Five days before the season

[erod]

...and all we're focused on and taking about is domestic violence, suspensions, restraining orders, arbitrators, and Article 46.

Well, that and Kellen Moore.

Disgusting. What is Witten and Tyron thinking? The rookies? Dak? I bet Romo is glad he's not here for this.

 

[WillieBeamen]

If the coach is as good as some on here say he is, all of these distractions wont matter and they will be laser focused for Sunday

"Disgusting" Erod?

This team is a top 5 team in the eyes of most experts. Have you forgotten the years of 8-8?

No, not everything is perfect, however, there is a LOT to like and to be optimistic about with this year's club.

 

[RJ_MacReady]

I just want to see Switzer field a Gosh Dang Punt!

Most experts I've read have Dallas missing the playoffs or getting in as a wild card.

But I don't listen to them. I smell 10-6 today. Changes with the wind.

 

[jwitten82]

I just hope the team doesnt come out flat like they usually do. The Giants always seem more energized than Dallas

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

You don't like the subjects being discussed so instead of starting a thread on a new subject you instead choose to whinge about the subjects on the board?

I think Witten and Tyron are focused on NYG.

 

[TheRomoSexual]

What does it matter what "we're" focused on? It's fan-inflated self-delusion.

 

[DOUBLE WING]

I'm guessing Tyron, Witten, Dak and the rest are busy preparing for the Giants and not reading CowboysZone. Just a hunch.

 

[Stash]

Personally, I liked the preparedness of the team I saw during the preseason.

They looked prepared and well coached to me, and I expect that will continue.

There may be a ton of stuff around Elliott but I don't think that's affecting the preparation of the other 52 players on this team.

And I've never seen any of the off-filed stuff affect Elliott either. I think he's able to separate the two pretty well.

I'm not worried at all and in fact I'm expecting a solid, convincing win Sunday night.

I suspect they are thinking about the giants and Sunday night football...fans and the media, are the only ones fixated on this background noise.

 

[DallasEast]

What is Witten and Tyron thinking?

Witten: "It will really suck if we get to the playoffs and lose. Again."
Tyron: "Whoever they line up next to me better do their <expletive> job."

The rookies?

Jerry Jones is one cool old dude.

Dak?

No Elliott suspension. The power of positive thinking.
No Elliott suspension. The power of positive thinking.
No Elliott suspension. The power of positive thinking...

I bet Romo is glad he's not here for this.

It is rare whenever a professional athlete retires from their sport and does not regret leaving to some degree. Of course, there is the occasional Barry Sanders but I am talking about pro athletes in general...

I'm on the fence with JG overall, but dealing with this crap here-no one better

I remain optimistic the leadership on the team will have us ready!
3 inch headlines "we will win the game"

 

[Swanny]

Just because the fans and media are thinking about something doesn't mean it's the only thing the players are thinking about. There is nothing more OVERRATED than distractions. Unless that distraction is causing players to hate each other. Something like a TO distraction in Philly or SF. Now you could say Zeke is distracted yes. But to say the whole team is is just drama.

I bet Witten and Dak and Tyron aren't really worrying about any of this. They are just focused on the game.

I doubt there is very little difference in the mindset of the actual players from this year to last. For them, I suspect it is business as usual. I'm sure they'd like to see a departure from questions about it, but in terms of their focus, it is absolutely on the Giants. Or at least, that's my guess...but I could be wrong.

 

[BrAinPaiNt]

Team or defense is Probably trying to get Price and J Elliott caught up.

 

[robjay04]

Distractions come with the Cowboys.

This is what the fans are talking about, I doubt is what the locker room is talking about.

I agree except coverage. There were breakdowns every game.
