The close games are a result of parity rules implemented in the mid 1990's that make it near impossible for teams to pool too much talent. Landry's and Johnson's cowboys did not have to contend with salary caps and free agency. The parity rules have delivered with the exception of the Brady anomaly. Its kinda like NASCAR now with everyone having to race basically the same machine.....so, the teams that excel have the best GM's who figure out ways to give their franchise an edge. Its got nothing to do with gambling.
There is no way 32 different organizations- with 32 different philosophies- are so evenly matched.
Parody, not parity.
We see it very clearly when officials interfere with an ending and when so-called professional players whiff on an easy tackle.

Stop wishing for the real Dallas Cowboys to come to life; they are gone.
This new franchise, this circus, is what Jerry Jones has created.
And this is as good as it gets.
This is what a perennial 8-8 team looks like. Except for playing weak teams and getting help from the officials (see the Detroit game last year- and more like it), these Cowboys are astoundingly mediocre. Not because they lack talent, but because they lack the leadership needed to be better.
Accept it and move on. The Cowboys of the past are gone.
By the way: it was another "miraculous" last second drive in prime time that put the Falcons over the Eagles. Isn't it peculiar how so many primetime games are decided by one score in the final seconds- no matter what teams face each other?
How'd you like the Chiefs/Bengals game? The Chiefs "miraculously" overcame a 4th and 16 to beat the Bengals at the end, keeping Taylor Swift happy and preserving more publicity for the NFL with pics of her cheering from the box.
Wow.
So, it's not your circus? It's ours? Sounds about right.

My mind is twisted? This is coming from someone who claimed the NFL is rigged and the Chiefs won the Super Bowl because of Taylor Swift. :laugh: :laugh: Care to deny any of that?
You see what you want to see.

So you’re blind by choice? Do you still believe the Chiefs won the Super Bowl because of Taylor Swift?

What a surprise!
Calling on the mods for help to silence what you don't want to hear.
Sad.

My recommendation is not for me, it’s a favor to you. You’re done with this team, so be “done” with it.
You see, in reality, you’re butt hurt about a loss. Come Sunday, you’ll be suckling at Jerry’s teet, rooting on The Boy’s, like you have every other week.

6 times in the redzone...0 touchdowns...That's on Dak and McCarthy. Defense gets stone walled again in Dallas. That's more on the players IMHO than Zimmer. Zimmer can't go out there and make them physical. Same problems -new year.. McCarthy needs to be gone after this season if this continues...As do a lot of heartless players...

I don't think you understand me at all.
I've been a fan for about fifty years, but thirteen years of Jason Garrett and then Dak(Garrett 2.0) showed me that Jerry didn't care about the fans.
Therefore I no longer care about this new franchise.

How are they imploding? They’re 1-1 and tied for 1st in the NFC East.
You might have missed our defense vs the Saints as well as the Packers playoff loss where our defense gave up like six straight TD drives to open the game, both home games. Other than that, we are in the driver's seat for a historically bad run defense and we don't even have any injuries on that side of the ball yet except Bland who doesn't play in the trenches. Just sayin ...

a reality that nobody wants to see, it's the same movie year after year, in one game they show good things, and the second they lose badly, and so, Dak-ancer's contract is and will be the worst move the Jones have ever made, we see teams for example Las Vegas win with Minshew, the Steelers with Fields, the Bucs win with Mayfield, the Packers win with Willis, the Vikings win with Darnold, Atlanta win with Cousins and the Saints humiliating Dallas with Carr, with QBs who were rejected by other teams, and with a much lower salary than Dak-ancer's, but we see the Joneses and the fans clinging to an average QB, arguing, there is no QB, where are we going to get a QB if Dak-ancer is not there? a real loser mentality. At 33 Carr has much better mobility than Dak-ancer has ever had, Dak-ancer lovers and the Joneses have been left with an outdated mentality, today QBs have to have an optional, slow and immobile QBs are no longer profitable, unless you are a Brady or Rodgers, if the Dallas defense falls there is a high probability that Dallas will lose, and this is where you see the ability that the QB must have to carry the team, something that Dak-ancer does not have, he has no capacity to respond, he does not scare anyone, and that a 60M QB must have, a shame to see Dallas in this situation, and now tied up for another 4 years, where they will not achieve anything, while other teams are on the rise Dallas is in limbo and with the hope of only winning games, but with a precariousness in all areas, a team without dynamism, outdated and inconstant.

We didn't get help from the officials vs Detroit. They tried some nonsense circumventing of the rules and it didn't work. Then they forced the issue. It's all on them.

It's end of the Cowboys, it's all over, knees Jerry reaction after a loss. It's what some people on this board look forward to....for Cowboys to lose and then they post incessantly
