I understand your thoughts, it just does not make sense for me...maybe it's the Military mind, never give up the battle. lol.

In another thought, I actually hate thinking like this but I do believe the eagles are going to beat the hell out of these Cowboys, and if I'm wrong I will buy you a brand new Corvette of your choice.


I don't think there is an offense in the league good enough to "beat the hell out of these Cowboys" with this defense. At least not if they are focused and locked in. And as long as Moore doesn't abandon the running game like he did at Philly, Zeke and TP should eat enough to keep the chains moving and put up 2-3 TDs. But overall I just get the sense that this team will bring it when the Eagles come to town. If they come out flat for that one then yeah, time to start planning for the draft because they will prove themselves unworthy of any further support this season. You can't not show up for THAT game.. You just can't. Win or lose you better make it a helluva fight and not lay down like dogs.

I hear you, alligator. The Cowboy have to win that game, they just have to in order to enter the playoffs on a high note.

So long as it's not to the Eagles..

I still maintain that this team lacks the emotional maturity to go into the playoffs on an 8 game win streak. I'd much rather they drop one somewhere along the way to help them refocus. And perhaps more importantly to get the media off their nuts.
I would argue that an awful performance where they eek out a victory like Sunday works just as well to get their focus. I believe every player not named LVE sees something on the film to be embarrassed about.

Be very careful what you wish for if this team is as immature as you say a loss could get them on a bad roll.
A roll that could take them right to one and done in the playoffs.

This team needs to concentrate on film study,. Ball security and generally avoiding shooting themselves in the foot.

We need to get healthy and the coaching staff needs to do everything in its power to create a game plan that inspires confidence in the players something more than go for it on fourth down every time.

Down the stretch this team needs to properly prepare because this will breed the confidence necessary to succeed in the playoffs.

Failure to prepare is preparing to fail

Tell us again how we're not real Cowboys fans if we think Dak isn't a good QB while you hope we lose games......

This opinion is baseless

One loss isn’t going to change anything for the better. Rooting for that is plain dumb.

One good ground game pounding by the Titans, just to keep the defense in check, and let's see what they can do! :flagwave:

If anyone lifts us to the top, it's going to be the D.

I don't know about loser persona.. I just know they've not handled prosperity well. Call it whatever you want.. If they spank these next four opponents and go into the playoffs on a high I will immediately think they're due for a letdown. I have no DESIRE to actually watch the Cowboys lose ANY game.. I am simply musing about what I perceive to be an issue with THIS team. Which is lack of maturity. We can all sit here and say "I want them to be this or that.. " I am simply dealing with who they are.. And who they are tells me that if they win out they will likely not be focused come playoff time. I don't have to like it to acknowledge it.
“They haven’t handled prosperity well so I want them not to handle prosperity well.”

Why don't we just lose out? That should really get them focused for the playoffs.
