Re: ESPNDallas: Cowboys Have Lowered The Bar
 

Good read SS.

Otherwise all I have to say is hahahahahaha.

Re: ESPNDallas: Cowboys Have Lowered The Bar
 

I hope Phil Simms is happy eating his crow. He was milking every excuse he could for them on national TV during the preseason game against the Texans. The way they were, and still are, shitting up their own bed has to be bad coaching.

I'm loving it.

Re: ESPNDallas: Cowboys Have Lowered The Bar
 

My biggest fear is Wade Phillips will be fired after the season. I'm hoping he'll stay with them for a long time. I got very scared last season after the opening round of the playoffs when they destroyed Philly, I thought they might have a legit shot at the SB. Then they shit the bed against Minny and my fears dissolved.

Funny how the closer the media is to Dallas, the more critical and realistic they are of them. Non-local media on the other hand is still singing their praise like they're 3 - 1.

Re: ESPNDallas: Cowboys Have Lowered The Bar
 

F the Cowboys. I hope they continue to rot.

And they keep whining about that penalty! It was a penalty when Witten gave the ball to Colombo, whether Colombo fell down or not. Yet moan moan moan.

Further, you'd think that they'd whine about poor kick coverage, an interception-prone QB, defensive backs burnt like toast, etc. Instead they whine about that call.

Re: ESPNDallas: Cowboys Have Lowered The Bar
 

It is certainly disturbing and.....indeed disheartening to learn of the fall of our once proud comrade and adversary in the East...........
AHAHAHAHAHAHA....sorry

Wow...can't believe Werder ran them down that much. I have a new level of respect for Ed. I always thought he was a Dallas shill. On a reflective note, how many read that and look at what Shanny is doing here and see some long term hope? No one can say that Shanny is accepting losing or that players feel comfortable with just getting by.

I do. The Redskins are the only team I in this area that I have hope will become a perennial contender in the very near future because accountability is being emphasized by Shanahan.

Re: Redskins
 

Along with Phillips, I hope they keep Barron for a long time also. I still can't believe how they gave that game to us. I'm still thanking Garrett and Barron to this very day!

Re: ESPNDallas: Cowboys Have Lowered The Bar
 

Very good article. I hope no one in the Dallas organization reads it!

[QUOTE]Cowboys management thinks it is unimportant which player starts as long as the better player is getting the ball the correct number of times. I disagree. [B]I think it's important for players to know they are going to get exactly what they earn. For the lesser players to be motivated to develop, they must believe devoutly they can compete on an even playing field against a player with a bigger paycheck and higher draft status.[/B][/QUOTE]
That actually sums up the DT vs AA debate here as well.

A side note - why is the Metrodome the nosiest place to play?
