To be honest, the NFL is in a sorry ass state now with only literally a few teams playing anything resembling decent football(GB, Dallas,NE, and INdy) The rest of the squads are a lot like us with injuries or schmucks not performing. IF we do beat Dallas this year, it will be in Fedex with the Boys resting Romo, TO, and the gang getting ready for the playoffs. It sucks rocks, but that is what it looks like. We just are in a sorry ass state as of now as a team. We seem to lose a starter every week now.

We beat the Eagles in week 2 on the road. That's a quality win as much as one can be.
Their defensive struggles aside, they showed the world what they could do offensively against us. They are a really good 4-5 and to be one of those 5...even if we didn't hold the lead this week, we played them tough twice.
We haven't seen a lot of quality teams this year, but Pats game aside, we brought it every time we did see one.
Of course, that's like 3 games in which we are 1-2, but that aint bad if you are going to eliminate easy competition from the equation. This team is miles above last year's team on the defensive side of the ball.
