Hey the Cowboys have a strong defense, and an offense that needs some time to untrack itself.
Most every game this year has been either STRESSFUL or disappointing. I don't know how much more I can take of this! By the way, a 13 point lead is STRESSFUL.
However, while the expectations and hopes for a bye in the playoffs are pretty much gone, the truth is that we have a lot of rookies and guys with little game experience starting right now.
These players are learning some hard lessons right now, UNDER PRESSURE, and if they apply these lessons when we get to the playoffs, this team can do a LOT of damage, make it to the NFL championship game. From that point, with a bit of luck, they can win the Super Bowl.
But the STRESSFUL game will be the trademark of this year's Cowboys.
Things can go downhill, the team can develop a losing attitude too, but the possibility is still there to go to the Super Bowl. Wait, watch and see. I'm not counting these Cowboys out until the last minute... scratch that, the last second!
Things I wish would happen.
Julius would run without being so concerned about fumbling. I think it's affecting his carries, by trying to run with two hands on the ball all the time.
Bledsoe would quit making 4 or 5 TERRIBLE throws per game. That's really getting frustrating. He's the veteran on the team, and he's allowed to make some mistakes, but it looks like he's making considerably more than he should.
Tucker and Pettiti continue to develop, (it takes time with ANY Offensive lineman) and become solid players this year.
The offensive line in general needs to gel just a little bit more. I truly don't know what it will take to make that happen.
Ware has faded lately, except when he is unblocked. I'm hoping that the light's about to click on for him, and then we can start pressuring with just 4 guys, like the Giants did today.
Crayton's going to come back, I can feel it.
