Of course taking divisional games out of the equation...


Mine are at home vs St. Louis. Julius versus Steven Jackson has been debated to death. We get to see Mr. Jackson up close and personal. Head 2 Head, JJ vs SJ.

Home vs New England. Will we finally be able to hold Moss down? Has Mr. Newman grown up enough to finally hold his own against Randy. Will we finally put Ellis over Moss to rest. (i think we took ellis over him.)

Home vs New York J-E-T-S Jets, Jets, Jets. Big Bro vs Little Bro. Julius got the best of Thomas on Thanksgiving day 3 years ago. That was a long time ago when JJ was thought to be the future at RB. We'll see if Mangenius is still working his magic.


This is a great year to be a Cowboys fan living in DFW, we have some great home games to look forward to!

Without a doubt New England.

How you play the best is a true measuring stick.

At Chicago week 3 and NE at home week 6, are the two games that interest me most. The Jets on TDay should be intriguing if boths teams end up being the contenders everyone expects them to be and week 16 @ Carolina could be huge.

We played and beat the best team last year (Colts). Didn't really mean much in the long run though.

Indeed, thats why the game I'm most intrigued about is the Buffalo game. We will find out what this team is made of in a HOSTILE environment against a team that will be playing like it is the super bowl. I think we can learn a lot about our boys from that one

Sure it did. I can't help if you can't see why.

This statement is so incorrect...

:rolleyes:

I don't want your "help", nor did I ask for it. If the Cowboys don't win the Superbowl, I consider the season a failure.

I'm sure the victory was a great confidence builder for Romo, and the rest of the team. As I mentioned previously though, in the long run it meant nothing because we didn't even manage to win a playoff game. Do you think the Colts cared that they lost that game when they were holding the Lombardi trophy?

I'll be anxiously awaiting more of your baseless one line responses that indicate you have no idea what you're talking about.

Doesn't have anything to do with confidence...it's called evaluation on how your players respond to the best in the game, any idiot would know that.

While they say 'ignorance is bliss', (while I doubt you're that innocent) I won't be looking forward to anymore of your blissful posts.

I wouldn't be so quick to knock the Jets if I were you. Last year they had a better record than us and made the playoffs in a tougher conference.

What difference does it make how your players respond to the best, when they collapse in December every single year? Who cares about beating the best team in the league, when that team plays in another conference and we can't even win a playoff game (thus having no chance to play said team in the game that actually means something - The Superbowl)

Bottom line is this team hasn't responded to anything consistently for quite some time. If you want something to evaluate, try 9-7 in a watered down NFC, barely making the playoffs, and one and done by losing to a clearly inferior team in a wildcard game.

Minnesota in week 7.

1. It is the game after New England. The team will be pumped up for the Pats....Let's say we beat the Pats, it will be interesting to see if they have a let down in intensity with the Vikings.

2. This game is also the last game before the bye week. Will the team be looking for a letdown after the Pats and looking past the Vikings to the bye week and some much needed rest?

3. After the bye week they have 3 consecutive NFC East games. I am telling you, this Minnesota game has all the set up for an upset loss.

4. Brian Robison and Adrian Peterson. I am interested to see how well Robison will be playing. I hate Peterson, but will he be able to turn that offense around and help out QB Jackson.

5. Can we close the first half of the season (yes I know it is only 7 games, but close enough) with a win? Can we go into the bye week with some momentum?

Wish I could say the same.

About what I expected from you.

:rolleyes:

Oh now you've hurt me.

Coming from someone of your high esteem and wealth of knowledge.....wait a minute....I'm thinking of someone else.:lmao: Come back when you learn something about the game and aren't so blissful.

You've sure put a dagger in my heart as well, with your sharp and witty comments.

:jerk:

I can assure you my knowledge far exceeds yours, but that isn't saying much.

Fitting that you continually laugh at your own comments. I find that most people do that because nobody else does.
