After yesterday's game, I'm a little scared for the rest of the season. Winning by only one point, with 3 seconds on the clock, to the Miami Dolphins of all people.
It's not only the defense, but also the offense that needs to pick things up a little if we wanna go further.
Oh well, at least we won.
But you can't keep saying that because at some point all of those 1 point late FG wins are going to catch up with them. Sometimes a WIN is not a WIN no matter what the record says.

Dolphins should have won that game, but couldn't find the end zone if it was two inches away. When a team makes it down in scoring range 5 times and comes away with four field goals, they're probably going to lose. The cowboys are really lucky the dolphins reverted to their old selves on their last drive and turned all conservative and withdrew into their shell because the game would have been over if they had tried to get a first down or two.

I hate the way that defense looks, but I see more confidence with this year's team.
I agree, this is not the same team we had before Garrett took over. There's still some work to be done but there's been improvement in some areas this year, including playing with more confidence. Just look at the way that Robinson has stepped up in Austin's absence for example. Bryant and Murray have been doing well, even Romo has elevated his play somewhat. There are some good things going on with this team and they don't seem to give up when they make mistakes or fall behind like they used to. A confident team is always going to perform better so that's a huge difference IMO.
The last 3 weeks they have been HYPING up the cowboys. The Cowboys haven't lost since that Sunday night game against the Eagles.
This^^^^^^
To hear people like Hugh Douglas tell it the Cowboys were going to destroy the Dolphins in that game. I remember the ESPN pregame anchors before that Dolphins/Cowboys were on the Cowboys hype train hard. Hugh Douglas in particular was on the shaft like a cheap hooker.
all my points have been covered but one...PENALTIES.
The Cowboys look good to get in the playoffs, but to WIN in the playoffs, they must play smarter. I'm not sure what's going on with all the false starts, but they are drive killers!! Can't win in the playoffs like that...i hope in the remaining weeks, we can clean up our play and start building leads in the 1st half...
The Cowgirls WOULD have a chance IF they would utilize the key players to their potential. EVERY time the go the the play offs they LOSE!!! I'm tired of the kicker winning games for them? When the hell did football become all about a fg? I AM NOT A FAN!!! ugh... I'm really sorry that you believe that they are going all the way, or even have a chance.

ummm...read much? not sure who you're referring to, but there's absolutely NO talk of the COWBOYS going all the way.
and please, try being a little more original..."cowgirls" is over used.
one more thing, Bailey is a field goal kicking machine, and there shouldn't be any criticism hurled his way.
es todo...thanks for the playing!
