Goodness people!
I will say again, for the umpteenth time,
What WE AS FANS focus on has NOTHING TO DO with Dallas' performance this Thursday vs. Washington. Yes, I get it. My alma matter's (Penn State) head coach James Franklin is always about the next opponent, and nothing more. He even tweets it out.
MARYLAND
MARYLAND

Okay, so for Garrett and the Cowboys, it's all about
WASHINGTON
WASHINGTON
WASHINGTON
I get that. But there's nothing wrong with us fans looking past our next opponent and SPECULATING about the pending matchup with the Saints in 10 days. Unless of course y'all feel we're going to jinx the team and cause them to lose on Thanksgiving, because we FANS are "looking past" Washington.
What does "our" focus have anything to do with this team and their performance?? You know, I could never understand this mentality. "Can we just get past Washington first." First of all, WE aren't playing Washington. We're WATCHING Dallas vs. Washington. We're not "looking past" anyone. So sue me for penciling a W in for Thursday. Call me guilty, but I like our chances on Thanksgiving.
I still would like to know how fans "looking ahead" on a message board would somehow alter the results of a game. That's rather superstitious to say the least. That's like admitting players and coaches read these threads (yeah right) and as a result would also look past the next opponent. Sure..
Anyway, after the Cowboys WIN on Thursday, we'll go ahead and re-visit this thread for those fans who aren't ready right now, who "just can't look ahead" in discussing an upcoming matchup until the next game is played. That's fine, I'll be here.
