This game reminded me of last season’s loss in the playoffs except Dak scored the go ahead touchdown. Tough loss. We really have to play at another level. Can we get there?
The thing is besides SF there really isn’t that much separation in the rest of NFC. We’ve shown we can hang with the rest. But we aren’t enough to overcome the best.

And that’s not necessarily an awful thing while it is disappointing and frustrating. Sometimes there’s just better teams in our way.

Possible road games in NFC playoffs

@TB won last year
@NO dome
@ ATL dome
@philly familiar
@ det dome
@SF doomed

No where in the NFC should Dallas be timid except @ SF. If Dallas was in The AFC would be a different story

So the results are in. Failure once again.

This team is just like all the others and nothing they do the remainder of the season or the wild card round will change that. Though some of you will try your best to convince us differently.

Losers lose and we are losers. Embrace it and let's talk draft.

Cowboys! Is it me or does next year already feel different?
By lowering my bar of expectations I am happy with.

Several winning seasons in a row.
1 or 2 and out in the play offs.
A QB who has his own pre game hip jig dance.
Superbowls are not a requirement anymore ,its the taking part that counts.
See ya all in year 29 for more fun and games.

I actually agree with this. It would be best long term for us to lose to Detroit then Washington and then get ousted in the WC round. We have to pop the delusional thinking that we are contenders and we can not extend Dak to a record setting contract.
What if they win the next 2 games and win the division?
Then they will be the 2 and play the 7 at home.

They also can still win the division and be the 2.

Talk draft all you want but what will really change this off season to get this team to the next level? This team has drafted well and has talent but yet nothing else I show for it. So what will it finally take?

4 weeks to try it again. But yeah draft talk don't seem far away.

Which is great, but don't let the Rams be our draw. Not in round one. Not saying we can't beat them, but it's not an ideal match up imo.

I know, but being the 2 gives them a better route. If they get that 1st win, they get a 2nd home game.

My sources tell me 2024 will be our year.

We will look into the stats.
We will again have a great draft. Even greater than the last one.
And it is rumored that our QB #1 will be in even greater shape than this year.


Now go buy all the great DC products!
Wash, rinse repeat.

Three straight winning seasons/playoffs and the Cowboys are losers. Stephen A is 100% right about our fan base.
Some set their standards higher than others. Losers follow losers even if they win nothing.

YES, maybe we will get a Mazi in the draft.

The season isn't over. They still can win the division and get the 2 spot. Do the Eagles look like winners?

Yeah you're right. They put a big dent in my confidence lately.

This is how they cope.

Thank God for emoticons.
Cope with what…..3 straight double win seasons and play-off appearance.

OP‘s posts are a COPING mechanism to deal with his lack of emotional intelligence that conjured up 8-9 wins

Thank God for useful buffoons ……Dak Haters Unite!!!:lmao::lmao2:

This team is done. They don't run well on the road (or even pass for that matter, unless it's the Eagles)...and if they don't stop the run on the road they are dead meat. Sadly...as much we might wish and rationalize otherwise, it's not Superbowl caliber. I've seen enough of this nonsense. The chance that this season won't end up like the previous two is "extremely" remote. I'd rate it at less than 5%.

Folks we were a back up OT away from winning the game yesterday. It's a shame Smith did not play. Dak generally played well, you just can't have their best D lineman not be blocked multiple times.

If Smith does not return for the playoffs we are done, pure and simple.

The quitter mentality that is instilled in some of our fans is rearing its ugly head again. The Cowboys are headed to the playoffs and can still win it all!
