These playoffs have shown the Cowboys are not close to contenders

That's because he's on a team that's well coached. Stafford sucked w/Detroit. If Rams make SB they'll have done so with two different quarterbacks in a 4 year time span.

Hell, Montana at center couldn't take Dallas any further. Joe would laugh at Moore's playbook & MM's clock management lol.
Stafford did not suck in Detroit. He put up some gaudy numbers. Torched the Cowboys on many a Sunday.

The remaining teams and compare them to Dallas.
-Better QBs except for Jimmy G
-Better recievers: Kupp, Diggs, Hill, Kelce, Deebo, Kittle, Chase >>>>>>>>>>>> CD Lamb, Amari
-Better RB: Mixon, Akers, Deebo, Singletary >>>>>>>> Zeke
-Better coaching: McDermott, McVay, Shanny, Taylor, Reid >>>>> Fat Mike
There is absolutely nothing that the Cowboys have over any of the remaining teams: Bills, Chiefs, 49ers, Rams, Bengals.
Nothing
Hard to say “not even close” when the team that beat us by 6 points, on a day when we are griping about the whole team underperforming, went on to beat the #1 seed and is playing in the NFC title game. Just because they choked with poor play and insane penalties in round 1, doesn’t mean we are not even close. I think we would have to take a total beat down like the Eagles and Patriots to say we aren’t even close.

Right

This notion Stafford suked at Detroit is typical ignorance . He’s the reason they had any good years at all. The difference now is being on a better team.

He just needed a better team like Jim Plunkett and Steve Young for example.

I recall in the 2014 wildcard game at AT&T Stafford and his Lions jumped out to a 14-0 lead in the 1st quarter, and were still ahead of the Cowboys at the start of the 4th.
