Things I'm sick of as a Cowboy fan

[madcow74]

Exactly, and it's like, at least we've had three years in a row of playoffs. I've never experienced that as a fan.

Just enjoy it man! Don't let all these home town haters worry you. Getting a playoff game is another weekend of fun if you think about it right

 

[MS17]

I understand how fans think regular season success (wins) suggests "a team's potential". I'm not sure.
I know he's reviled by some, but Bill Parcells said that "Potential means you haven't done anything yet." That's cold, Bill.

I know it's been mentioned here before.

There are only three teams that haven't made it to the NFCCG since the 1995 season, Dallas, Washington, and Detroit. That may get cut down to 2 this year. That is an elite group. What would be really cool is if somehow we play Detroit for the NFC Title, then it is Washington all by themselves

There are also 13 teams that have never won 1 Super Bowl. That is 57 years for most of them.

 

[TheCritic]

It sure appears it struck a nerve or you wouldn’t have bothered to respond, especially in the manner you did. Maybe you’re still bothered about me being 100% right about Deuce Vaughn. I took a number of fans lunch money winning that argument. Never seen so many fans end up dead wrong about a player.

No sir, I surrendered that argument a while back, you saw it and responded. But since you like to win arguments and call out people for not knowing enough about football, the right thing for you to do is evolve past self-declaration about your football expertise. No need to be defensive about it. If you are a football expert, why not help the rest of us know what your credentials are so other members aren't trolling you? That's all I meant.

I'm sick of Taylor Swift, my wife's chicken casserole, phone calls about my expiring car warranty, and the broken ice cream machine at McDonalds

 

[Brooksey]

Lets get straight to the point!!
1. Dak...sick of Dak playing scared. Not seeing the field. Double clutching the ball.

That double clutch move where he takes the sack makes me sick..if he would just get rid of it, he's the MVP and we're in the NFC Championship Game

You surrendered the argument weeks ago, but continue to come around every time I make a comment that hits home. No need to get upset every time I make a random comment about no one in particular. My credentials have nothing to do with football but I’ve been following the NFL for 50 years and my track record here speaks for itself. No need to make this about me. If my comments/opinions bother you put me on ignore.

I've seen so many qb's do that. It happens to everyone. Sometimes they have nowhere to go and take a hit. Sometimes they sneak out of it and make a play. It isn't just Dak

Lets get straight to the point!!
1. Dak...sick of Dak playing scared. Not seeing the field. Double clutching the ball.
2. McCarthy. sick of his in game decisions. His game management. His play calling. I never seen a play caller killing it then go away from the things he was calling that were killing it. Never seen a seasoned coach make so may errors during key stretches of a game. McCarthy goes from a race car driver to an old lady driving for no reason at all during games on the road.
3. Team.. sick of them not able to win and in some cases show up on the road. Sick of it when one guy goes down. Season over darn near. Sick of the whining about officials. They do SUCK! But you think getting on podcast or locker room crying going to make them want to throw the flag for you now??
4.Sick of Dan Quinn. He just can't make in game decisions either sometimes doing games. Can't come up with great blitzes when needed. Usually get his hat handed to him against good offensive coordinator's. Obviously can't get his team to play physical and attack on the road- especially. I mean how does Baltimore get physical players on defense every year? I've never seen a Baltimore team coached by Harbaugh not be physical on both sides of the ball.
5. Jerry goffy azz Jones!!! The worst friggin GM in football history for this length of time. I could answer my last question about being physical. Hard for a team to get physical practicing every year on a Bay Watch practice field. Sick of this clown not going all in to win a Championship in the last few years. Sick of him running his BIG azz mouth all the time versus doing something to make an impact during the season. I could go on but probably get banned if I really crank it up.
6. Will McClay.... Sick of him also. So overrated. Look at his misses in the first round-2nd round. Those are the main picks that's going to build your team the quickest. Oh...but I hit elsewhere. Yea..... but you missed or passed on great players. Watts to name one that sticks out. But maybe it's not you. Maybe Jerry just got you propped up and in the end Jerry pulls the strings on picks.
7. YouTube shows on the Cowboys. Make more excuses for the Cowboys then a parent with bad kids.
8. Sick of myself....from sticking with this team for so many years. When Jimmy left "for my own well being" I should of left also. But it's like a drug now. I'm a true addict when it comes to these clowns

So pretty much anything related to the Cowboys?

 

[ak47kaehu]

I'm just sick of losing

I can't speak for KJJ, but I was a college football head coach for 20 years.


OK, it was on PlayStation, but I was very, very good.

Hits home? Oh brother....you think your keyboard warrior schtick gets under my skin? LOL.

Like I said you wouldn’t have responded If it didn’t. Only you and one other fan responded.

I know he's reviled by some, but Bill Parcells said that "Potential means you haven't done anything yet." That's cold, Bill.

Sure, but it's at least a start. Not the finished product, but it's a start. It's consistency at least. Now if we can tweak things a bit to become less reliant on playing with a lead and being for physical, I think this team can take the next steps.

 

[cowboyed]

I don’t blame Dak or McCarthy. Big Mike is doing the best he can. Team will have 11/12 wins 3 years in a row. Not his fault the culture is toxic. Dak was a 4th rounder. Will be the best 4th round pick in team history. He is a good player. Not Mahomes but still good.

Switch the coach and the QB and the outcome is the same. The Jones family ruined the franchise.

I don't think Jerry and Stephen ruined the franchise. Under their purview the Cowboys have been one of the top regular season winningest teams in the NFL. That stated, post 90s, they have kept us mediocre based on post season results spanning nearly 30 years. Family football franchise owning can be a curse. I would be quite happy and hopeful if we went deeper in the playoffs this season.

I think #8 is the most relevant. Own your decisions or make different ones.

I’m sick to my stomach I clicked on this thread and read this drivel

I guess I just don’t get watching something that makes you unhappy

You're right about changes to the approach to take next steps.
I'm one of the fossils who recall the heartbreak in the 60's ("Next Years Champion..." and Ice Bowl, Cowboys were better than Green Bay), the glory in the 70's and succeeding teams. I'm so jaded I probably shouldn't be in this thread.
