Don't confuse negativity with realism. I've been a Cowboys fan since '85 so I have seen it all from this franchise. Obviously I am very stoked aboot their success but until they win another SB it means nothing really.

Right - because as "fans" we'd really rather see them at 1-9 - that way there are no expectations.

Everyone has their own opinion, I personally want them to go all the way to the Super Bowl & win & I hope they do. I'm perfectly happy being the guy that is walking behind the bandwagon right now sweeping up all the turds that fall off because after all is said & done I'll still be a Cowboys fan but I guarantee some won't if they don't make it to the end.

Yeah well a 9-1 team losing 6 straight ain't realistic

Wasn't referring to you personally, just an observation that I've witnessed many times over the last 30 years.

If certain players get hurt. It could happen.

Oh I know...just sayin'.

And so have I...it's all part of it.
I tell ya what - if they somehow hit a wall, the press and the media will explode.
I know right now they're just salivating at the thought!

Realistic? The extra point rule is causing all kinds of havoc in the League right now. Look @ Minnesota, they were the only undefeated team in the League up until a month or so ago. Now they struggling, look @ Pittsburgh & Baltimore struggling so on & so on. Hell I hope Dallas runs the table for the rest of the season. Just trying to keep perspective that's all. I am happy as sh*t that they are 9-1 but I'm still cautious.

Vikings probably have a championship caliber defense but few skill players and no offensive line so that 5-0 start was never going to continue. Pittsburgh has an amazing offense but a shaky defense so that wasn't surprising either.

Hindsight is 20/20 though, all I'm trying to say is temper our expectations. The NFL is a funny beast & nothing ends up being like it seems in the beginning. Carolina is purrrfect example of that.

Carolina is one of the best teams in the NFC, injury to their QB has slowed them down but they could still win that division. Would love to host them in the play-offs and beat them as payback for last year.

The Eagles receivers have dropped too many passes

I wouldn't call those guys receivers, they're more like droppers. Wentz better than Prescott? I doubt it, even if we switched the QBs right into the others' respective offenses.

Not sure who that would be besides Zeke but it ain't happening.

Time to watch survivor series

Thank u Tampa

That play on 4th down was pretty much as terrible as the one by Carson Palmer in the Minnesota game earlier.

Sure doesn't seem likely... just another L that should've been a W. Colts just have our number.

We spotted them 21 easy points too early. We played extremely well the 2nd half for the most part. But it wasn't enough.

I still believe next year is going to be our year with this division. And hopefully makes a statement.

We have the worst secondary in the league. It will be overhauled in the offseason. #1 priority by far. Then WR.
