The Eagles are getting old. They also lost some talent this offseason. I think we should be more worried about the Giants who are slowly improving where they need to improve.

You are clearly in need of a lesson in logic. The season has not started so they have in no way shown they are not the same old cowboys.
The roster and the coaching is excellent.

I agree. But good luck convincing some on here of that. :lmao:

Back to back 12-5 season, and getting a playoff win. Not a lot of changes overall as to the team roster and coaching staff. Actually got better on paper.
so a lot to look forward to.
I will say it to the day I pass on...that win gets an asterisk. How many times do teams get to play a playoff team with a losing record?


Even though we wet the bed at niners...I';m way more proud of going out there and nearly taking one from them. AT least they were a legit playoff team.

I am a Red Sox fan. Comparatively, Dallas fans are weak minded. Bill Buckner would have literally killed a lot of Dallas fans.
Nah, they'd have come up with a conspiracy theory that Buckner booted the ball on purpose because he bet on the game and the league used Pete Rose as a smokescreen to cover up Buckner's betting. As an aside, I'm a Mets fan so I don't care if it really was a conspiracy, lol.

I am LOVING they hype level. People are acting like losing their starting DT, LB, and S is a nothing.

The lost a starting OG too. And honestly, Cox is a year older and he was already slowing down. Kelce is going to be 36 this year. You just do not replace your top guys that easily I don't care what round you draft them.

Come on now Fuzzy Jackie Smith??????
Dallas had won 2 Super Bowls at that point. Imagine going 80 years and then Jackie Smith happening.

Plus there is a difference between the other team making a play and winning the game and your team making a horrible mistake and losing it.

Don't care for this line of reasoning by Spags:


If we're going to eliminate our three 5-11 seasons and blame in on "salary cap hell," then shouldn't the same be done for every other team? As this says, their winning percentage is 11th, don't try to embellish it and say it could be seventh. Some other teams had worse years than Dallas' worst that they would love to forget about.
However, Spagnolia did mention the playoff seasons that the Cowboys teams fell far short --- but neglected putting in the stark numbers ---
9 playoffs achieved from 23 regular seasons (2000-2022)
13 games; 4-9 record = .308
