There was a time that I would be screaming and throwing empty beer cans at the TV when the Cowboys were playing this bad. The whole neighborhood would know the Cowboys were losing. Not anymore, I just mutter to myself W-T-H in disbelief.

I guess I'm just sick and tired of the BS year after year. Nothing will change, ever.

It’s just a dysfunctional organization ran by idiots. It’s the same thing over and over. They did nothing to improve the team this offseason except kill salary cap. What does anyone expect?

Look it still hurts I just get over it quicker than I used to let this linger from one game into the next now after about 24 full hours which were not there yet but by 5:00 today I'm putting it aside we've had it happen before and we still managed to win 12 games three straight years and win our division two out of the last three years we've been a playoff team 5 at the last eight years so these happen but this doesn't derail the season in any way shape or form it's just one loss... It does hurt you keep saying nothing will change but it does change I mean you guys keep saying that there's a lot of teams in this league that don't get to make the playoffs as much as us there are teams that don't win their divisions their teams are not top six and at least have a chance to compete someday it will come back around just like the chiefs took 52 years and I use them as an example because they came back around and started winning again with a much longer drought and then you Add all the teams that's never won a Super Bowl in there so let's calm down on it's never gonna change the word never it's not something you use because it's too permanent everything changes life is about change it will change someday we will be back in the promised land we just don't know when.

SAME HERE, used to make me sick to my stomach yearrrrrrrrrrs ago, over the last few years, I find it comical!!!! I'm used to it, it's going to happen, nothing has proven us wrong yet! It is what it is, no need to get mad and break stuff and go crazy. They sure as hell don't care

I didn't turn it off because I knew this team was going to lay down and get beat this year. Wait until some terrible team beats them like the Cardinals did last year. :rolleyes:

Of course it looked like it was over early but it really the big momentum swing was when Brooke slipped and it turned into an interception right before the half and turned into points for them I mean that was a big swing that was a momentum swing and that was the play and moment that I felt like we were gonna lose the game for sure and not make a comeback there was a chance like in the Seattle game last year with the defense didn't show up and we went score for score and then eventually they made a stopper 2 on defense and then we won the game so that could've happened it but that is why I didn't turn the game off until into the third quarter but I knew at that moment when Brooke slipped and let's be clear that interception was totally on the receiver slipping it was a perfectly thrown ball that was putting us in scoring position and who knows could have got a touchdown there it would have been a big swing 'cause we were getting the ball back in the second-half so we ran more time off the clock go....he ball back there was still a chance.

No I didn't watch the fourth quarter it's not unusual for me I just had to turn it off and get back to calming down so that way I would sleep better there was no way I wanted to keep watching but I definitely watched into the third quarter 'cause you never know but yes that moment to me brooke sli....swing that absolutely killed the game....

I exercised a significant divestment from this team after the 2022 season. Still a fan (53 years), but I sold my PSLs and don't feel much emotion about the outcomes anymore. Go Cowboys!

I watch it now like it is a reality show. I can't really root for players who do not care about winning. I still have some players I like to watch and will cheer for but for the most part I am just watching to see what happens with the cast of clowns. Imagine watching the Green Bay game then rewarding those responsible with massive contracts then watching the Saints game and getting mad about what happened. The would truly be insane. It was to be expected. It will happen again. Will these guys all of a sudden start to care? Heck no. They will quit on the field and the coaches will be blamed and we will move on.

Everything for the Saints looks easy. They were fierce and violent all night long. Fast and physical. Everything for Dallas looked hard. They were getting beat up play after play. Soft and slow. Always on the ground after the play. It felt like a pretty one sided match up the entire time. A methodical beat down of an opponent not interested in fighting back.

Yeah, I really don’t care at all, its just more of the same stuff we’ve seen before.

To be honest, that Packers game broke my faith in the whole organization.

Lose yugely or win bigly…that’s my motto. I enjoy it either way. I don’t enjoy the games that could have gone either way.

When I was a teenager and young adult losses used to take its toll on me.

I just laugh at it now when they play bad. It’s because the team and management has just become so unlikeable to me.

I used to always watch to the bitter end even if we lost. Not now. I now expect failure and as such once we go down more then 2 touchdowns and Dak spits the bit, there is no point hanging around.
