I felt people would say the Cowboys are a fraud because a lot of people thought Green Bay wasn't good and may have bought into the hype that winning the division was going to be a cake walk.

Folks, Green Bay is a very good football team. They have had some injuries on the Offensive Line but with a strong defense, good Quarterback and playing at home, they are capable of beating anyone in the NFL.

3 of their 4 losses came against Minnesota and Cincinnati, who are very good football teams.

The Cowboys are a good football team, they just laid an egg today and really have to work on becoming a runnning team as this is going to be crucial when it gets cold.

This was not a trap game, we just lost to a good football team.

Green Bay's front seven showed up today, and Flozell continues to show his age. Kind of the story of this season with Flozell.

But I still hope you have your flame retardant suit on.

No, just the #1 (Stat Padding) Offense Illusion...

Green Bay are mediocre at best, but you can delude yourself into thinking otherwise.

I know everyone is hoping for the skins to come to town, but they are doing some things with their passing game, alot of short passes, and their WRs are breaking tackles

we play zone alot

kind of worried

and their backs, Betts and Cartwright, are running hard

Green Bay wanted to win more than we did. That being said, I'm dissapointed that we lost against GB because I HATE that team.

Yes, but every loss is the bitter end! The team that can't get over 'the hump', though that hump is undefined. A string of wins means absolutely nothing in the face of a bad game. One bad game is all that's needed to create a concrete definition, while a string of good ones are to be scrutinized and called into question.

Romo sucks, Garret sucks, Wade sucks, they all suck. They only won four in a row because they were lucky.

Get real, sunshine boy.

Our defense played well all in all today.

Our STs hurt us with the miss FG in the 1st Qtr. Also, our Offense just didn't execute in virtually all facets.

Just one of those days, unfortunately.

I don't understand how you can say that. Flo has had a very solid season. Today was not good but it was the single exception.

These players are no frauds. We have great talent and more importantly we finally have guys with heart and determination.

Our coaches, however, have always been and always will be frauds. They are so terrible that they are holding one of the most talented teams in football back. What a sorry display they put on today.

how do you propose they work on the running game? the excuses are over it's time to put up or shut up! grab the bull by it's horn

no one will believe we are for real with performances like that one

I said a few weeks ago that people needed to be careful writing off the Commanders and the Giants.

Mike Golic and Chris Collinsworth on the radio a few weeks ago said they were worried about what would happen to Dallas in the cold, if they didn't become a running team.

These kind of offensive performances kill me. We miss a FG after a decent opening drive and it's all downhill from there. There's been too many games when Garrett cannot decide what kind of team he wants to be that day and this was yet another one. Will he be run heavy? Pass heavy? He seemingly can't make the proper adjustments. We ran pretty good on that first drive and then the run disappeared. Why? Especially with all the GB blitzing.

I'll agree with the OP. Green Bay is a good team. I even posted earlier in the week that I wouldn't be surprised if Green Bay won (considering their season was on the line).

That's not the issue. The same bone-headed bull**** that plagued this team last season just reared it's ugly head. Green Bay won. Fine. It happens. If the the offense would have shown a modicum of a pulse (great playcalling Garrett), it would be easier to stomach.

The O-line sucked, Romo sucked, The WRs sucked, the blitz pickup by the backs sucked. Green Bay didn't even need to be a good team to win today. We would have been beaten by the Lions.

Same **** different year. Get a little bit of a roll going and POW! Sit down Dallas it's time for your predictable, obligatory let down. It's not that they lost. It's how they lost. With no heart, no brains, and no courage. Their off to see the wizard....................again. Hopefully they get to Oz before next week.

I don't think they wanted to win more. The Defense played fantastic football and were playing amped all night. Tonight is all about the failure of the offense.
