I should have stopped looking while I was ahead

Would photoshopping CowboysZone's default Rowdy avatar with fangs make the mascot look more or less sinister?

I say less sinister...

He'd look like a cousin of Sesame Street's "Count", whatever his name is.

Why can't we be contenders?

Qb's and non qb's are getting injured all over the league.

The cowboys put up 30+ points yesterday, and it didn't even look that smooth. What if Dalton and these really good skill positions figure it out in the next 6 games? What if they figure out how to put 30+ on any defense. What if they stay balanced with the run and pass, and start controlling the clock.

Special teams is starting to play well. The defense has been making improvements.

You don't pass on playoff runs, no matter how small you think the chances are

With posts like that, you are just begging for the Gods of the board to smite you with lightning bolts from the God only suite of Mount Cowboy. Good luck

I wish I could permanently deport Rowdy TO Sesame Street...

Nope, I was taking my nap. The highlights showed him in and I mentioned it. I never suggested anything else. The Gods of the message board graced me with an answer. Puny Gods.

It’s all good Vlad. You were off on a couple of things in your post and a few people on here mentioned it (some discourteously), that’s all. No need to impale them.

The Gods know we’ve all been wrong in here before.

And the Vikes aren’t as bad as their record indicates. Their offense is legit and that run game might be the best in the league. The Dallas defense had to play pretty well to win that game. However, the Minnesota defense isn’t what it used to be, so I’d take the Cowboys offensive production with that grain of salt.

And I forgot that you nap while the sun is up. My bad.

Smiting is dangerous. Once someone starts they become drunk with power! You think "Oh yeah! I can smite anybody!" Then you try smiting your wife and she backhands the spit out of your mouth.

Yeah. Smiting is dangerous.

Vlad Dracula or Vlad the Impaler. That's my name and that's what I do for a hobby. Thank you for the kind words.

Watching the highlights because I really didn't see any point in wasting game time nap time, I thought the Dallas O looked like a pro team both rushing and passing. I tallied up the o-line and noticed that Martin was at RG and Steele was at RT. Then, McGovern was at RG and Martin had been moved out to RT, which stayed that way, for most of the game. This combination seemed to be working with Elliot and Pollard making some nice runs.
Then I fell into the optimistic trap again. Maybe, they found the right OL combo, the rushes were coming, Dalton was throwing darts, and the division standings were still uggggggly. Then I got greedy and looked up the Vikings record. Dallas, at 2-7, had just beat a team that went into the game standing at 3-6. A team, that defensively, leaked, at a rate slightly less then the Cowboys Titanic. Still, a win is a win and the division is still ugggggly.
looking ahead, the Cowboys have 6 games left. This part of the schedule is so weak and weaker still with the unfortunate injury to Joe Burrow, that, realistically, the Cowboys could go 5-1 and win the division.
Just when you think you have gotten out, yada, yada, yada.

You lost me when you said you didn't bother watching the game. Why would you even bother commenting??? Go take another nap.

 

[Ranching]

when did steele play right tackle yesterday?

Maybe he dreamed it during his nap! Lol

It's Dracula. Let it go.

 

[DasTex]

The Vikings had won 3 games in a row
@GB
Det
@Bears

They had lost to Tenn by 1, Sea by 1 earlier in the year as well.

Not elite, but they haven't been trash as the OP is saying.

Because I can. Does that answer your question?

Pretty typical answer for a wannabe fan. Go back to sleep!

 

[Creeper]

The Cowboys have still given up more points than any team in the league. They have even given up more than the Jets. The way they allow points to be scored, there are no many teams who will not be in the game against Dallas.

If you had spent just a little time reading the thread, you would see that Steele, for whatever reason and for however brief of a period did enter the game. I noticed him during the highlights and just made the observation that he was in and then noted, that for the bulk of the game, McGovern and Martin were in. I never suggested he played a little or a lot just he was there. The Gods of Mount Cowboy made a big deal about it until they realize he had been in.

 

[blueblood70]

He didn’t and the Vikings were 4-5 before the game yesterday. OP didn’t do his research.

on a 3 game win streak and were hot as they say..so throw the records out IMO we beat a good team on the road with our backup qb and a lot of backups on the OL, missing Diggs etc

thats perspective..

OP doesnt watch the game and wants to be a critic..like looking over movie reviews and the trailer, then saying it stunk without watching ..lol..

I'm not a wannabe. I am now a casual fan, who chooses to avoid another broken heart. I'm a multiple broken hearted fan, who has learned, that the Jones's empire will break your heart over and over like they have done for the last 25 years or so.

Exactly, but why watch the trailer? The score, the highlights, the stats, and the standings are readily available and rather quickly. Why waste hours watching Washington destroy Dallas, 25-3, Philly rip them, 23-9, or Kyler Murray embarrass Dallas, in Dallas, 38-10, and then twist the knife by nearly outrushing the entire Dallas backfield?
I bet I enjoyed my time better than you did.
