Not for nothing, but this win sort of reminds me of the contestants on American Idol. They're all happy as pigs in slop when they move onto the next round ... but in the end, only ONE person is standing.

Reminds me of that Japanese movie where the HS students are kidnapped and sent to a deserted island, and given orders to kill each other. Only the last person alive will leave the island and go home.

Anyway, we were 4-4 before this win. That's close to be out of it. 2-3 more losses, and we're on the outside looking in.

We simply beat up on a lousy 1-8 team.

Did this win simply push off the inevitable? Missing the playoffs again? Are we happy like the Idol contestants to be able to move to the next round? Is the judges' axe ready to fall next time around?

If we lose to Indy, we'll be on the edge of elimination.

Hell Eddie, we've been up one week #@$ed the next, all season.

But at least the opportunity to feel some temporary relief presented itself today.. yes AZ is a 'bad' team, but as you yourself clearly pointed out, their strategy was to force a young qb to throw today, and minus one of his vet weapons.

They did, and it jumped up and bit them in the backside.

That's one more step TR needs, and the team needs, to reach nirvana...no matter how far away it is, and how near the abyss still is.

Now a better team could have used that strategy and suceeded...but by the time that D crosses TR's path, he might just be ready for it. It's flat out thrilling how Romo is, with a full playbook, with no attention to WHO his receivers are, not allowing opposing DCs to make it about 'him'.

Or maybe I'm just so used to being limited by Bledsoe, I get all weepy over a QB who doesn't present as many liabilities as assets. ;)

I think I'm just happy NOT to have Bledsoe or Testaverde back there. At least Romo gives up a hope for the future, or at least an answer to a question. We simply can't go on with re-tread 35+ year old QB's.

I want to see Romo outshine Peyton next week. What a thrill that would be. I don't want to see a shootout. I want to see Peyton getting chased and harrassed all day, while Romo plays with an Aikman-esque zeal.

That would be sweet. A win, would be sweeter. :)

I'VE BEEN RIGHT MORE THAN WRONG WHICH I NEVER SEEM TO GET CREDIT FOR BUT...IN THIS CASE I GAVE UP ON THE TEAM IN WEEK 9 AGAINST A JOKE OF A CLUB....

SOME OF YOU AGREED - AND YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE...BUT REGARDLESS...IT WAS THE WRONG THING TO DO....

DOES THIS MEAN I'LL NEVER SAY SOMETHING LIKE THIS AGAIN...PROBABLY.

BAD POST BY MYSELF...I JOINED THE WORLD OF COWBOY HATERS IN CRAPPING ON US RATHER THAN RALLYING BEHIND US...I DON'T WHY , BUT SOMETIMES I TEND TO DO THAT :bang2:


THis is very much the kinda thing that people give TO crap for!! WE DONT CARE ABOUT YOU!! You should not make a thread about yourself this is a place to discuss the dallas cowboys not to discuss you and your feelings this week.

Me neither.

At the very least I want to see him brain fart the way the Pats always used to make him..before last week.
Panic him into a few critical errors.

But Manning is smart - he can see what any D is up to...think Bill and Zim can cook something special up for him?

Dunno, but please don't start a thread about it.

In fairness to TNB, I baited him into the thread.

I know, I saw it...but I mistakenly gave him too much credit and thought he'd refuse to bite.


Should have realized the overwhelming temptation of chest-thumping "I'm wrong" is as powerful as "I'm right". :lmao2:

you mods are cruel

Hmm...


Cruel

Poster named summerisfunner

Ok this is the part of the thread where you write a lyric to a song and it sticks in someones head and they get annoyed.

Hot summer streets
And the pavements are burning
I sit around
Trying to smile
But the air is so heavy and dry
Strange voices are saying
What did they say
Things I can't understand
It's too close for comfort
This heat has got right out of hand

(chorus x 2)
It's a cruel, cruel summer
Leaving me here on my own
It's a cruel, cruel summer
Now you've gone

Cruel Summer - bananarama
