The last time the Cowboys went to the Super Bowl they had a great recipe. They had the "triplets", a great offensive line, and a deep rotating defensive line to name just a few of those ingredients. Are they getting closer to recreating that recipe?

The Cowboys went to three Super Bowls in four years by having a great recipe for success. They had a running back who could run the ball 30 times a game if needed. He could get 100 yard games and gained over 4.5 yards per carry. They had a dominating offensive line that could open up the red sea. They had defensive lines that were not only deep with eight guys that could rotate effectively so they were fresh in the fourth quarter, but they also had the right kind of guys that loved to play football.

The Cowboys also had a guy that wore # 88 who was an elite wide receiver, and a quarterback who was able to throw efficiently for 300 yards or more when needed, but seldom needed to because he had the running back that could carry the team, and did carry the team often.


They had a head coach who knew how to find the right offensive coordinator, the right defensive coordinator, and the right special teams coordinator. That head coach would often talk about how there were three phases of the game, offense, defense, and special teams, and all they had to do was win two of the three.

But they also knew that in order to be able to successfully compete with the very best, they needed an elite defensive end. And so they traded for Charles Haley and boom, they finally hit on the perfect recipe

you dont need that in todays NFL, just the right schedules, other teams to have injuries, and hit in novemeber, and thats all it takes.

Give me a couple of edge rushers and a decent FS in the offseason and I like our chances next year as long as Romo stays relatively healthy

I think he left off one ingredient. A shut-down CB...ala Kevin Smith pre-Achilles and Deion after that.

you can have a wishlist of players, but if the coaches cant get them to play that way, its going to be rough. I like how our defense is coming along, but it still has a road to go.
