Dallas is not running the table. The team hasn't even played together this year. Panthers, Commanders x2, bills in weather, packers, jets, dolphins, no way they run the table.


Nope. They arent. Dez and Romo can "talk" all they want about SBs and running the East. They are good. But they aint that good. Well most likely lose 3 down the stretch. GB/Wash.... NY CAROLINA Miami.......


its a bad bad year fellas.....

here is a prediction. We lose to Seattle and Philly. Probably Miami, GB and Jets.

thats 7-9. I think thats right about where we will be.

But hey, Romo tells Brady see you in the SB. That was really brave of him. ANd Dez still wears the "We run the East" shirt....

Okay guys, okay..............

lets just go ahead and put Carolina as a loss too.

6-10. Well be lucky if it aint worse.

I just have a tough time getting excited about bluster and false bravado at a time like this. It is almost like they honestly feel that even if Romo weren't hurt that they would be ruling the NFL. There are a lot of issues on this team, from coaching on down to the players not playing smart to talk like this.

You dont hear Tom Brady telling players see you in the Super Bowl. Becuase he knows how GD Hard it is to get there!

They ate the cheese last year and they are all walking around thinking they are a good football team.

They arent. Doesnt matter how much Dez says it and thinks it. But hey, he has great passion!!! Same with Hardy. Who cares about your ranting and raving? All of them, need to just shut up!!!

How about that guys. How about SHUT UP and just play football.....?? Your a 2-4 team that is lucky to have 2 wins!! All of them look like iditiots talking about what they are "going" to do. Talk is cheap. real, real cheap.

Right now I would have to say 7-9 is our ceiling. Romo is great and is the only reason we have not been a 4-12 team most of the past 5-6 years. However, we are not going to win every game when he gets back. The schedule is brutal and he is going to be extremely rusty. This team has blown the season by losing to Atlanta, New Orleans, and N.Y. All were games we should've won, but choked away. End of season.

this happens every week. "come on guys, we just need to win next week" we are so steeped in mediocrity we just fool ourselves because its easier to accept fooling ourselves instead of reality.

Lets fact the facts that uncle Shiningstar reminding some people. Last nights loss sealed the coffin. accept it. Losing to the Saints, told the Giants, "the cowboys have no will" and thats why Coughlin stole Garretts lunch and ate it in front of him.

WE got out played, out coached, out game planned and simply out done. We lost on each phase of the game, and that takes skill. We continue to keep a flailing ST coach *which many here thought we were losing his first year*. We continue to not game plan for the QB that we are using. Last night wasnt bad and i expected 1 interception, keep in mind before people got to the stats, Cassel threw more the Giants were nice enough to NOT catch them. Stats wont tell you that.

Our overpayed players did nothing. a few scrubs decided to take the night off. our so called best weapon did ok. I dont know what happened to Lee. I cant remember Tyrone did something hes payed to do. To this day i dont know why Church is on the team. Carr still sucks. Our rookie is doing good. The running back fans didnt have confidence in ran well last night.

Now lets talk about the injuries. I was told Garrett cant do anyhting with all the injuries we had at that poiint. Than 2 players came back. We still lost. So today i know it wasnt just the injuries. Im going to be told, every coach needs an all pro QB and a ll pro WR to coach. Wrong. Our coach just isnt what people think. I didnt do it, i didnt make that happen, but thats what he proved last night. Im sure other excuses will sprout up but the evidence on the field and the season record will validate my opinion.


Cassel kept us in the game. We just need to accept him as the QB he is and not the QB we are used to.

Why do so many people think our season is done? We are now 2-1 in the division, our o line looks like it finally got its act together and our running game is where it should be. Thr eagles lost last night, and on top of that lost Jason Peters. So literally right now we have every opportunity to win a couple games, get Romo and Dez back and run the table. Everyone needs to relax, take a breath and be positive.

With the way we've been playing, it's hard to see us beating anyone until Romo shows up.

Don't have a ton of hope with what we've seen over the last few weeks.

The frustrating part is that we did pretty much everything we could to lose 3 out of the 4 games, all of which were winnable.

The only chance for the Cowboys now is that the Philly game is a must win. The Giants could possibly lose the next 5 games.

What does bandwagon have to do with being concerned about a 4 game losing streak, not just a 4 game streak, but a poorly played one?
Fans have a right to be concerned... everyone wants a win...

man this whole "eating crow", "bandwagon", "doom & gloom", "Ill show you" mentality is just silly...

we need a win, & time is running out.

And we will get that win, most fans are in a state of panic there is alot of football left and the rest of the nfc east is no better than us.

I had thought 3 of the last 4 games we had hope of winning. we didn't. We had the chances to win, they were within reach of winning. And even the 1st half of the NE game it was there, though with Brady, not a reality.
And every game this team could not get it one. As been said, it has not played as a team, not one decent game where things went well. Even coaching and play calling.
I was surprised to see Whitehead more involved, and it was good. But then other parts of the team was it's usual bad. McFadden showed why he should start, Cassel actually played well, except for the picks, but were they all his fault? Defense, some think played well, I did not, still give up too many big plays, penalties on 3rd downs. No pressure against supposed poor line. Yes a few sacks, a hurry here and there. But nothing game changing.
Good signs and bad signs, but 4 losses when 3 could have been wins, is not a sign of hope.

However, I can see where some think we can still win the next 2 or even 3 games. Seahawks on the road,, they aren't looking like a complete team, but D will still be tough. OL looks worse than NY's, but yet somehow they will fix that next week. Eagles, are up and down, they have a bye week, and wouldn't doubt they will play good when they come in here. TB, think we can win there. They been playing overall fairly well. Only hope there, they blew a 24 point lead.

But I will not go into these games thinking we should win them. I am usually, mostly always optimistic, still am, but I won't fool myself we will win any of these.
WIN A GAME and show us first, other than that, I can only hope they pull their heads out of their arse and play like a team.

Last week we had a bye to reset as fans and as a team. Well, nothing changed...I need another week...lol.......Well, I will take this week, go see my dad. He doesn't have internet, I cancelled my mobile internet device, as I haven't been using it.
So only will have my phone to keep up on things, unless one of his neighbors has an unprotected wi-fi I can pick up on...LOL...

There doesn't seem to be any panic on behalf of the coaching staff, they feel comfortable taking time off for field trips.
I suspect that the subset of teams that have lost 4 straight games and have made it into the playoffs is a relatively small one. That was a clown car performance yesterday, a Jason specialty.

wow, we are really reaching.

Reaching how? The Giants schedule is brutal the next month of the season. I didn't see anything from the Giants yesterday that say that they are in complete control because Eli is struggling and they will not get the breaks the Cowboys gave them.

I'm not sure I'd call playing Tampa Bay, Washington, and New Orleans a "brutal" schedule.

what ticks me off is that everyone on this team knew how important this game was- except for the ST.

Positive?? Really??

I feel like this season is jinked somehow. Injuries after injuries to various positions, unlucky football bounces, untimely breaks for the worse...... How do I look at this positively?
