Giants had a huge getcha your popcorn ready sign..

If we are a joke at 13-4 what are the 8-8 Eagles?

More of a joke

in the NFC. since 1990.
It's happened many times before that and in the AFC post-1990

Look at the 1976 Cowboys, 1987 49ers, 1996 Broncos and 2005 Colts as evidence that losing in the divisional playoffs does not spell doom and gloom for the next year.

And didn't each one of those teams win the Super Bowl the year after?

Hhhmmm. Bodes well for us don't you think?

 

[theebs]

How many poor games are you allowed before you become a joke. Does 5 in a row not get the job done?

we didnt play poorly in carolina and we didnt play poorly in detroit.

We played poorly against philly and washington though.

I dont think anything that happened in december affected tonights game though. I just think this team lacked fundamentals in the game. Alot of simple things were not accomplished tonight, stuff this team did in there sleep all year.

I have no idea what caused it. they were ready to play, but they allowed themselves to make mistakes in the second half. I think it is hard to get a handle on.

A joke sitting home like us...

Ouch!

And with a higher draft position.

That's why I'm not sitting in the bathtub slitting my wrists.

See... we will get 100 responses as to how we aren't pro coaches...

When the day ends, we will have a win record in the playoffs that equals Wade Phillips...

We should have been ready to play... we weren't...

Really it has be a reacuuring theme all year. How many times did Dallas allow the opponents to score going into half time? Just this one time before they ven kicked off I looked at my wife and said this last 53 seconds is going to come back and bite them. I was hoping Barber was going to get stuffed 1 more time before putting it in. I knew 53 was to much.......

Heck, we have a win record in the playoffs equal to that of Parcells and Phillips!

What do the Eagles have to do with anything? They didnt get HFA only to become the first team to not win a playoff game in doing so.

No one is slitting their wrists on next year already. We will be trying to stitch up the wrists from this year for at least another 3 months.

we aren't the first team not to win a playoff game with home field. We are just the first NFC team since 1990 to do so. The Colts, Chargers and yes even the Cowboys have had that misery before.

That's the whole point... we weren't ready...

As poorly as we played, we had a chance to win this game...

I think that is the issue with Cowboy fans...

Who cares? The Giants will be out next week. The script for the SB doesn't call for them.

Actually... I care...

We should have won this game by 14... we weren't ready...

I'm not talking about the game. I'm talking about the popcorn sign and the Giants' players reactions.

 

[TheCount]

I can't wait till we play these guys next year.

Yeah, maybe we'll beat them two more times only to lose to them in the playoffs again.

That last thing I want the Cowboys to turn into is the Commanders, who think games against division rivals are the Superbowl.

 

[Concord]

Ouch!

And with a higher draft position.

Double OUCH!

Ooookayyyy. There's a difference to looking forward to a game with a rival and having that game be our sole reason for existence.

No reason for extremist viewpoints.
