Aikman used to speak of the finality of the playoffs and how he loved that aspect of it. Playoffs aren't a given for us every year like they use to be. Injuries, roster turnover, etc. changes the landscape .


I like the humility here. A lot of my friends, who are Dallas Cowboys fans, have been spending the last few days talking trash to anyone and everyone within earshot. Makes me kind of want to root against the team, so they'll shut up.

I too talk trash with my coworkers but make no mistake they know I'm not overconfident. I take no hame lightly.

well....that's who you are.
Least for all the years I've shared football opinions with you.

this type of needless worries is why I'm glad you & I never shared the same dugout.

As with all football games...turnovers and brain farts can derail the best of um, but Dallas looks the part to me. Least for one more week they do. A win on Sunday makes this the most encouraging football season for me since Aikman was under center. No question I've enjoyed this Dallas Cowboy football season and see a team focused on the task at hand. Can't wait!!

I still feel exactly like you. Just enjoying this ride like no other. Since week 4 I've been enjoying this ride.

We protect with no turnovers and we win easy.

Pass early to set up the run Lions will stack the box early, Play action on the opening play. 1st quarter we need to gut them with the pass 2:1 then move to the run. Keep the pressure on Stafford and we will be fine

I agree with all your saying, however defensively, I feel the linebackers will be key to make all of that what you are saying, work. We MUST stop the run and control bush and bell coming out of the backfield.

I need a blowout. I want to go in GB riding high. All the Cowboy talking heads have us winning in a nail biter.

Injury front- It sounds like Fairley will miss and Worford has already been ruled out. For us- not looking good for Hitchens although he is still listed as ?? He hasnt practiced. McClain is ready. Free I think will be out again. Bad news on Crawford- supposedly he is sick.

Return to Dallas Cowboys
