We were every bit as unlucky last week.
Not feeling you, RM

When you score 14 points in two games, your offense is lucky not to be 0-2.

Worst team in the NFL wouldn't have the #1 pass defense...injuries along the OL have killed the Skins offense which wasn't very good to begin with, but at this point, they can't afford to even try to throw deep to Moss without protection.

I know its important for some of you to think that you beat an NFL caliber team today. However you didn't.

This Commanders team is the worst in the past 2 decades, and there have been some bad Commanders teams.

And by far the worst team in the NFL this season. Unable to get inside the 20 yard line, no pass protection, most unclutch D of all time.

You don't care that we should have lost to the woeful Commanders at home? We didn't deserve to win that game at all. Neither did the Redstinks, but we sure didn't.

Romo was terrible, Roy Williams was terrible, more costly turnovers and penalities and Garrett with some amazingly bad play calling. Romo has been been missing high all season, yet nobody knows how to correct it. Our 3rd and long defense has been terrible all year and nobody knows how to fix it. Now Folk sucks too. If I were you, I'd care.........

Anyone remember those 3 straight 5-11 seasons? We had a pretty good defense and awful offense, so some very good teams won a lot of 13-10 games against us. They should have killed us, but our defense was good enough that we seldom were beaten badly by anyone, but I got to where I hated the freakin' 13-10 score.

The team has plenty to improve on, and they didn't play well on offense at all.

But I refuse to make myself miserable all week complaining about a 4th quarter comeback win against the Skins.

We're 7-3, in first place for another week, and every ugly win is a win towards a wild card birth if we don't hold on to the division title. The Cowboys are NOT a SB team unless they get on a big roll at the right time, so enjoy every freakin' win. There are still going to be enough losses to pick apart this season.

I guess being angry over how you won beats the heck out of laughing at how much you suck.

Must be terrible to be a skins fan.

it makes me angry seeing one of my favorite players being stuck in burgundy and yellow. i hope Orakpo can break free of Napoleans chains and find his way to a better team soon.

If anything, I am glad to have seen a couple playoff wins since the first Clinton term

Other then that, it gives me an avenue to express outrage at the worst owner in pro sports.

Besides the Commanders, my life is pretty damn good professionally and personally , I can't complain. So the Commanders gives me something to ***** about :laugh2:

Brian Orakpo is a Commanders lifer :)

You may as well get used to that.

All valid complaints...enjoy them...bite your nails and look into the future at what seems to be inevitable...be miserable all week about the way we played and dread the next game.

Been there...done that...thank goodness the players don't look at it that way. I like Brookings attitude after the KC game...wins are hard to come by, and that's all they care about. They'll try to be better next week, but they deserve to hoop and hollar and enjoy the victory.

I choose to enjoy the victory and enjoy being in first place. Like all Cowboys fans, I've waited along time for this...I refuse to feel bad about my first place team.

Go Cowboys:bow:

I care but I'm more of a "means to the end" type of guy.

Glossing over dog **** play isn't something I do when the final score is favorable.

Could not agree more....
Bottom line is 7-3.
Looking forward to Turkey day.

No one is a SB team right now. Did you think Arizona was a SB at this point or the Steelers were last year at this time.

Um no. As much as I hate the Deadskins, there are much worse teams this year.

Agreed.

The reason why people get so angry when they see the Cowboys struggle like this is because they overrate the Cowboys, underrate the opposition or start believing that just because a team is sub .500, that they cannot pose a threat.

We are in control of our own destiny at this point and now it is on the Cowboys to keep it that way.

Honestly, I don't think people realize just how good the Green Bay and Commanders Defense is.

Hey man, I hear you and feel your pain...

You'd better hope my secret Skins fantasy doesn't come true. I'm dreaming that Snyder gets a top 5 pick and uses it on a QB who will turn his team around...then selects Tim Tebow....I shouldn't be so cruel, but I would laugh and laugh at that scenario.:lmao2:

I CARE!!!!! Nice they beat the skins...fantastic...thrilling goes in the win column. Now tell me,is this team a playoff team as is..the way they are playing??? More importantly are they going to win a freaking playoff game the way they are playing on offense. That is my concern right now. Offense is lost out there.!!!!!!

Yes, if the Playoffs started today, they would be in.

That is all.

No, that is not all.

They would be in but they would quickly be embarrassed and sent home.

The offense is playing like **** right now. You don't win playoff games with 7 points and multiple turnovers.
