Fellow Dallas Cowboys fans;
To all our brethren who are gnashing their teeth because we lost a three point game to a pretty good NY Giants team in the Meadowlands, please take a minute to breathe. Enjoy, don't perseverate on the negative. If we had thought, at the beginning of the season, that our Dallas Cowboys would be 11-2 we would all have been fairly incredulous and giddy. And that is exactly where we are. Let us enjoy the moment. Your Dallas Cowboys won 11 in a row. We had never won 9 in a row in franchise history. What an accomplishment. And with a rookie QB and RB. Wow!!!
Even if we lose in the first round of the playoffs, this has been a very enjoyable season. Please do not mar the season by pointless gnashing of the teeth because our rookie QB threw 2 interceptions in the last game. Jeepers, he is a person, not a robot. And of course we can argue about whether he was responsible for the picks or not.
Shame on Jerry Jones for instigating the current unrest at QB with talk about when Tony gets back onto the field. The man cannot help himself, he is a motor mouth of a marketing approach that cares not how the team is viewed, as long as it is center stage and spoken about. Jerry is an endless stream of consciousness that proves over and over again that he really does not know much about football. He is no Jimmy Johnson, Bill Parcells, Bill Belicheck. He is a loud, crass, classless rich guy.
I wonder what this talent laden team would do with a real coach, gm combination. Imagine, Belicheck instead of Ginger!!
But I am regressing into that pit of what ifs and could have beens. Your Dallas Cowboys have the best record in the NFL. They have an unbelievably young and talented offense. Their D coordinator has done an incredible job of getting more out of less than any coach in recent memory. The defense has played smart, hard nosed, fundamentally sound and passionate football. Kudos to them and especially by boy, Sean Lee a fellow Penn State alum who has been outstanding. It reminds me of a quote attributed to Bear Bryant when speaking of another Cowboys great LB, Leroy Jordan. While he was at Alabama, Bryant said, "if the runner stays between the sidelines, Leroy will get 'em". We can say the same about Lee. He has been everywhere the ball is and he has stopped them cold. 22 tackles last week alone.
Much to be thankful for. Great team, great record, great fun to watch. Cowboys are back in the mix. More than we could have hoped for. Please enjoy the moment. It has been a very long time coming!!
