Today's game gives me no confidence this team can beat the niners on 10/8

Yep, they finally got the Brady monkey off their back. Forget about the fact they had to wait until he was pushing 46 years old and playing on the worst team in his entire career. But yes, they finally beat Brady. Golf clap for the entire franchise.
Beat me to it.
Im happy we won that game in my hometown..but....cant for the life of me figure out how it was a lifetime achievement.
Low bar?

I hope our team doesn't have your defeatist attitude. It doesn't belong in sports.

Losses happen man, ***. Everybody wants us to win every game every year. That's not possible. Losses are inevitable. It's what you do after a loss that says more about you than the actual loss itself.

Let's see how the team responds. Then maybe you can start crawling in a corner out of defeat.

We have no hope, they are better at pretty much every position group including coaching.

I was surprised the spread was so high over the cards but wasnt expecting them to lose the game.

The absolutism is so ridiculous. Nothing that happened against the Cards is relevant to the 9ers game. Teams just have stinkers sometimes, they aren't meaningful.

What happens if they do beat the 9ers?

All the 9ers have to do is give Run Cmac the rock and force Dak to throw like the Cards just did.

All the Iggles have to do is the same thing.

Guess why? We got a no trick pony QB and 1 of our turnover machines on defense is now out for the year. So this defense can’t take away and/or score like this overpaid/hyped leader on offense is used to so he can ride the bus.

Same 2 teams in the NFC that have been in our face for the last couple years booted us out of the bs dream the owner of the organization sells every year.

This is not an over reaction, this is the reality. Reality in the NFL is any team, especially at 0-2 is fighting for their hoping to not be 0-3 and usually abysmal life for that season.

The reality is the Dallas Cowboys are probably the 3rd or 4th best team in the NFC before Diggs blew out. The new reality is we may be the 6th or 7th best team in the NFC now. We’ll certainly find out after the Pats.

They will run right by our ends and secondary will take bad angles. We will have penalties on offense which stall our momentum. If we get to redzone the niners will force Dak to throw. Rinse Repeat rest of season.
FYI....Eagle boards are East from here. ;)...

Maybe they will prove us wrong but I doubt it the way the Cardinals offense moved the ball today. And we all know if u can't score in the redzone vs the Niners you will lose the game. I was actually pumped up for Oct 8th and now I just can't get excited for that game anymore. Dak showed us today he still cant be trusted when the defense and special teams is not scoring TD's. What reason do we have to believe that things will be different vs the niners?
And based off the way we looked the first two weeks, the Cardinals game Sunday didnt look like a game this team was remotely capable of losing. Moral of the story: its a week to week league and no team is invincible. Anything can happen any given sunday, and we've now seen 2 games where we look like the best team in the league and one where we looked like quite possibly one of the worst in the league.

No way they beat the 49ers on the road at their house.

They won’t because the 9ers want to make sure they have the best record going into the playoffs, something this team could have had but never seems to do the last several years.

Also 9ers are undefeated since they traded for CMac. They also beat us in the playoffs 2 years in a row with 2 different QBs. We still have the same hype/loser with no arm or even legs now.

Sorry, but at this point we’re a playoff contender. The 9ers are a championship contender and I love our team to death, just not the bs front office. That is the biggest reason we haven’t done squat in over a quarter century.

This isn’t a 1 game thing, this is a quarter century + thing and that’s the 1 remaining consistent variable in that time.

McCarthy is good, Dak is not the guy he picked. 1 of the last left over Garrett guys. The main and highest paid 1 on the team too.

Not all losses are the same.

A close loss to the 49ers, Eagles or Chiefs is one thing.

Yesterday was an abomination

The reality is that the Cowboys are inconsistent. Sure, after yesterday, seems impossible we would beat the 49ers. But watch, we could end up winning and beating the Dolphins as well.............. and then feel ourselves going into the playoffs only to drop a WC round game to an inferior opponent in our own building.

That's the Cowboys.

You don't say?
I am making plans for the SB after that demonstration of top flight football!
Sure the Cowboys will be there!
