So glad to see the Cowboys prove the "experts" wrong again and again...Every week, it's "They're facing the best defense, there is no way that they win in Green Bay, or Pittsburgh, or Minnesota", etc....LMAO

Not a Cowboy fan, but since they're going to be on tv anyways, they might as well be good and interesting.

This Cowboy team reminds me so much of 2007. Fans chests all pumped up talking SB....one thing is in the way though........ the NY GIANTS. Giants were an afterthought in 07 too at around this point in the year. Lets see how it turns out this time around.

I feel a lot better about the Cowboys chances because Dak has the ability to run when receivers are covered. He also doesn't force anything like Romo did in the past. Dak will either take a sack or throw the ball away before forcing a pass and throwing a INT.


And when a team has a QB like that they won't lose many games.

There are definite similarities but other than Jason Witten and Tony Romo (who is not a starter), i don't know of a single Cowboy player on the team today that was on the team back then.. Eli might be the only remaining Giant? Did JJP play for them that season? Even the head coaches have changed so i think there is enough differences that you can ignore history in this case. That doesn't mean the Giants wont put an end to the Cowboys winning streak or even snatch the division and home field from them.. that's still in play... but every time someone has pointed out the Cowboys past failures or inadequacies, they have answered those doubters..

All i know is, the Giants are next on the schedule and even though every game is big, this one is certainly the biggest they have played so far. Time for them to answer another question.

It reminds me nothing of the 2007 team. They are not as big headed, they are not led by a cupcake coach who never won a playoff game at that time, Jerry isn't running the show, and there is better leadership on this team. If the fans chests are all pumped up. So what. They are fans. What do you expect them to be like? Humble? There is not one fanbase that would be humble at 11-1.

This cowboys team also doesn't have a QB who forces passes into the endzone around a crowd of defenders leading to a interception.

No No No..In no way did I mean it reminds me of 2007 from a player perspective..I meant it from a standings and situation we are in only. The players are completely different , it has nothing to do with that.

I just have the same Cowboy fans today saying what they were saying in 2007. That's all. It's very similar. Cowboys hot , winning every game. Giants squeaking by, getting no respect.

All they have to do for me to be satisfied is win 1 playoff game and reach the NFC championship. That would make the season a success because that is something romo could never do.
