I do not think anyone questions the turn overs from the Tampa-2 scheme. I think people question the same thing has been done on Offense for how many years now, and all of a sudden people think we are going to win 10-11 games. If Jason is no longer going to call games, maybe things will change, but until I see that in real games, there is nothing to brag about. I really see this team as 8-8, maybe 9-7.

I"d love you bet you.... I got a bet going with one of my friends for a hundred dollars for every game over or under 8-8.... I'm feeling pretty good about this bet and feel like ill be getting an easy 2 hundred possibly 3 hundred bucks. Meaning dallas wins 10 games pretty easily this year..... I'm thinking 11 possibly 12 with a few breaks here and there. That's the kind of talent on this team this year, not 8-8..... There's so many good things going on with this team and I'm finally excited going into a season

If Marinelli and Kiffen were teaching fundamentals on defense, what exactly was JG doing on the offensive side of the ball, when Rob Ryan was teaching defensive trigonometry? Were you one of those guys complaining about how Dez Bryant didn't know how how to run routes properly last year, because everything was other than Garrett's fault when the offense was suffering?

In theory, if we were to bet, set the line at 9-7, I'll take the under, $100 per win or loss over or under? I really would love them to win, but there are too many things to go wrong. PM me if you are interested.

You said 8-8.... Maybe 9-7, so I think the line should be set at 8-8 But to be honest i cant afford to make another bet of 100 a game incase by some tragedy of injury to big time players and Dallas only ends up winning 5 or 6 games to have to owe 2 people significant money, lol,but I would wager they finish better than 9-7 straight up.. Your call

Guys, those bets are not smart.

Romo gets hurt game three, and there goes the season. RG3, Peyton, and Rodgers go down, and suddenly they're 13-3.

I think 10-6 is pretty certain, and 11-5 is very possible if the right guys stay healthy. The NFL always comes with that critical asterisk.

If literally ANYONE in this organization, including the 53rd player on the roster all the way up to Jerry is sitting around "smugly", i hope Sean Lee goes right up to them and punches them in the nose.

That's the last thing we should be doing right now.. is feeling any kind of satisfaction with where we are currently.

The attitude i want is that we are nothing right now. We've stunk for years.. and if we want respect, we need to go out and scratch and claw every second of every quarter to earn it back. That's the attitude i want to see from top to bottom in this organization.

No player is thinking like any fan, (GOOD OR BAD)...The players have 100% different things on their minds and 100% different ways of looking at things.

Not true at all. If Peyton or Rodgers go down, those teams are middle of the road teams easily. If RG3 go's down, his team could win more games I think. With Washington, DC's have to spend some time game planning for two QB's and two complete different styles. The reason Peyton and Rodgers are MVP's is because if they go down, so do their teams...

I saw self-confident as a related word. when things are "completely different", they would show up as near antonyms, not related words.
smug is a inflictive emotion where as confident is simply believing in ones self,imho
