Zoners,
I love the Cowboys and believe we have a Super Bowl team.
So why am I felling Depressed, you ask?
Tom Brady, Randy Moss
I really want us to beat this bunch.......my heart says we can BUT my damn brain is pissing me off!
What can I tell my brain?:bang2:
Help!
Last year we were 9-7. This year we are 9-1. That means in order to equal last year we would have to lose the rest of our games. That isn't happening.
In other words, this team is improving and still has room to improve more. I find that to be incredibly positive.
I knew during the off season that the Patriots were going to be out of this world good. You don't add 3 WRs who are better than what you had and a top notch OLB as well as a solid draft to an already solid team and not get better.
It isn't time to measure the Cowboys against the Patriots. Right now the first order of business is to win the division. A sweep would be a nice way to do that since in the NFCE that is very rare. We're 2 games from completing that sweep.
The second order of business is to secure home field advantage for the NFC. To that end I am more concerned right now about the Green Bay Packers. We actually play them in a couple of weeks and they are playing great football. In my mind it is pointless to worry about the Patriots in Februaury 3 months away when in 2 weeks we may be playing for who gets Home Field advantage in the NFC.
Finally I want to win playoff games to even get to the Super Bowl. It isn't a set in stone fact we are going. The playoff victory drought has gone on long enough. The fact of the matter is we will likely be facing some tough teams once we get there and looking past them to the Patriots is foolish.
I don't know if this will cheer you up or bring you out of your depression funk, but hopefully you will stop focusing on the Patriots. They aren't important at all right now.
