The Cowboys haven't trailed in a game since...

...week 13 against San Diego per The Fan. That's pretty impressive. A light has come on and I hope the Cowboys use it to guide themselves all the way to Miami.

Bump. I just think this is a great fact. I'm confident they can win when they're trailing, but it's nice to make a statement early, then never let up.

The light has come on. They are playing like they truly do believe in themselves. There is nothing tentative about the coaching or the playing. They are taking games instead waiting for the opposition to give them the game.

Playing with a lead makes a huge difference for this team. It really complements the defense, and it keeps the playbook open on offense. Let's hope we keep it up in Minny.

This is the main thing Im worried about with this team. In the past they have struggled/paniced when they got down, hopefuly they won't get down against Minni, but hopefuly if they do they keep their composure. I think they will.

I thought about that too, but I think a lot of the pressure is off them now that they've shaken the "big game choker" stigma. I don't think you'll see the same reaction as we've seen in the past if they find themselves trailing. I expect them to play more like a team with nothing to lose.

And that makes them dangerous.
