Not so fast…

As the 2011 NFL regular season wound down there appeared to be a shift in the NFL paradigm that a great Running game and a great Defense wins Championships.  This was backed up by the fact taht 4 of the 12 teams in the NFL Playoffs touted a much superior passing offense compared to their run offense [...]

yet another disappointing season!

The 2012 Dallas Cowboys were exactly what their final record says they were, average. An 8-8 middle of the road team. They beat the teams they were suppose to beat with the exception of the Cardinals game and they lost to the teams they were suppose to loose to with the exception of the 49ers [...]

Cowboys win on Thanksgiving, but it was not easy!

I think everyone knew coming into this game that it would be hard fought.  The Dolpins are simply a tough out despite their record. Tony Sparano has them playing as hard as any team is playing right now. Excuses aside, I feel the Cowboys didn’t play that well.  The good news is, the Cowboys can [...]

Cowboys sneak out of DC with 27-24 OT win!

It wasn’t easy nor was it always pretty but it never is in a game between the Dallas Cowboys and Washington Redskins.  But at the end of the day the Cowboys had won their 3rd straight game over the Redskins and their 3rd game in a row to improve their season record to 6-4 and [...]

Cowboys surge above .500 with 44-7 route of Buffalo.

The Dallas Cowboys are suddenly in unfamiliar territory. They are 1 games above .500. A place they have only been once in the past 2 seasons.  After the Cowboys trounced the Rams and reach .500 they laid an egg in Philly to drop 1 game below .500.  The Cowboys began a somewhat easier portion of their [...]

Cowboys rout Rams!

Trend? probably not. In the immortal words of Pacman Jones, “It’s the Rams, man!” Still, it is the NFL and the Cowboys have a tendancy to play it close regardless of the opponent so a 27 point (34-7) win was just what the fans were hoping for. The largest margin of victory under a Jason [...]

No Moral victories for the Cowboys!

From a team and coach standpoint, there are no moral victories in the NFL. Close doesn’t count, at least not in the NFL. I knew when I saw the 2011 Dallas Cowboys schedule, the 5th game vs the Pats in Foxboro was likely a loss. I even felt that way all the way up until [...]

Chris Cooley, public enemy #1

I get the trash talking players do on the field. I get the trash talking that fans do off the field but for the most part, when you listen or watch and interview with a current Professional athlete you typically hear nothing but respect from that player towards any other player, even players on a [...]

No, NO, NO!!!

I can see the Headlines now; “MILLIONS INJURED AS COWBOYs TONY ROMO BANDWAGON OVERTURNS!” Is this the last straw? Probably not. For many fans, it just might be and who can blame them. Tony Romo has now engineered two franchise record collapses in the first 4 games of the 2011 season. If your scratching your head [...]

An Ugly win is still a win!

I know it wasn’t pretty and sometimes thats ok. I can remember plenty of losses where the Cowboys played better than they did on Monday Night vs the Washington Redskins. In the end, winning trumps everything. An 18-16 win simply shows up in the ‘W’ column. The way the schedule is playing out, the Cowboys [...]
