Dallas Cowboys, the only NFL team not allowed to lose

[CanadianCowboysFan]

We are the only NFL team not allowed to lose. Romo the only QB not allowed to have an off game.

Whenever we win a "big game", it stops being a big game when we win. Whenever we lose a game, it is always a big game.

Romo allegedly couldn't win the big game, we all thought that was over after NO and the two Eagle games but nope, now he can't win the game game again.

It is beyond sickening.

Welcome to the life of being a Cowboy fan.

Welcome to the life of being a Cowboy fan.

Yes, but the way espn is making a big deal about Wade returning is a joke. Not one word on Norv turner. I understand we draw ratings, but this overreaction is ridiculous.

Amen to all three posts.

Too bad for all the haters we're not going away.

Is Phillips the best, no but only Switzer had more regular wins in his first three years as Cowboy head coach than Wade.

Wade had 13, 9, 11

Switzer 12, 12, 10

It's not just the media though. I think this is a mentality the media has taken on thanks to the way a lot of Cowboys fans look at things.

I think when you lose a game by 31 points you deserve to be ridiculed.

for the game perhaps but don't bring up the "can't win the big game" crap over and over when it has been proven incorrect.

True, but the media acts like Dallas was the favorite to win the super bowl. According to most we were no better than third in our division. Again, were is the reaction from san Diego. You don't think they want turner and keadings head on a platter. San Diego's choke job yesterday was far worse than ours.

I think when you have an 11 game winning streak then lose AT HOME to an upstart team you deserve to be ridiculed, but it aint happening so much. That's the point of this thread. Everything is maginified when it's the Cowboys. Surely you know this.

No one is ripping Rivers for not winning a big game. He threw INTs in the second half yesterday. His blame is being deflected to Kaeding but is Romo's behind deflected to Suisham?

Well...lets be fair there. If Kaeding hits 2 of his 3 then they win.

Suisham could have hit his other two and it wouldn't make a difference on the scoreboard. We still got blown out.

So true. Some folks need to get a soul....or maybe watch what's going on in Haiti.

Well you went away this year!!!!! BAM GO Vikes!!!!!!!!!!

Is that Romo's fault? He has received some criticism as if he was supposed to be Superman yesterday. Some are saying Favre did better under pressure, but Favre was not under the same type of duress. The Cowboys got beaten. It happens to every team, but the Cowboys get lambasted way more than others. It comes with the territory.

so Rivers two INTs in the second half had no bearing on the outcome?

You know damn well if you exchange Romo and Suisham for Rivers and Kaeding, Romo would be getting roasted for his INTs.not Suisham.

Much of the sports media is a bunch of slime balls.

None of them can be objective. There biases almost always are apparent. In fact, there is probably always an ulterior motive with them.

They are the kings of post-facto rationalization. If they are right or wrong, they will twist a story to fit whatever they want, to make themselves look good, all the while humiliating those they do not like in the process. It is the benefit of the one-sided pulpit.

There seems to be little to no sense of moral conscience unless called out.

How many Super Bowls has San Diego won?

Expectations are much higher in Dallas. We have a history of winning, so that is what is expected. Especially when you have a team this talented, they are expected to win. It may not be fair, but it is what it is. It's like the Yankees, if they don't win the World Series, the season is a disappointment.

San Diego in recent years has definitely become the king of choking in the postseason though, I will say that. At least our loss was on the road in one of the toughest stadiums to get a win. Another team that is overlooked for choking is the Colts. You never hear about the fact that they have 1 Super Bowl win in 9 trips to the postseason (this year being the 10th, we'll see how it turns out). It wasn't until Manning's 7th postseason that he won a Super Bowl, Dungy's 5th. So let's not get our panties all in a bunch here, we can still get back to winning it all with Romo and Wade.

Until Romo and company can find a way to win the Super Bowl or at least make it there, he's JAG.

More like the O-line is full of JAGs (at least yesterday). Romo needs some help from the Boys up front and he didn't get it.
