Cowboys fans are some cocky sumbiches

Jameis looked good.... until. 

He pretty much shredded a good Patriots defense too. I say we actually keep the cowgirls to 10 this game. Shutting down the run is extremely important but with a 10 day layoff our team should be ready to play.

Cowboys are favored between 4 and 5 points. So the betting public is saying they're a 1-2 point favorite on a neutral field. This doesn't seem too far off from reality.

The panthers have faced weaker teams and an injured saints team and done exactly what they should do to them. Won easily.

The cowboys have also done exactly what they should. They contended against the Bucs, keeping that game close. They beat a very good chargers team and easily defeated a bad eagles team. 

I get them being 1-2 point favorites given strength of schedule discrepancies. I also think we've been undeperfoming due to low quality opponents and have not begun to peak offensively. I'm super excited to this game as it will be the first real test. Can our defense contain a great offense? Can our offense keep up with a great offense if the defense can't keep them under 30? Can't wait for this game to find out.

Mine was a niners fan down in Clemson sitting in front of me. Everytime Rice would make a play he'd stand up and sing the Rice o Roni jingle and laugh at all of us.

 

God I hated that phucking Jerry Rice and Steve Young.

just know that guy has not seen a superbowl win since even before that moment.

May be an image of 2 people, cat and text that says 'I'm watching the Cowboys in the Super Bowl this year! Not without a VCR... @NFL'

I blame you for the image of a guy in a trailer park in TX, wearing an Aikman jersey, surrounded by 90s memorabilia & a 200 lb console TV, eating cold hot dogs & Cheetos, searching for the can of bud lite that isn't flat.

I'm actually baffled at either set of fans who think this game will not be close.  I think we have a better team, but Dallas has a more experienced team.  In close games, that can matter.  And they are at home.

This is likely to be the first time our team will face some adversity this year.  Both in terms of injuries and in game.  We'll learn a lot.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
