And for me it was different because I never lived in Dallas. I grew up in NC where the Deadskins were on TV every week. One of the main reasons I became a Cowboy fan was because of Coach Landry. It was just the way he represented himself. Pure class. And I like Tony but Coach Landry did more for the Cowboys than Tony ever did. He helped build the Cowboy brand.
Yep. The real problem is the extreme emotional attachment people have for individual players. I understand that, as a kid, l was the same. You get older and fortunately that slowly dies away. I enjoy the game and the Team much more now. When its time to move on...its very easy for the oldtimers.
Totally agree. I was in my late 20's when the Cowboys started those SB runs. It's been 20 years. I don't want to waste anther 20. I just want to see us win another. When we played SB XXX I kind of knew this was going to be it. I didn't even enjoy that SB that much. The media mostly talked about the Steelers blowing it rather than the Cowboys winning it. If I knew then that we wouldn't be back again for over 20 years I would have enjoyed it more.
I think my reference was, people like you don't deserve a Super Bowl.
Sure, it's a little longer than 8 games though.
Ok..."fan".
go "wah" a river. all this "you don't feel like i do so you are wrong!" whining crap has run its course.
Most of your comments were all negative about Romo. Then you proclaimed yourself a fan. I just pointed that out.
you new here? and my comments are NOT negative to romo - they're just not saying we should stop the streak we're on to swap "engines" so to speak and that has upset you.
You have Romo FANS hoping Dak will be injured so Romo can have one last hurrah. They would rather lose with Romo having one last opportunity at a ring, rather than win a championship with Dak. There can't be a more bizarre FAN base than this one. We may have struck gold in the 4th round with a special QB and you have some that almost appear to be pulling against him so we can go back to where we've already been with Romo. One FAN claimed if we're going to go deep into playoffs it will be with Romo despite the fact that we've never gone deep into the playoffs with Romo. Romo had the same beast of an OL in 2014 and he had a back leading the entire league in rushing just like Dak has but Romo didn't bring the read option to our offense and the ability to pull the ball down and run. Dak hasn't taken as many sacks as Romo took in 2014 and he hasn't turned the ball over as many times as Romo in 2014 which has given Dak a better TD to turnover ratio.
None of the statements I've seen about Dak have come close to being as ridiculous as some of the statements that have been made about Romo. You have Romo FANS out there tearing Dak's game down claiming we would be undefeated and would have rolled everyone this season if Romo was the QB. Even though Dak's stats are on par with Romo's from the 2014 season with some even being better than Romo's, they claim Dak's not seeing the field very well and is holding us back despite the fact we have the best record in the entire NFL and are currently riding a franchise record tying 8 game winning streak. We're atop all the power rankings but according to some Dak's been a liability.
Some of the FANS on this board have grown up watching Romo and he's the only QB who's started for the team since they've been following the Cowboys. I can understand their devotion to him based on that but for some to think he's better than Brady, Peyton Manning and Aaron Rodgers and would have more championships if he played on the teams they did is going way overboard. Dak has given the franchise new hope and it's hard not to get excited about what he's done so far because you just don't see rookie QBs playing this well. Dak will run into some struggles, it's going to happen and the Romo FANS will jump all over him when it does. They act like Romo can do no wrong when they know that's not true. My feeling on Romo is he had his chances over 10 years as the starter and it's time to move on.
Luck has never been on his side and that was true for Meredith, Morton and Danny White who were all good QBs. Outside Cowboys Nation Romo will best be remembered for his bad plays because many came at the worst possible moments in big games. I always saw him as a poor man's Brett Favre. A lot of great, exciting plays mixed with a lot of boneheaded bad plays that left many scratching their heads. He's a gunslinger who lives and dies by taking chances. It's very difficult to win it all with a QB who has turnover issues. Show me a turnover prone QB and I'll show you a QB who probably doesn't have a SB ring except for Brett Favre and he can thank Drew Bledsoes 4 INT's for that. Romo gave it his best and I'll always have respect for him, he accomplished a lot for an undrafted free agent but it's about winning championships for me and he didn't get it done. It certainly wasn't all his fault but every QBs legacy to some degree is tied to their playoff record.
