Cowboys OVERRATED @ 4-0?

SouperMeister · 10-05-2007, 11:23 PM

Not overrated. Yes, their schedule has been weak so far, but let's get real here - the Cowboys have won all the games you would expect them to against weaker teams. The NFC is weak as a whole, so Dallas will have many games against weaker teams. The NE game will be a good barometer. If Dallas were to somehow win that game, I can't imagine any team in the NFC being able to beat them in the post-season.

And we're 2-1 against teams with a combined record of? Exactly...let's worry about our own team right now. What'd ya say?

Well I said it before and I still stand by it, I think there a bit overrated, but just because of the opponents they have faced, and the same goes for New England, it would be unfair to say the Cowboys are overrated without including the Patriots as there opponents have been quite weak also. I dont know what to make of Dallas yet, until they play a quality opponent, i stay on the side of overrated, but if they beat New England, then they are definately for real.

I'm torn on this thread, I thought the dallas D would be awesome & it looks like its improving.

On the other hand, I thought thier O would be better than avg. but not enough to win games the way it has.

As the season goes on I expect the D to play tough, especially if Newman gets healthy. I also expect something to go wrong on O, whether its TO being his old self, or an injury on the o line. They don't have much depth there, just like us.

They're definitely a top NFC team, but the whole conference is so uncertain that it's way too early to say who's the best. If you HAD to say so, I think Dallas would come up on top, but I expect something bad to happen to them & it may change their season.

Can you say CONSISTENCY?

NO!!!, I can, bums .You still got 11-12, games to go and you're already talking super bowl? ( I Don't think so).

I'm almost sick of saying this: when the Cowboys get their asses handed to them in the NE game all this Cowboy mania will seem pretty silly.

something like 3-9 for 3 games we played so far

its way to early to talk about contenders and pretenders. the huge difference between the boys and pats are the pats are flatout blowing their opponents out. But with that being said there is still alot of football yet to be played.

I'll check my math when you check your analysis.

You STILL failed to answer the question! If the Dallas opponents have the same crappy win loss record as the Patriots opponents, then why is Dallas over rated and New England is not?

According to your post that is precisely what you based your synopsis on.

The average point spread from all of the Dallas Cowboys wins this year is 19.75 points. That is not "blowing them out"?

i am not even going to debate this with you. The cowboys are not as good as the patriots and its that simple. Nothing more nothing less.

There are some football smart people out here. And those others are just wearing the burgandy and gold shades all day long. the Cowboys are a damn good team. Here is the difference between them and us. They beat the team they are suppose to, and not only do they beat them, they dominate them. We are not on their level, just as we are not on Indy, or the pats level. I am sick of seeing Skins fans who where blinders, that all is great in Redskin land. Open your eyes and see it for what it is. We have struggled to win the games we have, against bad if not awful teams, and lost to a team that quite frankly was 5 or 10 minutes away from completely giving up 3 games into the season. Dallas is gaining confidence with every freaking TD they put up on the board. And for the guy who said he agrees w/ Skip Bayless - I usually dont go off on a tangent about a writer, but I believe that guy is off his rocker from time to time. I have watched him several times and he is just out there with some of the crap he comes up with. I wish Greg Anthony would have punched him between the eyes when he had the chance,
anyway, Dallas is NOT overrated. So radio show guy...whoever you are....that is just ridiculous. The cowboys have won, keep winning, will probably go into the Pats game 5-0. Just as they should have, winning every game,convincingly,the first 5 weeks. The skins on the other hand, well we have seen our first 3 games, not a lot on convincing going on there!
