Eagles didn't exactly crush Texans either

[Joe Realist]

Eagles are going to beat the Cowboys by more than they beat the Texans by and more than when they beat the Cowboys the first time

 

[TWOK11]

Yeah they're not exactly peaking right now. Really bad against the Texans, struggled for 3 quarters with the Colts until they gave the game away with all those turnovers, bad first half against the Giants. That's the last 3 games.

They had their best game of the season a week before in the Vikings rout but lost to the Packers the week before that.

Maybe this just isn't that good of a team?

You don’t get to be 10-3 by accident in the NFL. This isn’t college where half your games might be against teams you have an order of magnitude more talent then.

How good they are is to be determined, but they are clearly one of the five best teams in the league this year. If they aren’t then you have to list which five you’d put ahead of them.

I figured you are an Eagles fan. Always crapping on Dallas and always sucking up to the Eagirls.

Ahhh, the one trick pony randomly shows up to play the you aren't as big a Cowboys fan as me card.

The word you were looking for is realist. I am a Cowboys fan. But I am not a dumb Cowboys fan. Right now, only a blind homer would try to argue we are as good or better than Philly.

Yeah well I don’t believe it. Your words here say just the opposite.

Eagles, 49ers, Bills, Chiefs, Ravens. You could even argue that the Bengals right now are better. They aren't the same team we faced in Week 2.

Admittedly, I am letting past seasons color my opinion. I don't have any faith in this organization to be able to play one of those 5 teams I just listed in the postseason and win. Too many times I've seen this team just fizzle in the postseason when they should win. Show me is the only logical position for me at this point.

No one on this board has ever accused you of being smart.

But you have been called a fraud given your disappearing acts when the team gets bounced early in the playoffs.

 

[Booger]

Exactly......any team can beat another team on any given Sunday. The level of talent on each team is a lot closer than people realize. Weird things happen every sunday.....the NFL is a strange lady.

Very well stated. Bravo, my man. Bravo.

There are no objective criteria by which you could place the Ravens or Bengals above the Cowboys. Dallas has a better record, a better defense and since Dak returned a better offense than both.

And if you’re giving me the Cowboys and the points against rookie Brock Purdy in an NFL playoff game I’ll take that bet all day long.

Their game against Houston was tied 14-14 at halftime and they were only up 21-17 going into the fourth quarter. Philadelphia scored eight points in the fourth quarter to put it away. That was without having the mistakes that we made to help Houston.

Not saying that means anything other than there's no real reason to panic. We'll see how we measure up to the Eagles a couple of weeks from now. Every game is different.

Anyone who has watched football for more than 3 days should know these games happen.

I think we've apologized enough for a WIN. Time to move forward and re-focus. They could very well turn that game into a positive lesson.

Actually that proves I’m smart. What smart person would stay around after losing in the playoffs and hear how bad every player and every coach is from the bottom feeders like you? I’ve got better things to do with my life.

So you think this Cowboys team would beat the Ravens in a postseason game? I don't. Until they prove they can actually show up in January, I think it's foolish to just assume they can beat anyone. I am at the prove it stage with these guys. There's no reason to have faith in them.

And I'd bet a heavy sum of money you claimed there is no way Jimmy G would beat us in January and yet he did. Purdy doesn't have to be great for the 49ers to beat us. He only has to be decent, at best. They are that good around him - can run the ball (our weakness), can stop the run, can rush the passer, better coached, etc.

No it proves you to be spineless. After berating fans on this board for not being as good of fans as you and not thinking this Cowboys team is one of the best in the league and would show it in the playoffs, you disappear when they lose a home playoff game and get booted from the postseason early again. When the fans who questioned how good this team was were proven right, you vanished for months.

It's not because you were smart. You just couldn't stand to have to take your medicine.

And if they lose in the playoffs I’ll disappear until next season. Don’t want to read a bunch of losers like you pounding your little chests bragging how happy you are they lost just so you can say I told you.

I don't apologize for winning, but it sometimes seems necessary to reiterate how the game works.

At least you admit you are a fraud.

 

[Aerolithe_Lion]

We struggled with the Texans more than they did.

They struggled with the Colts more than we did.

We struggled with the Packers more than they did.

They struggled with the Lions more than we did.

What does it all mean? Heck if I know.

We struggled with the Commanders more than you did, but you guys seem to be struggling with the Cowboys more than we did

Yet -- 99.9% of the CZers were dissing the Eagles win after that game 5 1/2'weeks ago.

Not a fraud, just don’t dwell in the sewers like you and so many more here do.
