who emphatically make statements about...

Romo sucks as a QB?
Wade sucks as a coach?
The Cowboys can't replace T.O.'s production?
The Cowboys are a worse team w/o T.O.?

Do these people just quietly disappear into the shadows?
and then return at a later time trying to act like they never doubted?
or do they just immediately change their tone w/o acknowledging their stupid remarks?

I see some here make an "I was wrong" thread and good for them. But there have been alot more naysayers in the past 9 weeks than there are I-was-wrongers owning up to it now.

Not just here in the Zone but on TV and everywhere. Some of these people were really emphatic and combative with their statements. They need to eat it and eat it bigtime. I'm tired of the comments made so strongly without there ever being any accountability for it... that's why these comments are made to begin with. These people should be wearing a "scarlet letter" for the remainder of the season.

It's only week 10 and who knows what the Cowboys will be by season's end.
But Romo IS a top-knotch QB, no debate. Wade IS a hell of a coach and T.O.'s release IS an improvement to the team on all fronts and his production HAS been replaced entirely.

Its never as bad as people make it out to be and its never as good as people make it out to be either.

Dallas just needs to keep a level head and come out ready to collect another Win in Green Bay.

We'll lose another game at some point this year but we need to at least beat these next 3 opponents before we do.

Not all of us can be intelligent fans. It's a number game. To many fans. A portion of them are going to be idiots. It is much easier for simple minded folk to shout that the QB sucks, JJ sucks etc. as opposed to making a reasonable thought out point for a discussion.

It's going to take a whole lot more than beating the Eagles for me to change my tune about Wade.

..in my book, he still sucks. A lot of what we are seeing, I don't believe is Wade. I think it's the attitude that the players have taken on that is a big part of the change. I give Wade some credit for calling the defense, but our defense still isn't a stifling defense. It's only a good defense.

We aren't having nearly as many mental mistakes on defense like we were in the past

We just look very well prepared every week.

Wade is doing an excellent job right now with this defense and it looks like he is doing an excellent job with the overall team.

My guess is that they're balanced out by those folks who whistle a happy tune no matter what transpires on the field. The same ones who are MIA after a loss, or who suddenly grow a pair after a few wins.

Until this team wins in Dec/Jan and players become more disciplined, they get no credit for winning.

Eagles are not the Saints/Colts/Patriots. They are good, but we've proven we can beat them before. We won a regular season game, not the Super Bowl last night.

Wade Phillips is still not the answer as far as being a head coach.

They wrote the team off after week 4, some only come around now to throw the occational Romo sucks and fire all the coaches. :laugh2:

Wow Spectre, I could've sworn you were one of those naysayers in the past.

Nice post. :)

You mean you don't give them credit for winning. Winning now means alot because come december those teams who have not won much will be playing meaningless games in december.

It is still early and there will be times when they deserves some criticism. I don't see the team going the rest of the way undefeated so you can bet they will be back.

However for right now...

They get no credit for winning? That is a ridiculous statement. If they had lost to Philly last night, you'd be bashing the players, coaches and owner for not winning a "big game" on the road, but a win gets not credit. Really?

Add "Philly is going to blow us out Sunday night" to that list.

I'm not sure why some do this and pretend like they didn't. There's always a paper trail. A quick scan of the forum archives will always reveal who was responsible anyway.

No he isn't and you are doing a terrible job at being a negative Nancy! :yousuck:
