Ok... Contenders or Pretenders... I cant tell?

We are 3-0 against the scrubs and 0-2 against good teams. The Giants game should shed some light on this question.... I think?

 

[Aikbach]

A team with confidence and experience issues but all the tools to put it together right now they are what I would call a threshhold team, grazing the line between the elite and second tier of the NFL.

 

[Natedawg44]

I'm not worried about Tiki or Brandon Jacobs. I'm worried about our coverage of Shockey and what kind of game their DEs will have.

 

[JD_KaPow]

It's not just that. We're 3-0 against bad teams at home (Washington without Portis is a bad team). We're 0-2 against good teams on the road. Next week we get a (pretty) good team at home. Not 'til week 10 do we play a bad team on the road (Arizona). If we're a good team, those are the ones we should win convincingly.

 

[BlueStar22]

right now, I'd say way until after next Monday night. Better yet, wait until after the Carolina game. With Bledsoe at QB, we may be just a bit better than the Skins offensively. Stonehenge has to improve his play.

We played 3 road games and 2 home games so far.
We beat a bad Tennessee team convincingly on the road....

seems like you are a little mixed up...

He is, but his point about 0-2 versus good teams on the road is correct. No questions were answered against the Texans but I hope some chemistry between Bledsoe and Owens began to appear in this game. We'll find out more against the Giants.

Owens told Drew... just trust me... I can attack the ball... just throw it to me

We are not contenders, but we are close. We need a few players we don't have. Most of our second yr guys are having quite yrs.

We will be contenders when we get better QB play and the second yr guys step up.

Yes, the 4-5 dropped passes, 2 for touchdowns in the Philly game must have really bolstered Drew's confidence in TO

Drew is on pace for 23 touchdowns and 3,500 yards passing. The INTs need to stop but basically he's giving the Cowboys what they paid for. Even more if TO would stop dropping the easy ones.

Dude I see the agenda already. You quick to point out the drops but fail to point out the quaterbacks deficencies. Tell the whole story not half.

please...if he is "on pace" for 23 tds, you must also note he's "on pace" for 23 picks too...

TO has dropped a few short balls, but Bledsoe has missed on numerous wide open TD opportunities not only to TO, but the other receivers as well...then factor in the missed receivers on routine plays, the bad reads, all the sacks he has taken (some have clearly not been the OL's fault) and you have to conclude that right now, Bledsoe is the worst player on this offense

If we beat the Giants and get a streak going, we're definitely contenders.

If we lose to the Giants, we're probably pretenders who will bounce back and forth all year, staying just a tad over .500.

You are correct sir!

We are PreContenders. :laugh2:

Ask again after 3 weeks. We should know by then.

 

[Maikeru-sama]

Pretenders at this point.

Like someone else stated, nothing was answered by destroying the Houston Texans.

At first glance I just thought it was cute but upon further review.... PreContender probably is correct... we are caught in between.... kudos to you

Cowboys are pretenders in my book until they prove otherwise... They have major consistency issues. Curiosity kills cats, Consistency kills NFL teams!

Go Cowboys! Prove me otherwise
