Twitter: Rich Eisen: the NFC East looks to be the Cowboys for the taking

[buybuydandavis]

God what a difference two weeks can make.

And these clowns on this forum were hitting the panic button after the Texans game.

We might win the division because the rest of the division has collapsed. Garrett and Linehan still suck.

Need to get and keep pressure on McCoy early. No soft zone crap to start the game. I don't want him getting comfortable early. We need to set the tone early and often.

How about we also do a better job of stopping AD this time?

I agree. If we can beat the Commanders, we have a great chance at winning the East

Honestly if we cant win the division at this point then it would just be sad. I see no reason why we don't win the division. Alex Smith is done, how can we not win it? Beat the skins on Thursday and its pretty much wrapped up as I see it.

 

[waving monkey]

I still dont think we win it



Dak and Garrett are such liabilities. Its a shame too, because the defense is really good.


We need to get to 9 wins, so we gotta go 4-2 with no semblance of a passing game. Not gonna happen

we'll win

We should beat them Roy, but this team is a roller coaster ride. I hope the injured Dlinemen are back for the thanksgiving day showdown

 

[RodeoJake]

we'll win

I think so too, but I should know better than to think anything when it comes to the Boys.

A+ for song choice...classic and one of the rare songs I know all the lyrics.

You lose points for the whole Spurs thing, but hey, Mavs beat the Warriors last night too, haha.

Texas Triangle beat up the defending champs.

There's absolutely no excuse for not winning this division now. The only real competition is Washington, and they'd already lost several starters before losing their starting QB today. We're almost going to win it by default.

Where is the column for convincing wins? I see wins, losses, ties, no convincing wins? Who gives a crap about convincing wins, in this league just win.

oh, i often quote the old cliches about a win being a win, and an ugly win being better than a pretty loss, etc. it keeps me from wasting the joy of a week in which my team had more points than the other team when the clock ran down to zero.

but here's the thing: good teams tend to overwhelm a lot of their opponents. in general, teams whose wins consist mostly of near losses, don't go on to win the big ones in january. i'm sure you could find some outliers, some exceptions that prove the rule. but the rule remains: good teams show you they're good by beating up on other teams.

so, while i enjoyed this win once that final field goal went through the uprights, i'm not seeing it as a sign that we'll be celebrating a bynch of playoffs victories this postseason.

The NFC East champ will stumble in, host a game in the wild card round, and maybe pull that one off.

Then they'll go on the road in the divisional round and it'll be season over.

Thanks fortune teller man!

 

[Floatyworm]

Kellen Clemens? Wow.

WAS will sign Yates. (My guess)

I thought they might go after Paxton Lynch...

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

Linehan is the biggest liability

I am going red on this one.

 

[ShortRound]

20 years of ptsd on CZ... even in wins. Go Cowboys!

Why not. One of the best Defenses in the league. Lot of good people on offense too.i think of Ur wrong.

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

The Commanders are bringing in a group of quarterbacks to work out on Monday, as Adam Schefter of ESPN.com tweets. Mark Sanchez, E.J. Manuel, and T.J. Yates will show their stuff for Washington as they seek a new backup quarterback for new starting QB Colt McCoy. Kellen Clemens will also get a workout, as NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport tweets.

Colt took it to us a couple of years ago when Romo was still here.

Dak is still leaving a lot of yards on the field. He is afraid to cut it loose. His pocket awareness is horrible, he refuses to step up in the pocket and at least threaten to run. He is not seeing it fast enough and if he is - it appears he is scared to trust what he sees and throw.

If only we had a QB coach that could help him overcome these weaknesses in his game....

@ some point you gotta quit blaming the coach and make the player responsible. Kellen can't make the plays for him.

i hope i'm wrong!

Hopefully we will start getting more people back on D. Will definitely need them against the Saints.
