80% of this team has been 8-8 for the past 3 years. Dez, Demarco, Fred, Tyron, Martin, etc. etc. etc.

We're 10-4 with 2 games to go.

Witten wants to win, we all know Tony wants to win.

I think the taste of playoff "blood" is going around, and I think we soundly win the next 2 games purely off of desire. I think you're going to see some of these players find another gear for playing at that next level.

They're close. #FinishtheFight

I think as long as the Cowboys stayed focused on the game at hand as they have and not get caught peeking down the road they will be fine. Cowboys know where they want to go but to get there you deal with the here and now

One game at a time, play with a sense of urgency and I believe they can win out. Im excited to see how this all shakes out, what more could you ask for as a fan at this point.

This team can finish. Something this team hasn't been able to do save for a tiny bit in 2007.

I'm psyched to see these last two games. Hopefully Philly gives us the division and this team handles business Sunday. Would make a great early Christmas present I'd say..

Mistake free football. The talent is there.

This team has seems to have been able to not shoot shoot itself in the foot this season.

I think this is the most motivational thread I've read in a while. This Cowboys team is starting to build a swarm of intensity to make it to the playoffs. They have been the metronome of mediocrity for well over a decade, and they are all tired of it. They have demonstrated to themselves that can finish, they can thrive in the midst of adversity, they've beaten last years Super Bowl champs, who had the momentum early in the game. They might have more "want to" than any other playoff contending team.

Well I'll tell you why we win this week at least. IT MUST COME DOWN TO THE LAST WEEK WITH THIS TEAM. Wouldn't be right otherwise. This is an afc team that is talented but doesn't have a BURNING FIRE to beat us at all costs. We win here.... and all the drama and stage will be set for next week.

Love the positive slant.

Just some minor trivia, nowhere near 80% of this team has been here the past three 8-8 seasons....and certainly not Fred or Martin :)

It may even be the opposite. 80% of this team has NOT seen three straight 8-8 seasons.

Thats not what I meant...though I poorly worded it.

~80% of this team, all they have known is 8-8. Very few remain from when we went 13-3, for example. Most dont know a winning season or playing after week 16.

Nope, Eagles lose this week. All their focus is on OUR game, they are going on the road, on a short week, and playing a division rival after playing the two most physical teams in the NFC, us and the Seahawks. They are going to get ambushed.

the mold of this team isnt a loser/average mentality. they've proven it so many times this year. our losses were because the quarterback was banged up, or out.

ugh, should be 12-2 right now.

I would love for you to be correct but I can't even get excited. All 3 of their phases are pretty poorous including the QB. The skins can only muter up a solid performance for us. Plus, the iggles losing on Saturday would make everything far too easy. I'm telling you. Last week. Division opponent. Everything on the line.

Philly isn't "giving" us the division, they went into the Linc and took it last Sunday night.
