FINALLY AN OPINION THAT MAKES SOME SENSE. With all the Foxy-Loxy's out there, including MOST of the media, it seems like there is a general attitude that people WANT TO SEE THE COWBOYS FAIL!(not including the haters). "Have faith in your team,..." absolutely! The Dallas Cowboys, love 'em or hate 'em, are owned by a guy that has a fierce drive to win, couple this with the fact that he is smart, and financially able to procure what the team needs, and you get a team every year that has at least a chance to win it all.

People seem to give up on teams because of a 1 or 2 game stumble and start to think that their season is over because of a couple games. No team has ever had 100% good games all the time...take the "Undefeated" Patriots...stumbled to barely beat the 8-8 Eagles, 5-11 Ravens, and 10-6 Giants. You don't have to play your best ball, just better than your opponent. This team has a chemistry that hasn't been seem this good for close to a decade. You don't just "stumble" into a 13-3 record. Yes december did slow our momentum but if you were the coach with Playoff guarantees and a good running chance of making it to the big dance, would you run your hardest to every game and risk screwing a potential superbowl run? Teams play to win Lombardi Trophy at the end of it all. Undefeated records are nice bragging rights, but 2 of the first 3 undefeated season teams got knocked out in the first game in the post season. I think Coach Phillips has made great decisions and I think this year is the best shot that we've had in over a decade to make those post season dreams come true. We've got the easier of two conferences with a 1st round bye and total home field advantage. I don't know about anyone else's feelings, but if that doesn't give us a good leg up, then I don't know what will. Have faith in your team, just like in Buffalo and Detroit. Remember, we're a devasting last half team, so have your popcorn ready. =) I agree totally with these comments.
