It’s fine on Monday, but assuming we win, that means that we go to Philly (probably) On the following Sunday. That will be our third row game in a row, and on a short week… versus a team coming off of a bye. That will be a tough challenge.

The NFL likes to talk a good game when it comes to fairness, but they continuously screw teams over by giving one side a pretty big advantage in terms of preparation time and rest.

Don't think fairness, think viewership and money, and then it will all make sense

Beating the Bucs, 49ers and Eagles on the way to the SB would be like multiple orgasm.

Monday playoff really does feel stupid

Also the reason joe and Troy dont work for mnf is Bc so often mnf is a dud and it’s standalone.

A big appeal of buck ail man on fox late afternoon was that they’d have a lot of nfl news and games to discuss. Lot of Nfc east results. It felt good to have them around
But Buck and Aikman DO call MNF unless I’ve been living in an alternate reality.

Joe Buck is an old St Louis Cardinals fan . Can’t forgive Landry for beating them like a drum .

the money is coming in from the TV providers regardless, NFL could not care less, Goodell hates Jerry.
There is a TON of truth to this statement .. ever since JJ led the movement to can Roger. He's never gotten over it.

Why did the NFL create a schedule where, in the playoffs, a team playing on Monday could end up playing a team that played on Saturday. If the Gnats and 49ers win, the winner of the Monday game (hopefully the Cowboys) has to travel to San Francisco. That is a big advantage for the 49ers. Monday playoff games are a terrible idea.

Great teams don’t get screwed by the NFL. Great teams overcome whatever obstacles they have. It’s what makes them great. Whoever wins the SB this year will do so after overcoming lots of obstacles. Champions are always tough. Which is the biggest reason we haven’t won one in a long time. Not tough enough.

First postive post from a Cowboys Zone member about the 2022 New York Giants I have seen this season.
Compliments to you, Creeper.
I said before the season the Giants would be a greatly improved team. I am kind of amazed how well Daniel Jones has played with the receivers he has. They play hard but they still have some issues here and there. They could be a challenger for the division title next year. . We'll have to see how the offseason goes for all 4 teams.
