Re: Are we the Detroit Lions?
 

Dallas Cowboys wins by year, 1997 to present:

6,10,8,5,5,5,10,6,9,9,13. Four games below .500 in that span. Zero playoff wins.

Go JJ!

[quote=irish;414334]What makes the Cowboys better than the Skins? Since the Skins last Super Bowl win the Cowboys have won as many Super Bowls as the Skins have playoff appearances.[/quote]

The Cowboys run of the 90's is long over with in case you missed it. Not really relevant to today or even this decade.

He could of said the Eagles, and then there would have been a point. But the Cowboys have been every bit as pathetic as the Redskins over the last 12 years and then some.

[QUOTE=Redskins_P;414342]Since the Cowboys last Super Bowl appearance, they haven't even won a playoff game. Thats one less than the Redskins.[/QUOTE]

Hey if you think the Skins and Cowboys are comparable teams over the past 15 years thats fine with me. I happen to think you are wrong but you can have your opinion.

Ok then, why click on it? What gets old and ridiculous are the pretend thread police.

No one cares how good the Cowboys were between 15 and 12 years ago. Not me, not their fans, and not Jerry Jones. You shouldn't either.

It's OK to admit you are wrong here, really.

I was not trying to compare the Skins to the Cowboys. My point is that the Skins are closer to a bottom dweller than to the top.

Re: Are we the Detroit Lions?
 

15 years ago the Patriots were one of the worst franchises in all of sports. How is that relevant to today? Why do people always want to dig so far into the past when talking about the current state of different franchises?? How about a more realistic time frame? Maybe the last 5-7 years?

I have no idea (which is why I am asking) but how many games below .500 are the Skins since 1997?

And our point is the Cowboys aren't as close to the top as you think, not even close looking at recent years.

So what does that make you? Police of the thread police?

If you don't like it, why comment?

Re: Are we the Detroit Lions?
 

[quote=irish;414356]I have no idea (which is why I am asking) but how many games below .500 are the Skins since 1997?[/quote]Eleven.

Clearly the Skins are not the model NFL Franchise. But eleven games under is comprable to Dallas.

Because New England is 56 games over .500 in that timeframe.

Re: Are we the Detroit Lions?
 

We are not the Detroit Lions. No winning record since 2000, no playoffs since 1999, no playoff win since 1991, no Super Bowl titles, no League title since 1957.

And while the Redskins are not among the elite, they are not among the bottom dwellers either.

Next question.
