Reversing our playoff luck

[Fmart322]

Remember the luck the Cowboys had after "the catch" in that 81 championship game vs SF?
All bad.
Remember how we had to finally beat SF in 92 before the Cowboys finally changed their luck?

Maybe this Seattle game is the same thing for this generation of the Dallas Cowboys? After that Romo bobbled snap, nothing went right for the Cowboys in the playoffs, or making the playoffs. I mean before that game, everyone felt Romo was "the guy". He turned the Cowboys around.
Afterwards, his reputation took one of the worst hits i've ever seen in sports.

Even the the same official is doing this game. Walt Anderson. The guy who took away Witten's 1st down, forcing that FG attempt.

Not sure if that is how it works but you make an interesting point

I still believe good teams make their own luck.

Winning this game and the next game will be a start, by creating their own luck.

Fwiw, Dallas has won two of their last three home playoff games

Reversing their fortune...imo...would be winning at least two this year

It took 11 years for those Cowboys to reverse their fortunes vs SF.
It's been 11 years since that Seattle playoff game.
Just sayin.

The Seattle playoff game was on Jan 6, 2007. So-- technically it's 12 years.

Spooky. I would love to see them make this game a statement game that we have arrived. Daks play Sunday was not a fluke and he can get it done. Cooper makes a few huge plays. Elliot breaks off about 150 on the ground and another 75+ in the pass game. Our Defense gets about 4 or 5 sacks and stuff the run.

Right. Beating NO in the Super Dome would be making a statement. Shades of 1992 going on the road to beat the favored #1 seed in their house. Of course, we have to dispatch with Seattle to make that come to fruition.

2019 marks 30 years since JJ bought the Cowboys. One or two road playoff wins?

1992 was our last road playoff win, I believe.

IF we get to play a road game, that will be an accomplishment for the Cowboys’ GM. Winning a road game will be turning things around...finally.

Need a spy for sure.

The DEs can't lose containment and the DTs need to maintain gap responsibility and pressure up the middle.

Wish Irving was playing. For all the trouble he is l, he would be a beast in this type of game.

Jaylon is faster with more experience.

 

[nightrain]

Dominate the LOS.....game.

 

[Praxit]

..so many variables will play my friend. We just can hope they are in our favor.

Any status update on him ?

That's right. I just wanted it all to work out neatly for my post.
