Correct. I think a lot of people are whistling as they walk past the graveyard.

Each week is layering yet more adversity. I get that the Cowboys are resilient. But eventually an erosion of talent matters more than how hard you try or how much you want to win.

It's a good thing the team doesn't mirror the mentality of the fans, sometimes.

They say what does not kill you makes you stronger. We gonna be a real strong team in a few weeks.

Totally agree
But sure need them to slow down some
This games is gonna be tough minus a solid pass rusher
But hopefully others can fill the void
If we can just hang on, help is on the way and guys have gotten lots of playing time which really helps depth when we get the studs back

Geeze. Hopefully Dallas will be able to field a 46 man gameday roster.

If they win some games during this stretch... the rest of the league better watch out when the cavalry returns.

What's it going to be then, eh?

On a side note, thank goodness to be 2-0.

I don't think the team has quit. That is why they are players and we are fans.

As a fan, this is an exciting time. Will they respond? If they do, it will be remarkable given the talent loss.

It just amazes me that fans think that if they believe more, it matters.

In the stadium, perhaps.

On a message board discussing it?

Give me a break.

Forget about respect from the media, I'm nervous this will be a season were they lose too many pieces to injury.

Cowboys: Lose 5 or 6 more key pieces to injury

Media: I told you they were no good!

Rosenthal: Cowboys prove once again they can't handle success!

Cowboys will win the next 2 ballgames!

I slap you in the face "Rob Dobshire!!".
You punch me in the chest.
"You pansy little *****!"

We mates in this fight.

We'd have to, right? See how Russel does this week, since he's going to get some snaps it looks like one way or another with Mincey out.

We have two more games before Hardy gets back. I don't remember how many before Gregory. I don't even know how I feel anymore about Ro. I've thought Wilbur was less than good and better than average although in the minority here. But Ro doesn't add to the pass rush much and Wilbur can.

So I'd agree. Bring Edwards in and up for a couple of games or at least this week.

Years like this just makes the Murray fumble and blown no catch call all that more damning.

Heading back to the Super Bowl just doesnt seem to be meant for us.

He's gone for this weeks game, and he will be gone next year. Off season shenanigans often leads to injuries and trouble. Your body might not be right because of missed camp time, the league might fine you for off season shenanigans, or karma might catch up to you.

Dez - contract holdout. Pow! Karma plus conditioning got him.
Orlando - renogiate contract Pow! Karma.
Mincey - renogiate contract. Pow! Karma
Ro- offseason smoking, pill poppin, or injecting ( idk ) Pow league gets ya

Honor your contract, show up to training camp on time, and don't do anything illegal. Real simple

We suddenly are looking at a worse pass rush Sunday than we had for any of the games in 2013 & 2014. Not a good situation at all when you need the defense to carry the day, but next man up.

missing three players. three key players. that's tough
