Unfortunately for the Cowboys, Ellis has no idea what a winner smells like, having never been one.

Well, he has been stuck in Dallas his whole career..... so......

"That this-is-the-greatest-thing-ever-assembled kind of thing is gone, and people realize we can be beat," Ellis said. "We've gotta show up and not just yell and scream at 'em. We can't win like that. We've got to show up and play good football. That is what's changed. Not just from the players, but to me, from top to bottom."

That's the same impression I got from Jerry Jones' audio which DCFanatic posted recently. It's certainly what I had been waiting for since Week Four and hope that it continues through :crossed: the playoffs. We have the talent, but we have to silence all excuses and play like there is no tomorrow every single game from here on out.

First good line i hear from Ellis in months. Hope he keeps it up that way and doesn't start to cry again....

I figure he knows what a loser smells like. Obviously this smells different to him... Guess different isn't always better, but I'll be optimistic.
