CFZ Cowboys win mark of a good team

[Diehardblues]

Good teams find a way to win when they have a bad performance.

We provided the Texans every opportunity to win yesterday with multiple turnovers and poor QB play.

It also helped we were playing the worst record team in the league. We probably don’t overcome that poor performance against a playoff caliber team.

I wasn’t totally surprised. I felt it would be hard getting the team up against a 1-10 Texan team being 17 point favorites at home . I felt better after our opening drive . But the fumbled punt provided them their first opportunity.

Just what we didn’t want was to give life and momentum to a team accustomed to losing. But we continued giving them life and momentum . We even provided them on the 4 yard line an opportunity to put the game away.

In the end they acted like a losing team. And our QB and offense came to life with a game winning drive to squash what would have been a very embarrassing loss at home supporting we are more pretenders than contenders.

Bad teams find new ways to lose and good teams find ways to win. Fortunately for us we were facing a very bad team.

We have some more lose-able games coming up. Jags are playing better , Titans usually tough at home, Egirls and Skins . This shouldn’t have been one of them.

Hopefully we can breathe a sigh of relief and it will wake us up. And be thankful we are good enough to overcome.

The Cowboys are a good team….the problem is that the Eagles and Niners are GREAT teams this year

we could really win 14 games and end up still second in the division having to play a road game

And false hope will remain high as we get to face and beat the lowly Bucs or Panthers in the first round.

it’s only a matter of time before reality comes home again

That’s fine. We can’t control how great they are. But we need to be the best version we can be. Yesterday wasn’t it.

 

[DeaconMoss]

They almost lost to the worse team in the NFL. I think that's a sign of a not good football team.

that’s the problem with the team and it’s quarterback….both are inconsistent.

Yep, that can be a problem.

It’s a reason for concern. But winning games you shouldn’t or finding a way to win is a sign of a good team.

For Houston, it’s also a sign of a bad team when it’s gift-wrapped for you and can’t seal the deal.

This team has the 2nd best record in football despite playing in arguably the toughest division.

They are on a four game win streak outscoring their opposition by 149 - 65, two of those wins against teams that would be in the playoffs if it all ended today, all while showing significant improvement in their biggest flaw, run defense, in each of those four games....yet it's not good enough for half of the posters on here.

Powder puff fans would rather we not make the playoffs at all. Them don't want they hearts to hurt.

Waaahhh!!!

And then we will get destroyed by the Vikings!

 

[Doomsday101]

Been watching NFL since the mid 60's and games like yesterday happen to every team out there. As as Diehardblues said good teams overcome.

 

[shabazz]

Waaahhh!!!

……sure, but most importantly Dak gets 1 more playoff win to get his record to 2-3. Hurray!

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

Yes.

You're not really a good team unless you beat a 1-10 team with a GWD.

Blowing bad teams out is for losers.

 

[fivetwos]

Forget yesterday. They no showed. It happens.

When they are on, they are finally good enough to get it done, but don’t seem to be getting the breaks, which is also needed.

That could change come playoff season.

 

[Aven8]

The season is sooo long. It’s tough to play great every game. These dudes actually have lives outside of football too. They have also been dealing with the flu for what seems like a month.

 

[Doomsday101]

Yes.

No you are a good team when you play like crap for much of the game yet show the heart and fight to pull it out in the end. No one is saying we should play like this every week but on a day that this team played poor and sloppy football they were able to show enough fight to get the win instead of just hanging their heads and losing it

Remember Your talking about the Dallas Cowboys. A team the fans can’t trust. A team that builds up the hype only to let the fans down.

A team built for fandom and regular season …..not a team built for a playoff run. Year after year it’s the same thing. Off season it’s a super bowl team. Regular season they beat up on under 500 teams only to go one and out in the playoffs

DONT TRUST the Dallas Cowboys. Enjoy the ride but temper the expectations
