I think many are overrating the Giants, they beat a bad Viking team who we destroyed. Expect the Eagles to blow them out. As for the 49ers, probably the best roster in the entire league, the biggest x factor is their QB. Can we put the game on his shoulders?
I am not basing it on the Minnesota game.,

You just gave it away, can we put the game head shoulders. It’s OK you can be a 49er fan. But they’re not going to win Sunday.

If he is for the Cowboys, you brought him up right. :laugh:

Zero chance I'd allow my kids to root for another team. They were brought up following this team. I made snacks to entice them into watching games with me and cheering for Dallas. It would be an outright betrayal for them to switch teams.

At the least I'd want my snacks back.

He can tell his team that. But how do you satisfy us.
that NOT their job , fans thinking that is the issue is not on our team. reality is they are just the 2022 Dall Cowboys and that their history, what they do this year is all they are responsible for.

VOR , common sense POV is not acting like anything when its a FACT.
I don’t know what that stands for. There’s nothing wrong with us looking ahead. Actually only till tomorrow and Sunday. I think the Giants win I think we win

Again, obviously, but fans are different than the franchise. We have the luxury of looking ahead, we have the luxury of looking behind. That’s all I’m saying. I have no idea what you’re trying to say.

I don’t know if this means calm down, I’m excited my adrenaline is flowing already. I have total confidence. Or if this is I agree. Either way I like it.
What do the Japanese do to show respect Read that in Aretha's voice sounds better that way :bow:

but this is the very narrative MM was avoiding telling his team you are not carrying 30years of this teams failures, most weren't born and to just be the 2022/23 Dallas Cowboys and handle that with normal pressures that come with the playoff games..

hes right, fans may feel this way but to this team this is the most important game of 2023... thats it.
Well, most of the players on the team weren’t alive 30 years ago so should be easy for them not to have a ton of bad memories about it!

All joking aside, the fans fee the players play…and mm has them ready to play, after the SFTSL from last game I’m convinced this team is actually different

All of these playoff games are big . I’ve never missed one going back to our first in 1966.

The Divisional round is of course the bigger one for it sets you up to play in championship game and a shot at Super Bowl.

But Id argue we’ve had bigger divisional playoff games this era. As a matter of fact as a WC on the road in underdog fashion I’d argue it’s not as big as when we had home field in 2007 and 2016.

Those seasons we were set up for success. This year we are more of an underdog role . Not expected to make it. We’ll see how that plays out.

I would love to go play Philadelphia in the NFCCG. I have never seen a team that is loved by the media more then the Eagles are. I hate the Giants and Eagles equally so it really does not matter to me. Old Max (ESPN) is talking trash like the Giants are the Cowboys daddy or something.
It should matter cause if we get NY at home instead of going to Philly that provides us a greater chance for success.

This will be a very similar game IMO just have to not have 14 penalties and we have shot to win..we are very evenly matched team

so you cant give them an advantage like we did last year but will be a very close throughout if its a clean game.

I just can’t cheer for the Giants or Eagles. Hope they play 7 overtimes. Does not matter. Hate the 49ers too.
It’s actually very simple. We have to root for what’s in the best interest of the Cowboys.

That’s part of being a fan.
