Our fanbase is too entitled

My favorites are the "You don't know what you're looking at!!" crowd.


In no way proclaiming to be an NFL level analyst but in the clips os Smith within that video it seems he awaits contact by the OL instead of pushing/penetrating off the snap....like there is a wait to see what happens delay.

I wonder if Mike Fisher wrote this thread Title.... He is the King of calling the fans names for having expectations. His motto should be, sit down, click the QR code and buy merch.

I guess the idea of this thread is rid ourselves of any expectations and learn to like what we have been for 30 years. Asking questions and pushing back is forbidden. Just buy the merch, tickets and shut up.
The point went over your head

losers also resort to using emoji's.

If you cannot write good enough, try texting. Seems more the speed for a loser
You actually feel if the Cowboys win that makes you a winner as well lol. Go live vicariously through Parsons or whoever your favorite player is. I guess that will make you a loser as well :thumbup:

We have no patience to let players just develop anymore. Players like Parsons, Tyler, Diggs, Dak, Zeke, etc that were immediately great players have skewed peoples perception of what a rookie development looks like. Settle down and let players develop.
These NFL draft picks are more developed coming into the league than years past. Are you telling us that a first round picks isn't ready to start?

Super Jerry showing the Jets how it is done for 27 years and counting.

Even the Jets make back to back conference championship games within the last 15 years. Hard to even imagine what that level of success feels like anymore.

I get what you are saying. I'm not sure entitled is the right word though. But overall I think, like Dallas East said, that there is a frustration issue where people think there are missing pieces to this team going further and the draft and FA should fill those. When they see top drafted rookies struggle they automatically think we wasted a chance. It is unrealistic but I think that is what it is rooted in.
Agreed. exasperated is the word not entitled.

yet we are deemed 'entitled". I think many Dallas fans have what they call Stockholm syndrome.

is the SB still the goal? Just askin. THEN YES. Futility is not reaching the ultimate goal for nearly 30 years.
There it is right there. THE SUPER BOWL IS NOT THE GOAL FOR ME. It may be the goal for the Dallas Cowboys, but it is not why I watch.

That's just how I enjoy life. Do I want the Cowboys to win it all , Damn right. I've been here for all five ! Watching the team is why, watching players that I admire perform well

Watching the team I admire play well, That's why I watch. So futility ? Nah as long as they play hard, win some games I'm good . The Super Bowls will come when they come.

It's the journey my man, not the destination

"we shall not speak of whom we shall not name. Thus we get our fandom shamed." Results be damned. Some Dallas fans rather reside in Narnia , than in reality.

at least u admit it and own it. I respect you for that. I can't do it. For me, the reason for the season is winning on the big stage. Anything else is failure.

Id Say a SB has to be the goal. When a team has back to back 12-5 seasons and been in 2 playoffs, I would say the next progression has to be a SB appearance.

I originally thought of settling for an NFC Championship game appearance but after watching the Eagles march all the way directly to a SB our team’s expectations should be AT LEAST SB or bust.

hey, I wish everyone on here was as openly honest as u. Even though I largely disagree with you. Most just hide behind a keyboard with this passive aggressive junk, when they really wanna say something else . I take 0 issue with disagreements. As long as nothing is taken personal. We all want the same thing, but have a differing view on what that may look like during the journey.Thats fine. Would be nice if we'd win the SB soon. Im gettin old.
