Losing to an undefeated team in their house with a backup QB. Oh the misery.

The Cowboys have won their last 8 divisional matchups. It was inevitable.

The defense was getting full of themselves, and the Eagles did them a favor by pointing out some deficiencies. It's a blessing going forward.

The Eagles are the #1 Rushing team. The Cowboys matched that, had more total yards and held them to 3.9 yards per play. It's the penalties and turnovers that killed them. All correctable.

The Eagles are just giddy about the win considering the Cowboys hung 92 points on them last season. Let them celebrate for now. They know deep down 3 turnovers and 10 penalties, and the Cowboys were within 3 late in the game. Who in the NFC is clearly better than the Cowboys? Really, who?

Things are looking pretty darn good right now going forward considering.

and tho we didn't get the w last night...our defense blanked the "72 dolphins" in the 3rd qtr...cutting the lead to 3pts.
defense fought all nite to keep us in it.
i'll take our chances with this d going forward.

These "Step Back From the Ledge" posts amuse me as for their preachiness and presumption.
Too, I detect no panic nor mass dejection here.


Aside from tha, old boy, you make a good point re the defence being full of themselves.
I hope we do not underrate the upcoming teams. Lions and Bears ...

you'd think the eagles were about to reel off 5 straight undefeated seasons.
the biggest urban myth of them all.
i like our team.
i like our chances moving forward.

Yeah, put down the hemlock.

Get your head out of that oven.

Climb down from that chair

Place that samurai sword back in it's sheath.

Open that garage door.

Cancel that contract you put on yourself.

Lock that lion's cage back up.

You are a Dallas Cowboys fan, suicidal tendencies come with the territory, deal with it!

Im confused....has there been panic on the board? Everyone seems pretty chill about the rest of the season to me but im a sporadic member so maybe i missed it
I based this on the majority of knee jerk posts right after the game.

The Lions and Bears are like the petting zoo you see dotting the freeways and byways of this vast land . You plop down your Hamilton so the kids can see a pony or a goat you snap a selfie next to the occasional sheep and your back on the road to 6-2 heading into much needed refreshments ( bye week for worn down playas ) as Carissa Thompson or Melissa Stark breathlessly tell the latest Fluff coming from the N F L ….6-2 is the mantra fella and memorize it

All true. Good points.

The counterpoint is that I sincerely doubt this team can win three road playoff games in a row. They need at least one home playoff game to have a shot. That can’t happen unless they win the division….which they certainly can still do.

This game essentially turned the NY game and the next Phil game into must wins, unless Philly implodes, which is also very possible.

As long as the Cowboys take care of the next 2 opponents and head into the bye at 6-2, they will be well positioned for a run at the Division title.

Well said and very true. Being a fan (“fanatic”) takes away a lot of our objectivity. For some it’s impossible to fathom that all NFL teams have talent and are capable of outplaying our favorite team, :)

The way I see it, It's a seventeen game season. Any talk of playoffs, division championships, is premature and thus knee jerk by nature. the Washington commodes are still alive , The Giants and the Eagles are untested, the Cowboys are about to find out what type of football team we have. It's a long season and it will play out how it plays out. So relax and enjoy the ride...............
Or spazz out ,overreact to every little thing. Your choice
