Hope for the Best, Expect the Worst

[Jumbo075]

There is nothing wrong with getting your hopes up for this coming playoff experience. The Cowboys team is as talented as any other team, and has the ability to win it all.

Given the History, and the way the Cowboys ended the season, lowering expectations is also warranted. Low expectations will limit potential disappointment, and then you can enjoy the games for what they are rather than lament what they aren’t.

Let’s go Cowboys!

Agree with everything except us being as talented as the other teams. Philly and SF have championship caliber rosters…we do not.

My expectations aren’t very high considering the injuries we’re looking at and playing on the road.

That being said I’ll stay hopeful.

Meh, we’ve lost Steele, Brown, and Lewis. Everyone else should be back this week Hankins, and LVE for sure.

 

[Manster_Mash]

Our talent is well below that of Philly and SF, not to mention almost all the AFC playoff teams.

True…but LVE and Hanks are coming off of injury. Are they going to be 100% and be in complete football shape?

Stopped reading at "as talented as any other team, and has the ability to win it all."

Are they very good to begin with?

I used to tell my employee come raise time, expect nothing and hopefully you will be pleasantly surprised.

Its the same way I view the Cowboys. I expect them to lose to TB and I will be elated if they win.

For those incapable of handing disappointment. lol People will say they have low expectation yet are the loudest complainers here. What was the expectation many had before the season? not even making the playoffs. I learned a long time ago in sports whether as a participant or as a viewer anytime you compete the risk of losing is there you best learn how to deal with both winning and losing.

The SHAME of this entire situation….

Of the top two NFC teams, one has lost their top two QBs and is depending on a 7th round rookie, and the other has a significant injury.

The team we are playing has 45 year old QB. I don’t care what his name is.

Has there EVER been a weaker NFC?

....my vision of this game, is coming down to FG. Good thing we have Maher.

This. Not to mention coaching weaknesses/concerns as well.

A true definition of balance. Hope for the best. Be prepared for the Cowboys recent history. And the truth is, the NFC is completely wide open. All of the NFC playoff teams have some holes just like Dallas. Opportunity is there for the taking.

They help a lot against the run. LVE has also been our best LBr this year, so yea, we need him.

LVE has acted like he could have gone last week from the interview I saw. Hankins said he was good to go as well.

Good…if they’re healthy will help the run D.

 

[MoistMayonnaise]

This has been my Modis operandi for a decade. Go Cowboys, in most likely their last game of the season.

Another vision.
Anger is the holder.
He pulls a Tony Romo at the end.
Bucs win 33-31.


Just messin' with you.
8th time is the charm vs. Brady.
1st road playoff win in the 21st century.
