One of the Cowboys weaknesses will cost them big

[CowboyMark]

It's obvious that the boys have several weaknesses. And I believe, even if they beat Philly to get into the playoffs, that one of them will cost us bigtime. It will either be special teams, OL, Romo's ints, lack of leadership, inconsistent offense, penalties, something will cost us. Not to say they don't have the talent to go all the way. But giving what we have seen I don't see it anymore. I just hope they prove me wrong. Because another year without a playoff win is really going to p*ss me off.

"A playoff win"? Singular?

Not acceptable.

Should Dallas win, the NFC postseason will include New York, Carolina, Arizona, Atlanta and either Minnesota or Chicago. A fairly healthy and supremely motivated Cowboys team beats all those teams.

Playoff wins are the only criteria which should be acceptable for these "I'm going pretend like I'm the NFC Super Bowl contender by appearing on HBO's Hard Knocks! WOO HOO!" underachievers. Victories in both the wild card and divisional rounds are not impossible goals and the conference championship shouldn't be outside their reach either. Super Bowl? I'm not even going to broach that subject, but one playoff win and out is not an acceptable outcome in my book.

The penalties are pissing me off. I know they happen in every game to every team, but man, we have them every game, same stupid penalties. Flase starts, offensive holding and delay of games are really starting to kill us.

I can take the occasional off sides by Ware, half of em aren't even penalties really. I can even stomach the occasional pass interference. I hate the fact thats a spot of the foul penalty, but they happen. But the offensive penalties are really becoming regular/anticipated and ever so annoying. Always at the wrong time and 'down and distance' too.

Special teams hands down, especially with the weather in Philly and field position being a huge factor. I just can't belive we haven't worked out another punter and the best we can do is Sam Paulescu.
