Seems like a lost cause being initiated here.
Like Mr. Lion stated above me, we were essentially “rewarded” for playing the current toughest team in the NFL with a backup QB. It means nothing and we should really be ranked lower.
In addition to that, any Cowboys fan knows that this team falters under the hype and bright lights. The higher ranked we are, the harder the fall when we fail. They are purposely doing this so we lose and fail. So we can be mocked to a high degree when we fall to the deepest depths of despair from the highest heights of success.
This team in the top 5 is borderline ridiculous when you have teams like Eagles, Bills, Chiefs, Vikings, and even the Giants (who I know we beat, yes, but they have looked more solid as of late), and even the Jets and Patriots who have become alive with QB switches. Top 10 is more commendable at this point in the season with Dak coming back as a huge wildcard we are not being truthful about.
A modern day tragedy could be synonymous with this team at this point.
