How About Them Cowboys!

[Jd_Phillips_Fishin]

The Cowboys sure did look good tonight for the first 3 quarters. I never would have guessed it would be 31-3 going into the 4th.

[F14A-B]

Still watching? Go Saints!

[Jd_Phillips_Fishin]

I probabley jinxed em now its 17-31

[Jrob78]

It ain't over till it's over, especially with the Cowboys.

aint that the truth

[F14A-B]

Cowboys looked good tonight. Romo looked better.. It feels like another crap year for the saints.

[Jrob78]

Other than a little stretch in the 4th quarter, the Saints just never found their rhythm tonight.  I don't know what that fake punt was all about, that cost them any shot they had at getting back in the game.

[Jd_Phillips_Fishin]

I wish Dallas would play like this all the time... they have 1 or 2 games were they look unbeatable then they go back to their normal ways.

It was a good win. They're gonna have a really good line for the next half a decade or more. Their better than folks think and getting healthier. Romo is what he is, but is getting mentally and physically sharper each week. Interested to see what Demarcus Lawrence brings once he comes back. Defense could use his speed of the edge.

I agree with you.  Romo has finally started looking more like himself the last couple of weeks.  If Murray can stay healthy and they keep running the ball, it will keep some of the pressure off of Romo's shoulders.  I can't wait to see what Demarcus Lawrence brings when he comes back.  Spencer and Melton are getting healthy enough to play and Rolando McClain has been awesome.  I just hope his heart stays in the game, he can be a difference maker.  It's hard to be optimistic as a Cowboy's fan but so far so good.

I love having McClain out there. Guy tackles like a 500lb Octopus. Covers pretty decent for being close to 260 and is a bull on the blitz. Its early, and he has a past but it looks like they absolutely stole one. I heard an interview where he mentioned his appreciation for Jerry personally reaching out to him, and how he was motivated by it. Hes still young so maybe hes growing up.

Sterling Moore also had himself quite a game. Not sure whats up w/Mo yet, even if hes healthy I think Moore is a better player right now and deserves to be on the field, 1st round pick be darned.

We've been through it before and Lord knows the league seems to love to treat us to those "playoffs start in December" schedules. The Romo era has humbled me lol and I really try not to get too high and low anymore

[Jrob78]

They're saying Mo likely tore his ACL but won't know for sure until tomorrow's MRI.  He's been terrible though, Moore def deserves the chance to really show what he can do.  I just hope it doesn't cost them depth issues going forward.  

 

I'm right there with you.  I'm really happy they played well today but I won't be surprised if they get blown out next week.  I'm hoping that they are developing an identity with the run  but wonder if they will stick with it.  Years and years of mediocre play tends to keep your optimism at bay.  One game at a time but so far so good.

We'll see how good they are in a couple weeks?

What Ron really meant was.....Go Hawks!!

I had a few but they were intercepted. Lol

[aavery2]

If memory serves, the Cowboys have started the last 2 or 3 seasons off at 2-2 or close. They have finished each of those seasons at about 8 - 8. I hope that them getting back some key players on defense will be enough for them to make a deep run in the playoffs.

You drinking the Kool Aid on the 'boys already J? LOL

Any body remember when the Cowboys were Invinceable?  Yeah, I'm old.  Tom Landry and Roger Staubach!  Texas stadium had a hole in the roof so God could watch.

Yes Sir, I was a huge fan in those days, plus I really liked the Jimmy Johnson era too!!

Dan Reeves was the O coordinator, Dorsett, Pearson, are some names that come to mind.

Here's our new trophy case to hold all the awards for the past 17 years.

Nope, just a fan.  I like a win like anyone else.  Bottom line, Ain'ts didn't play well enough to win, Dallas did - that doesn't always happen.  The fake punt was a LOL moment.

Ah, so there are some old guys on here!  Do the names Lance Alworth and Speedy Duncan ring a bell with anyone?  And then there was John Hadl, the quaterback who had the announcers saying "he throws, he looks!"

 

In case anyone is confused I'm talking Chargers of the glory days.  I'm a Dallas fan by birth and a Charger fan by transplantation.
