Game in game out it's the same thing people putting to much stock in preseason games and complain how bad the players and coaches are.

For the knowledgeable fans know to take these Preseason games with a grain of salt, so to speak.

These games mean nothing! These games are NOT for the veterans, the vets have OTA's and training camp to get in a groove. These games are for the rookies and guys that are on the bubble for a roster spot.

It's amazing how stupid so become with threads that suggest that after a 13-3 season this team all the sudden can't play and the coaches can't coach.

I have no problem with having your opinion out there but...... so of the over the top threads whining about a game that means nothing.

We all need to have keep some prespective with the preseason games. All Cowboy fans should just be happy that we come out of these games without injury to our main guys.

Sorry for the vent but..... needed to be said.
 
Well, I'll take a crack at this.

We haven't seen our team play since January. We've read all offseason about our new acquisitions and look forward to seeing our established players play again.

We finally get to see them in action (yes, it's "practice" but you still want to see your team succeed) and they fall flat.

You get a little down.

But anyway....I agree...it drives you crazy to see guys post things like "our defense will suck this year".

Cool. Look, Hanah, Adam Jones, Miles Austin, Special Teams were all positive things that we were not sure of last week.

I see your point that we haven't seen the Cowboys play since last year but last week this offense went on an 8 play 54 yard and a TD against a very stout defense in the Chargers.

Look, I think the Cowboys players and coaches goals are the same NO INJURIES!!!! The Cowboys may also be a little tired after all the travel, no excuse but it's tough to travela nd play in the Mile High stadium.

Come the regular season this team will be ready.

I can explain this for you...

The ones freaking out are, without exception, idiots...

I hope that clears it up... :D
 
It's preseason and all, but I would like to see the team play a crisp, non-mistake riddled game considering we haven't played one since the Packer game last November.

That game was good for one half.

We let almost let it slip away in the second. We lost our nerve with their WRs.

The last complete game we played was our second gamevs the Giants.

4 Game losing streak. Forgot what it was like to see the Cowboys win a game. Same crap that killed us last season, still haunts this season, that is worrisome.

Why does everyone have to think and feel like you do?

Why are they not allowed to feel anyway they want and say whatever they want on a public forum?

Why do you feel the need to start a thread telling people to stop overreacting, what are we your kids?

YOU have no problem with people having their opinions out there?

Why would anyone give a **** IF you did have a problem with people having their opinion out there?

When did we vote this guy shop foreman?

:bang2:

Wow. You must really have a lot of fans in your life.

Let me guess your motto...

"people who don't think like me are all idiots"
 
Whats funny is that if the Cowboys had won these 2 games, people would be saying that BASED ON WHAT THEY SAW, the team is going to win the super bowl.

No matter what, there will always be fans who put too much stock into the pre-season games whether they win or lose.

Anybody who freaks out over a preseason game IS an idiot...

Really, I would have figured you for a sufficiently knowledgeable football fan to understand that... guess I was wrong...

And why exactly are you trying to censor HIM??

Could it be HYPOCRISY??

Seems that you're the champion of people expressing their opinions, unless you personally dislike those opinions...

Why are they idiots?

They saw their team play poorly in some areas and and they are expressing their opinions with fellow Cowboys fans.

If they are gonna have people like you calling them idiots they won't be posting much.

People like you give message boards a bad name.

for someone wanting to be a journalist - you got rice paper skin.
 
I would like to see less penalties, more pressure on defense, better run blocking, and finally better pass coverage. i feel we did a much better job on ST tonight....but we still have to keep improving in the area.

Lowber needs more reps. I wish we could have seen him in San Diego.

Yeah I censored him, lol.

I didn't even state an opinion in here or say anything about anyones opinions on the game itself.

Nice try though grumpy.

Who wants to be a journalist? lol.

Why do you always try that with me.

I am just a fan.

Your the one who thinks so highly of me.

And please, you couldn't care less what my opinion is on anything here on CZ because you are going in the opposite direction.

I love how you are always the first person on here to say everyone has an agenda, yet you show yours about me on a daily basis.
