Congrats on the big win! It was just a week ago that a lot of us were ready to move on from this team. I hope you all feel the same way. One win shouldn't make you happy. What good is it that we played well today, and go out Thursday and stink up the place again!

If you're mad stay mad, until we show some consistency. It's good that we beat a good team, so nobody can say oh you beat a crappy team.

Agreed but this was nice! Enjoy it!

Oh I'm mad! Still mad, no, pizzed off, about the GB game. Hope this team is and stays mad and motivated about the pile of bovine scat they left up there at Lambeau.

What could have been . . . we could be controlling our own destiny.

The GB game is what created this game. Now maybe they understand the mind set now.

knowing them they will get cocky

What do you mean by “pull you in?”

Did you root for the Cowboys while watching the game on tv today? And then after the big win come here on CowboysZone to talk about it?

What I mean by pulling you in, is getting fans to believe they’re a championship contender after blowing a 14 point lead to a bad team the week earlier, which caused a lot of fans to give up on them. Of course I root for the team I wouldn’t have over 45,000 messages here if I didn’t. :rolleyes: It’s pretty funny that you can’t tell who roots for the team here. It takes a lot of passion for a fan to post as often as I do.

Looking 4 days from now, if the. Cowboys defense remembers that collapsing the pocket in the 2nd half of the last Giants game,took away the biggest gains that the Giants were making, all should go well

Jones was repeatedly running up the gut and gaining first downs until the 2nd half when they took that away. If the offense plays the way that it did today, the Boys should handle their business again.

we’ve got 4 more days to enjoy this solid win, though.

Sound advice.....but you know many aren't taking the advice.......and reading the board last week, some were throwing things. You've advised. Now the Thanksgiving heck awaits. Hopeful the team can continue to be consistent and not too cocky......Don't hang on the Skip Bayless talk this morning. Good win yesterday.....G-Men in front of the 'Boys.....and the mantr any give Sunday is now ......any given Thursday.

No, be happy.

Dallas wasn't going to be a 17-0 team. Anyone who thought that was nuts. If Dallas ends up 12-5 or 13-4, it was a great season. Those 4 or 5 losses will be painful but expected.

I will say this: People's overreaction to the defense was shocking. This is the NFL in 2022. The cards are stacked against defenses in many ways so of course you are going to have bad weeks. If you go back to the GB game for example, literally 2 or 3 plays were the difference between giving up 31 in overtime versus a 14 point good performance.

Dallas is a much better team than I expected. The defense is the best its been in a loooooong time. The O line is great again. This is a contender.

Personally, I think that the primary person who can stop the Dallas Cowboys is Kellen Moore.

I would say that was a good win. Dallas learned that when you get that ball inside the 5 yard line run it. Had they stayed with the run they would of beat GB. They also learned it's better to manage Parsons early on and turn him loose later. He went crazy too soon against GB and was worn out and limping at the end when needed. Finally Prescott drive the bus well! Congrats Dak your learning.

I'm going to enjoy it. If the Cowboys played like that most weeks I don't think there would be any complaining. But we know it won't last. Have to beat the Giants.

It is good advice, but the OP doesn't take his own advice after a loss. You can't cry the sky is falling, the qb is trash, etc after a loss, then come on here and tell people to calm down after a win. It's completely hypocritical.

Hell with that, you guys come in here rip the Cowboys after a loss yet Dallas win and we are supposed to not get too happy? lol screw that, you can be as negative as you like not me. Great win period, does not mean we are super bowl bound but it was a big win

If that's the new norm I'll definitely take it.
Lean on run game and TOP philosophy on offense in order to keep your defense rested and at their best.
Now, IF they could just be CONSISTENT to sticking with this approach they may be onto something.

Like... playoff wins even, lol

Sorry Coogie, but I must disagree, grab some happiness every time it”s available. It has not been in plentiful supply anywhere for awhile now.

This game makes letting go of that Packers game a lot easier.

And at least for this week, the Great Dakbate should subside and that should make all of us happy.

It was nice to see Prescot finally show up in a meaningful game. One thing he has to work on and it's locating the other TEs when they are running multiple TEs on the field. Those other two TEs did a dam good job when Schultz and Prescot were hurt. But since Prescot's return those other two fellas aren't seeing too many passes their way.

Yeah, stay mad. Because it really helps things for everyone when your anger has zero impact on the team.
