I have a brother n law that is a Pats fan. Which is really annoying. And he said that would never happen there in the regular season. Which is why I asked what you guys thought.

Big Bill would cut the whole team. lol

My only concern is that they are celebrating prematurely. They have their sights set higher. Win a playoff game first. Otherwise it's still a fail after going 12-4. Save it for the playoffs.

You identified the problem right there - you listened to a Pats fan!

Kinda like storming the field after beating western Omaha school of technology. I know I'm nitpicking and I get we clinched the playoffs but teams usually don't do that in the regular season. I wish they wouldve saved it for a more meaningful win. Yes i understand its not a big deal and doesnt effect anything going forward, but I just though it was a little tacky. How would you feel if the eagles did something like that?

IT was JG's first division title. Also the team clearly loves their coach. A coach who had been embattled for a couple years here. Romo also led the charge. I do not question that man's leadership.

To me it showed that this team cares about each other and as importantly enjoys being around each other.

Also why can't you have fun in the National Football League?

don't ever let a cheating patriots fan ever talk crap to you. we are the Dallas Cowboys. no organization in the nfl compares to ours. especially those cheap tacky *******s in Boston.

Right I get that. I just think coaches Gatorade baths should be reserved for the playoffs. I'm one that prefers the guys act like they have been there before..

See, .. you like it in certain situations, .. whereas I think it is ALWAYS the dumbest thing to do in any situation.

So everybody is different.

That celebration is dumb to me, but what they were celebrating was very appropriate.

I think it was quite appropriate, in fact was looking for them to do it. This team and staff has had a long long struggle to finally break out + the fact no one expected them to do anything this year. SO FAR we have shocked the Football community, no one saw this coming. Its almost like watching "The Natural", u know thats why Romo wears #9 btw...

Well stated in all regards

When you cheat enough, you expect to win in the regular season. At some point you only get excited about cheating in the playoffs. Otherwise, all that fake emotion just isn't worth it.

Anytime someone starts a thread with "I'm nitpicking" they should stop themselves.

It's a celebration. We won the NFC East. That's worth celebrating.

It's all perspective. If Dallas wins the division again next year, I doubt the Cowboys will celebrate it the way they did this year. But when you've spent several years coming up just short ...

Cowboys only need to concern themselves with the Cowboys, what others think who cares. This team is showing emotions, how some other fan feels about it does not factor in or matter.

No one would call themselves Americas Team yet we did. LOL

If this had been a 4th straight 8-8 season, do you think Jerry would have stayed patient or pulled the trigger on Garrett?

Jones is looking brilliant right now for staying the course. Couldn't have been easy for him - given that he fired Jimmy Johnson after Johnson won 2 straight Super Bowls.

Do not take life's joy's for granted, so celebrate when you can. Life is too short, and we should enjoy our successes. At least for 24 hours.

Fully agreed! Let's move on!!!

I don't know. It's a tough call but I did say a few weeks ago I thought Jones was waiting to see how the season played out before signing him.
He has to know. Plus the staff.

I had no issue with it. You just won the division and it was the first time for that coach.
