Two teams with targets on them

[aikemirv]

It is the truth. Most teams don’t get to play all their games in front of national TV audiences. Teams like AZ are lucky if their games are even shown locally. So, when they get to play Dallas, players take it as a showcase game where they can get some attention and recognition. A great game against Dallas on national tv can build a players brand significantly and lead to interest from other teams when contracts time rolls around.

Dwight Clark and Odell Beckham would definitely agree. "The catch" was not any kind of special type of reception. He got about as high as a 6'4" white guy dunking a basketball. The play was made by Montana there!

Beckham - great reception - how many fewer times do you think you would have seen that replay if it was not against the Cowboys?

Every year there are two teams that always have a target on them. The defending Super Bowl champ, and the Dallas Cowboys. Every team that plays the defending Super Bowl champion will always be up for the game because they want to knock off the champ.

The same can be said for the Cowboys. The Cowboys will never get a break because every team wants to knock them off. To some teams knocking off the Cowboys is their Super Bowl. Is it safe to say that the Cowboys will always be at least one loss worse than their record indicates just because of who they are?

..thats the way it is. Any team that beats Dallas, gets the special asterisk* for the season ..lol..

please define good teams

A good team would be defined as a team with a winning record that’s in contention for the playoffs. The Cowboys have good teams most years. Most of the recent years they haven’t been good is when they lost their QB to injury.

We never get a break because of the intensity of our opponents.
We never get a break with scheduling.
We never get a break with officiating.
We never get a break with injury.
We never get a break because of ownership.
Nothing's easy in the NFL, and despite ownership it's time this team makes his own breaks. So tap the brakes on the breaks the Cowboys don't receive

for sure that's what it feels like

whether it's all true or not it definitely feels like
