Does this win feel like a LOSS or do I need a sports psychologist?

[CowboysFanSince88]

It's so hard for me to show my teeth after a pitiful win like this today in OT. We struggled to beat a team that the Giants and Eagles had a easy day against which can mean one thing. I don't care what anyone says, a win over a 0-4 team in OT is a LOSS. I'm so disgusted right now I can PUKE.

If you can't enjoy the wins, you should probably stop watching. Otherwise, it's an unhealthy obsession.

It's a win. I don't care if it's an ugly win or whatever. I'll take wins anyway they come.

The Chiefs should have been celebrating their morally victorious defeat while we pouted at our morally defeated victory at the end of the game, not the other way around.

It was the Chiefs players that should have piled on in the endzone on top of Miles Austin at the conclusion of the game, not the Dallas Cowboys.

wow, I'm not really excited about thsi win either but at least they showed that they didn't give up. This team easily could have thrown in the towel at the end of the 1st half but they came out and kept plugging away.

I'm happy we won. We've just gotta play better.

You should be happy that they did not fold up their tent and let the Chiefs win it in OT. That is a step up from what they have done in the past IMO.

They stopped the Chiefs twice in OT and the offense produced a win after that.

There is nothing wrong with looking at the problems this team has, with wanting them to get better...but at the same time it's ok to be happy when they win even if it is not in a manner that you feel deserves your appreciation.

Seriously, It won't kill you to be happy with a win. I will take an ugly win any day over a pretty loss.

Hell no, it doesn't feel like a loss. If feels like a win and I am ecstatic any time the Cowboys win. Fans who expect the Cowboys to blow out the opposition every week are setting themselves up for disappointment. We should be 5-0 right now, but I'll take the 3-2 and hope the Cowboys solve all of their problems going forward.

Moral loss. We can take some positives from this game and build upon it. However, I hope the team is not content and works hard at fixing their mistakes (i.e. penalties).

 

[Avaj]

It is a win, but a win with some concerns. After the bye we have Atlanta and after seeing them today, we need to bring our A game no doubt.

Moral loss

No such-a thing.

Are you just trolling or what? I'll never understand why people like you come here and contribute constant whining. I mean, the Cowboys won.

They aren't the Giants and aren't playing as well because they aren't as good at this point obviously but it is what it is so why cry??

I'm so sick of the "fans since 88/ fans since the Cowboys were championship caliber" I could PUKE. Go away.

 

[Kilyin]

throw yourself into a trash compactor imo.

 

[CowboysFanSince88]

I feel it just makes us look like a "FAKE 3-2" because it's obvious we are not playing that well just good enough to get by.

Kind like a student in school having all C's on their first report card. Well I will take the win but I'm still not pleased.

 

[BadKarma]

We're 3-2...sure we haven't exactly played great football, but I'll take the win. We won against 3 teams who've yet to record a win but we also lost against 2 undefeated teams.

Enjoy the win. The Giants did when they barely beat us.

Look, the team just isn't that good right now. For whatever the reason. It's dangerous enough to beat teams they probably shouldn't and inconsistent enough to lose to the teams they shouldn't lose to. I don't know how they will win against some of those teams but my hope is they are going to play better down the stretch and maybe this game is the turning point.
Either way, it's a desperate win. As bad as it started there are A LOT of reasons to be optimistic.
Most importantly I believe the defense has jelled and after the bye Felix, Barber, Gurode, Mike Hamlin, RW11, Flo, and even Ware should be healthy.
Try to be happy.
