What is the star now? A fallen piece of hardened plastic? The heaviest franchise in American sport? A false idol adored by many millions? The epitome of all that can be achieved with hard work? All that can be lost with too strong a sense of entitlement? A welcome coping mechanism, distracting from the real negativity on Earth? A bonding and separating agent?

In the 17 seasons from 1966-1982, the Cowboys went at least to the conference championship game 14 times. In the 16 seasons from 1996-2011, the Cowboys have won 2 wild card games.

I'm from AZ.
Don’t track a lot of college football, but I know through 80’s and 90’s AZ college prospects did not pan out well in pros. AZ only came into it’s own recently for such a resort atmosphere six months a year.

I would normally route for the NFC but...
I must say that I hope the Pats win this game because of Mr.Krafts wife and the way the team has rallied around him and dedicated this season to her. That my friends is class! May Mrs. Kraft RIP and I hope she is looking down from heaven watching this game with love and thanks to those whom she impacted during her life.

Long-time lurker
Hi, everyone. Just signed up after lurking in the shadows for quite some time. My motivation is simple: a life-long love of all things Dallas Cowboys. I was but a young child when we won 3 in 4 years in the early to mid 1990’s, but I still remember wearing my reversible Emmitt Smith jersey and delighting in all of the complaints from 49ers fans that they were hoping the Steelers would win in superbowl 30. While I am a relatively young fan, I have the utmost respect for those Cowboys I never had the privilege to see and am an avid Dallas Cowboys history buff. I enjoy the insight and knowledge of this community and consider this blog to be the best place on the planet to discuss all things Cowboys. Much love to all of you and I look forward to sharing my thoughts from time to time. GO ’BOYS!!!

Please comment all you want. As you already know, this is the best blog on the net and your opinion is welcome.
In the 17 seasons from 1966-1982, the Cowboys went at least to the conference championship game 14 times. In the 16 seasons from 1996-2011, the Cowboys have won 2 wild card games.

Refusing to believe
the empirical evidence as well as the evidence of your own eyes that goes contrary to your preconceived beliefs. By definition that is illogical. And you admit that nothing (i.e. overwhelming evidence to the contrary) will persuade you to go against your preconceived beliefs. So you are admitting to being illogical.

Well, then let me rephrase it. I'm well-acquainted with Manning's numbers. I've
watched many of his games. I’ve seen who played up and who played down in the games I watched. I’m well-acquainted with the opponents his team played. I’m well-acquainted with his team and players around him. The empirical evidence does not persuade me that he is a great QB. M’kay?
65% completion rate
9 TD to 1 Int. 103+ QB rating. All against three of the top five teams in the league this year. Multiple accurate passes that only four or five other QB’s can make on a consistent basis. Super Bowl MVP. I’m not sure you’re using the correct definition of empirical evidence.

Top five in what sense? Defense? Give me his numbers against
the one really good defense they faced in the playoffs.
I’m pretty smart, and I know the definition of empirical.
Oh, and since we're getting empirical, vs. the one truly strong
defense, he had an 82.3 rating, and the Giants won on two disastrous special teams plays by SF.
Or here, let me make it even clearer for you. Do I think Dumb Face is a good
QB? Yup. Do I think he’s on a par with Brady or Brees or his brother. No. I’ll buy top six or seven, sure. It’s going to take more than one good season on his part to persuade me otherwise. Still illogical? Tough.
So by your standards
there are only four great QB’s in the league? And if you think this was his only great season, go back and look at 2008 and 2009. He carried the 2009 team as much as he did this year.

Pretty much. 2008 they were one and done in the playoffs and
Manning’s rating for the year, at least the regular season was 86.4. Someone carried that team, but I’d venture to say the Giants D might have had something to do with it. Dunno, those numbers I didn’t look up. He was even pulled in one game, wasn’t he? 2009 they were 8-8. He did have the best rating of his career at 93pointsomething so he “carried” them to an even record. 2010, 31 TDs but 25 INTS and 5 fumbles, and an 85.3 rating. 10-6 and no playoffs. Don’t preach to me about your QB. I think he’s good. I don’t think he’s on the level of the others I named. You don’t like that, I can’t help it.
but are they tuff enuff to do it again... me thinks not

Eli says he is elite at the beginning of the season, and he backs it up by winning the super bowl.
Romo says he will win a super bowl, and he finishes 3rd in the nfc east.

this team has an uncanny ability
to turn it on very late. I don’t get it.
No other team in the nfl has done this. Wild card teams have made runs, but they haven’t vastly improved their play like the 2007 and 2011 Giants. Teams like the 2005 Steelers and 2011 Packers got hot early on in December, and were clearly major threats by the time the playoffs started. The 2006 Colts got Bob Sanders back and were instantly better in large part because of that, though I guess their play is similar to the 2011 Giants D.
having
Osi, Tuck and Bradshaw injured and coming back for the playoff and 3 weeks before it help
oh please
both of those guys played 8 games before the Giants december run (a few of them together) and the Giants defense was still godawful when they were on the field.
They didn’t just play, they played MUCH better than previously.
Osi and Tuck played 5 games together, between week 8 and 12
they totalled 2.5 sack those 2 games, Tuck only had .5 sacks, both of them were not healthy for those game

that was the 2007 Giants
they actually got a little unlucky – two PIs that were definitely close, but on replay pretty clearly PI weren’t called. That balances out their luck with the fumbles somewhat.
This team killed the Falcons, played pretty darn well against the Packers, and played the Pats to a virtual draw, though I think they did get quite lucky against SF.

We can do this in 2012
Upgrade the O-line, churn the bad players off the defensive roster, and we’re set.
Cowboys were 1 missed field goal away from putting the Giants out of the playoffs.

they key to winning the superbowl has generally been great qb play and defense, with some variation in terms of what % role each played in the success. Imo, we only have one of the two.

not always
I thought the Pats had really good secondary play, they closed fast and hit wrs hard. Their pass rush wasn’t all that, but if Brady hits welker late in the game, we’re talking about the Pats holding the Giants to 15 points.

I just don't see it that way. His receivers were the MVPs. He was fine, but they
were stellar. It’s too bad they won’t get the recognition he will.
the pass & catch to Manningham
both were beautiful. Same with many other throws.
The Pats secondary played very well today I thought. Eli had 3-5 passes there were through very tight holes, and a few more where he hit wrs at the only spot they could make the catch.
That wr core is elite though. They are really good. Nicks is a top tier #1 and I think at this point, Cowboys fans have to admit hes more consistently productive then anyone we have.
Eli has been great... So has Brady...
Eli’s TEAMS have beaten Brady’s TEAMS. Much like Bradshaw’s teams twice beat Staughbach’s teams… I ask you, was Bradshaw better than Staughbach? Or were maybe his teams better?

that was an AWFUL pass
there is no way Welker should have to turn for the ball like that in midair.
Welker probably should’ve caught it, but thats really not a hard throw to make, and Brady made it 10 times more difficult then it had to be.
You realize the safety would have picked it
Had Brady led Welker? That’s why Brady threw it to Welkers left shoulder. It was a very good throw and should have been caught. Welker had both hands on it
by BrickTop on Feb 5, 2012 10:18 PM CST via mobile up reply actions
If you can get your hands on it, you should catch it. Or at least, that's my
understanding of the conventional wisdom.
Safety would have picked it??
The safety was still quite a few feet from Welker, who really didn’t go very far to the left to attempt to catch it, he essentially spun in the air. I’m not saying Brady should’ve lobbed it, but gunning that in so your wr doesn’t need to do a 360 in the air is a standard nfl throw.
Should Welker have caught it? yes, but that doesn’t mean golden boy Brady is without blame. He throws that in stride, there is a decent chance that is a td.
Brady put it in the hole.
But IDK if it would have been picked if more to lateral side of field.

http://www.nytimes.com/2004/12/19/magazine/19MANNING.html?pagewanted=6&_r=1
When Eli Manning submitted his brain to the N.F.L. for inspection, he relaxed his pretense that nothing much was going on inside of it. The N.F.L. actually requires that prospects take an intelligence test — which is, of course, surprising to everyone outside the N.F.L…
The average test score for lawyers is 30 and for janitors is 15. The average test score for halfbacks, the lowest-scoring players, is 15, and for quarterbacks is 25. The head of scouting for the Giants, Jerry Reese, says, ‘’If a quarterback’s score comes in under 25, we worry; otherwise we don’t pay that much attention to it.‘’ Eli Manning scored a 39, putting him in the 99th percentile of last year’s two and a half million Wonderlic test takers. His brother Cooper (he was laughing as he spoke) said, ‘’I think the only guy who scored higher than Eli was a punter from Harvard who didn’t make a team.’’ (Actually, Pat McInally, the Harvard punter who scored a perfect 50, did make it on to the Cincinnati Bengals.)

They are one of the older groups, but they managed to do their jobs. If they manage to shore up that group, I don’t see us making much headway. As of now, they have the better coaching staff.

They deserve it – that team has been playing awesome football for the last 2 months. The only game they really needed some bounces was the 49ers game. I think 2007 was a fluke, but I will recognize this as a legit superbowl team. A great qb, very talented wrs, and a DL that when on its game (it really has been a rare occurance for them outside the superbowl runs) is tough to get by.
And I think every Cowboys fan out there knew what was going to happen when Brady missed his wr 30 yards downfield up 2 with a 3 minutes left. We’ve seen that story play out before. Sigh.

NY has an awesome pass rush, that’s why they won the super bowl. Cowboys lack a rush. Without Ware we would just be pathetic. We need a good rusher to replace Spencer, move Rat to DE, and get a Calais Campbell type 5 tech.

they also had much better secondary play down the stretch
they were good in this game too.
The Giants were straight up position by position a better defense over the last 6 weeks of their season than Dallas was in 2011. They also didn’t have anyone as bad on their D as Newman was on ours.
I agree though that even if we don’t necessarily have a position for him in 2012, stacking up on pass rushers and secondary talent like the Giants have can’t hurt.

This Superbowl was won in the trenches. Gotta have a good Line on both Offense and Defense plus a great QB to win the SB.
+ a LOT! This SB a great example of lines getting hot controlling productivity.

Playing Newman's advocate here,
but Hynoski ran over a DB or two in the Super Bowl, I noticed. Different technique, similar result.
The corner backs who go head-to-head with Hynoski (or any NFL fullback or tight end) and wrap him up are usually a) a little meatier than Newman, or b) extremely short-lived in the NFL, I suspect. Most DBs try to tackle the big guys just like this. It’s a calculated risk.
and then so did 31 other coaches and GMs

Also
Hakeem Nicks at this point needs to be recognized as an elite #1. Hes got it all.
And that wr core – Nicks/Cruz/Manningham…this is two years in a row we’ve seen elite wr cores help their teams to championships, and with so-so line play, although the Giants line really stepped it up outside the SF game.
Manningham made some incredibly clutch catches down the stretch.
Isn't he a free agent?

Their OL isn't that much better than ours
I think similar to Romo with our line or Brady, Eli moves in the pocket flawlessly and makes that line look a lot better than it is.
I think we could upgrade one position and see similar performance to the Giants’ performance in the playoffs.
Nicks or DeCastro.

by Blue Eyed Devil on Feb 5, 2012 9:58 PM CST up reply actions
hmmm
http://footballoutsiders.com/stats/ol
Giants were 28th in run blocking, 6th in pass protection. Their adjusted sack rate was only 1% different from ours, which is pretty insignificant.
That Giants line was nothing special.
Down the stretch, they were much better. According to Sturm, Dumb Face
was sacked 8 times in December to Romo’s 19. You’re trying to tell me that Dumb Face moves in the pocket so much better than Romo that the differential has nothing to do with the O lines?
no
but I am saying that over the course of the SEASON, the protection wasn’t vastly different. Romo went through about a month of the season untouched. Considering we were that bad over the last month, that means over the first 3 months we were among the very best in the nfl. yet our offense didn’t produce much. I’m not trying to put that at Romo’s feet, I’m just saying if you’re going to bring up December, lets remember that there were 3 months before that were the Giants had far worse protection than us.
Their protection wasn’t fantastic today, and was downright terrible in the 49ers game. While it sure helped them get by us and the Packers, their line was not the difference between them and the Pats or them and the 49ers. Which is the point I’m trying to make to BED.
And no, I’m not saying the different between those sack numbers is all Eli moving in the pocket.
Over the course of the season, our O line was among the best?
I beg to differ, since sacks don’t even tell the whole story. It was plenty ugly before December. Up until those last games, the protection was NOT consistently the best in the NFL if you consider the beating Romo took. Better yet, have you seen how many rushing TDs the Cowboys had this year? Five, and one was by Romo. You and I both know that Romo’s broken rib did not come on a sack, nor did that badly damaged hand. In some games, the O line was fine, like against the Rams, for example. Yippee. They looked okay against the Lions for a half (ditto the Jets game). There are three games. Remember the SF game, the second game of the season? Remember how the line played in the first Redskins game? How about the Miami game? Remember The Drive when Romo was pounded over and over? They were horrific, and all of that preceded December. And then they completely fell apart at a time when the Giants were coming together to make their run. We most definitely disagree about today. Manning wasn’t just moving around in the pocket flawlessly, as you say. There were a whole lot of plays where he was standing in there comfortably. I envied both of the O lines I saw today. Oh, and BTW, the Giants line wasn’t good against what was probably the best D in the league (SF), and old Eli wasn’t that good either. It took two special teams disasters from SF for the Giants to win.
Now, do I think the line or Manning were the main difference in the Giants run? No. Their defensive front was key, IMO.
Were they perfect? no
but lets not forget the perfect protection once Romo came back into the 49ers game that allowed us to retake the lead. No team had good protection against the 49ers this year (ask Eli), but we managed to put multiple drives together when it mattered most.
It was solid against the Jets. It was solid against the Lions for 3/4 of that game. It was solid against the Giants in the December game.
Not to mention, Romo played like a month with broken ribs and was virtually untouched. You mention how we shut out teams like the Rams and Seahawks? WEll the Giants did not. Romo would’ve been in a far worse position with broken ribs behind the Giants line during the season.
I'm not saying we're great
and again, I’m agreeing that we played like crap in december.
For much of this season though, the OL was actually pretty good. You could argue that the Pats, Giants (2nd game) and Eagles losses were in large part on the OL and I’d agree.
But I think you’d also have to admit they were flat out dominant in the Lions game, helping us to that huge lead, I think Romo only took one or two serious hits in the month after he broke his ribs, which was obviously very important. They also did a very solid job run blocking at that point, also critical. Once again, the Giants did not offer their qb that type of protection during any 4 game stretch of the regular season
I think we'll have to agree to disagree. The fact that they
were solid for 3/4 of the Lions game did not help an ailing QB when the chips were down. That third INT was on Romo for deciding to throw, but the reason it was an awful throw was because the O line was pushed back in his face. That’s my point. They could not be relied upon to to play four quarters any more than the D could. Yes, they played better once Romo came back vs. SF, but watch the highlights again. He was also hit more than once (it was bad enough that you can hear Brad Sham saying Romo was done and it was a bad decision to put him back in), and it’s hard to be grateful to them since they were the reason he broke the rib in the first place. I’ll say it again. They were awful vs. Philly. Twice. They were awful vs. Miami. They were awful vs. Arizona. They were awful vs. the Redskins in the first game. Romo, broken rib and all was scrambling around trying to recover Costa’s bad snaps. I’m not trying to be mean or unfair to these guys, but there’s a reason why we will see more changes on the O line and why Garrett and Jones have admitted that the O line experiment this season was a failure.
They did a good job blocking for Murray, but I credit Murray, given that the run game vanished again once he was out. And there again, I repeat, only five rushing TDs all year?
We don't have a pass rush near as good as the Giants.
There was some serious d being played tonite.
Dallas would have lost by 20 tonite to either team.
Jerry is the end all in Dallas.

+1--I got shouted down by a few "true" fans for my NFC East loyalty early on.
As soon as the Cowboys were out of it, I sucked it up and began cheering for the team that beat them. (Strange? Hey, Jason Witten did the same thing, apparently: http://www.sportsfanlive.com/web/article?action=viewArticle&articleId=11828946&team=nfl-dallas_cowboys&tid=msp) That’s because I’m not just a Cowboys fan. I’m a football fan.
Yeah, it sucks that the Giants beat us, but they beat everyone else when it mattered, too. And we played them well in at least one of our games. And they’re picking last in the Draft.
In fairness, Witten (and Ware) probably weren't "cheering" for the Giants right away,
if at all. But they picked them to win the Super Bowl. Some people here would consider that an act of perfidy.
You want a medal? The Pats beat us, too. So? I'm a Cowboys fan before all else,
and I don’t feel any obligation to “suck it up” and root for an arch-rival.
So don't root. Wallow, if you like.
If it’s so painful for you, don’t watch the Super Bowl. I like football. If the ‘Boys aren’t in it, I’m going to choose a team. I enjoyed the entire post-season—but then again, I’m not a member of the Cowboys organization. I’m just a fan. It’s just a game.
And my point was that the Giants, not the Pats, knocked us out of the playoffs. The Pats aren’t NFC East, so I have no loyalty to them. Also, Bellichick is a known cheater, and while other coaches have certainly cheated, I don’t know any who got caught, are still coaching, and are still highly-regarded. I have no reason to root for the Patriots. I might even have to quash any moral sense to do so. I’m glad they lost.
Point being: it’s not so shocking to pick or even cheer for the Giants (/against the Patriots) if the Cowboys are out. If that makes me less of a fan in the eyes of the self-appointed faithful here, I can dig it.
Why explain yourself
to people who don’t care what you think and won’t be swayed by your opinion? You’re not a True Fan and anything you write to explain yourself is merely an excuse that falls short.
I only show up to mock other posters, jeer at the writing here, and make strange complaints about internet culture.
BTW, let me repeat, I do NOT think you are less of a fan for rooting
for the Giants. I may not get it, but I wouldn’t make that judgement. I’m also not less of a fan for not rooting for the NFC East outside of the Cowboys.
Seriously?
If that makes me less of a fan in the eyes of the self-appointed faithful here, I can dig it.
How many “self-appointed” faithful questioned your fandom? Thousands? Or maybe one or two who actually care whom you cheer for? You’re quite the martyr. Better yet, those of us who rooted for the Pats lack your “moral sense”? Or is that not what you meant to imply?
See, I think rivalries are fun. The NFC East teams are hated rivals. I wouldn’t root for the Giants or the Redskins. I wouldn’t root for the Eagles with a fanbase that would cheer that a player is down and paralyzed. That offends my moral sense. See? It’s differences that make the world do ’round.
Awesome. Martyr?
No. That would be the guy who wallows in the fact that his team didn’t make the playoffs, then picks a fight with someone who just moves on. Which, by the way, I’m doing with this conversation and you in general. See ya.

in the last 15 years the only team to “emerge strong” has been the GIants.
The Eagles were a powerhouse in the early 2000s that somehow always came up short. They were probably a few plays (the carolina lineman falling on McNabb and breaking his ribs, the Jurevicious long td early in the Bucs game, any number of plays in the Cardinals game) from being a dynasty.

In the Free Agency era, the East has not really been all that great. I’d probably rank us over other divisions in terms of number of competitive teams per year, but the North (Packers and Bears), South (Bucs, Falcons in 98, Saints recently) and West (Rams in early 2000s, Seahawks, Cardinals) have been just as productive as our division in terms of SB represenation.

try and trade up for Ta’amu in the late 2nd or take Chandler Jones or M. Martin in the 3rd.
M. Brewster in the 4th
Ratliff/Lissemore
Ta’amu/Brent
Hatcher/Spencer
Ware/Lee/Carter/Spencer
Jenkins/M. Martin or FA/Sensabaugh/A.Ross or T. Thomas
Scandrick in the slot with 2nd rd CB coming in for Dime package.
Could always try and make a play for a Pass rushing upgrade @ SOLB or DE opposite Ratliff. If we could just get a good NT and DE I think our front 7 could be formidable.
Wouldn’t cost a boatload, think its realistic?
the good news...
Eli is probably a HOF QB. The kid is cool under pressure and is a pure killer in the 4th Q. He’s got 2 Super Bowls and who knows what’s next.
however, to this lay person’s eyes, Romo is more talented and more skilled than Eli. That’s cold comfort I know, but it’s an advantage the Cowboys have.

Eli won nothing until he did
I don’t know that we’re disagreeing, or… really I don’t know what your point is. Is it your point that because Romo never has won anything he never will? Because that’s absurd.
I only show up to mock other posters, jeer at the writing here, and make strange complaints about internet culture.
my point is how can u justify this:
Romo is more talented and more skilled than Eli
The proof is in the pudding. Eli’s got skins as in multiple.
by StarloverinWNC on Feb 5, 2012 10:59 PM CST up reply actions
Because Romo has HOF numbers
in terms of yards, completion %, TDs, etc… far above Eli.
Eli has won 2 super bowls but has inferior stats in comparison to Romo. So, as I said earlier, to this lay person’s eyes, Romo is more skilled. I don’t see how you don’t understand that.
Also, you do understand that Eli isn’t the Giant’s pass rush, right? Wins and QB acumen don’t necessarily coincide.

i think you mean Romo peak ranking cannot be as high as Eli right now but they are in the same class
i hate to do this but on a scaled down perspective
Eli- Elway Romo – Marino
both will get their props but Elway will always be considered better because he broke through in the same time period and got to the top even though Marino may be one of the best ever at his craft and has the numbers to back it up

thats a good analogy.
U guys aren’t giving ‘Dumbface’ enough credit. Without him, they don’t win the SB. Care to debate that?

I'm not trying to
objectively determine who is better than whom.
I’m observing that Romo appears to me to be a more skilled QB than Eli in terms of ability. If Romo > Eli, then the Cowboys have a fair shot at a Super Bowl championship just like the Giants.
Also, I’m not one to say that one player was better than another. Elway vs Marino and so forth… it’s a pointless argument.

point taken.
We CAN win a SB with Romo.
He needs some more help though.
by StarloverinWNC on Feb 5, 2012 11:09 PM CST up reply actions
yes my argument is always
put romo on your team and let your QB scramble for his life behind Dallas’ atrocious o-line

I'll repeat what someone else said earlier but Eli's TEAMS
won those rings. Eli wasn’t on the d-line, which played a big role in those wins. Going by your logic, Dilfer and Brad Johnson were better QBs than Dan Marino.

Your right. Eli didn’t get them those rings. He just managed the team a la Dilfer and Johnson.
Is that what you believe?
Imo there wasn’t a better QB in the Playoffs than Eli this year. He was THAT good. Hey I hate the guy too but he willed that team to the SB this year.
by StarloverinWNC on Feb 5, 2012 11:55 PM CST up reply actions
unless he played on the d-line, he was on thte team that won it
He was a good QB, but not HOF great. The point was that SB rings aren’t a good barometer of how good the QB is but how good the team is that he’s apart of.

I agree that Romo is more talented.
But I have never seen him as consistently clutch as Eli. I gained a lot of respect for both of them this season, actually. If Romo can get an O-line, one more solid DB, and a pass rush threat opposite DWare, we could go deep in the playoffs next year.
Eli good but not great
He can count on his receivers being where they are supposed to be , and catching the ball
On the NFL network post game only M Irvin was talking about his 3 receivers, and how the Pats receivers dropped passes negating the Pats chances.
It wasn’t only Welker. Branch on 2 occasions, and Hernandez on another all in the final minutes.
That and the Welker ( Miles Austin version 2 ) are what helped the Giants win.
I agree
I think its pretty clear that the Cowboys can win a SB, or at the very least make a couple playoff runs with Romo. I do agree he appears to be more talented, though I think we pretty severely underrate Eli’s pocket presence, which is Brady-like at this point imo. Guys get around the corner all the time and Eli always steps up at exactly the right moment. I also am beginning to question why so many other teams are successful through period of poor OL play while our offense grinds to a halt (looking at JG).
Eli was simply great in the clutch this year, and it seems like every time I watch him hes leading his team back from a 4th quarter deficit (especially against us). I don’t really know how I feel about a qb’s “clutchness” as a personal trait, but this year Eli made tons of plays in that situation and its the reason his team was near playoff position in week 15 as opposed to 5-9.
Hes a great qb and at this point I would argue with anyone who has him outside their top 7 or 8 (same level as Romo)- call him dumb face all you want, this was a pretty extraordinary year. He carried the team on his back the first 3 months, and when the team played up to his level (something Romo’s rarely experienced), they looked like a superbowl caliber team.
well now the Eli is HOF i can only look forward to the Romo bashing next year
cant take this aside from 2007 the last time i the Cowboys were legit contenders I was 6 years old.
I would like to see Dallas do anything of significance at some point in my life that i will be able to remember and not have to refresh my memory through NFL Films tapes
Eff it, the Romo/Ware window is short anyway, get Nicks, keep Laurent, get Calais or Finnegan or both. Spend that money, get that talent.
One year I want public perception of Dallas to not be overrated chokers

its so rough, aside from 07 since the 03 season i cant even purely root for them
I’ve perfected straight face lying when I brag about Dallas breaking through only to watch them fail another season in a new tale of heart-breaking fashion
the Campo days were fun because there were no expectations, no maximized levels of embarrassment, just play ball and hope to get better, not get scrutinized all season only to succumb to the critics predictions
I just want to be “convinced” that they are for real at some point when their backs are against the wall, not lose 4/5 after winning 5 in a row and blow a 12 point lead in 3 minutes that would have clinched the division against the eventual super bowl champs
Dallas just sparked the Giants title run for the second time this decade

After this,
I’m worried about how Jerry is gonna think about this…His squad had the Giants dead to rights, but fell apart. Dallas almost beat Tom Brady in Foxborough, but as became customary, the defense fell apart.
I’m concerned that Jerry thinks these current Cowboys are on the verge of a championship. Dallas is not on the same level as the Patriots or Giants as an organization, and it shows on the field.
Romo is a very good QB, but he can’t do it all. Brady, Eli, Rodgers, Peyton, Brees, all really good QB’s none won a championship by themselves. Defense came up huge for all of their Super Bowl runs, look it up.
With Dallas’ defense as it stands right now, the Cowboys wont sniff the Super Bowl until it is fixed, no matter how well Romo plays.

the front 4 of the Giants is what propelled that Team. We got Rat and Ware. If we switched to a 4-3, to be equal to the Giants…
Logic would dictate all we’d need is 1 more great player on that front 4 to be contenders?
True or False?

If the Cowboys hope to match the Giants they either need Mario Williams or Quinton Coples
by Jonathan Stern on Feb 6, 2012 2:50 AM CST up reply actions
I'm not worried
The Giants have had two successful playoff runs on the back of their D in large part.
The Giants draft secondary and pass rush talent heavily in the early rounds.
If Jerry does that, I would not complain.
Heck, this may even be a good thing – I was worried for a while there that we’d see an all offense, Pats-Packers SB where the defenses were atrocious, which could convince Jerry all we need is the next elite TE or WR.
I wish I was as young as you.
I’m only 46 and Jerry is 20 years older than me, but I am starting to fear that I may never see another Cowboys super bowl victory before I die.
In the 17 seasons from 1966-1982, the Cowboys went at least to the conference championship game 14 times. In the 16 seasons from 1996-2011, the Cowboys have won 2 wild card games.
yeah at this rate i may be lucky by the time i'm 50 to see Dallas make a conference championship game
then when i’m 70 see them make the super bowl
if i’m still alive at 90 they might win it then i will pop a jug of viagra hit the Brazilian beaches and be on my merry way to the pearly gates

One of the most UNDERWHELMING
Super Bowls I’ve seen in a while. I think we’ve been spoiled with the last 4-5 SBs, were all so epic. Not until the very last minute or so did things even really get interesting. It was also a really quick SB.
I feel like any one of 5 teams could have or should have been in this SB: New England, Giants, Baltimore, Green Bay, 49ers. I don’t think the Pats or Giant were really better than any of the other teams, and if they play their games over 10 out 10 times, don’t think the outcome would be the same.
Oh well, even the sun shines on a dog’s ass some days.

agreed...NY is good , but also VERY lucky, 3 fumbles...they recover 2 and get the other
turned over because of a penalty. Shame of the NFL for having a team with SEVEN loses be the “champion”
And being outscored in the regular season
Only team in history to win a SB after having more points scored against them than they scored in the regular season.
Yeah,
and that doesn’t even take into account all the luck and fumble recoveries they had leading up to and including the playoffs.

Heads up football. Play through the whistle. When you see that many fortuitous bounces, they are no longer fortuitous.
What is the star now? A fallen piece of hardened plastic? The heaviest franchise in American sport? A false idol adored by many millions? The epitome of all that can be achieved with hard work? All that can be lost with too strong a sense of entitlement? A welcome coping mechanism, distracting from the real negativity on Earth? A bonding and separating agent?

Only bitter a Cowboys fan could call that game underwhelming. The rest of the world is calling it one of the best ever, including Gil Brandt, FFS.

Ooooooohhhh
Well, if Gil Brandt said that, then it must be true! People always think the Super Bowl is the most exciting right after it happened. Just wait and see how people judge this one in a few years time (it doesn’t even compare to the 07 season/08 SB). Most everybody I have been talking to—fans of all different types of teams—share the sentiment.

HOW 'BOUT THEM COWBOYS!!!!
Can’t wait till you boys come up to visit the lombardi trophy next year and go home empty handed with another loss in hand, again!
We’ll all be thinking about you ’boys fans tomorrow during the parade down the canyon of heroes! eat it up!
HOW ’BOUT THEM COWBOYS!!!
Wow, class-less
All you have to do is look above to see MANY Cowboy fans giving your team respect and props, despite the fact that your QB is inferior to ours, your WR core is inferior to ours, your RB core… well you get the point. Your D-line won the Superbowl for you, be happy, savor it and please prepare for some intense divisional games next year. Don’t be a crappy winner.
