STs are a 1/3 of the game. Don't love the phrase but won't argue with 'bad STs kill championship dreams'.

Didnt we give up a quick 7 to Arizona in the opening minutes of the game THEN gave up another quick 7 at the end of the game? both special teams failures?

Or Holmes long punt return against Pittsburgh.

I absolutely hate saying so-and-so costed us the game, but special teams cost us at least 2 games this season.

I've tried to put most of last season out my memory but I'm sure there were other instances.

1) Weaknesses like TO and forcing the offense through him, at the expense of the ground game
Guess what genius? They didn't use the ground game and TO wasn't a weakness when they went 13-3.

Yep.

One of the reasons why they lost to the Giants in playoffs two seasons ago, was that of the special teams play. Jimmy Johnson said that you have to win two-thirds of game and the Giants won on Defense and Special Teams in the 07 playoffs.

So yes, special teams play is very significant to the success of our team next season.

Ok, I have followed the cowboys since 1975, been a Member here for 5 years and have visited D/FW since 1970 numerous times (Brother lives in N Richland Hills) and listen to the Ticket and ESPN 103 on line, seen the Boys play at home 10 times and see them on the road every year at Philly, NYG and they're 2 trips to Baltimore, I know a little as well, I get educated by all the Eagle, Commander and Steeler fans here.;)

Just a side note. Whether you've been on CZ for 5 years or 1 minute, it doesn't make you smarter at football. Just a note.

Yeah, I disagree with this. Plenty of people on this site worth paying attention to on given topics. Getting smarter is voluntary.

LOL all "changes" that should have been addressed 2 years ago.

weaknesses that Wade brought to the cowboys & never should have needed correcting to begin with.

sorta like being proud of having running water in your house.

trending a day late & dollar short as usual

Well, you never miss the water 'til the well runs dry,
and once you're without faucet water, you're glad to get it back.

Be grateful.

:rolleyes:

Yeah, let's be thankful for our wonderful 9-7 team, we could be the Lions. I'm okay with mediocrity.
