There's nothing wrong with 3-3

You can't be serious??????? First off, I'm not rooting for any team other than the Cowboys! Secondly, if the Boys can't do the work, then they don't deserve a seat at the table at the end of the season...................
Who said anything about rooting for another team. Diehard Cowboy fans root for teams which help us like Ravens beating Wash.

I think most saw us at 2-4 headed into the bye . And all of the negative rhetoric which would have followed. Our big surprising upset of Pittsburgh on the road provides us some leeway.

3-3 is manageable. If you’d of told me 3-3 with our schedule heading into season , I’d of took it.

We need to be rooting hard for Balt today. A win by Ravens and we are still only 1 game back in division, assuming we lose of course. And if Egirls win only a half game behind them. I don’t give Browns much chance.

So all in all not a bad place to be . We still have both games left with Wash & Phil ( who doesn’t look daunting )and another game with NY. Also have Atlanta, Tampa and Carolina left. Cinn and SF which I had chalked as losses aren’t as worrisome as originally thought. Houston may be like a road game for us. Im not interesting in dissecting these just a broad speculation.

I see potentially 5 or 6 more wins . We should still be in playoff hunt and maybe division. 8-10 wins( yea 10 is probably a little option right now) keeps us alive .

Who knows . If we get everyone back healthy maybe we could make a run. Not that we’d do much in playoffs but better to have meaningful games than not. No reason to get down after a loss today. No shame in losing to better teams .
Nothing wrong with 4 and 2 either.

I can’t comprehend going into any game in the NFL just saying oh well it’s ok to lose.
I mean I get being grounded or as some will claim “realty based” but it’s football
It’s a game
Anything can happen
But if it makes anyone feel better to say they accept a loss before it’s even played - then cool

In fairness, this part of the schedule is rough, and I’m about convinced that anything can happen in this league.
And the defense is missing several players.

Healthy, .500 wouldn't be good, but as beat up as they are it's understandable. It does matter who is playing under those jerseys.

Being optimistic at 3-3 is how you feel after several years of finishing with 5 or less wins. This team has 12 wins several years in a row. Being happy with 3-3 is like getting excited at ordering Dominoes for pizza night.

Quit being complacent and accepting trash. Team is bad. Oline is basically non existent, qb1 has the IQ of a turnip, defense effectively doesn’t exist
Who said anything about accepting trash. Like we have any choice . It is what it is.
We didn’t lower the bar, our owner has.
