I'm a bit pissed right now because my 5 year old son is getting bullied by a group of Commanders, Eagles, and Giants fans in kindergarten (because he sometimes wears a Cowboys jersey). I figured the best way to handle it is to tell him he doesn't have to wear the jersey to school - so kids won't have a reason to mess with him; however, when I was a kid my dad probably would've told me to punch them in the face. I don't really know because I don't ever recall having this problem in school. I don't want him getting kicked out of school for fighting, so I guess the best solution is my solution.
Never the less, I'm really pissed that people teach their 5 year old kids to hate the Cowboys - so now is the time to be the team that we were assembled to be. No more dumb mistakes and beating ourselves. It's time for Zeke to bust some huge runs and take over the league in rushing again. It's time for Dak to prove that he's worth 30+ million a year and he is the guy that can win big games like he's done in the past. It's time for Amari to stop dropping balls and start dropping those insane video game like stats that he occasional does & show that he might just be one of the best WRs in the game. It's time for the defense to continue to play like they've been playing against our last 2 opponents (which happen to also be divisional rivals). I believe they've created 7 turnovers and only given up 28 points in the last 2 games & they've also put some insane pressure on Wentz & Danny pennies, and they've stepped up their sack total significantly compared to the first few weeks (including 2 strip/sack fumbles that turned into touchdowns; on both occasions). The defense has also been phenomental against the run - I think they held Philly to 50 rushing yards and Saquan to 28 rushing yards (2 yards per carry). They also held Wentz to 7.3 yards per completion & Danny pennies to 5.1 yards per completion.
The Cowboys outscored the two rivals by a combined 74-28... even though they played a pretty sloppy and penalty laden game against the Giants (10 penalties for 104 yards). The Giants also had several massive kick returns and great field position throughout the game (in fact they were in our Redzone 5 times and only scored 18 points). The Cowboys also left 7 points on the field (Cobb TD was called back b/c of a questionable holding call & Maher had a rare miss on one of his patented long distance 54 yard FGs). The Cowboys also have the worst starting field position in the league this season - so hopefully we can just attribute that to bad luck and improve on that drastically in the 2nd half of the season.
This team has a really tough schedule & none of these teams are going to be laydowns, but I just hope we can play to our potential, stay healthy, and get in the playoffs & be that team that gets hot in the playoffs.
Go Cowboys!
