We have all the post game blow it up, this team sucks, we aren't good enough to make the playoffs, Fire everyone posts and threads.

Its been 2 weeks and only 6 teams are currently 2-0.

Chargers, Vikings, Saints, Bucs, Seahawks and Bills.

These teams are not going to take over the league because they are 2-0 and the teams at 1-1 are not garbage all of a sudden. Heck Ravens are 0-2 and they are going to be alright. Its 2 games. Yes we got our butts kicked bad. Sometime thats better than a close loss because it forces everyone to focus in and not pretend we almost had em.

It’s really not about the record for me though, as I said the cowboys will be a decent- good team, they don’t suck. It’s just the same issues we’ve seen since last year or longer be the same issues now.

The run game, the lack of stopping the run, becoming one dimensional. Those are the issues - the same things that have plagued us in the post season.

Hahahaha.

We got run off the field today. In the first real game on this field after getting run off the field by GB.

The same problems showed up - questionable coaching problems, lack of a run game, porous run defense, QB making peculiar throws and not being able to make big throws when needed.

Forget the record. The bigger problem is how we played and how it doesn't look all that different from teams that have failed in previous years.

Bingo. This is a good team, but we continue to run it back and for some reason are surprised by the same results.

Dallas didn’t have to travel, especially from the WC like others. It was at home, no excuses…..they spit the bit.

This really is the first game of the season. Last week was the glorified 4th preseason game. This is why all but 6 are 1-1

:hammer: ........And most importantly....We have the same dopes trying to come up with answers....when they have had 5 seasons to clean this mess up.

McCarthy and his crayon playbook is not the answer......
Prescott wasn't the answer
Zimmer.....and his soft DTs....soft zone coverage.....not the answer.
Moving Parsons around.....Where he disappears .....is not the answer.
Tolbert as the 2nd option wasn't the answer.....regardless how bad the Dallas media tried to sell it.

The problem isn’t that they lost. The Ravens, 49ers and Lions all lost. The problem is that those teams were competitive in their losses. This is 2 straight home games the Cowboys were not competitive virtually from the kickoff.

I haven’t left a game at the half since 1989, not even in the Campo years and I’ve now done it the past 3 home games.

You, sir are delusional. What has changed with this organization that makes you think things will be “ok”? Until the current GM steps down, nothing will change.

You’ll get flamed but you make a lot of sense here.

You left at halftime of the Lions game?

I’d be more willing to take on this monger if we didn’t do the following—

-look like complete and utter trash on the field today in all aspects and phases of the game. If the game was close I’d understand but it never was close. Ever.

-currently possess two of the highest paid players in their respective positions who did nothing today to prove that deserve said pay while taking up 90% of our cap room that could have been allocated to better players

So when do we start being concerned?
We should have been concerned in July after Jerry sat on his hands all off-season.

Why are people expecting so much for a team that did nothing to improve in the off-season? We lost a bunch of players and replaced them with no one or the cheapest washed up players we could find.

And by the way, does anyone really believe the Giants would have given us Jordan Phillips in a trade if they thought he was any good?
