Which suburb did you move from?

Funny thing is, alot of people are starting to move back to Dallas as there a huge revitalization of the city downtown...building condos and hotels everywhere.

Yeah, I just wish all of our stadiums were Downtown too, it would make a better atmosphere.

I use to live in Carrolton in my younger days, right behind Rosemead Rec...

Hmmm, interesting.

Perhaps our decline over the last 6 weeks was more than a product of playing better teams (4 playoff teams, Chiefs (10-6) and the Rams) and the insertion of an additional turnstile at tackle (Tucker to go with Pettiti). Perhaps...

I don't see what this has to do with how Miami closed. Is the point that some teams finished stronger? Or is Miami supposed to be some kind of embarrassment?

It seems like a knee-jerk attempt to 'prove' we significantly underachieved.

While I'm as disappointed as anyone that we didn't make the playoffs, and went absolutely flat vs Rams, I think the 'Cowboys have a major weakness' handwriting was clearly on the wall back in November. Our OL was simply not playoff caliber and that was painfully obvious to anyone with the objectivity to see it IMO. I held out hope like many of you that that group could somehow pull together in the latter weeks but I frankly did not expect it.

I'm not ticked that we didn't make the playoffs. I'm seriously disappointed in the OL talent that Parcells has procured thus far and will be even moreso if he doesn't get this unit significantly improved for 06.

But I think our late season collapse was more about good teams exploiting our obvious weaknesses than anything else.

You make too much sense Coco2.

But we WERE one of those good teams.

You have your opinion, I have mine. I can't submit that the Cowboys didn't deserve the playoffs at 7-3 after finding ways to win against some very good teams. That 21-20 win against the Eagles at *basically* full strength, the season opener, the 49ers game... this team was in the top 5 of ESPN's power rankings after week 11.

I think the late-season collapse had more to do with the Cowboys not exploiting other team's weaknesses than anything else. I refuse to believe that going 2-4 over the last six games of the season was merely because of the teams we played.

Yep, I work right across the street from the AAC.

I know where Marsh and Frankford is, use to work over there off of Dallas Parkway before I got this gig.

Cowboys final record: 9-7
Fins final record: 9-7

:bang2:

And the Fins did it with a journeyman QB(they're still gonna have issues with this in the offseason) + a coach who said some demoralizing things about his team before this broo-ha-ha started.
