Nobody cares about regular season record.

I know, which is why I want Jason Garrett fired yesterday. Great regular season coach, horrible play-offs coach.

Batman does, apparently.

The Eagles too, they've been regular season champs more times than I can count but they've never been able to go all the way. Talk about shooting your load early.

This again? Philly has 3 Championships.
Go do some research, who has more playoff wins over the last 20 years?

You keep moving the goalposts. You try to praise Romo, who is a great FF QB, and that's it. Then when someone points out his complete lack of post season success you resort to he early 90's.

Romo is a great regular season QB *but* go look at his stats in every single play-off game he ever played. Aside from the 2009 game against Minnesota where our o-line couldn't block a pop warner team, he had good or great stats. Pretty much every team has more play-off wins than we do over the last 20 years, I place the blame for that on Jerry Jones. Man still doesn't know how to buy the groceries you need to cook a Super Bowl meal.

Doesn't matter. In your mind, and probably most Dallas fans' minds, he will be epic. In the more critical and discerning fans eye, not so much.
Again, it may not seem fair but that's just how QB's are judged.
Of course Dak had a pretty good stat line, and lost...so there could be trned here.

Actually most Cowboys fans hate Romo and blame him for the failures of the team past 2006. Pretty good? Dak had the best rookie season ever for a QB, which is why he was even (sort of) in the MVP conversation. Can't wait to see what he does next year after an off-season of lifting and film study.

And a 13-3 schedule.
And the rest of league getting a whole season's worth of film to dissect.
Should be interesting.

Can't wait to see Wentz actually get some legit offensive weapons.
He went 7-9 with literally nothing. Receivers were among the league leaders in dropped passes. Every RB was injured. OL was a patchwork mess thanks to Lane Johnsons being a moron!(5-1 with, 2-8 without)

Wentz is solid but he needs work, definitely needs more offensive help though. Lane Johnson wasn't the only reason you stumbled. AFC North, NFC North, NFC East, that's a tough schedule for any team.

5-1 with, the lone loss to Detroit was due to a Ryan Matthews fumble trying to ice the game. Dude is a stud, but a dummy for getting suspended twice. He helps stabilize the whole line as people don't have to play out of position.
Yeah both Wentz and Dak will need some work after getting thrown into the fire. Wentz only had a partial preseason game before the Bradford trade which happened a week before the season started. They both showed signed of being raw at various times this season.

Cowboys are not better than Falcons.

And Atlanta (and its QB) are every bit as hot as the Packers.

I believe the Packers are on an 8 game winning streak, are any other teams right now on an 8 game winning streak? Not that I'm aware of.

You lost to the only other good team in your division. Twice!

I blame that on the inexperience of Dak in the second one and bad play by our receivers in the first one. They won't be so lucky next time, I'm sure of it.

I'm just saying.... your argument that you had a better record in a better division dies the second you realize you lost to the only other good team in your division.
