallas wins. Dallas is only judged on their loses.

This board should only be open in January because that's the only time Dallas can win.

The stupidity of some posters on this board is immense.

The west coast version of the Cowboys and playing against Kellen Moore was what the doctor ordered. Perfect team to play when needing a win. They have zero homefield advantage due to no one in LA caring about football, and definitely not a transplant team from San Diego. That almost seemed like a home game at times. Which isn't surprising seeing as there are a ton of Cowboys fans in California.

Huge difference in 4-2 and 3-3. At least we stay in striking distance of SF and we control our own destiny with our division. Being 2 behind the Eagles this early would have been bad.

I still have a ton of doubts of this team but let's not pretend the Eagles look like world beaters. They were 15yds away from losing to the Pats. A team that is very bad. Hurts has more picks than TDs than season. Their little QB sneak is the highlight of their season so far.

4 and 2, awesome win!

Sarcasm aside, at least give the Cowboys credit for fighting back and winning the game. Not easy to come back after an embarrassing loss. Maybe that's not relevant or important for you as you sit in your easy chair.

No sarcasm in my post, don't even know what's your point

adding, "just saying" to the end of a statement makes what your saying not as credible. Make your statement and don't add a cliche that you think helps make it viable.

In general, most people are happy with the win. I know I am but this team has a long way to go to be considered any more than one and done in the playoffs.

I agree with your second paragraph. But aren't you being a little harsh on the just saying bit? Just saying LOL.

"Good Job. The two most dangerous words in the English language"

Can anyone name the movie? Its not the exact quote but close. The movie is disgusting propaganda.

....I thought that movie was awesome. Being a musician in the past, I could relate.

But yeah, having a hard headed, narcissistic teacher like movie portrayed. WOuldnt happen in real world.

Sorry I read your post the wrong way.

Oh there are many egotistical professors out there like that and not just music departments!

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

Im happy for the win. wasnt pretty...but its a win.

The yo yo effect gives me some caution. Now put a streak together and im going nuts!

 

[Trendnet]

It’s no wonder Cowboys fans are the laughingstock of the NFL

People like you are the laughing stock - most of us aren't.

 

[Bing]

I'm glad we got the win but that said I was expecting us to win. A loss would of been a huge disappointment. Losing to teams we are suppose to beat is never fun. Losing to teams we are expected to lose to is not quite as bad.

.. I hear ya. Glad, I didnt walk through those doors. ..

No, no I am not. It's lazy and if you put the time in to research and write something, the intelligence of that work will speak for itself.

This is pretty darn good!

Every position must be manned by a 1st team All Pro, every coach must be a future Tom Landry/Bill ParcellsJimmy Johnson.

Every D-lineman must have double digit sacks, every DB 10 INT's. Dak must have zero INT's. Pollard should have 2000 yards.

The margin of victory must be at least 20 points each game.

Still.....

Someone will complain....guaranteed.

Title of this thread is perfect.

Great to win. And myself as a fan will enjoy it over the next two weeks. Because the first page of threads are already 100% better than the past week.

I am sure some will be back after they huddle in the walls. I already seen less traffic today.
Still much to clean up. So I will not get hyped upped. But will enjoy the win.
