Isn't it great knowing the Cowboys are for real?

Sorry but I've seen this before. I've seen these posts before. Don't care what stats are thrown out. It's always ended in disappointment. Cowboys aren't for real until they show something in the playoffs. Wouldn't matter if they went 16-0 in the reg season and broke a million reg season records.
How about 17-0?
That would be a record of some sort.

Tomlin owes his entre career to Big Ben.
The reat Billy owes his career to Brady. (let me know what Billys record is as a HC without Brady?) Oh, I just did some quick math, it appears the "reatest to ever coach," is 71-79 without Brady.
Can’t figure out if you’re disagreeing with me or not.

Just restating what Ive always said. All coaches are great only if they have a great qb. Without a great qb, coaches are nothing.
Look around the league... wasnt Rivera supposed to be a fantastic coach? I know many people in here wanted him.... well, look at him, he sucks.
Panthers coach just got whacked... he has some of the worst qb play in the league. Bills coach is all of the sudden great..... yep. Its nothing new for me to do this.... lol

Carrol was great with that great D.... hows he been doing? Players win and players lose, no matter who the coach is.

Everyone called Switzer an idiot, yet he won a SB.

I get a kick at some of our fan base and media how our offense sucks. When Dak comes back we will easily score 24 to 30 points a game book it!!!

I do not disagree with this. The offense has played extremely conservative.... JUST LIKE IN 2016 WHEN DAK TOOK OVER.

We have a great defense, as some crazy coach once said, you play to win the game. He didnt say anything about playing just to score points.

Fair enough. I get your point and agree. Most coaches are good to great at this level and of course having that QB makes you all that much smarter lol….It’s crazy how much dumber BB is without Brady right?

In Garrett’s case, IMO anyway, it was about a guy who shouldn’t have been a HC but got to hang around for a decade, and Romo was a big part of disguising that.

Honestly, the caliber of some of the players that came through here during his tenure, only to be wasted on a guy that was set in his old time ways while the game was evolving around him is quite shameful. Took Jerry a while to notice the schemes that were being generated by younger minds and that’s why Moore was added.

Garrett was here so Jerry could control everything the way he wanted to. Romo made it possible for as long as it went on for.

I don't see what you see. Prescott managed just three points in the first game. Cooper Rush has repeatedly driven the Cowboys down the field in every game since taking over, and put points on the board in every game.
You're wanting to judge/condemn a guy who came off the bench and led the Cowboys to 4 straight wins as if he had been playing for several years, yet you defend the guy who was supposed to be our franchise quarterback but choked in the playoffs just last season and put up 3 points in the opening night of this season.
Prescott has a history of choking in big games, while Rush has a history-albeit short- of winning.
You might want to adjust the way you're seeing things.
One freaking game, at the beginning of the season. That’s what you’re hung up on. Mahomes is the guy that shot in the playoffs last season LMAO your hero

What QB deal?

I don't want to speak for JVB, but it might be alluding to the Cowboys facing an uphill challenge to win a championship with any of their current QBs.

Dak doesn't look the same vs top teams, and anyone who thinks Dallas can Cooper Rush their way to a title is dreaming. Enjoy the run while it lasts.

cmon, you do know Jerry can control as much or little as he wants to, no matter who the coach is.

Seems like this is said every season. Get back to me a week before the Super Bowl is played. Then we'll talk.

I dunna want to believe we are for real yet.
Call me superstitious.
Call me irresponsible.
Call me deeply lin love with this evolving and intriguing D.
And, lads of the trinity lowlands and the withering Texas entrails, the tip of the iceberg has not been imagined!
So many personnel and possibilities!
Spencer, Lillith, the tastefully appointed room is spinning!

No longer are offensive drives ending regularly on "three-and-outs".
It's awesome- and even the haters should admit that!

Highest scoring team in 2021, as well as yards, does not equate to 3 and outs.

And yes you Dak haters should admit, he will get get the offense rolling once he returns.
Along with this defense, yeah look for less 3 and outs.

I freely admit Dak will put up big stats when he returns. He will beat sub .500 teams, and the good teams he will put up great stats against when they have pulled far enough ahead that they are playing loose defense.
But the real winning will be over if Dak goes back as starter. He'll beat easy teams, but not good teams. Period.

Here is a fact...MOST QB's, beat up on sub .500 teams.
But hey, it is not in your narrative to apply that to others, only Dak.
Period.

I remember when ya'll were saying this last year.

When ya'll gonna learn that this team isn't "for real" until they do something in the post season?

How many times must you fall for a few regular season wins?

Those regular season wins is what gets you to the playoffs. You do understand that do you not?
