I don't know how many years and times you have to be kicked in the head before you realize our GM hires yes men and not head coaches.?
We have as much talent as anyone in the league , minus maybe a position. Yet we fold time after time, year after year.
Why?
Then you must be insane. You keep coming back for more.

Haters and Homers are incorrect descriptions .

I’m a critical fan but I’d consider myself a Cowboys Homer . I call out the Cowboys issues constantly but I root them on . I haven’t missed a Cowboy game in 60 years. Not sure how anyone could be a bigger Diehard .

Both of these descriptions have become monikers for fans simply wanting to discredit fans personally because they don’t like the message. And out of frustration as the argument exhaust start calling out names and insults .

There are all types of fans . And I know many Cowboy fans here locally personally who are much more full glasses fans . They choose to be more positive and aren’t looking for critique . And that’s fine .

Haters can be anyone who chronically complains or calls out certain aspects or individuals with a negative outlook. Homers can be anyone who follows along with blinders on mostly with a positive outlook. Both are a lazy description in an attempt to dismiss or discredit their views.

Yes, fandom is about rooting for your team. I’ve always used attending a game as a good analogy. As we see so many different types of fans and how they conduct and express their fandom . Some cheer all the way and some hiss and moan even booing at times .

There is no one glove that fits all. Everyone is entitled to express themselves as they choose. In my 4 decades as a season ticket holder I had to have more Cowboy fans removed than opposing fans. Some fans just can’t handle the criticism.
Ok. But by definition of what a fan is can we determine that one is a better fan?

From the offense, defense, special teams and coaching staff. Too many penalties that stalled drives or kept Buffalo drives going. Defense couldn’t stop the run and the offense sucked all around. Give credit to Buffalo. They probably played their best game of the year. We get every teams best.

BUT, the seasons not even close to being over. Quinn needs to figure out how to stop the run with what he’s got and MM needs to figure out how to beat that kind of defensive scheme because I’m sure they’ll see more of it.

So let the haters celebrate and do their gloating. They‘re quitters and/or bandwagon fans. I’m still a believer and looking forward to see how the team handles this set back.

:starspin:
Eagles troll.

Cinnci fans with paper bags were not real fans?
They were historically bad at that time. They were also at the game so that was a visible form of protest.

I didn’t mention anything about real fans. That was you reading something in that wasn’t said or thought.

It’s nice to see he can provide some critical analysis. But there’s no need to call out fans . It doesn’t strengthen the argument.

Both extremes on this site ( homers and haters) are a problem. Most fans are more in the middle.

The Cowboys to some fans are like a problem child or loved one who will need to see much more evidence and or results before totally believing they have totally turned the corner. It been almost 3 decades. Hard to blame them.

Fans don’t have to believe to root them on . They can retain a glimmer of hope while remaining doubtful and critical .

And some fans should take the advice of coaches blocking out or ignoring the noise. This entire attack by both extremes is merely an attempt to discredit them personally cause their rebuttals to the argument are exhausted.

Oh i dunno....maybe you trying to define hater?

Who gets to decide "overly"? Or how "epically" bad a team is? All very subjective and i think we all should just stop it.

Am I wrong?
Dead wrong. Every year it’s a different team, different coaches. You can quit and give up. Many here have but don’t expect not to get called out for repeatedly coming here and constantly posting negativety.

no one is hoping, we just understand the facts. some live in a "pretend" world and others accept what the facts are. The Cowboys dont build for the SB, end of conversation.
Your observation is even smaller for comparisons...and nothing ever beyond an insult and pessimism. This group of Cowboys are fully in the picture and as a team is stronger than the Eagles now...

Now explain two changes at defensive coordinator to date and having to remake 3rd down offense and their entire defensive make-up here and now.

Dallas had what, 5 game streak and a single set back against Buffalo. The Cowboys will be ready for Miami. No penalties and this team handles them.

Come on, man, let's leave Rockport alone. The guy is a legend in his own mind.
None of you 'big three' really prove a functional element beyond insulting, but piling on is just a red flag affair here.

:clap: :thumbdown:

Missiletoe and presents under the tree and you bravehearts jump on a single poster with no football...as you have all off season to right here. Go hit the wife! 'brave guys.'

:popcorn: I can't wait to take on Miami!!:starspin:...was blind, but now, I see.

He served, and I have been rooting since the Cowboys were born. Better change the insult now...

I speak for no one but myself.

Very telling that you say nothing to rocky for his rude behavior, but admonish the people HE is insulting.
