I'm feeling optimistic

[Sheik]

I'm looking forward to the VP debate more than I'm looking forward to the game this weekend.

If I can find something better to do, I'll probably skip the cowboy game for the first time in almost 10 years.

Fuck this team. I'm sick of the narrative.

Officially muffled.

I like tacos.

We're technically 3-2. A Bye is a win.

Still an idiot, I see.

Back to the topic at hand. I think we pull out a great stretch, only to flop towards the end of the regular season. We can't seem to keep momentum up when it matters. Other than '09 where we trounced the Eagles twice, to go on to get killed against Minnesota, of course.

And yet whom sent out a friend request? hmmmm ******.

I seriously hope I'm wrong but I think we are about to embark on a disastrous fall. This core, as much as I like their talent, has shown they do not handle adversity well, and with no real leadership to pull us up by our boot straps and guide us, I think we are in serious trouble. We may hang in a few games but I expect two or three games to end up like the 2010 Green Bay Sunday night debacle.

If we do, I hope we have the balls to blow it up.

Trade deadline is week 8. Let's deal Herschel Walker.

This doesn't feel like a collapsey team, it feels like an overmatched team. I think well meander our way to 8-8 alternating wins and losses all year.

 

[CowboysRMX]

I think Dallas can win 5-6 of the next 8. 8-4 or 7-5 after 12 wouldnt be bad after a brutal schedule. With the way the season is shaping up and teams that were supposed to be cupcakes are actually better. Its called Parity has arrived in the NFL. And its a good thing.

this is how i see it

wk 6 @ Raven loss 2-3
wk 7 @ Panthers win 3-3
wk 8 vs Giants win 4-3
wk 9 @ Falcons loss 4-4
wk 10 @ Eagles win 5-4
wk 11 vs Browns win 6-4
wk 12 vs Redskins win 7-4
wk 13 vs Eagles loss 7-5
wk 14 @ Bengals win 8-5
wk 15 vs Steelers win 9-5
wk 16 vs Saints win 10-5
wk 17 vs Redskins win 11-5

So we're going 9-2 over our last 11 games? Sweet.

I see the Cleveland game as the only sure win. We struggle against mobile QB's and we play Cam Netwon, Vick twice, and RG3 twice. We struggle with physical teams so not feeling good against Baltimore and Pittsburgh. At Atlanta on a Sunday night game doesn't bode well for us either. The Giants and Saints will make us match points and I just don't trust Garrett's playcalling. So I'm having a tough time seeing 6 more wins (to get 8-8).

They struggle against mobile QBs? Didnt Dallas keep the two mobile QBs in check they played? Freeman didnt do squat until the desperation drive. and Seattles QB did what? threw for 151 and ran for 27? thats not struggling against mobile QBs. I can agree wth struggling against physical teams and garretts playcalling. But seems like ur basing the mobile QB issue on past seasons. Now time will tell if they struggle against Vick but the mobile QBs they have played against have been non factors IMO. Seattle beat Dallas but i didnt see no mobile QB playing special teams or defense.

 

[Midswat]

Cam hasn't been running that much. Trying to be a pocket passer - a la Donovan McNabb.

He's really fricking up my fantasy team in the process. Don't let my lone first place 4-1 record fool you.

Freeman isn't a mobile QB.

Not all African American QB's are mobile, you racist!

he's mobile. especially after losing like 25 lbs. He just doesnt run much like Romo. Romo is very mobile but wont run for whatever reason

 

[superpunk]

Cam is actually running it at almost the exact same rate he did a year ago (8 attempts per game).

But he is looking like Vince Young 2.0. A better passer, but you can tell he does not like that the NFL is HARD.

He has lead feet. Looks like fucking Bledsoe in the pocket.
