This team is Soft? Lacks Heart?

[Bizwah]

The defense played well...but it was Washington.

This is a team that's struggled offensively lately. They were nearly blanked vs Pitt....Cleveland had them shut down for a bit....

It's a promising win....but like many have said. I can remember well the past few seasons. Last year notwithstanding, we'll have a HUGE win follwed by a stinker.

Next week is our biggest game of the year. We have to keep looking at it that way.

 

[RCowboyFan]

When your back are against the wall, you fight hard.

Yeah, and they need to do that every game here onwards. It almost seems like they need to win 11 to make playoffs. So very little margin of error.

 

[Ren]

They played hard today but it was a close game i wanna see them not quit when things start going against them before i start praising them for their hart

 

[Bach]

That's fair.

I'm just glad to see them turn it on and step up in the 4th and get the win. Big difference between this and what we did the first meeting against them and AZ.

But at least now they've given themselves a chance the rest of the season. Just have to get by the next two weeks and see what we have come December.

Losing to the Giants had nothing to do with lacking any type of intangibles, it had everything to do with costly turnovers and idiocy at the QB position.

ok, we laid an egg

can I have a stretch of good play define the Cowboy's heart?

 

[DR.WARE]

lacking heart? give me a break everyone was jumping up and down when they got that last first down. This team wanted to win and they showed it.

 

[ZB9]

they damn sure werent soft tonight. That is for sure.

Hopefully, the team that showed up against the Giants is done and they will be the Cowboys we saw tonight.

Exactly why I said don't overreact. Nope, don't feel foolish at all. Its the overreaction are us, like you, who will look foolish if you keep reacting to every win. I didn't do that post because of Giants loss. I posted that after watching the team since last Skins game.

Again, enjoy the win. I did. Wish they play every game like this. Thats the point. If they play every game, with the same intensity here on out, then yeah, they will prove doubters like me wrong.

If this team lacked heart they wouldn't have pulled out this game.

Don't react after a game? what the hell does that mean?


I'm not saying we're super-bowl bound or anything, just that those who acused this team of being gutless and wilts in the face of adversity EVERY TIME were proven wrong.

 

[Dave_in-NC]

They had players come back from injury, that's a high.
Let's see what they do when that settles in.
I have been whining for weeks, I do like what I watched tonight.
I'm still not convinced that it will last.

 

[Hoofbite]

Tampa Philly and Green Bay, playoff contenders all.

St. Louis and New York.


One sucks and the other is the defending champs. Both blew Dallas out.


Besides. Heart isn't measured in scores.

So you're basically just thumping your chest and pointing your finger?


Congratulations.

If we beat the Niners and Seahawks, that puts us in a good position going into December.

With games vs Pittsburgh, Gints Ravens and Eagles, we'll need it

I'd imagine the experience from this game will help us going forward.

Go to a mirror. See something? Thats it.

I said Overreact, not react. Reading is not an art....

 

[Eskimo]

we always cowboyup, and then get knocked right back down the next week

I remember beating all these good teams in '06, and then we would lose to bad ones

we had a statement game against TB, and lay an egg against New York

We had no shot against NY with BJ at QB. I think we were beat that day before the opening KO. Having Romo back gave us confidence that we were sorely lacking.

 

[superpunk]

They definitely showed alot of heart tonight. No reason to knock that.

 

[JakeCamp12]

Let's see them get that type of intensity for next week, then the week after and then for Pittsburgh...that shows heart to get up week after week knowing a loss can knock your playoff hopes out....

 

[windward]

So you're basically just thumping your chest and pointing your finger?


Congratulations.

Nope, just happy we won.


But you seem a little defensive, no?

 

[Bob Sacamano]

the whole team still played like ****

Ok that was good.
