Here you go with your dance. You said there is nothing wrong with 3-3.

Defend it. Don't dance. If there is nothing wrong with it, tell us why.

Tom Landry hated middle of the pack. Middle of the pack means you're drafting to low to get quality players you need to get better. And you're getting the players to keep you middle of the pack. According to Tom it's easier to go from worst to first than to go from middle of the pack to first.

I trust his opinion.

First of all any comparison of Landry to this joke of a franchise is a waste.

I get everything you’re saying but this is how far our beloved franchise has fallen this era.

You didn't get what he said. He said middle of the pack is not where you want to be. You say it's okay.

I agree with Landry which is 180 out of your nothing wrong with 3-3.

Don't bother responding. It will just be another of your dances that lead to 47 different tangents.

I'm done here. Enjoy your nothing wrong with 3-3. No habla nota else you say.

That’s fine but you obviously didn’t get my intent here.

You are responding to my title ( which intent is to draw you in) not my OP.

That’s very likely. Good news is we have Falcons following with a better opportunity to get back to .500
LOL what? Good news? Are you watching other games? The Falcons are a top-tier team in the NFC and MUCH better than us. Denial is not a river in Egypt.

LOL "no shame in losing to better teams". Except at least half the league is better. The team is getting definitively worse. We're not ascending like Washington. We're - at best - a mediocre team that is nothing resembling a contender, even if we back into the playoffs. There's nothing to be optimistic about regarding this team.

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 .
Where have you been? This team is garbage has been for years stop making excuses it's the same ol same ol.. nothing will ever change until a real owner takes charge

it doesn't matter the record right now, because there is NO WAY this roster and coaches as constructed right now are going on a playoff run... so we have a Dead. Coach. Walking. ...and a QB who's going to have a miserable offseason, as the pundits and fans rip him to pieces.

so whoever comes into coach after McCarthy is going to have a fragile team, as they will have to rebuild this team's psyche. and that ain't going to happen overnight.

3-3 isn’t all bad, they just need help stopping the run, throwing the ball, defending the pass and running the ball :muttley:

A lot of things wrong with 3-3 especially when you’re coming off a 38 point loss at home. Unfortunately, the Cowboys are everything we feared they would be this season. This is what you get when you sit around during the off-season and aren’t active and free agency. It was obvious to many of us this summer we had gotten worse. No way can you get better losing a bunch of players and not be active in free agency.

Honestly... right now, on paper, this feels like a 5-12 team at best.

BYE
@ SF
@ ATL
PHI
HOU
@ WAS
NYG* (Thanksgiving)
CIN
@ CAR
TB
@ PHI
WAS
Giants and Panthers are the only "locks" on the schedule................I see maybe 4 wins max on that list, and that is being generous...........so, 7-10 or 8-9 at best this year if I was betting money.

The pitt win keeps Dallas hopes alive. Tough games coming up they need to start finding ways to win.
Not really, two of our three wins are AFC....................we only have 1 NFC win and losses to both the Saints and Lions, which will kill us in tiebreakers for wildcard spot if we dont win the division.

Add the 49er game as a loss right now and that puts you at 1-3 in the NFC.................going to be almost impossible to get a wildcard without any tiebreakers, so it is division or bust this year.
