Probably 75% of the threads, posts since the March 15th have been crapping on the Cowboys. And that’s probably conservative. I’ve heard things like “26 more years of mediocrity”, “team has no chance with Jerry”, “team has no chance with Stephen”, “team has no chance with Dak”, etc, etc, etc. It’s like a big sleepover with a bunch of 12 yr old girls. It doesn’t matter the age group, many of the old farts are there with the young farts. It’s been quite entertaining. It’s like they don’t realize that every year a new team goes out there on week 1. Not the team from the previous year, but a new team. And of recent, new coaches. Much needed new coaches.

So my question, is why have all you Haters given up so easily? Why have you quit on the team? Why are you even here since you have?

It’s a new year, with new players, with new coaches. Last year the team experienced the most injuries in one year since I’ve been a fan and that has been since 63. There’s never been as many injuries to key players as last year. So what do you expect after that a damn Super Bowl? Get real. Put down the damn Madden game. Quit watching Stephen A Smith and all the talking heads like him.

This team is on the precipice of great success. When Dak’s been healthy the offense scores points. He’s had 23, 22, 23 and 30 TD’s in his first 4 years and 9 in 4.5 games last year.

Since Dak has taken over the Cowboys average
26.6 pts per game in 2016,
22.7 in 2017,
21.4 in 2018
27.1 in 2019
And over 30 puts per game in 2020 before he got injured.

And that’s with some of the worst defenses overall during those years in the NFL. Defenses that could not get off the field.

So now we have yet again a new DC. One with some great creds. MM is in his 2nd year as the HC. It’s really his first as last year he had no time to implement his culture to the organization because of Covid. Yet the team won 3 out of the last 4 games. With all those critical injuries.

Many of you haters will ***** up until a Super Bowl win and some of you will ***** about certain players performance. You need to take a close look at yourself. Why have you given up? Why have you quit? Every year is different. Don’t quit. Don’t ever, ever give up. Keep fighting or resign yourself to being losers.

I'd be willing to bet it's mostly the younger fans doing all crybaby stuff due to 1. not being around for previous championships and 2. social media age - people obsess over the most minute stuff , things that nobody enven cared about in years past.

Surely you know the reason - and it's not 'Giving Up"
Most of the people who populate this board are ardent Cowboy fans. Some longer than others, Its the frustration of this F.O. that drives everyone balmy.
It used to be that Jerry would throw money at the talent problems each year. Missed more the won, but had some big wins. Last 7 - 10 years, the drafting has been much better, but the free Agency has dropped right off the face of the map.

My frustration level is this - they have tried it both ways, but refuse to find a balance between College players - Draft. And pro players - Free Agency. We all watched when they refused to Draft the DT that they had rated 5th on their board (Was the Fredricks draft). Was the difference of Scouts vs Coach's. Cost the coordinator his job, they went out and got Will McClay. (The player wasn't the problem, the way the two sides couldn't agree was). But they learned from that mistake.
Now, F.A. has been a problem for a long time - and they wont adapt, they haven't learned.
I've said for the last 2 years at least that Jerry must see that his time remaining with the Cowboys is limited, his window to get back to a Super Bowl is rapidly closing. He cant stay passive on one side of the talent acquisition timeline. They have to find a balance.
But they refuse to play both sides of the coin. Surely they must see it, they aren't that blind. No-one wants to see them do what the Patriots are doing this year, but they have to find some sort of compromise.
The fact that they blatantly refuse to do it is what infuriates everyone.
We all love/like this team, or we wouldn't spend so much time here.
We all want them to be better, So when they continue to hamstring themselves year after year - you get to where we are now.
Cynical and continuously disappointed.

Don't hate the team, do hate last years defense, and unless we add some talent to that side of the ball 8 and 8 is a real possibility

Every year has been the same for 25+ years and from all indications they are repeating their same approach to team building this offseason. Dak gives me less confidence than Romo, so he is not a positive motivating factor. You are one of those fans that thinks you are part of the team. Grow up! Fans do not fight for wins and our opinion means nothing to the team. We have no effect on winning and losing. You are just an old guy with an internet connection and you can pretend to be a Cowboy if you want, but pretending is not reality.
