CFZ This is the year

Wow the lengths some go to prop up the clown show.

Great coaches, Front Offices and the rest get it done. The clown show does not.

The Clown show is in great position this year to have their 3rd 12 win season in a row.

That was true for every team so I don't understand how you considered this some type of advantage for the Cowboys.

The Cowboys were an expansion team in 1960. Not only did they receive no additional draft capital like recent expansion teams, they did not even get to participate in that year's draft. They slowly built their team for 7 years before their first NFL championship game. During their 20 consecutive winning seasons, two different rival leagues formed that signed active Cowboys. The first one took Calvin Hill, Duane Thomas, Jean Fugett, and Danny White.

"Hostage" is a little too strong. The NFL didn't owe them the opportunity to play professional football. It's not a right.

Besides, there were several other minor leagues if they wanted to play somewhere else. However, they chose the NFL and those were the rules at the time. I'm not going to defend it, although I miss the enjoyment of knowing that player is one of my guys. These days, the guys I loved today may be the guys I hate tomorrow.

Of course, I don't mean real love/hate, only in the sense of rooting for them as a fan.

Landry won 2 Super Bowls in 29 years, that is true. He also won 5 conference championship games and took the team to the playoffs in 19 of those 29 years for a total of 36 playoff games.

Under the current rules we are doing pretty good today.

accepting less than the best is a sign of being a loser.

Tell me, what trophies do we win for multiple 12 win seasons?

Thats right, the NFL does not have participation trophies.

You and those like you enable Jethro to keep making money on an average product

Tom Landry and Hank Stram saw between 1966 and 1982 appearances in NFC (and NFL) Championship games FOURTEEN times.

in TWENTY SEVEN YEARS the clown show you love so much has not made it to a SINGLE ONE

It is really baffling ....... It makes me think that some of the Jerry defenders are Cowboy fans for like 5 years or something and have not had to endure these last 28 years

They are in good shape to make it to the NFC Championship this season and could win it. A failure to see this is just being blind and ignorant.

there are no trophies for 4th pace or 2nd place either. so Landry was a straight loser 2 to Jerrys 3 who had the cred , more drip= more success. if that the measurement Jerry wins. theres no 2nd pace Lombardi's..

sounds like unless your team wins it all you are going to stomp your feet like a little toddler and call all fanbases losers and clowns. Right.. thats a great attitude, being a giant DB.. id say more but id get benched, easier to chop off cancer and ignore your ridiculous take on sports.

It used to be that the run set up the passing game....in today's game, the passing game sets up the run. The more quality receivers you have, the fewer defenders in the box. No more smash mouth football. Clock and ball control would be nice.

The ultimate statement in professional football is still the successful goal line defense! That drive and focus has not yet changed...

as to agreeing with your premise offensively, I will further agree with style of play, but then will state that the Dallas offense has to instead implant it's own dominance in the Red Zone.

The Cowboys can then defeat San Francisco again and again become the real deal started in Dallas, and handle Kansas City.

Dallas has to again win every single game that it limits an opponent to just 19 points.

Invest in the offensive line again? You bet!!

0-4 in these..........oh Kellen your old bud will have to do you the favor of giving you guys at least 1 pick 6 and 2 int.....

Well i have to give you credit at least you are now calling Cowboys fans "You guys" baby steps to you finally shedding your Cowboys costume!!! We should take a forum poll on what team you are actually a fan of.

Even before the draft, I believe this is the year the Cowboys reach at least the NFC Championship game. The defense was already good and we resigned both Wilson and LVE and added Gilmore. Bland is going to be even better with another year under his belt. They‘ll probably add some help in the the draft. The offense is going to be better with Cooks and the release of Zeke. Loved Zeke, but he was a progress stopper and it was time for him to go. Hell, a 6th round RB could probably out produce Zeke sad to say. The only receiver the Cowboys had in 2022 was CeeDee and he was great. But there was no one else. Gallup was mentally hobbled coming off injury. Noah Brown? Give me a break. Shultz was solid but there are better TE’s to be had. The passing game suffered from only having 1 legitimate WR. The rest could not consistently get open.

But the BIGGEST reason I believe this is the year is MM. He finally jettisoned the anchor in KM. Moore is a young coach who was trying to build his resume. And he did so at the expense of the team. I’m sure he thought that having an explosive offense would help the team reach the SB. But it didn’t pan out that way because ball control in the NFL is more important than scoring 30 every game.

The Cowboys have finished 12-5 the last 2 years. Despite all the haters here, this team is on the cusp. You can hate on Dak, but he’s not the issue. When you only have 1 WR you’re going to struggle. When you don’t have a running game you’re going to struggle. When you’re defense can’t stop the run you’re going to struggle.

So like every year, yes every year, I predict this is the year for the Cowboys. Even before the draft I feel they’ve done enough. So you haters go ahead and crap on this thread. I’ll see you in January 2024.

Mickey Spagnola called. He and Jerald have some revisions...

the self loathing on here is pretty bad of late....its ok to be excited about how this team is positioned going into 2023 and its also ok to be mad at how 2022 ended....the future can be bright and the past can be dark....thats what a sunrise is...its a new day

not when we have reality (no offense to the actual poster reality) police here. "You are not exerting the correct amount of WAAAAAAAAAAAAA for my liking!"

WAAAAAA trademark to Cowpolk of course

 

[Captain-Crash]

is it the same guys who were crying and counting the season over when dak got hurt? Are those the guys you are talking about?

 

[LocoBates]

I don’t think you understand the difference between hating and hate. They’re not the same. This isn’t Websters dictionary. Get a clue.

now you are hating.. thanks for the example.
