Cowboys fans are some cocky sumbiches

this team has never even played down 3 points on the season though.   I think that might be the in game adversity he was referencing.   

How does Darnold play down 10 early for example?   Is he going to keep playing smart? We still haven't seen a lot with this group.   That's coaches too. 

I don't know about everyone else but I bet Darnold has lots of experience playing from behind.   And last year we surely had lots of experience so I am not sure that they haven't faced adversity in the NFL. Just not this year so far. I think they will keep pounding.  Especially the defense.

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. 

Very good?

Fans don't play the game of course.............and both times I've seen the Cowboys played they have played as a complete team..........

Panthers are going to have a hard hill to climb here against a team whose executing well on both sides of the ball.

Panthers injuries is making them near one dimensional on offense (where is the power running game?) with mostly short passing routes............

Defense might keep them in it for a while but I see Panthers losing by 17..............and I hate the Cowboys but still have to look at reality for what it is.......

    • You're equating wins with evolving, but It's a little more complex than that. This will be the new managment's third season. It will also be the third season where the Teppers have taken a step back. If you think that the only way to measure improvements due to seeming changes for the better is wins and losses after only two years--one being a playoff berth, "limping" in there or not, then perhaps you're being more emotional. By most analysts' measure, Dan Morgan has the Panthers moving in the right direction. He can only get us to where we need to be with the blessing and cooperation from the owners. He has said several times now, that they are easy to work with. Rhule, Reich and Fitterer did not say that. In fact, you could literally see the pressure put upon them by their countenance.  Bottom line: it has been reported that they have changed and everything that we've seen (and not seen) is indicative of that belief. We were a playoff team, and we had a good showing. With the moves that have been made this offseason, and last offseason to be honest, NFL types are expecting the Panthers to compete for the division the upcoming season, and that's even before the draft. This is all with a QB that is still a question mark.  Rome wasn't built in a day. David Tepper has seemed to internalize that, and now many fans need to appreciate the same. It could be argued that we didn't have any business winning the games we did in '24 or '25, much less make the playoffs this past season. A positive transition appears to be afoot. We are close to becoming a perennial contender, and that's thanks to a developing culture change that is being allowed to happen. This was not the case when the Teppers, particularly David, were fumbling around trying to figure out how to run an NFL franchise.   
    • Dude is a beast on ST. I like the emphasis on special teams with him and Simmons.
    • Yeah looks good on paper, but the proof is in the pudding
