Never been this disengaged with the Cowboys during a season

Honestly, Jerry Jones has made me become disinterested in my favorite team.

I don't even know who's not practicing this week.

Is Micah?

It doesn't even matter.

I already know the 49ers are going to destroy us because they have something called scheme and creativity on offense.

McCarthy's idea of a scheme is to have all the Receivers run 7 yard curl routes.

Jerry Jones is losing me as a fan.

When someone asks me now if the Cowboys are playing, I say, "Who cares"

Nothing to look forward to, even if they turned it around and started winning (unlikely) no one would believe they'll do anything in the playoffs. And if we bomb hard enough to get rid of Mike, we won't make a good replacement hire, and Jerry will still be running the show.

it's bleak

:hammer:

Exactly.
This is the fist time in my life that I actually want the Cowboys to lose every game from here on.

Whatever it takes for the narcissist SOB to sell the team.
That’s what I want.

The team needs to be rid of the cancer of the Jones family.

Unfortunately, it's a case of sucking it up and getting used to it.

Ah, come on now, nobody else feels that way!

Oh, wait, I do.

Gee, Jerry's even making me forget how I feel about the Cowboys.

Lucky you’re not near old enough to remember the 88 and 89 season. The Cowboys won only 4 games in two seasons. You fans who come claiming you don’t care anymore about how the team is playing are just lying to yourselves or you wouldn’t be posting about the team.

I’ve been numb for 15 seasons.
Yes, and we're about to eclipse the 30th anniversary of "any one of 500 coaches could take this team to the Super Bowl"

Wow, hasn't Jerry paid enough of a price for that comment? Sell the team! The rest of us are tired of watching the dues for that comment above, collected during the first round of the playoffs. Dallas likely won't even get there this year.

I get the same impression on the board from other posters. We don’t live and die as Cowboys fans anymore. To me I lost interest every year since the Dez catch game ripped my heart out. Jerry refuses gamble at making our team better like all the other teams in the league so I kinda have moved on to other things myself. I work Sundays now or do none football activities. For most of my life in the Fall through mid winter, I was in front of my television watching Cowboys football. Not now.

I have never been more apathetic. I will watch every game. But I don’t get excited at all. Winning doesn’t make me happy really and losing doesn’t surprise me at all

There’s times I have a glint of optimism and think “hey maybe they could make the playoffs if enough things start going right and guys get healthy”.

But I have absolutely zero reason to believe they can actually meaningfully compete for a championship so it’s like meh.

The only thing I really care about right now is watching to hope young talent develops.

I want to slam you for your super duper fan thread a while ago, but this is nothing but understanding and sympathy for being a fellow Cowboys fan, it is a challenge to be engaged with this mess.

I have been this way since the playoff game last season. They showed no fight or energy and this was after everything needing to go right, did to get that 2 seed. As lackluster of a playoff effort I have seen from Dallas. And we did zero in the offseason and actually, got worse. I turned that game off at halftime. I turned Baltimore and Detroit games off at halftime. Just don't really care. Wins or losses don't sway me anymore. I am now 40 and it's been since I was in grade school I have seen this team past the divisional round. All because of one man and how he chooses to run the team. Screw Jerry.

Its hard, its painful (at least for me) watching my fav team in all sports to be demolished and humiliated. Thats why I haven’t watch a full game this season.

But now, I just watch football and follow (im not rooting) another team that I do consider interesting.

I will always be a Cowboy fan, but im not following nor watching games until Jerry dies.

100% false. This whole "you commented so you care". I enjoy talking sports in general. I am 100% apathetic to this Dallas team. Do I want them to win? Sure. Does it bother me anymore they don't? Not really, it's now expected.

I think the biggest issue is there seems to be no sense of urgency anywhere in the Cowboys organization.

Ownership doesn't seem concerned which means the rest of the front office is not concerned.

The coaches don't seem concerned (what happened to angry Zimmer?). I don't know if that's because McCarthy assumed he was gone when he didn't get a contract extension last season or he simply realizes no one above him cares about winning as much as he assumingly does.

The players don't seem concerned, which is really disappointing as a fan. This is especially true with players who got their money.

Where are the players angrily stating, "We need to fix this now!"? Instead, we get, "It's all good. We will figure it out eventually" types of comments.

It just seems like the only people that care that the Cowboys are playing poorly are some of the Cowboys fans, and even the number of upset fans is declining as more fans are becoming apathetic to the losses.
