Blue-collar and quiet but still kick your butt.
I suppose if I had to pick one, it'd be this one as that's the main identity of the Cowboys over the decades.

^^^ ..none of the above. Rather have psychotic, schizophrenic and delusional. ..
Wrong team.Just Win Baby....
If blue collar is hard working, then the Cowboys have always been blue collar. Their image is flashy, but that's not the players. That's PR and, more importantly, the media. Tex Schramm told the media the Cowboys are special and they believed it. After all, it wasn't a lie. Those 70s teams were appealing as hell. They were also hard working. IMO the Dallas Cowboys have always been a flashy blue collar team. They are proof that a team can be both.When have the Cowboys ever been blue collar and quiet?
As we all know, the Cowboys have always had a reputation for being Hollywood-ish. Loudmouthed in the 1990s, Jimmy guaranteeing victory over San Fran, the debauchery, glamor, ratings, media hype, etc.
I suspect many of us here are San Antonio Spurs fans too like I am, and they are the polar opposite of the Cowboys - a low key, well disciplined, blue collar, quiet but highly successful team (until recently.) Generally, I prefer the blue-collar type and dislike flash and hype. But the Cowboys brand is fundamentally high-profile and attention-grabbing.
So, if you could choose, would you rather the Cowboys be glamorous and loud, or low-key?
Is it the offseason yet?As we all know, the Cowboys have always had a reputation for being Hollywood-ish. Loudmouthed in the 1990s, Jimmy guaranteeing victory over San Fran, the debauchery, glamor, ratings, media hype, etc.

Just win.They were both in 92 & 93.
Externally they were brash with Mike Irvin leading the way, however...
- They had a blue collar work ethic.
In some ways this team over the last 25 years seems to take on the persona of the fan base in believing they deserve or are going to win just for existing. Too many seasons they were babbling way too much before the season started about the SB, then collapsed at the onset. Conversely they overachieved in seasons they were quiet and humble… 2014, no one was expecting much because of the defense and 2016, Romo went down early in Seattle. Guess I would like for them to just shut up, play some smash mouth and not get the big head based on what the media talking heads are saying, until they’ve actually done something!As we all know, the Cowboys have always had a reputation for being Hollywood-ish.
