Neither Cowboys playoff scenarios are ideal

Yes, today was ugly but wasn’t our topic of discussion.

Relates.

He is still a good player, but is he even a top 5 QB in the playoffs.

No.

If we stay at the 5th seed then we must go to Tampa and face the GOAT. Even with Tampa down this year the QB we have never beat has shown some sparks of greatness down the stretch.

And if Egirls lose , assuming Whiners don’t lose then we’d end up with 2nd seed and most likely face the Packers and Rodgers at home . Another matchup we’d rather not see even with GB down this year but playing well down the stretch.

Reaching the #1 seed is least likely scenario . We’d need the current top seeds to both lose today.

My hunch is both current top seeds win today. And Packers fill #7 seed with with only change in current standings .

GB goes to SF
NY at Minn
Dall at Tampa

I wasn't afraid of Tampa until today when imposters showed up in Washington calling themselves the Cowboys and stunk up the field in all three phases of the game. If those guys show up in Tampa, you can forget about the guys with stars on their helmets going home with a win.

Perhaps after the game today it relates but not before which the discussion had already begun.

My feelings about the Tampa game weren’t impacted much from todays performance which was just another example of how inconsistent we can be.

If anything I think we might be better prepared now in Tampa as we have usually responded after poor performances. Today could serve as a wake up call.

Cowboys lost on purpose today so we play the Eagles in the 2nd round. Dak is 10-1 against them!!!

I think we thought Wash might lay down with nothing to play for. And with a Rookie QB starting a potential admittance they weren’t even trying to win.

But we provided them life early on with turnovers which bolstered their will to win.
