What is it gonna take(this year)?

We need a wakeup call... maybe we need to get our ***** royally handed to ourselves... maybe all of this "we are in every game" is making us complacent

What will it take?

A buttwooping from the Broncos

more like a close loss, our team looks to comfortable right now, like they know they'll win if they just hang around, thats a dangerous place to be and I think the Broncos will scare us to say the least. I almost want us to lose this game just so our guys can remember how close every game has been. It'll bring them back down to earth and we'll get to see that fight for every yard team we saw in the first few weeks!!

I don't see complacency in the team. I see strong effort, but the execution is lacking sometimes. Losing Flozell for the season and Anthony for the last few games has hurt us. With Henry coming back the defense should be a little more consistent. The offense is going to struggle all year against most teams unless Tucker really steps it up.

What will it take ... to what ?

It is tough to win games in the NFL.

We have won 7 out of 10, and could have won a couple of the ones we lost.

If you think we are good enough to go out and win by 21 each week, take a closer look.

We play hard, we fight hard, and we always think we are gonna win the game.

I'm on board with that.

I agree with you. I felt we could have played better the last 2 games but this team continues to fight and do what they have to, to win games.

Why can't we just accept this is a team that is relying on a lot of young kids that are only going to get better in coming seasons. In other words enjoy the 7-3... we're fortunate in a lot of ways.

Yea a royal Butt Whoopin should do the trick.





And to be honest I think we deserve to get beat up....We're playing out of sync Football.

Hey WV :)

When we throw deep to Glenn and Price... it usually works... why not try it more... even if you dont connect, you still establish that you will try it... we are easily leaving ONE TD per game on the field... and that is a conservative number

we are Dallas Cowboys fans... we expect more, we expect domination. we are not typical fans.

We want it and we want it now.

Why not us? Why not us, NOW!?

Its just a matter of time before Bill takes down mousetraps and puts those signs up

I want to see us be aggressive but I don't want us to just throw balls up for grabs either and that is what you’re doing when the defense is protecting against the deep ball like Det. was doing yesterday.

Hey Doom

But that has not always been the case... we have had plenty of opps for long TD receptions and we havent take them. Its Drew Bledsoe in there not Quincy Carter.

btw - Not suggesting a jump ball.

I agree it is not always the case but I have seen several times Drew was looking deep and had to go else where with the ball. Being aggresive can be a good thing but being Smart will win you some football games. If you get the 1 on 1 matchup then take the shot.

It's a chess match, we want to go deep, the other teams wants to prevent us from going deep.

You have to pick when to take your shots.

I bet we looked to go deep against the Eagles more than once, but it worked late when we got Glenn behind the secondary and gave Bledsoe a little time.

Wasn't that a great throw ?

I agree. Everyone complains about the play calling, myself included at times, but Parcells has put this team in a position to win every game this year. Let this team get some legs under it. IF they do something spectacular this season imagine how much better this team could be next year. Nobody had the cowboys pegged to be sitting at 7-3 going into the annual Thanksgiving game.

When Glenn has man coverage with no safety over the top - THAT should be the first play.

Glenn is our Santana Moss. Who can outrun him?

I am not saying make it our only play. Obviously. Just try it. It works.
