Some good consistent teams may stop the Cowboys for making the superbowl. Not a team that decides every once in a while that they want to play football on certain date.

What’s stopping us? Seriously? We just out coached an 8-7 team, we destroyed the Rams. Garrett just took McVay to school and people are still complaining. Super Bowls don’t come cheap, what more do you want?
I think we could be the best team in football. I think this team last year was the youngest starting team in the league. And we went to the second round of the playoffs. This team is still young I think this confidence from yesterday is going to carry through. I was one of the very few that knew we would destroy the Rams yesterday. We do the same to the Eagles I’m a believer

Consistent in the NFL. There’s no such thing it’s not built that way. I have confidence

That's it, I'm sold!

Sign Garrett to a 5-year extension!!.....please...
You win and you lose as a team my cowboy brother. Jason Garrett is not the only issue. Although people would like to think so.

The only thing that can stop the Cowboys is the Cowboys.

I don’t have a good response for this. I don’t think he disastrous as people want him to be.He’s that great either. It’s confusing. I don’t know what to expect and I guess that’s the bottom line

Dak's inconsistencies/lack of mobility, stupid playcalls (for example 3 straight passes after Lee's pick, especially when the pass game is struggling only to be saved by a defensive penalty and then some run plays), stupid awareness of game situations (us fans saw the onside kick before it happened, apparently it was a surprise for the coaches), stubbornness of not sitting or cutting underperforming players (the biggest example is Maher and why it took so long to sign someone else. I expect Forbath to play like Bailey. For those that don't know Forbath was on this team with Bailey before as both were regarded as the most accurate kickers coming out). And missed tackles, those will kill a defense and the only ones I can remember are when they scored their second TD with Gurley.

I am very serious here.

The only thing stopping us from a Super Bowl are four teams: the E-girls and three teams in the playoffs. As goofy as it sounds, ANY team can get hot---this happened with one of Landry's Wild Card teams in the 1970s that really did not have as much talent as the teams they beat. It only takes a win over the E-girls and three straight. Yes, it can be done. I don't know if this team can do it, but much stranger things have happened in sports.

Nah. It's reality. As critical as coaches are, there are times when teams just catch fire. The freakin' NYG with Kerry Collins at QB. The Raiders with Rich Gannon at QB. Even when teams' talent levels are sub-part (and, for the most part, Dallas has the talent), there is a magic that occurs when a whole team just believes that it's their time. Even a bad coach can't interfere with that.

Let’s just enjoy this win tonight. Our boys played pretty freaking well. If we win next week, we can talk about our “Super Bowl odds”.
You arent allowed to speak. Sorry. Your constant negativity and saying we will lose out, bulljive needs to take some time and lick your wounds.

I’m in the group that thought we would beat the Rams but I also realize they were only two games better than us. Eagles are currently a bottom 5 team, we could trot out our back ups and beat them.
