The only fix is to cut the head off the snake. Unfortunately, he owns the team and his son is worse than him.
If Jerry were to sell you guys would finally see we have a soft defense that can't win real games. You'd finally blame the people on the field.

I think you blew it with your zero chance post. Between you and the plat guy karma has a way of getting you
mr Brax---the PLAT guy is about rah rah...nothing more...i even put disclaimer Reality does not want any nudging toward gambling....but today is far more than

losing a game....it was almost like they tried to take the fall...and we know that is not the deal even in these days of legal gambling....i put most on coaches ...they

must do more than X's and O's they must get their team fired up big time....Packers have been playing good as of late...so no resting on laurals....but it was like

they were almost dead coming out...aned of course bland holding receiver gave them new life for we had them stopped....but we should be seasoned to

overcome small stuff...even when we were down 14-0....we had tons of time and we can strike and score fast...and look when back against the wall and Packers

put back in their good players we were driving and scoring....we need a leadership that puts fear of failure in them week by week...not just when we are on the ropes

that is my two cents....plus i cut all heads off any more PLATS...i only do it for rah rah because it can get negative in here...but it aint worth it anymore

This team fooled me​


So you missed the previous 28 seasons?
he is a fan...fan's hope for the best...every year....no doubt next year many will hope cowboys turn a corner...but this loss is the kind where some fans give up

on teams....I hope Jerry can be real and tell fans ...he feels the worst amping the fans only to put out a product not even worthy of the off season leagues...but

gulping Johnnie Walker blue label on his super yacht no doubt settles down any harsh words or actions....he paid 140 million and team worth north of 8 billion

Jerry is always the winner based on that....and Jerry used the super bowls of 90s to tell fans were are close....only to have heart ripped out and stamped on

I was always so cautious when cheering for Dak and I never believed in him….. until this season. I finally thought this team was different and then……. Same ol cowboys. I’m going to take a step back from watching this team I think. This one feels different. It feels like this **** will never change
A leopard doesn't change their spots..............;)
Was and still is a MAJOR CHOKER who the rest of the team needs to carry to victory!!!!

I plan on doing the same. If anything, I’ve finally realized that the regular season absolutely does not matter with this team. #1 seed, #2 seed…doesn’t matter. Always ends the same.

With us having to go on the road as a wildcard I wasn't confident in how far this team would go. But after getting the 2nd seed this thing looked like it would be setup nicely for the Cowboys to have a rematch with the 49ers in the NFC championship. I wasn't as confident they would advance beyond that point, but hey that's why the games are played but this was as good of a chance as any.

The hole team blew it and was just under prepared. All playoff losses sting but this one feels a little worse coming off the highs of last week.
it broke my spirit....i am the rah rah PLAT guy....no more...one can only have heart ripped out so many times...its self preservation

And who is responsible for putting these players on the field. Hold it..........................trick question, right?
you're right. Jerry is at fault for having a soft back 7 defense that isn't war ready. Hope it changes soon.

The same holes that several folks mentioned reared their ugly heads. That o-line was mediocre and Dak was running around a lot. We had virtually no running game. The defense was an utter disappointment and Mike McCarthy simply can't get the team prepared when it matters. What we saw against the Cardinals was a foreshadowing of what's to come. The team isn't mentally prepared to stay disciplined to go deep in the playoffs.

I keep seeing this fallacy being bantered about but simply another Dak excuse

I'm watching the replay on NFL Network right now. 9:30 or so left in 2nd quarter

Dal has 56 yard rushing in 20 minutes of play to 28 rushing for GB and we're down 14-0. Because love came out throwing darts and Dak throws a pick on our 20


But we had some ground game going early (56 yards early 2nd quarter is on pace for about 150 or so for the game)

Once Dak threw the pick 6, any thoughts of establishing the run were gone

When you're down 27-0 In the 2nd quarter you're not going ground and pound

We had to abandon the run because Dak put us in a hole by gifting the Packers 14 points by mid 2nd quarter

It’s surprising to me how many people got fooled by this team.

Maybe with each passing year of failure we get more desperate to believe?
I think most of us knew better but since his issues are mental/ emotional there was hope for an eventual breakthrough... It's kinda crazy to witness the wheels fall off like that.
