I am appalled by this board sometimes...

What kind of a 'realist' requires this year's Dallas Cowboys to win the Superbowl for their happiness? That seems most 'unrealistic' given the circumstances this year...

Going into this season, my goal for the team was 11 wins, the NFC East title, and an appearance in the NFC Championship game... I thought those were all achievable goals... obviously, at this point they're somewhat ahead of that point, so I'm allowing myself to hope for a Super Bowl appearance...

And I DREAM of a Super Bowl WIN, but looking at the Pats' play, in all honesty I'm already chalking up the Lombardi Trophy for them this year... it seems to me that only injury can derail that train...

Not to mention that good QB's always find a way to win in the closing moments of games. Campbell will either put it on the carpet or throw it to the other guy when it gets down to cruch time... just like he did in the last two weeks in his "good" games.

If Campbell holds it together yesterday late... his team probably wins. He didn't, although he did complete a lot of passes against a defense that was letting him throw underneath for the last 10 min. of the game.

If that's what the Skins want out of their QB... just to move against a prevent and then fold under the pressure of the red zone... then I'm happy for them.

I couldn't agree with you more, **...

This is almost exactly my progression as well.

I'm focused on home field throughout the playoffs and getting to the Superbowl. Going 14-2 will get us the homefield and, as surprising as this would have sounded in the past, is very doable. It would be a heaping layer of icing on the top to achieve best Cowboy regular season record ever.

I just logged on to see some high fiving about beating the most hated of our rivals and all I see is threads about how bad Roy was in coverage, The bad play by the Defense, the offensive play calling.

Man o man, I posted in a recent thread leading up to this game that this would be a nail biter and how important it was not to look past the skins, even though they are a much lesser talented team than we are.

It's always like this with them. Always. This is our division rival. They know us better than most teams. They have been studying us the whole year to get to this game.

You want to take shots at the team but we are winning big, we are winning the close ones and we are coming from behind. This team has it's weaknesses but so far we have been able to overcome them.

Instead of acting like the sky is falling if we don't do this or don't do that, we should be happy as pigs in mud that we are now 9-1 and taking care of our division.

Be proud and be positive. We have a great team and a great chance at winning it all.

:hammer:


I'm right there with ya.


*Note: We need a high five smilie.

LOL! You post this in a 4 day old thread? In light of Hos's thread I would think it is very appropriate.

His post is no more inappropriate than those who cry about everything even when we are 10-1.

If the Crybabies want free reign to complain ..... then everyone else should have free reign to call them on it.

We can be 10-1 and still have flaws.

And sometimes a team is only as strong as it's weakest link.

Not a lot of flaws on this team. Penalties and SS coverage are up there. Hamlins play has elevated the unit from last year. Phillips defense is also causing a lot more turnovers.

There will always be an element that is not happy.

To "call them on it"? LOL Is that what you call what it is you do? LOL

In other words, nobody can post an opinion that disagrees with yours without being labeled a "crybaby"?

Let's try a little expirement. For the next week, instead of whining and crying (or suggesting someone eat a bullet) when someone posts an opinion that you disagree with just simply post a thoughtful and RESPECTFUL reply as to why you disagree and leave it at that.

Let's try that for a week instead of making it your mission to embark on personal attacks and thread hijacking.

In other words, quit acting like a whiney little crybaby who has to have thing his way every time.

PS, I know you did not make the eating a bullet comment and this post is directed at not only you but the "others" who feel it is thier duty to squash any ideas that they personally do not agree with.

Uhmmmmmm.......

Becuase "they" are criticising the team and you are criticising the poster.

This place is here to discuss the team, not the posters.

It's really quite simple.

Uhmmmmmmm I defend my favorite team from Trolls ..... whether they are foreign or domestic.

I do not criticize people who make a negative comment here and their .... but when one of the clowns have most of their post complaining about Roy or T.O. or our pass rush, or our kickoffs .... even after a big win ..... then they should expect it .... especially when they are doing it just to cause forum fights.

Well there it is.

Your mission statement for all to see.

Thou shall not post any negative thoughts on the Dallas Cowboys without incurring the wrath of zrinKILL.

LOL

I wonder, do the mods see that as a good attitude for a mega-poster on a DISCUSSION forum to have?

I have already done it, many times .... but the Clowns like Edunce and Stsinaz will always have an agenda they are trying to push.

I think you are taking it a little to seriously ...... guilty perhaps?
