If the Cowboys turned things around in 2024, would you believe?

Would it cause you to believe that they will finish out strong, or would you not be fooled by the turn around? Please give your thoughts

No. They could go 17-0 in the regular season and I would be convinced that they would choke out of the first playoff game.

Define turn around.

Turn around and make the playoffs, or win the division. What is to be fooled by then?
Only the naysayers will be fooled like they have been the past three 12-5 season.

However, no one should be fooled come playoffs. They team needs to turn that debacle around.

They are 3-3, and most had us at 3-3 or 2-4, some at 4-2. A long way to go, anything can and will happen.
The thing is, the way we lost those 3 games, does not give fans any hope going forward. And the struggled to win 2 games. and 1 win came against a 1-5 team.

If / when they get healthy, hopefully after this bye week. Though they still will not be 100%. But if they can get it going, they could get a WC in a weak NFC. Or so far looks to be weak.

History shows that would happen.

If they make a run to the conference title, I'll change my stance. Otherwise, nah, no way.

How can they “turn it around” with Bland Parsons and Lawrence in the blue tent and the offense not creative with MM calling plays . A turn around seems far fetched . With Philly and a rejuvenated Commanders a WC even seems far reaching .

Would love to see it start against SF next week .

A bunch of players will have to overachieve big-time and I don't see that happening........

No. You quite simply will not make any noise in the playoffs w/ a crapp DLine and backups and street FA's playing DT and no starting RBs on the roster.

Sucks that we have to feel this way!

Turn around like beat some tough teams starting with the 49ers, and playing CONSISTENT football on both sides of the ball.

I am trying to be realistic this year. I just do not see how they turn things around given their schedule and how bad they have been playing. I just do not think they have the players to turn it around.

Their next game against SF should be interesting. I can see them coming out on fire after all the criticism they faced after the Detroit fiasco. I can see a close game with teh 49ers wining something like 24-20. Only because the 49ers have not been playing well either, and they have their own injuries. But I can also see the 49ers beating the Cowboys handily something like 33-13.

I am most curious about Micah Parsons, if he returns for this game. I want to see what kind of energy he plays with, if the layoff inspired him at all. I am hoping sitting on the sidelines has lit a fire in him and cause him to mature as a player and a leader. We'll see.

Win two playoff games in a row and call me convinced … until then no.

Every member of this board has a better chance of winning the lottery 5 times than this happening.

 

[Flamma]

Something else is wrong with this team this year. No way should we have lost 47-9 to the Lions. At home no less. In hindsight, I can say the same about the Saints. I think it was just us and Carolina they looked great against. How do you turn this around?

 

[TequilaCowboy]

Jerry and his team aren’t gonna make believers out of us until they can at least win a couple of games in the playoffs. Even a WC win is a humongous accomplishment nowadays. The bar is lower than a snake’s belly.

Philly is about as scary as us. They can’t score either.

Their QB is not good. This is another example of wasted talented OL and WRs on a QB that won’t get it done. The SB performance was an outlier, as he got lucky Purdy got hurt and the refs still were bailing them out in the NFC conference finals. The only difference is their FO has shown an ability to make tough decisions.

 

[charron]

I'll believe in this team when they start winning playoff games.

Dallas is just bad. They gave no direction and are like a rudderless ship. This is more than exemplified by their coaching staff, as well as them being on 1 year deals. The only positive is special teams.

Dallas is basically right now on the path of becoming the Commanders the last couple of years, the only difference being the guy that is looking worse than Sam Howell now that his supporting cast is playing like them is getting paid 250 million dollars.

That’s the biggest issue with this team. There is no direction which the team is turning.

Like Denver? Bad offense, tremendous defense?

Like Washington? Outstanding offense, bad defense.

This team does nothing good. They don’t stop the run, they cannot stop the pass. They don’t force punts. They are worst in the league running the ball. The passing game is nearly non existent.

That is the biggest issue of this team right now. They do nothing well.
