Let's not get Too Happy

[Motorola]

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.

The Cowboys did both last week leading up to Sunday's victory.

Yup that's what this board and fans do most, stay MAD and find sour in everything

I don't know, the fans have been stressed for awhile, let them rejoice.

As a lifelong Cowboys fan I never get too happy. Just take it one week at a time and enjoy the good times while I can. I know heartache lurks around the corner so I won’t be shocked when it shows up.

Dude, I'm as critical as they come regarding mediocrity and "the big picture". But I have to disagree here. We literally went out and smoked a team that we wouldn't have expected to beat even IF we had beaten Green Bay. And yeah, maybe it's just "the kind of thing the Cowboys would do" in losing to a last place team before rebounding when nobody expects it. But there is no way ANY fan shouldn't be sticking their chest out today. This was the best win in years. How many times in recent memory have we went out and so thoroughly dominated a very good team in every possible way? And Dak went out and did what I've said he just doesn't do, and that's beat a good team. Well, all the boxes were checked. What happens on Thanksgiving is what happens then. Yesterday, we could have beaten ANY challenger.

It's hilarious how so many fans don't seem to know their place.
It is not for us to be concerned, mad, etc. We have zero affect on the team.
And you should be okay with that. Free to choose wherever your alliance goes.

I live an hour from FedEx Field, one of Dallas' many other "home" stadiums.
The fans of that other team that plays there get excited over preseason performances.
It's annoying! So, as for this lifetime Cowboys fan, I'll be enjoying this win right
up to kickoff on Turkey Day!
